Hotel Gaudi is a three-star hotel built on the basis of a historical building in 1964 and fully restored between 1986 and 1992 for the Barcelona Olympic Games. Now it is once again being renovated, with the focus this time being on reflecting modernista furniture and emphasising the original architecture of the building in which the hotel is sited. The hotel currently offers 33 renovated bedrooms and will continue to add more a rate of 15 per year until the renovations are completed.This hotel is set opposite the Palau Güell, designed by Antoni Gaudi, a stone’s throw from Barcelona’s famous Ramblas, with its newspaper and magazine kiosks, its birds and fish and its flower and plant stands. Also on the same street are the Liceu opera house, the Palau de la Virreina with its exhibitions, the Palau Moja, the Wax Museum and the Santa Monica Art Centre.The historical part of Hotel Gaudi has been completely renovated, faithfully restoring its original architectural elements, and thus a four-yoked vault has been refurbished, as has the stone arch that supports the old building over which the current walls were raised. From this period, the end of the nineteenth century, the polychrome barrel vaulting which graced the building’s main entrance has been revealed and restored. Furthermore, the hall has been given a modernista air, as is only fitting given the hotel’s name, and in it a trencadis broken tile pattern fountain in the style of the genius Gaudi has been installed, taking advantage of the excess tile remains from the works.
