Hotel
Hotel Arts Barcelona
A Ritz-Carlton tower hotel on the Port Olímpic seafront, with two outdoor pools, a fourth-floor spa and the two-Michelin-star Enoteca Paco Pérez.
A three-star boutique hotel in a Modernista building in Sant Antoni, near the neighbourhood market, with its own restaurant and cocktail bar.
Good to know
Hotel Market takes its name from the nearby Mercat de Sant Antoni, the restored 19th-century market at the heart of one of Barcelona's most sought-after neighbourhoods. The hotel occupies a Modernista building with contemporary interiors, and rooms range from singles to doubles with a balcony or terrace and suites.
The ground-floor Market Restaurant serves non-stop from lunchtime to evening, and there is a cocktail bar. Sant Antoni's cafés, vermouth bars and Sunday book market are all close, and the old town is around a kilometre away. It is a good-value choice for travellers who want to stay among locals rather than in the tourist core.
