With a rich history, fantastic decor, state of the art facilities, and unbeatable location, the Gran Hotel La Florida offers travelers the very best of urban resort living. Built in 1925 and ravaged in the Spanish Civil War, the hotel was rescued from abandonment in 2001 and restored by the architect Ramón Raventós. The restoration project sought to create an emblematic hotel for Barcelona while also respecting the hotel's original beauty and design. The result was a perfect blend of old and new. Over the course of its long history, the hotel has hosted Ernest Hemingway, James Stewart, Princess Fabiola, and the Prince of Belgium. More sinister characters such as Himmler have also spent a night under Gran Hotel La Florida's roof. This hotel is one of Barcelona's historic and cultural treasures, and, according to Conde Nast in May 2004, "an art noveau classic".
