Alexandra Barcelona Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton - luxury hotel in Barcelona

by Ingrid Berg, Hotel Researcher
Located on Carrer de Mallorca in Eixample, Hotel Alexandra is in the middle of Barcelona, moments away from the main shopping thoroughfare of Passeig de Gràcia and a 15-minute walk to the Gothic area of the city and Rambla Cataluña. The hotel is well connected with public transport, including metro and train services, which are a short stroll from the hotel entrance.

Alexandra Barcelona Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton, a masterpiece of design by Borrell Jover Arquitectura, seamlessly blends the charm of the past with the allure of the present. The hotel exudes a fresh Mediterranean vibe, evident in its rooms and common areas, many of which still showcase their original period features, such as ornate corniced ceilings and playful Catalan hydraulic floor tiles. The outdoor terrace, adorned with flowers, and the contemporary design elements, including Scandinavian furniture, oak floors, and walnut paneling, create a unique and inviting ambiance.

The hotel feels intimate but actually has 116 spacious rooms and suites, some of which have outdoor terraces with bathtubs like the King Junior Suite With Terrace. The rooms come in various categories and have a view out to the street or courtyard.



PATIO, the hotel's inviting outdoor space, is a gastronomic gem overseen by the talented chef and restaurant owner Enrique Valentí. From the delectable dishes of the in-house restaurant Solomillo, to a selection of fine cheeses and cold cuts from La Charcutería, there's something to satisfy every palate. And for those looking to unwind, the bar offers a wide range of cocktails.

The hotel's main restaurant is Solomillo, a meat-eaters' paradise centered around sirloin steak. You choose the weight, breed, cut, and sauces, and all are served with vegetables from the garden. 

The bar is high in Barcelona for luxury hotels, and Hotel Alexandra delivers the vibe. Its location couldn't be better for any trip to the city, and its fresh contemporary feel perfectly matches its Mediterranean roots.
