Tucked away in the heart of the romantic Gothic district of Barcelona is where old world meets new in the form of Hotel Neri. Housed in a 17th century mansion, the muted neutral interiors beautifully juxtapose the style and original features of the centuries-old building. Set right beside the city’s Cathedral, Hotel Neri is just a short distance from the bustling Las Ramblas, la Boqueria market, the Picasso museum, making it the perfect homebase to discover Barcelona. And with an inviting rooftop bar, we wouldn’t blame you for spending the day soaking in the panoramic views while enjoying tapas and drinks.
Top Tips
• Hotel Neri houses 22 rooms and suites as well as 6 serviced apartments. While all the rooms are gorgeously designed and equally well appointed, previous guests have recommended booking the Deluxe room with a Terrace. Not only does this room come with a private enclosed terrace (as the name would suggest), it even comes with your very own outdoor bath and shower. If you’re looking for more space or simply to up the ante however, we recommend booking the Neri Suite. This suite comes with a separate living area providing more space and a room with views to the Gothic quarter streets. Pro tip: Noise from adjacent Plaça Sant Filip Neri can be a problem, so light sleepers should stay clear of rooms overlooking the Square.
• If you or anyone you’re travelling with has mobility issues, it may be worth noting that Hotel Neri is located on a narrow pedestrian street. This makes it difficult for those who need to be dropped at the front door. That being said however, Hotel Neri has one room has been adapted for wheelchair users. Pro tip: if you require this room, let the hotel know in advance of your stay. They will also be able to make the necessary arrangements to ensure a smooth and easy arrival.
