At the core of the city lies the Gothic Quarter. Located between the Ramblas, a series of connected boulevards, going southeastward to the sea, and the Via Laietana, it is a close-packed maze of narrow streets punctuated by magnificent medieval buildings. The cathedral, episcopal palace, and churches bear witness to Barcelona’s importance as a religious centre. The government buildings—such as the Palace of the Generalitat a 14th–15th-century building with Baroque and Neoclassical facades, and the Royal Palace—attest to the city’s importance as an administrative capital.

Cathedrals, Tapas, Meditteranean Ambiance. Barcelona is a most cosmopolitan of cities! Madrid may be the capital, but Barcelona does not play second fiddle when it comes to food, wine, weather, and art! This Catelonia region of Spain is known for some of the finest foods and wines in Europe, as well as some of the most spectacular art and architecture.
While there are several versions of "tapas" in Spain, those of the Barcelona regions have been deemed to be the best. The local seafood is fantastic as are the wines. For the carnivores among us, the local meats are also quite special, with the jamon iberico and the jamon serrano topping the list. Top off these meals with the best reds and whites in western Europe, and you've got a perfect combination for fine dining at these dazzling bougainvillea-draped restaurants.

Hotel Colon is located in the heart of Barcelona. This wonderful hotel is located in the center of the pedestrian area of Barcelona, a few blocks away from Las Ramblas. The hotel sits across the square from the Cathedral of Barcelona, and its roof top spa, pool and bar offer commanding views of the cathedral, especially at night.
From the hotel, you are 15 minutes by foot to some of the most unique areas of the Gothic Quarter! A quick cab ride away is the Sagrada Familia, the amazing basilica designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi. While the exterior is quite unique, the interior, especially on a sun filled day, with light permeating the stained glass, is something that must be seen. Gaudi's influence is all over the city...unique, interesting, complex...all words that come to mind when describing Gaudi's work.
Be sure to reference our group in all correspondence with Hotel Colon. Reservations requests can be sent to comercial@hotelcolon.es
