About the place

Faithful to the concept and style of Axel-design, comfortable, cosmopolitan atmosphere, and good value for Price- the Axel Hotel Barcelona has been completely renovated.

The 101 rooms combine the local "Modernista" touch with the warmth and elegance of the Mediterranean. Spaces at Axel Hotel Barcelona are an urban meeting point for the straight-friendly and trendy crowds in the city, offering a unique atmosphere with an environment full of design elements.

The main design concept, the harmonious combination of the past, the present, and the future, is displayed from the beautiful façade to the smallest details in the interior design. History and design are combined through materials inspired by the Barcelona Modernista style and contemporary European design.

Let your senses be wooed at our Sky Bars, at the rooftop terrace bar with great views of the Eixample area, or an interior space on the seventh floor plus terrace.

Sky Bar is another chic place to feel the cool grooves and enjoy the nightlife in Barcelona under the stars on summer nights.

After a hectic day or a stressful week, give yourself a pleasurable treat with an urban spa experience at our wellness and fitness space.
