Claris Hotel & Spa occupies a 19th-century palace close to Passeig de Gracia, bringing contemporary design and an extensive art collection into the building’s historic shell. Rooms combine dark timber, leather, sculptural furniture and archaeological pieces, with duplex suites adding a more dramatic sense of space. The rooftop terrace includes a pool, bar and restaurant above Barcelona’s Eixample grid, while the spa provides treatment rooms and a calmer indoor setting. Gaudi architecture, galleries and fashion houses are within easy walking distance. Artworks continue through the corridors and lobby rather than being confined to formal display areas.
