In a past life the new-old Hotel Florida was the favored retreat of celebrities and socialites, a secluded palace overlooking the city but seemingly a world apart in its perch on Mount Tibidabo.
Originally opened in 1925, then closed in the 1970s, the hotel reopened its doors to much fanfare in 2003 after a total remake that left only the mediterranean-style exterior looking as it had all along. Billed as the flagship of Barcelona’s luxury hotels, the Florida offers 70 immaculate rooms with tall arched windows overlooking the Pyre-nees and the Mediterranean, marble bathrooms with heated floors and flat-screen plasma TVs.
A private club hosts frequent live jazz performances and its restaurant, L’Orangerie, run by award-winning chef Gérard Ferry, shouldn’t have to wait long to earn its Michelin stars. The sparkling zero-edge indoor-outdoor swimming pool flows into lush gardens terraced down the side of the mountain.
The city of Barcelona Sprawling toward the sea far below is easily reached, but leaving the Hotel Florida behind for theday may prove more difficult.
