Housed in a modernist building built in 1913, the HCC Regente is a modern hotel sitting 150 metres from the sculptures, paintings and library of the Antoni Tpies. Located in the upscale Eixample district, this historic hotel is three blocks from Gaud's La Pedrera and about two km (one mile) from the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art. The hotel's 79 guestrooms include contemporary furnishings, exercise bicycles, Matisse and Monet prints, minibars, satellite TV, and complimentary high speed Internet access.
The building has retained many of its original modernist features, including the stained glass entrance and bar window. Modern features include five flexible meeting rooms and wireless Internet access in all public areas. There is no charge for compatible laptops, otherwise adaptors are available for hire. The roof terrace is open during the summer months and features a bar, swimming pool, and solarium. The raised deck offers fantastic views of Barcelona, including the spires of La Sagrada Famlia, Montjuic, and the distant Tibidabo. The bar at end of the lobby has a modernist stained glass window and still has the original 1913 cash register behind the counter, though nowadays it sits next to a computer. A TV sits in the corner and a large cubist style mural depicts the city. Drinks and light snacks are served all day. Many of the city's most beautiful landmarks are a short distance from the hotel. Las Ramblas boulevard is one kilometre away and it is a twenty minute walk to the city's harbour, Port Vell. Barcelona Airport is 25 minutes drive and a distance of 13 kilometres. |
