Description:
An ideal choice for shopaholics, the Albioni is situated halfway up the Portal de l'Angel, where you'll find shoulder-to-shoulder Spanish fashion stores like Zara and Mango, as well as El Corte Inglés (Spain's major department store) at one end, and boutiques and trinket shops at the other. Housed in a former palace dating back to 1876, it was converted into a hotel in 1998. It remains on Barcelona's artistic-heritage list and many of the original romantic and baroque features have been beautifully preserved. Not least impressive is the elegant marble lobby and stately interior courtyard, where the bar and reception area are located. All 74 of the plush bedrooms have polished wood floors, comfortable beds and en-suite marble bathrooms with tub/shower combos. Breakfast (though overpriced) is served in a wedding-style tent.
