| Carefully manicured gardens are an oasis of peace in Rey Juan Carlos I... |
|
To experience Rey Juan Carlos I Hotel means to be in the city and at the same time to enjoy nature, to entertain oneself in the spaces and volumes, and to do so with the added pleasure of the Mediterranean light, as well as to share modernity and avant-garde design in the forms and features with the classicism of its services.
This modern tower hotel was raised on the site of what was once a sprawling farm. All that remains of it are the hotel gardens, which are a century old - dating to a time when Barcelona was a much smaller and distant city. The carefully manicured gardens are an oasis of peace in a hectic city and open exclusively to hotel guests. |

Rey Juan Carlos I Hotel soars above century-old gardens just west of the business and shopping end of Avenida Diagonal, one km (one-half mile) from the Royal Palace’s museums. |

* Café Polo:
Buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner is served in this spacious ground floor restaurant. Splitting the restaurant in two is the long and extensive buffet table with a range of national and international cuisine made in the show-kitchen. Renovated and expanded in 2003, the restaurant is divided into several different areas. Some have simple timber chairs and check tablecloths, others more elegantly laid out. Bright lighting and hardwood floors create a cheery atmosphere. Cuisine themes change daily, ranging from Catalan through Basque to seafood.
* The Garden:
Set in the exotic gardens, this restaurant offers modern Mediterranean dishes all year round.
* La Terraza:
A busy snack bar and café on the mezzanine level, La Terraza with its glass walls allows guests to look down into the hotel atrium while sipping a coffee at the small round tables.
* Aris Bar:
The hotel's nightlife takes place in this intimate bar with it Scottish styling. Low lighting, decor with red tinges and a hint of cocktail bars of old, with prints and other items on the walls. Cocktails and mixed drinks are the specialty of the house.
* The Royal Fitness is a sprawling health spa that spreads out in the gardens and below ground at the foot of the hotel. It offers a range of exercise bicycles, other machines and weights, and is attended by training staff. In the same complex are two heated indoor pools and a 'wet zone' made up of jetted tubs, saunas, steam baths, aroma cabins, and hydro-massage showers. Guests can also enjoy a massage. Outside is a further heated pool, which is open year round (unlike the unheated outdoor pools elsewhere in the hotel grounds).
* Around the ground and mezzanine floors of the hotels and facing into the stunning sight of the atrium are grouped the hotel's meeting and banquet rooms, which with their sliding walls can be grouped together to accommodate groups of varying sizes. |
