Hotel Majestic, hotel in Barcelona, Spain
Hotel Majestic is a five-star hotel on Passeig de Gràcia in the Dreta de l'Eixample neighborhood of Barcelona, Spain. The building has a neoclassical facade and houses several room categories, from standard rooms to penthouse suites with terraces, along with restaurants, a rooftop pool, and meeting spaces.
The hotel was founded in 1918 by Martín Casals under the name Hotel Majestic Inglaterra, making it the oldest hotel in Barcelona. In the 1970s, a second building on Carrer de Valencia was added and connected to the original structure, forming the property as it stands today.
The hotel's grand entrance on Passeig de Gràcia, with doormen in formal attire greeting guests on the front steps, reflects a tradition of European hospitality that has remained unchanged for generations. The neoclassical facade fits naturally into the boulevard's row of architectural landmarks and draws the eye of every passerby.
The hotel sits on Passeig de Gràcia, one of Barcelona's most central streets, and is a short walk from the metro station of the same name. Visitors arriving by car will find a public parking garage within a very short distance of the entrance.
The family that owns the hotel has spent decades assembling a collection of works by Catalan artists, including pieces by Tàpies and Miró, which are displayed throughout the interior. This collection was not put together for show but grew from a personal interest in Catalan art that the family has maintained across generations.
