Fonda Europa, Historic restaurant and hotel in central Granollers, Spain
Fonda Europa is a restaurant and hotel housed in a centuries-old building in the historic center of Granollers with 37 modern rooms available to guests. The establishment serves traditional Catalan cuisine in its restaurant spaces.
Founded in 1771, the property developed into a central gathering place for travelers and locals in the heart of Granollers. This role as a meeting point for people from different backgrounds shaped its reputation through the centuries.
The kitchen keeps alive regional Catalan cooking through carefully prepared dishes including rice specialties, offal recipes, and traditional casseroles that many guests continue to appreciate. These meals reflect the eating habits and food traditions of the surrounding area.
The property is easily accessible throughout the day and navigation to the room areas and restaurant is straightforward once inside. The central location means visitors can conveniently reach the place from the historic downtown area.
The first-floor rooms were modernized by architects Ricard Balcells and Mariano Bordas and received the FAD Award for interior design in 1993. This renovation demonstrated how the historic building was reshaped with contemporary comfort.
