Urban Zen minimalism
Set just a stone’s throw from the Passeig de Gracia, the mecca for shopper divas, the Hotel Diplomatic is well positioned for both business and pleasure. The Gothic quarter and Las Ramblas are within easy walking distance, past the many architectural wonders of Gaudi and his contemporaries. The Plaza Catalunya and the Palau de la Musica Catalana are a short distance away.
For many years, luxury hotel accommodation was marked by crystal and marble. Now it is all about good service, fine cuisine and simple natural furnishings in elegant, contemporary rooms. Guests will appreciate all of the above in the spacious yet unpretentious rooms of the Hotel AC Diplomatic. All the 211 rooms of this luxury Barcelona hotel offer natural wood-lined walls and flooring; simple modern art, often on a Japanese theme, and full soundproofing.
Minimalist décor is complemented by the bright white bed linen and matching white fluffy towels and bathrobes. Bathrooms have soft grey marble counters, set off with glass bowls and chrome fittings. Like many hotels in Barcelona, the Hotel AC Diplomatic is a one-stop shop with a fitness centre, business centre, 7 high-tech meeting rooms and a restaurant all within the confines of this above-average luxury hotel. Internet access, bed head reading lamps and air-conditioning make the bedrooms a comfortable place to relax or work when not enjoying the sites of this lovely city.
The Nicte restaurant offers lunches and dinner in tasteful surroundings with a choice of dishes from four different menus. Classic Dishes, New trends, Local Market Dishes or the Healthy Menu give the chefs a chance to show what they can produce, whilst guests benefit from the choice of fresh local produce that is available seasonally. Even those on a diet get someone else to count the calories for them with these menus!
For an urbane luxury hotel in a central location, the Hotel AC Diplomatic offers stylish well-priced accommodation for all travellers.
