DoubleTree by Hilton Opens in the Heart of Barcelona

The Alexandra Barcelona, a DoubleTree by Hilton, began welcoming guests with all the hallmarks of the award winning upscale hotel brand. Opening in the exclusive Paseo de Gracia area, the hotel offers the perfect base for romantic getaways, family holidays or business trips with convenient connections to all parts of the city.

The full-service hotel’s opening marks the Barcelona debut for the upscale DoubleTree by Hilton brand, and the property’s location on Calle Mallorca places it within walking distance of the celebrated Rambla de Catalunya, as well as famous icons such as Gaudi’s Casa Batllo and Casa Mila. The 116 guestroom hotel will continue to be managed by Diagonal Hotels, which operates a number of hotels in Barcelona, as part of an agreement with Hilton Worldwide.

Following a substantial renovation prior to opening, Alexandra Barcelona, a DoubleTree by Hilton, now includes the Da Luca, serving Italian cuisine with a focus on fresh, high quality ingredients. Dishes include authentic specialties from the Liguria region in North Western Italy. Guests wishing to unwind at the hotel can relax in the designated ‘wellbeing area’, which features a dry Finnish Sauna and a soothing massage room.

Included among the DoubleTree by Hilton brand exclusives that guests will enjoy is an industry-recognized service culture built around the idea of CARE, which stands for Create a Rewarding Experience for guests, team members and the community.

It begins with the iconic chocolate chip cookie presented to each guest upon arrival, and extends throughout every element of their stay. Additional amenities include complimentary internet access, available throughout all guest rooms and public areas and a well-appointed fitness center.

DoubleTree by Hilton is one of Europe’s fastest growing hotel brands, with 46 hotels across the continent, and a further 23 under development. Hilton Worldwide has eight hotels trading in Spain, including the Hilton Diagonal Mar Barcelona, Hilton Buenavista Toledo and the recently opened Hilton Garden Inn Seville.
