"The five-star, hillside Gran Hotel La Florida re-creates the glory days of the 1950s... Sunday brunch on the terrace at L’Orangerie restaurant is one of the city’s great secrets."
Concierge
"For some, it's too far removed from Barcelona's bustle. For others, the setting is the draw—high atop a lush mountain 15 minutes outside the city center."
Fodor's
"Nonpareil views over Barcelona, water sculptures everywhere but in your bed, a superb restaurant (L'Orangerie), and design-conscious suites."

"Public areas are similarly dramatic, like the neo-colonial hall, lounge and bar, and the sleek Xina noodle bar, while other facilities include both outdoor and indoor pools, and a glam spa."
Michelin Guide
"A mix of the traditional and contemporary... guestrooms offering the very best amenities."
Frommer's
"Located right beside the upper stretch of La Rambla in an emblematic 19th-century building... One of the city's most deluxe new hotels."

"This high-end hotel's old-fashioned approach to hospitality is an antidote to the overdesigned swarm of boutiques that have colonized the city in recent years."
Insight Guides
"A smart, comfortable hotel with a suitably colonial air in its decor and indulgences."
