Located one block from the bustling Passeig de Gràcia, the late-night traffic can be noisy; book a room on the fifth or sixth floor for a quieter stay.
DK Eyewitness "Inside is a small museum of pre-Colombian art, some of which also decorates the suites. Guests get free admission to the Museu Egipci, run by the hotel owner."
Lonely Planet "Inside the fine 19th-century Palacio Verdura lurks one of the city's best-known designer digs."
Afar Magazine "Owned by notable art collector and Egyptologist Jordi Clos, Hotel Claris occupies Palacio Vedruna, an 18th-century palace that was remodeled in 1992." Full review
