PB hotel design editorial

Facing the Passeig de Colom where the Gothic Quarter meets the waterfront, a nineteenth-century Eixample-style building with wrought-iron balconies and a salmon-washed facade was converted into Hotel Serras Barcelona — one of the city's more quietly considered boutique properties, with 28 rooms across five floors and a rooftop that frames Frank Gehry's copper fish sculpture and the Port Olímpic marina beyond. The conversion, completed in 2015, was overseen by architect Toni Arola, who balanced the building's classical bones against a contemporary interior programme without forcing the two into conflict. Inside, the rooms deploy a palette of oak-plank flooring, monochromatic hydraulic-tile headboards in geometric patterns, and mustard velvet accent chairs — the kind of carefully pitched palette that signals design literacy without demanding attention. Freestanding black stone soaking tubs anchor the larger suites, positioned to catch light from the iron-railed balconies overlooking the palm-lined promenade below. The ground-floor restaurant runs along floor-to-ceiling windows onto the street, furnished with distressed leather swivel chairs and lit by faceted brass pendant lamps on articulated wall arms — a warm, slightly industrial register that holds its own against the neighbourhood's more theatrical dining rooms. On the roof, a compact plunge pool sits within a timber-decked terrace, the port spreading out in every direction and Frank Gehry's gleaming fish catching the last of the evening light on the horizon.

"Hotel Serras was absolutely amazing! From the moment we walked into the door, the entire staff never failed to help us with every thing we needed. One of our favorite activities was breakfast every morning. The Breakfast Manager, Sandra, went above and beyond every morning to make sure we had everything we needed to have a fantastic day. She truly made us feel like part of her family. The entire staff was extremely helpful in getting everything we needed, which made our special vacation truly unforgettable! Not only is the hotel, beautiful, but also in a fantastic location. I really can’t say enough positive things about this hotel!"

"I’ve stayed at Serras Barcelona for business and with my family and have thoroughly enjoyed each stay. The hotel is lovely with insanely comfortable beds and high quality linens. The rooftop bar is a little piece of heaven at sunset, highly recommend on a sunny day! But the biggest wow factor comes from the thoughtful, professional, and warm hearted staff that really puts Serras ahead of all others in Barcelona. They pay close attention to their guests and ensure each has a wonderful stay. There are so many special little touches at Serras that truly make it a delightful stay each time. While all the staff were outstanding, I want to especially thank Sandra, the breakfast manager, for her kindness, outstanding service and making each morning a 5 star start to the day! If you are looking for a top notch customer experience, search no further."

"Having stayed at many hotels in Barcelona, there is one that consistently stands out above the rest, Serras Barcelona. From the moment you arrive, the front desk team makes you feel genuinely welcome, but what truly sets this hotel apart is the people. From offering thoughtful recommendations for the best tapas spots nearby to helping secure last minute reservations, attention and kindness never go unnoticed. The restaurant manager, Sandra, brings a level of care and warmth that makes the experience feel personal, almost like being welcomed into a home rather than a hotel. The rooms are amazing. They are quiet, exceptionally comfortable, and provide a perfect retreat after a busy day exploring the city. Sleep quality and attention to detail are outstanding. The hardest part of staying here is leaving. I am already looking forward to returning next year to reconnect and continue the journey. Serras Barcelona has become my favorite hotel in the city, and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a refined, heartfelt stay."

"We just spent 3 nights at Serras. It’s a lovely boutique hotel. But what makes it stand apart is the service. It’s absolutely exceptional. The entire staff, from the reception, to housekeeping, and Sandra in the restaurant are kind and warm and go out of their way at every moment… truly a memorable stay."
