Hotel Arts Barcelona offers Skyline suites that frame the newly completed towers of the Sagrada Família | News
Celebrating the completion of one of the most highly anticipated milestones in Gaudí’s architectural vision – the central towers of the Sagrada Familia – Hotel Arts Barcelona invites guests to experience one of the city’s most extraordinary new vantage points, with stunning views of Antoni Gaudí’s masterpiece from the hotel’s redesigned Skyline Suites.
Recently redesigned in 2025 by internationally acclaimed architecture and design studio Meyer Davis, with architecture by GCA Architects, the 432 rooms and suites of Hotel Arts Barcelona have been transformed into a contemporary reflection of the city itself, vibrant, artistic and deeply connected to Barcelona’s unique interplay of nature, light and architecture. Inspired by the city’s iconic contrasts, the redesign introduces fresh shapes, rich textures and artisanal details throughout the building. The suites further elevate the experience through a refined palette of greenery inspired by the surrounding Tibidabo and Montjuïc mountains, creating refined sanctuaries between city and sea.
The Skyline Suites are among the hotel’s most coveted accommodations and now offer guests a front-row view of one of the defining cultural moments in Barcelona’s modern history: the completion of the central towers of the Sagrada Familia, reaching their maximum height and making it the tallest basilica in the world. Located on the corners of the building, the spacious open-plan suites reveal exceptional panoramas over the Mediterranean coast, the developing Poblenou or Montjuïc district, and the city’s most iconic monument rising above the skyline.
Hotel Arts Barcelona features 22 Skyline Suites, in addition to 6 additional Skyline Suites within the Club category, all sharing the same generous layout and extraordinary views. From one corner, guests can enjoy views of the Sagrada Família, Poblenou and the sea; from the other side a view of the Sagrada Família, Montjuïc and the horizon of the Mediterranean Sea.
Inside, each suite features spacious living areas surrounding sculptural chairs and circular rugs from Nani Marquina that create an inviting environment for relaxation or entertainment, complemented by sleekly integrated bars within the suites. Large marble bathrooms with deep soaking tubs are framed by translucent biombo-inspired panels that allow natural light to flow freely through the space, creating a fluid connection between the bedroom and bathroom.
The bed is placed next to large, wall-to-wall windows and deliberately oriented to maximize the panoramic views from the moment guests wake up, enhancing the feeling of floating above both the urban skyline and the Mediterranean Sea. Behind the sleeping area, integrated dressing and washbasin areas introduce an intimate living level, which balances openness with privacy and comfort.
For travelers looking for an even higher stay, The Club at Hotel Arts Barcelona redefines the luxury hotel experience through a discreet and highly personalized approach. Often described as a ‘hotel within a hotel’, the Club offers a dedicated concierge, a private lounge with 180-degree views of the Mediterranean Sea, bespoke culinary presentations and refreshments throughout the day, in addition to exclusive experiences and curated in-room amenities, designed to immerse guests in the very best of Barcelona.
The completion of the Tower of Jesus Christ marks a new chapter in Barcelona’s skyline, bringing the Sagrada Familia to its final height and making it the tallest basilica in the world. From the Skyline Suites of Hotel Arts Barcelona, guests can admire this landmark from a privileged vantage point, witnessing a unique dialogue between two icons of the Barcelona skyline who, although born in different eras, share the ability to define the silhouette and architectural character of the city.
Rates for the Skyline Suites start from £855 per night.
