Relais d'Orsá
$$$$, Tibidabo
Fodor's Review:
A neoclassical mansion built in 1900, this unique inn overlooking Barcelona has been lavishly decorated in French and Scandinavian provincial styles, along with antiques from Asia and Morocco. Restful trees and gardens surround the house, while a swimming pool under the pines has panoramic views out over Barcelona and the Mediterranean. Perched next to the sleepy hilltop village of Vallvidrera, this unusual refuge is a 10-minute drive up from Sarrià at the uphill edge of Barcelona (20-30 minutes from the port). The FCG train and the funicular can get you back to the hotel just as quickly until 1 AM on weekdays and all night on Friday and Saturday. Pros: superb views and a sense of intimacy in an unusual boutique hotel. Cons: well outside the city's upper edge overlooking Barcelona and a long taxi ride from the center of town.
