On Barcelona's most stylish boulevard is this near-perfect place to stay. The building is part Eixample town house and part modern extension; pastels and Mediterranean hues warm each room and the furnishings are all state-of-the-art contemporary. The superb restaurant ($$$$), Fermin Puig's internationally acclaimed Drolma, is a destination in itself. Pros: Perfectly situated in the center of the Eixample, good balance between technology and charm, one of Barcelona's best restaurants. Cons: Faces one of the city's widest, brightest, noisiest, most commercial thoroughfares.
