H1898 Review

This elegant hotel overlooking the Rambla occupies a building with an illustrious history as the headquarters of the Compañia de Tabacos de Filipinas. Named for the fateful year when Spain was stripped of its final colonial possessions, the Philippines among them, the hotel's elegance pays homage to bygone imperial days as well as providing a symbol of the city's present opulence. Rooms are superbly equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and decorated in a maritime, South Seas idiom. The upper rooms with terraces on the side away from the Rambla have lovely views of Montjuïc, the Mediterranean, and the Collserola hills behind the city.
