H1898 Review
Overlooking the Rambla, this imposing mansion 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 outposts (the Philippines among them), the hotel's elegance imagines bygone imperial days. Rooms are equipped with free Wi-Fi and other modern touches while decorated with maritime touches like nautical stripes and bamboo. 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.
