City Hotels, Hotels

Kimpton Vividora Hotel Barcelona is the first opening in Spain for Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, IHG®’s boutique luxury brand. Located in the heart of the Ciutat Vella district (the old city), Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter is the city’s cultural and historical epicentre.

Featuring 156 guestrooms, 10 suites, three dynamic restaurants and bars, and a rooftop terrace and pool offering panoramic views of the city, Kimpton Vividora Hotel is within walking distance to some of the city’s most prominent landmarks. Guests can easily access Las Ramblas, La Barceloneta Beach, La Boqueria, Plaça Catalunya and the legendary culinary scene of Barcelona.

The new hotel offers Kimpton’s signature perks including a nightly hosted Social Hour where guests can bond over drinks, the brand’s industry-leading pet-friendly attitude, and an approachable luxury experience fuelled by a hotel team who champion heartfelt, human connections. Design-forward tokyobikes and Kimpton Vividora Hotel branded skateboards are available for guests to explore the city.

Inspired Design

Kimpton’s Creative Director and SVP of Design, Ave Bradley, collaborated with local interior design studio El Equipo Creativo to instil an authentic yet contemporary sense of Barcelona throughout the hotel. The striking design mixes terracotta colours, representing the urban landscape of Barcelona, with vibrant blues to channel the Mediterranean. Pantone’s 2020 Colour of the Year ‘Classic Blue’ is one of the main colours used in the rooms and in the restaurant, Fauna.

 

Each guestroom borrows inspiration from a stylish Barcelona apartment. The Mediterranean colour palette, natural wood, sleek marble, subtle graphic motifs and bold tiles give a nod to the city’s coastal setting. Each room features locally designed furniture and artwork, Vifa Bluetooth speakers and exclusive luxury bath amenities.
