History
Nobu Hotel Barcelona is the Barcelona outpost of the Nobu Hotels brand and is currently operating in the Sants–Montjuïc district. The official hotel site states it has 259 rooms and emphasizes its rooftop, spa, and Nobu dining, but it does not give a clean opening-year statement on the pages we could access; widely cited coverage places its opening in 2019. The property is notable for its sky-high Nobu restaurant, rooftop pool, and BREEAM ES ‘Excellent’ sustainability certification, which the hotel says makes it Spain’s highest-rated BREEAM hotel to date. The official brand pages also position the hotel as a calm, refined base near Barcelona Sants and the city center.
The setting
Avinguda de Roma 2-4, beside Barcelona Sants, Sants-Montjuïc; a short walk to Plaça d'Espanya.
