The restaurant downstairs boasts high and curve ceilings, frescos on the walls, paintings and mirrors reminding us of the building’s history. The penthouse terrace on the top floor features a restaurant cocktail bar, a pool and a solarium from where you can enjoy unforgettable views over the port of Barcelona.
