Motel One Barcelona-Ciutadella
The European-wide Motel One chain promises budget prices using sustainable, locally sourced design. Its Barcelona offering delivers both. In a nod to Parc del la Ciutadella just across the street, a nature motif runs through the open-plan lobby lounge and bar, with wall-size paintings of the park’s flora and monuments and planters filled with greenery. The design scheme—using local artists—continues in the guest rooms, which feature leafy murals above comfortable box-sprung beds. All rooms are the same size—just 172 square feet—and you’ll pay a bit more for those with park views. A lovely roof terrace overlooks the park with views stretching to the sea.
