Hotel Gran Derby

Located between the two main avenues in the city, Diagonal and Sarrià, easy to reach from the airport and the trade fair grounds and located in a lovely English-style stone building, this unique hotel is perfectly situated, where business and pleasure converge.

A red brick façade houses a hotel with splendid rooms as its most unique feature. All the rooms are split-levels or junior suites, with two clearly distinguishable spaces. In this way, our guests can host visitors, hold meetings or work in their rooms, while always having a private space to rest or enjoy the views of our secluded garden. They can also admire the collection of lithographs by Picasso, Dalí, Tàpies, Cuixart, Gordillo, Antonio Clavé, Subirats and Chillida, which is displayed throughout the hotel.

The hotel has 41 rooms, including 29 junior suites and 12 split-level rooms. All of the accommodation is fully-equipped with all the modern comforts and facilities that you would expect, including background music, clock/radio alarms, satellite TV with Canal Plus, connection points for faxes and modems and internet connection points offering broadband internet access.

Located on the upper part of the Diagonal Avenue and surrounded by other broad streets, this is the ideal base for going shopping in the prestigious and fashionable shopping malls including L'illa, one of the largest in Barcelona. The range of goods available is complemented by a succession of boutiques by the most prominent Spanish and international fashion designers.

Just a short stroll away is the Pedralbes monastery and palace, which houses the ceramics and decorative arts museums. The Bus Turístic, ideal for guests wishing to see the entire city in a short time, has a stop right next to the hotel, but the historic city centre is 15 minutes away across the most iconic Barcelona landscape, the Eixample district.
