Kimpton Vividora Hotel, Spain

• Barcelona’s best: From five-star luxury to a stellar location, you can have it all at Kimpton Vividora Hotel. Step into your swanky city stay, where Spanish influences meet modern style, and the eclectic hum of the historic Gothic Quarter is just outside your door. Wander the medieval streets between trendy bars, museums and street vendors before heading back for a refreshing dip in the rooftop pool. As the sun sets, order a cocktail to sip while soaking up the superb city views, the enchanting silhouette of the Sagrada Familia in the background.

• Mediterranean flavours: If you’re getting peckish, there’s plenty to delight your palate here. On the rooftop terrace, you can pick a shady spot to enjoy tasty and traditional tapas for lunch, or seat yourself at the sleek bar for a pre-dinner drink under a starry sky. Head to the Fauna Restaurant for classic home-cooked favourites and a selection of Spanish wines, or enjoy a taste of Catalonia in the bustling café, serving local cheeses and charcuterie during the day, and artisanal vermouth and cocktails in the evening.

• Casa of comforts: After a day of exploring the vibrant city or strolling the Barcelona beaches, you’ll be ready to return to your chic and comfortable room. An earthy palette of warm and inviting colours welcomes you back, with organic shapes and modern art bringing a touch of contemporary style. You can also expect plenty of little luxuries and all the necessary mod cons, like a smart TV, Bluetooth speaker, in-room yoga mat and bespoke bath products from local makers.
