“Carefully designed by Barcelona architect Juli Capella, the contrasting monochromatic façade is designed to resemble a piano keyboard; a theme which flows throughout the stylish interior.”

Investment Highlights

Striking the Right Chord
Located right on Avinguda Diagonal next to the famous Torre Agbar Tower, Hotel Diagonal Barcelona benefits from incredibly strong visibility. The Hotel features in nearly every picture taken of the Torre Agbar Tower, which makes the Property ever more interesting from a branding point of view.
The Major Key
Hotel Diagonal Barcelona benefits from outstanding asset quality and is very well-suited to meet the standards of a wide range of different brands. The Hotel was purpose-built in 2004 and features 240 keys, attractive F&B and meeting facilities and a stunning rooftop pool deck immensely popular with the local crowd and international visitors alike.
Amplified Trading Growth
Year-to-date RevPAR growth in Barcelona totalled 11.3% year-on-year in 2015, and is expected to continue this upward trend in 2016. In addition, local economic development in the @22 district is thriving with 105.5% growth in companies in the past 15 years, whereas Spain on the whole has become one of Europe’s fastest growing economies.
Perfect Harmony between High Barriers to Entry and Scarcity of Product
Barcelona is one of the world’s leading tourist, economic, trade fair and cultural centres. Hotels in Barcelona are very tightly held and the recent moratorium on new hotel licenses will only add to the scarcity of available product.
