Historic Building Accommodations

Duquesa de Cardona occupies a 16th-century building that once belonged to the Dukes of Cardona. The 64 rooms feature soundproof walls, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, minibars, and free tea and coffee facilities. Some rooms offer private balconies with views of Port Vell or Passeig de Colom. The Junior Suite measures 48 m² with double-glazed balconies facing the port, while Premium rooms at 33 m² accommodate up to 4 people with bathtubs and seating areas.

Mediterranean Dining Venues

Olentia Restaurant on the ground floor serves Mediterranean-inspired dishes with local seasonal products in a historic setting. La Terrassa del Duquesa on the rooftop offers the same cuisine with panoramic views of Port Vell and the Basílica de la Mercè dome. Breakfast buffet operates from 7:00 to 11:00 daily, featuring local products, juices, pastries, and à la carte dishes. The Sherry Bar functions as a winter dining space.

Rooftop Leisure Facilities

The sixth-floor rooftop features two plunge pools with sun decks overlooking Barcelona's seafront and the Basílica de la Mercè dome. Live music and DJ sessions occur Fridays (7-9 PM) and Sundays (5-7 PM). The third-floor gym includes three cross trainers, a treadmill, exercise bike, dumbbells, and multifunctional machines, open from 9:00 to 20:00. Yoga sessions with Casa Paz Studio are offered Sundays at 9:30 AM on the terrace.

Gothic Quarter Location

Located at Passeig de Colom 12 facing Port Vell, the hotel is steps from Las Ramblas, the Gothic Quarter's cathedral of St. Eulalia, Plaça del Rei, and Frederic Marés museum. Drassanes Metro Station (Line L3) is a 5-minute walk, connecting to Sants Station and Plaça Catalunya (Aerobus from airport). The Born Cultural Centre, Picasso Museum, and Santa Maria del Mar Basilica are within 1 km. Paid public parking is available at Moll de la Fusta opposite the hotel.

Event Services & Amenities

Four meeting rooms host events for 20-100 people: Sala Montcada (63 m², natural light), Sala Medinaceli (55 m²), Sala Olentia (39 m²), and Piano Room (33 m² with grand piano). La Terrassa del Duquesa (150 m²) accommodates rooftop events with port views. Services include high-speed WiFi throughout, luggage storage, room service, and daily cleaning. The hotel holds Biosphere Sustainable Lifestyle Certification with environmental management systems and eco-friendly toiletries.

“The Duquesa de Cardona sits squarely between the marina and the Gothic Quarter, and that location is everything. I like that the rooms are soundproofed, an essential amenity given its central location. From what I gather, this hotel is a five-star experience, particularly if you opt for the breakfast buffet.”
