SLS BARCELONA IS NOW OPEN

SLS Hotels & Residences proudly announces the opening of SLS Barcelona, an indulgent wonderland that is set to make a bold splash in one of Europe's most vibrant cities. Lavish design, culinary artistry and extraordinary experiences await guests from the moment they arrive via the undulating pink-neon runway entrance, a glamorous gateway to an urban resort that transcends anything the city has seen before. With an enviable waterfront setting at Port Fòrum, the 471-room hotel offers an unparalleled blend of opulent rooms and suites, six thrilling restaurant and bar concepts, three spectacular pools, and state-of-the-art event spaces, all framed by the glittering Mediterranean Sea.

Designed by internationally renowned design firm Rockwell Group, the 471 rooms and suites seamlessly combine modern opulence and playful touches. The unique architecture of the hotel, conceived by b720 Fermín Vázquez Arquitectos, allows each guestroom to have a private balcony or terrace, creating pristine perches from which to soak up the mesmerising spirit of Barcelona.

Thoughtfully designed and lavishly appointed, the Delight and Captivate guestrooms are ideally suited for overseas explorers, city breaks and couples' getaways. Luxurious interiors are informed by rich hues, mirrored glass and warm timber accents, while elements such as golden hand curtain holdbacks, and anthropomorphic portraits add a touch of whimsy. The stylish bathrooms serve up additional glamour with white marbled accents, Venetian mirrors and Florio-scented bath amenities by Ortigia. Set across seven configurations, including options for double or king-sized beds and more spacious outdoor terraces, a highlight is the Captivate King Pool Access, offering entry to the famed and lively SLS pool directly from the room's patio.

Setting the stage for a superlative experience, SLS Barcelona is home to a collection of suites which invite guests to say farewell to the everyday in a cloud of escapist extravagance. Equally perfect for longer stays or indulgent weekends, the suites include everything from Euphoria Apartments with separate dining areas and kitchenettes, to the one-and-only Celestial Suite, featuring a deliciously spacious 97sqm private rooftop terrace with breathtaking marina views.

Unmatched in scale or ambition in the city, SLS Barcelona offers the best of both worlds with a truly unique resort experience wrapped up in a dynamic urban setting. On the first floor, the infinity pool is surrounded by chic sun loungers and cabanas, and overlooks the marina, while two further pools are impeccably placed on the rooftop for guests to see and be seen. Those looking to make even more of a sartorial splash will be able to swim in style thanks to an exclusive collaboration between SLS and celebrity-favourite, Barcelona-based swimwear brand Caro Luna, which will launch this summer.

A light-filled, state-of-the-art gym and spin studio is open 24/7 and outfitted with all the equipment needed to stay on track while travelling, while complimentary hotel bikes provide a healthy way to explore the Catalan capital. A partnership with Edan Studios, the multi-concept fitness studio founded by Anna Lewandowska, will grant guests and visitors access to bespoke classes and wellness sessions held at the hotel. For those more inclined to peace-filled pleasure over pulse-raising pursuits, an extensive subterranean spa will open late 2025, offering unapologetic indulgence amid spectacular surroundings.

The resort is a waterfront wonderland, located just moments away from Parc del Fòrum, home to the world-renowned Primavera Sound festival, of which SLS Barcelona is the official hotel partner. Offering direct marina access, guests can charter catamarans and private boats from Port Fòrum, as well as hire jet skis for halcyon summer days spent on the water. A neighbourhood beach known only to locals and insiders is a five-minute stroll away, while the cultural landmarks and sights of Barcelona can be reached in twenty minutes by car (or boat, naturally).
