A former industrial quarter, now filling with creative professionals and lively nightlife, is just the sort of place you’d expect this Shoreditch-born hotel group to pop up. The Hoxton, Poblenou was designed as a tribute to the eminent Spanish architect Ricardo Bofill, and as a result it’s stylistically quite distinct from the rest of the Hoxtons — but in a way that makes it a perfect fit for this ultra-hip Barcelona neighborhood. In its concept, of course, it’s consistent with the rest of the Hoxton family, and that’s a good thing: funky vintage-inspired rooms, a lively location, and plenty of desirable venues for dining and drinking. With 240 rooms it’s by no means small, and in fact there’s space for a whole new room category — the Homey rooms are practically apartments, with kitchenettes, dining tables, and room for up to four guests. Vibrant public spaces, too, are essential to any of the Hoxton brand’s hotels, and that’s perhaps even more true in Barcelona. Four Corners is, perhaps surprisingly, an Italian-American restaurant, serving Detroit-style pizza alongside more identifiably Mediterranean appetizers and mains; the rooftop, meanwhile, is home to Tope, a Mexican taqueria with a creative cocktail list.
