Tucked away on the 42nd and 43rd floors of the hotel. 43 The Spa offers a luxury retreat that draws inspiration from the Mediterranean Sea below.

Hung within its tall glass and exposed steel façade, lies a world-class contemporary Catalan art collection that is as slick and striking as the hotel itself. Hotel Arts Barcelona’s collection includes sculptures, photographs, and paintings many of which were specially commissioned for their present home. The collection is an ode to Spanish culture, style, and modernity, and is spread throughout the hotel’s airy public spaces. It features work by leading contemporary abstract Catalan artists such as Albert Rafols-Casamada, Jose Manuel Broto, Luis Feito, Manolo Valdez and Xavier Corberó.
