Sofia Bar & Tapas serves a unique blend of Mediterranean cuisine and tapas paired with signature cocktails that guests can enjoy from an exclusive terrace.

Guests will find coffee, pastries, fruit and salads at the boutique Philosophia, which boasts an open-air terrace overlooking Avenida Diagonal and the Alta Barcelona.

Meanwhile, Leña, a steakhouse led by renowned Michelin Chef Dani Garcia, is slated to open later this year.

Wellness seekers can kick back at the Oasis Spa by Natura Bissé to enjoy an 807-square-foot pool and waterfall, a Turkish steam area, a sauna, and private cabins for signature treatments in addition to an exclusive cabin area with its own hot tub, Turkish bath and sauna.

Other amenities include an outdoor pool equipped with a terrace, sunbeds, a pool bar and a restaurant and 22 meeting rooms with more than 35,000 square feet of event space.
