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.
Rooms & Suites
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 mesmerizing 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-scentedbath 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.
Restaurants & Bars
Culinary artistry is at the heart of every SLS hotel, and Barcelona is no exception. Six unique restaurants and bars create a dazzling dining destination that is set to captivate guests and locals alike.
Lora
Created in partnership with Studio Paskin, Lora journeys through the towns that dot the Mediterranean coastline—drawing inspiration from the dishes that define each destination. At the heart of the kitchen, a large wood oven and coal-fired grill serves up a generous, celebratory menu that pays homage to the art of beautiful, seasonal ingredients; think charred flatbreads, slow-cooked meats, fresh-off-the-boat fish and impeccably spiced baked rice dishes all served family style. Designed by AvroKO, Lora’s aesthetic references its conceptual journey – drawing inspiration from the golden age of Beirut to the laid-back coastal vibes of Barcelona.
L’Anxova Divina
Set within a layered, playful space created by AvroKO and inspired by the iconic architecture of Antoni Gaudí, L’Anxova Divina is an informal tapas restaurant that spills out onto a sun-dappled, seafront terrace. The menu is a tangible celebration of Barcelona’s tapas culture, serving up delectable pinchos and small plates of briny anchovies, crispy croquetas, charred padrón peppers and tortillas.
Kyara (Opening Late May 2025)
A post-modern cocktail bar—infused with elements of perfumery and rooted in the classics—will introduce an innovative new concept to the city’s mixology scene. Developed in collaboration with award-winning mixologists and set within an immersive, otherworldly space designed by AvroKO, Kyara explores cocktails as aromatic compositions, crafted with precision and emotion.
Cosmico (Opening Summer 2025)
SLS Barcelona’s crowning glory, Cosmico is an immersive playground of big-serve cocktails, floating sushi boats and electrifying poolside beats – all set against breathtaking views of the city, marina and sea. Spanning one of the city’s largest rooftops, the day-to-night bar and club features two pools dotted with cabanas offering the ultimate in VIP access and a curated music program including weekend Sunset Sessions.
Deluxe
From morning to night, Deluxe transforms from a stylish café to a sleek lounge bar, serving craft beers, signature cocktails, and bold bites for chic post-work drinks and pre-dinner aperitivo. Conceived by Rockwell Group, the interiors reference the glowing radiance of the moon and its relation to the sea through an interplay of light and reflection refined using hammered metal, bronze details and textured, translucent light fixtures culminating in the crystal- and pearl-studded ‘flying’ chandelier by artist Geraldine Gonzalez.
Coral
Bringing the effortless, sun-kissed vibes of South Beach to Barcelona, Coral is an elevated pool bar serving up an exquisite menu of handcrafted cocktails and is reserved exclusively for SLS guests.
Resort Amenities
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.
Meetings, Events & Celebrations
Set across two floors and accessible via a private group entrance, SLS Barcelona’s extensive event spaces are as varied and flexible as they are fabulous, hosting everything from meetings to extravagant parties with an excellence, energy and artistry that defies the staid conventions of traditional event planning.
The 770sqm Gala Ballroom features draped red, textured walls and dramatic sky lanterns that flood the space with sunlight by day and usher in a canopy of stars by night. With a capacity of up to 600 people and an accessible car lift, the ballroom is primed for grand entrances and unforgettable soirées. Eight further dedicated Spotlight and Limelight event spaces and two decadent foyers informed by golden chandeliers, witty artwork including an interactive AI piece by Raman Djafari, and luxe detailing form a glamorous backdrop to any gathering, from presentations and workshops to product launches and gala dinners.
Location
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 neighborhood 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).
