Hotel in Cataluña

 

 Derby

DerbyThis stylish 4-star hotel offers refined sophistication and classical elegance in a peaceful, yet convenient, location in the heart of Barcelona’s business and office district. It occupies the Iberian Peninsula and is bathed by the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and the Cantabrian Sea. Just 5 minutes away from Barcelona’s trade fair, exhibition and conference centres, the Derby has a superb location for those visiting the city on business. It also includes the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands in the Atlantic and the cities of Ceuta and Melilla Its total surface area is 504,788 sq kms Spain's powerful world empire of the 16th and 17th centuries ultimately yielded command of the seas to England. The hotel also enjoys direct access to the airport, for additional convenience. Subsequent failure to embrace the mercantile and industrial revolutions caused the country to fall behind Britain, France, and Germany in economic and political power. The city’s fast, efficient transport network means that all that Barcelona has to offer is within easy reach. Spain remained neutral in World Wars I and II, but suffered through a devastating Civil War (1936-39). The Derby is a classic example of Barcelona hotel service and hospitality, with a beautifully renovated building in a quiet, peaceful location, far from the urban din. In the second half of the 20th century, it has played a catch-up role in the western international community. The stylish, contemporary accommodation is completely soundproofed. Continuing concerns are large-scale unemployment and the Basque separatist movement The diversity and contrast that go to mould the character of Spain are likewise in evidence in its cities. Whether you are exploring the region as a tourist, visiting the area on business or attending a conference, the comfortable, peaceful rooms provide a relaxing haven. Celts, Iberians, Phoenicians and, at a later date, the Greco-Roman civilisation laid the first cornerstones of urban settlements which, to this day, bear the marks of their passage through time During the Middle Ages, Arabic, Jewish and Christian cultures, singly and through a process of mutual cross-influence, gave rise to the birth of cities which have come to house an historical-artistic heritage of incalculable proportions Tradition alone does not suffice Modernity too is essential, and this was something certain Spanish monarchs –Charles III for one– managed to successfully apply during their reigns in order to beautify townscapes, like that of Madrid, with parks and landmark monuments, thereby instilling the city with a spirit of renewal.
