Barcelona’s Ronda Sant Antoni has just opened Antiga Casa Buenavista, a 43-room, four-star boutique hotel that represents the culmination of a dream, that of the Andorran Molleví family. With this project, which has encountered many difficulties along the way, the Molleví family pays tribute to their ancestors, who opened the now defunct Buenavista restaurant a
century ago on the same property, which is now also being restored.

For the construction of the hotel on Ronda Sant Antoni, the firm TDB Arquitectura, led by
architect Juan Trias de Bes, has conceived a very welcoming establishment in which every
detail has been taken care of, with a strong design component, high-quality materials, and
where priority is given to the comfort of the guest. The original façade of the building and its graffiti have been maintained, while the interior is all new, although typical elements of
Barcelona architecture have been incorporated, such as the hydraulic floors and the highly
recognizable Catalan vaulted ceilings implemented thanks to prefabricated Flexbrick ceramic vaults delivered in big format concrete in collaboration with Arumí.

Emphasis has also been placed on the furniture, which alludes to Barcelona’s design thanks to the advice of the MINIM team. In parallel, Concepción Padilla has overseen the suggestive interior design and decoration of the restaurant Casa de Comidas Buenavista, which has also just opened.
