The Art Suites
Exclusive, original and unique, the Art Suites arise in 2016 when the decision is made to expand the existing suites. Each suite is inspired by a discipline (painting, dance, architecture, literature, sculpture and music) through a character that is a reference in it and that boasts a close relationship with the hotel.
Suite Salvador Dalí
The walls of this wonderful suite house endless memories of the many different eccentricities of the eternal Salvador Dalí.
In this same suite, where he lived for long periods, he met up with famous models, turned himself into a work of art through his famous performances to the press and starred in the most surrealist anecdotes, some of which are unforgettable: such as when he took a stuffed white horse up to the suite as a gift for his wife Gala or the day he was photographed with models in the Roman bath. The Dalí suite is unique.
A trip to the past
The Dalí suite evokes the sophisticated, prestigious atmosphere of the hotel’s beginnings. Handmade rugs, lovingly-restored antiques, nineteenth-century desks and chairs, fabrics made from seventeenth-century Italian damask patterns, ceiling lamps and wall lamps made as true replicas of the originals, a wonderful main bed with canopy and a chinoiserie-style wardrobe, as well as the authentic Roman bath with mosaics that Salvador Dalí and his wife Gala used, among many other noteworthy pieces. A very special suite, in which hours can be spent observing every detail.
Personal details
The suite is home to exclusive memories from the period in which Salvador Dalí lived at the hotel, such as the famous photograph of the time he took the stuffed white horse up the stairs, which was seen around the world.
Miro Suite
Joan Miró was one of the most influential artists of the 20th century and of surrealism. More famous for his paintings, his artwork also encompassed other disciplines, such as pottery, engraving, lithography and sculpture, with a very personal style that reflected his concerns.
In the early twentieth century, only a few years before the doors of the Ritz opened, he joined the Barcelona School of Fine Arts. It was here that he first came into contact with sculpture and was enticed by it over the years until his own sculptural work began to gain significant importance in the sixties.
The Golden Suite
Colour is basic in Joan Miró’s work, especially the use of primary colours and, although bronze is very important in sculpture, this essence is reflected in all of his work.
The colour scheme chosen for this suite includes mustard yellow, a warm, bright colour that is happy and optimistic, combined with lead grey and high-quality dark woods. The Joan Miró suite has classic, stately lines, with French Louis XVI-style furniture and delicate fabrics.
Lamps and wall lights have been reproduced as an exact replica of the hotel’s original lighting, and the Roman bath with its original mosaics on the walls and floor remains in place.
THE ROOFTOP GARDEN WILL BE OPEN: (Thursdays from 5.00pm to 9.30pm – Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 1.30pm to 9.30pm)
Inspired by the romantic garden at the palace of Francesc Cambó (famous politician from the early 20th century) and by the paintings by the modernist artist Ramon Casas, this is possibly the largest, most exclusive roof garden in Barcelona, covering an area of 1,500 m2.
A place filled with secret corners, fragrances and colours, and inspired by the Barcelona of the 20s in all its splendour.
