The Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower reopens with almost all rooms occupied

The pandemic made it impossible to showcase the renovation that this hotel in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat had just premiered in February 2020, after an investment of ten million euros. A year and six months later, the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower, formerly known as Hesperia Tower, reopens its doors and does so with almost all its rooms occupied, according to its director, Ángel Holgado. Starting this Thursday, a pharmaceutical company will fill almost 100% of the hotel for an entire week.

The premium establishment had planned to open during September, like many other hotels in Barcelona, but the arrival of this large group allowed them to advance the date. Once the first week of opening passes, Holgado points out that reservations are going at a good pace and the prospects for the coming months are positive.

The hotel crowned with a UFO, designed by architect Richard Rogers, returns to activity with all its facilities and services renovated, completely adapted to the new measures due to covid. "It has a different look," summarizes Holgado. Its 280 rooms spread over 29 floors have been redecorated, as has the lobby, which now incorporates a co-working area and a gastronomic space, the Market, with sandwiches, snacks, and drinks.

The dining offer is completed with the Axis bar, also in the lobby and taking advantage of the new outdoor terrace; the Azimut lunch restaurant, and the Terrum restaurant, on the first floor. We will still have to wait for the return of the restaurant located at the top ---in the flying saucer---, which for now is used for private parties and events.

With proposals such as those of Axis, the Market, and the coworking space, the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower wants to strengthen its relationship with the city, Holgado emphasizes. The establishment returns offering spaces designed not only for its clients but also for residents of the area, who can go for meetings or stop by for a drink and enjoy the terrace.

The reactivation of the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower is part of the reopening process that the Hesperia group began last May with the Hyatt Regency Hesperia Madrid, followed in June with the holiday resorts in Lanzarote and Mallorca. The hotel group plans to reopen six more establishments during August and September, thus completing the resumption of all its business. In Barcelona, the Hesperia Ramblas has already done so, and only the Hesperia Sant Just hotel remains pending, which will do so this Saturday, and the Hesperia Presidente, which will wait until early September.
