“A quirky spot blending Cuban flair with Scottish charm and a splash of punk in Barcelona’s vibrant El Born. Colonial meets the Highlands decor with wooden shutters, vintage tiles, and plenty of plaid, all with a modern twist. With a cool bar, restaurant, and comfy lounges, it's a laid-back haven. ”

It’s hard to know what to expect from a hotel that sells itself on a concept of 'Scotland meets Cuba meets the Clash', but cast aside your scepticism, for it is setting the standard in class on a budget. Stylish, discreet and friendly, with a warm palette of deep greens and reds, it is also terrific value
