"Young, trendy city folk come to the new Yurbban Passage for a great deal, yes, but also for the comfortable accommodations, rooftop bar and plunge pool, magnificent views, and peaceful spa, complete with massage jets and two luxe treatment rooms. The in-house restaurant serves local cuisine made from Catalan produce, while Plat Únic restaurant in the Yurbban Trafalgar sister hotel next door offers a fun and different concept involving unlimited beef ribs and free-flowing wine. Yurbban Passage is located in a converted textile factory, so it follows that it, like so many of Barcelona’s other upscale hotels, sources its bed linens from Bassols, a posh local brand. The best rooms in the house are the two premium rooms on the top floor, each with a terrace. The view from these private decks is jaw-dropping. Favorite features here are probably the spa and roof terrace, which set the hotel a cut above other four-stars in this price range." - Gemma Askham, Isabelle Kliger
"Tucked away above El Born's hidden passageways, this luxury boutique hotel offers panoramic and uncrowded views from its rooftop plunge pool." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"The passage to which the name alludes is the Passatge de les Manufactures, a small space that connects the Born district to the Eixample opened in 1878." - The MICHELIN Guide
