Kimpton Vividora

Kimpton Vividora Hotel opened its doors in February 2020 in Barcelona’s vibrant and well known Gothic Quarter, hence the design for the hotel had to have harmony between the Ciutat Vella, an artsy neighbourhood with an old body and young soul, and a luxury Kimpton Hotel design. The Vividora offers different public spaces that invite both guests and locals to enjoy, meet and interact; all of these spaces are a reflection of the local lifestyle showcasing handcrafted elements, local brands and art and colourful ceramic patterns.

The Kimpton Vividora has 156 guestrooms, 10 of which are suites, three restaurants and bars, a rooftop terrace and a pool offering unique views of the city. Every guestroom and suite’s design was inspired by a stylish Barcelona apartment, with a Mediterranean colour palette, natural wood, sleek marble, subtle graphic motifs and bold tiles, and locally designed and crafted furniture and artwork. The rooms’ also present Pantone’s 2020 Colour of the Year – Classic Blue.

The Classic Blue is also present at the hotel’s main restaurant – Fauna. Fauna was inspired by the warmth of an elegant Barcelona home with mosaic floors, walls covered in colourful tiles and high ceilings. Fauna’s menu was created by Catalan’s Chef Ferran López, offering a culinary experience rooted in Mediterranean flavours and traditional family recipes.

On the ground floor, Cafè Got has floor to ceiling windows offering local coffee – NOMAD, Catalan cheeses, natural wines, homemade vermouths and signature cocktails by Adrià Batlle. Terraza de Vivi, the rooftop of Kimpton Vividora, is the city’s newest oasis. With a beautiful swimming pool, sun loungers, pergolas and lush greenery, this rooftop offers an ingenious selection of cocktails combined with small creative dishes from the bar, all with panoramic views of the city.
