One of Spain's great hotels for events and meetings. Launched for the Barcelona Olympic Games to welcome sports delegations with the honours due to their rank, the Hotel Rey Juan Carlos I stopped its career in 2020, hit by the pandemic. The Melia Group is taking up the story of this <strong>an emblematic establishment in the Catalan metropolis<\/strong>transformed into a Gran Melia, the Gran Melia Torre Melina. It's like returning to our roots, this name referring to the name of the residence that had been established there since the 12th century and surrounded by a beautiful English garden at the end of the 19th century at the request of its owners at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the hotel designed by architect Carlos Ferrater has been completely redesigned and enhanced with a contemporary look, the garden is still there, stretching over 25,000 m\u00b2, providing a green setting for this<strong> urban resort<\/strong>. But it's also the perfect place for outdoor receptions. While the Gran Melia plays the leisure card to the full with its three indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spa and artificial beach, it is also, and above all, a venue for business meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"wp-block-varenne-link-block\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/melia-rey-juan-carlos-barcelone-20230112.html\/\" data-id=\"140061\">Melia, one of the big names in MICE in Barcelona<\/a><\/p><\/aside>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideally located on Avenida Diagonal, Barcelona's main thoroughfare, the Gran Melia Torre Melina has direct access to its neighbour, the <strong>Palau de Congresos de Catalunya<\/strong>. Two auditoriums and a large exhibition hall, 43 multi-purpose rooms, a capacity of over 2,000 people: the venue has everything it takes to host major business events, with the hotel now added to extend the range. In addition to its 391 rooms, including 61 suites, the hotel offers <strong>18 indoor and outdoor meeting rooms<\/strong>. Finally, for exclusive cocktails, the hotel also lends its rooftop, located on the 16th floor, offering 360\u00ba views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" data-id=\"167375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/gran-melia-torre-salonsuitepdtielle.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-167375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/gran-melia-torre-salonsuitepdtielle.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/gran-melia-torre-salonsuitepdtielle-300x169-derived.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption>Presidential suite lounge<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" data-id=\"167373\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/gran-melia-torre-suiteredlevel.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-167373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/gran-melia-torre-suiteredlevel.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/gran-melia-torre-suiteredlevel-300x200-derived.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption>Red Level Suite<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Spanish group's twelfth establishment in the Catalan capital adds a further<strong> <\/strong>exclusive RedLevel show, where \"\u00a0<em>guests can expect an even more personalised service, with access to VIP areas and exclusive facilities<\/em>\" says General Manager Ram\u00f3n Vidal Castro.
