Luxury Lakeside Retreat Opens in the Heart of the Spanish Pyrenees

-

The Hospes Villa Paulita is located in the Catalan town of Puigcerdà, a strong ski, adventure sports, relax, and culture destination, only 150 km away from Barcelona or Toulouse.

The new property, similar to the other hotels of the group, shows a clear trend for the combination of culture, well-being, art, history, cuisine and relaxation. The Hospes Villa Paulita is a remarkable Art Nouveau family mansion that combines a fantastic location with a wide array of facilities: facing the Puigcerda lake and framed by the wonderful Catalan Pyrenees. It has 38 spacious rooms, spacious garden areas, and two meeting rooms for up to 150 people. In its gourmet restaurant, "L'Estany" guests may enjoy the best Senzone cuisine, based on local produce and recipes; while in the Bodyna Spa, guests can be taken away by a wave of sensations with the most complete services based on natural products and therapies.

Puigcerdà is the capital of La Cerdanya region, in the northern part of Catalunya, protected by the Pyrenees mountains. It is located an altitude of 1,1 km, 1 km. from the border with France and 40 km. from Andorra. The main cities of Barcelona and Toulouse lie only about 150km away to the south and to the north, respectively. Puigcerdà is an enchanting place to visit at any time of the year. The visitor may enjoy a wide range of cultural and sports activities, such as ski, golf, trekking, biking, riding, ice skating, 4x4, etc. Also noteworthy is discovering the Gothic, Modernist and Romanesque churches and villas of the area.

The public spaces and thirty-four individually decorated guestrooms, as well as four suites, are divided among the buildings. Designer lighting, high tech and luxurious fabrics in silver and cream are equally at home in the historic mansion as are fine details and craftsmanship that reveal the hotel’s heritage. These include wood beamed ceilings, wrought iron balustrades, stained glass window panes, and even selected antiques, inherited from the villa’s original owners. The effect is an artful composition of historic and contemporary design—one which reflects the different centuries in which the buildings were born.

With its serene lakeside setting and manicured gardens, the outdoor environment has been integrated as an additional space for socialising and relaxation. Glass pyramids are spaced throughout the gardens, providing architectural interest, as well as a flood of natural light to the expansive Bodyna Spa, located on the lower level of the resort. In addition to natural treatments and massages, Bodyna Spa surprises with an indoor swimming pool, a fitness centre as well as wet and dry saunas. The indulgence continues at Senzone L’Estany, the resort’s gourmet restaurant, which offers cuisine balanced between sophistication and tradition. An elegant event room is also available for private dinners and a second space can host up to 150 people for larger group retreats.

Located just 150 km from Barcelona and Toulouse, the Catalan town of Puigcerdà has long been a destination for year-round cultural events and outdoor activities, ranging from skiing and golf to horseback-riding and hiking to the area’s many historic monuments. The destination is a perfect fit for the integral approach of Hospes hospitality and guests will experience regeneration both within and beyond the majestic gates.
