Nobu Hospitality – the global luxury lifestyle and iconic hotel, dining, and residence brand has unveiled Nobu Spanish Summer, an immersive culinary and cultural journey across Spain. Staying at four Nobu Hotels in the country’s most iconic destinations, travellers can explore the bustling streets of Barcelona, the shores of San Sebastián, vibrant Marbella, and the blissful Balearic Island of Ibiza.
The individual allure of these cultural pockets of Spain will be revealed through exclusive destination guides, with access to landmarks, local hotspots, and hidden culinary gems. Nobu Hotels in each location offer respite after days of exploring, with energising social spaces and elegant suites, where Japanese minimalism is blended with design touches reflective of its locale. To celebrate the launch of Nobu Spanish Summer, each hotel will offer a signature Taste of Spain experience, with exclusive menus and gastronomic experiences centred around the flavours and traditions of Spanish cuisine:
1. Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay: Perched on slick of sand on the shores of Talamanca, Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay is a blissful blend of laid-back luxury and extravagance, with signature Nobu Restaurant, Six Senses Spa, two swimming pools with sparkling sea views and stylish suites. Discover Ibizan delicacies on an island tapas tour, rich with fresh-from-the-ocean seafood and traditional desserts, before exploring hidden hotspots with guided hikes and e-bike tours.
2. Nobu Hotel Marbella: Located on the renowned 'Golden Mile' in Southern Spain, Nobu Hotel Marbella offers guests a chic coastal retreat just steps away from the sandy beaches and turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. A gourmand’s dream, the hotel houses a Nobu restaurant, with neighbouring eateries including an Argentinian asado, Italian trattoria, and Michelin-starred cuisine Dani Garcia’s namesake restaurant.
3. Nobu Hotel San Sebastián: Overlooking La Concha Bay, Nobu Hotel San Sebastián is a new luxurious lifestyle destination in one of Europe's gastronomic capitals. The Basque region of northern Spain is one of the oldest cultures in Europe, rich in heritage and local Basque Pintxos, which guests can discover in the ornate Old Town on private guided tours.
4. Nobu Hotel Barcelona: A 23-story hotel with panoramic views of both skyline and coastline, Nobu Hotel Barcelona sits within the neighbourhood of Plaza de España, a lesser-discovered pocket of the Catalan Capital brimming with food markets. Inspired by the local tradition of ‘trencadís’, a smashed-tile mosaic technique famously used by Gaudí, the hotel seamlessly blends Japanese and nods to the city’s architectural heritage. The Nobu Spanish Summer journey culminates here, where travellers experience the excitement of the esteemed America’s Cup, with VIP access to exclusive events courtesy of Nobu Hotels.
"As we continue to strengthen our footprint in Spain, we are excited to introduce the new Nobu Spanish Summer experience – the first of its kind for Nobu Hospitality. We look forward to offering our Nobu guests memorable, cultural experiences across four distinct hotels in some of the country’s most diverse destinations’ said Trevor Horwell, CEO, Nobu Hospitality.
