At home or abroad, Madame micebook will never say no to Nobu…

With her summer holidays booked months ago, this is the season for Madame micebook to start to prep her autumn mini break list. And top of the wish-list next season will undoubtedly be Barcelona. No, not for IBTM World – this is an October trip to check out the hottest opening in town – the Nobu Hotel Barcelona, a member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts Collection, which has just revealed it will open its doors in September.

Set in the atmospheric Catalan neighbourhood of Eixample, the hotel is just a five minute stroll from Plaza de España and a 15 minute stomp from Barcelona’s vibrant La Rambla.

Inside, the 259 sleek rooms ooze style with a blend of Catalan-inspired designs juxtaposed with traditional Japanese crafts, but naturally Madame has her eyes on the 150sqm Nobu Suite, coupled with some time in the relaxing spa.

But this weekend trip isn’t about the comfort of a room, nor a chance to discover Barcelona – the purpose of trip is to sate oneself in the city’s first Nobu Restaurant and Japanese-inspired tapas bar, Kozara.

Located on the top floor of the 23-storey property, diners at Nobu will be spoiled by the views of the Barcelona skyline and the Mediterranean. The menu will reflect Nobu’s philosophy of locality; paying homage to local ingredients and classic Catalan cuisine, while staying true to the brand’s Japanese DNA.

Meanwhile, Kozara will serve Japanese-style tapas and cocktails using the widest range of sakes and Japanese whiskeys in town.
