The Hotel Majestic has been awarded the Grand Luxe category, thereby placing it among the elite of the maximum luxury hotels of Barcelona.
Located at 68 Paseo de Gracia, this hotel has received this recognition as it meets all the standards laid down by the General Board of Tourism of the Generalitat de Catalunya in order to become a five stars GL hotel.
The ongoing training of its personnel, its comprehensive hospitality and the comfort offered, together with the spaciousness of its installations and the magnificent quality of its entire hotel services have been some of the factors taken into account.

Its modern installations, its advanced technology and the Michelin guide star awarded to its Drolma restaurant (located in the hotel) are other arguments which made the Majestic deserving of the Grand Luxe category. Jean-Louis Dulau, the general director of the Majestic Hotel Group, already achieved the fifth star for the Majestic three years ago and now he is proud of the efforts and work put in by all his team in order to earn the Grand Luxe status.
Coinciding with this change, work has begun on the MAJESTIC SPA, which will soon be opened on the ninth floor of the emblematic building. Recently, and this is something which reaffirms the top quality of this establishment, the Hotel Majestic, owned by the Soldevila family, was distinguished with the award for the Best Hotel and Best Suite in Spain at the prestigious World Travel Awards, as well as being conferred with the 5 Star Diamond Award, which it has been achieving year after year since 2003, and which is a prize that only the best luxury hotels in the world can aspire to.
Epoque Hotels congratulates Hotel Majestic for this great success.

World’s Most Expensive Hotels

Do you want to know world expensive hotels, here is the information written by Tara Loader Wilkinson at www.ehotelier.com
Amid the recession, rock stars, diplomats and other celebrities find solace from the doom and gloom by spending their time in sanctuary provided by the world’s most luxurious, and expensive, hotels. While many of us are tightening our belts, shortening our summer holidays or even abandoning them, hoteliers to the rich and famous claim to have no trouble filling their most exclusive accommodation, and in the case of the most expensive suite in the world, managing to double its rate to $65,000 (€45,642) a night.
In an annual survey by Financial News’ sister publication Wealth Bulletin, the Royal Penthouse Suite at the President Wilson Hotel in Geneva, Switzerland, tops the list as the most expensive hotel room in 2009, commanding $65,000 for its four-bedroom penthouse – twice as much as patrons paid a year ago for its luxurious setting and views of Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc.
The hotel’s management puts the rise down to “buoyant demand” from government officials and United Nations diplomats.
Last year’s winner, the iconic Ty Warner Penthouse at the Four Seasons Hotel in New York, came second this time, at $35,000, $1,000 up from last year.
New entries this year were the third-placed Presidential Suite at the Hotel Cala di Volpe in Sardinia, the Villa La Cupola Suite at the Westin Excelsior in Rome and the Presidential Suite at the Ritz-Carlton in Tokyo.
Despite the past year’s financial and economic turmoil, prices at the best hotel suites have risen by an average of 10% this year. Herbert Ypma, founder of the Hip Hotels brand, said: “The very high end hasn’t suffered all that much. A lot of hotels used to having upmarket clientele are getting the benefit of them taking far more time off than usual – so they have more time to stay in hotels. Money was never the issue, time was.”
Hoteliers said that although the number of business travellers has fallen in the past year, government officials have taken their place in the best rooms and suites.
President Barack Obama and his entourage took over the entire Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Moscow for three nights in June. The President Wilson Hotel said heads of state and other high-level government officials are fuelling demand for its hugely expensive Royal Penthouse Suite.
Vivian Deuschl, spokeswoman for Ritz-Carlton Hotels, said demand is also coming from wealthy leisure travellers: “Last year they might have taken three or four cheaper holidays. This year they are taking one big vacation, but pulling out all the stops.”
The 3 most expensive hotel suites according to Wealth Bulletin’s survey for 2009 are:
The Royal Penthouse Suite, President Wilson Hotel, Geneva – $65,000 per night
Complete with a cocktail lounge, the Royal Penthouse Suite at the President Wilson is so exclusive that bookings reportedly have to be made through the hotel’s chairman. The suite occupies the entire top floor of the hotel. It is reached by a private elevator, has four bedrooms overlooking Lake Geneva and Mont Blanc and comes with six bathrooms. Equipped with bulletproof windows and doors, it is almost exclusively reserved for celebrities or state heads, ideal with the United Nations headquarters a five-minute drive away.
Ty Warner Penthouse, Four Seasons Hotel, New York – $35,000 per night
Business at the Ty Warner Penthouse at the Four Seasons Hotel in New York has remained as buoyant as when the suite opened in 2007, according to a spokeswoman. The nine-room suite has walls inlaid with thousands of pieces of mother-of-pearl. There is an indoor-outdoor Zen garden, a private spa room with a screen of living bamboo and a book-lined library, which has a grand piano at its centre.
The Presidential Suite, Hotel Cala di Volpe, Costa , Smeralda, Sardinia – $34,000 per night
The Presidential Suite at Hotel Cala di Volpe near Porto Cervo, averages around $34,000 a night, although during the peak summer season will cost as much as $45,000. Located in the hotel tower, the multi-level Presidential Suite sprawls across 2,500 sq ft and has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private gym, a steam room and a wine cellar. It is crowned by a rooftop terrace with an outdoor saltwater swimming pool.
