Rafayel on the Left Bank Hotel & Spa

Between trendiness and tradition, Casa Cacao is a gastronomic tribute to chocolate and also a pleasure for the senses. Above the chocolate shop with the same name, the hotel offers some of the best views of the city in spacious suites that conceive the bathroom as a space for wellbeing. The modernity of Loft faucets or Superinox accessories is combined with solutions for comfort such as the freestanding Virginia bath or the Rainsense and Raindream shower-heads. The combination of all these elements results in welcoming rooms designed to get away.

Built in 1932, it is located in a select haven between the Sant Pol and Cala Sa Conca beaches. Film stars, heads of state and members of distinguished European royal families have all enjoyed the hospitality and comfort of its rooms and the exceptional Royal Suite.

Built on the Tai Lake, its extraordinary structure is described as a bright moon, inspired by traditional Chinese bridges. In the evening, its laser light show presents a stunning visual performance with different colors and shapes. _x000D_ _x000D_ The guestrooms are fitted with cutting-edge technology, including, an iPad touch screen control panel for lights and curtains. The bathroom space in the suites are equally well-equipped, with Khroma models from Roca. The inspiring, personalised colours of the soft seat back leave a gentle touch and, instead of being a monotonous place, the bathroom is somewhere you can experience a wonderful journey made possible by technology.

Working closely alongside YOTEL at the design stage of the project, Roca created a bathroom solution that closely aligned with the brand standards. This included the Gap wall‐hung WC and a bespoke vanity unit, in addition to bespoke washroom countertops for the public areas of the hotel. The bespoke units were made using Surfex®, a malleable solid surface material formulated from a combination of minerals and resins. The unique properties of Surfex allow it to be poured into a production mould, enabling complex designs with no joints or seams. The materials properties also permit ‘on-­‐site’ changes to the finished product, catering to different guestroom sizes and configurations. At YOTEL Edinburgh the advantages of Surfex were harnessed to create a wash basin bowl with an integrated unit that maximises countertop space, providing ample storage space for toiletries and grooming products.

The building reaches 99 m. high highlighting the skyline of the Catalan coast. It offers an experience marked by the contemporary lifestyle with a complete range of services, such as the first Bliss® Spa of Spain (the most fashionable spa in New York), a restaurant on the second floor with unparalleled views of the coast of Barcelona and a stylish rooftop bar owned by Ignite Group, a nightlife guru based in London._x000D_ _x000D_ The W-Barcelona offers its guests the best products of the Moai, Loft and Sprint faucets collections, along with the unique Vythos bath and the exclusive Broadway Compact spa.
