Default Is there a hotel in Barcelona designed by Gaudi?

I'm sure that I saw one when I was in Barcelona, but searching the internet, I can only find Hotel Gaudi, which is just opposite one of his buildings, and inspired by him.

I don't believe so...the buildings you are thinking of may be aparment complexes...he built a few of those, but I don't think any hotels.

I don't know about any hotels that he has designed however the Casa Vicens that he designed is now up for sale for a mere 30 million euros (http://www.casavicens.es/). Here's a list of all the buildings that were designed by Gaudi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Gaud%C3%AD_Buildings

TSorry, but there are definately no hotels in Barcelona designed by Gaudi.

There is a restaurant in the ground floor of Casa Calvet, which is a good restaurant, but Casa Calvet is not one of his most famous buildings and not open to the public except the restaurant.

But definately no Gaudi hotels in Barcelona.

You can see Gaudis most famous builidngs in Barcelona here:

Perhaps you are thinking of Hotel Casa Fuster on Gran de Gracia which looks as if it could be a Gaudi building? They have great live jazz on Thursday nights btw.

It was designed by LluĂ*s Domènech i Montaner who was a contemporary of Guadi's and his style is similar in certain respects..
also modernist era?
