Hotel Arts in Barcelona was designed by Bruce Graham of SOM as partner in charge, with senior architect Miguel Ruano and local architect of record Agustí Obiol. The infobox lists Host Hotels & Resorts and ABP as owners, but the text says Archer Hotel Capital owns it now, which conflicts. Ritz-Carlton operates it. The infobox gives 1992 to 1994, while the text says a 10-story building opened in 1992 and was finished in 1994.

The infobox calls the style structural expressionism, while the text calls it high-tech. The tower is 505 feet (154 m) tall with 44 stories and 483 rooms. It names no materials.

A full renovation came in 2006, and a new renovation's first phase finished in June 2025, with the full project due in 2026. It is a luxury hotel with a spa and six restaurants. The article gives no hours.
