On the sustainability side, the hotel will have auto-sufficient energy and renewable sources, with solar panels providing the hotel’s energy.

Alba Bustamante, Global Brand Marketing Director of ME by Melia, commented:

“ME Barcelona represents a step forward for ME by Melia, along with recent major openings such as the stunning ME Dubai, the work of the late architect Zaha Hadid, and the exotic ME Cabo. All these hotels have consolidated, at an international level, the new definition of contemporary luxury close to the art and culture of the brand.”

There are currently seven hotels in the ME portfolio in Dubai, Milan, London, Ibiza, Madrid, Sitges and Cabo. Melia Hotels International operates over 380 hotels in more than 40 countries.
