History

7 dates, written by Grand Hotels of the World from the sources below.

  1. Lluís Domènech i Montaner begins the modernista mansion for Mariano Fuster i Fuster and his wife Consol Fabra i Puig.

  2. The Fuster-Fabra family moves in. With red stone columns, white marble and trefoil windows, it is the architect’s last town house.

  3. The family leaves, the upkeep being too costly; the ground-floor Café Vienés later becomes a haunt of artists and society.

  4. The power company ENHER buys the building to replace it with offices; public protest and press campaigns save it from demolition.

  5. Renovation work on the house begins.

  6. Hoteles Center acquires the building.

  7. After a costly restoration by GCA (architects Josep Juanpere and Josep Riu) preserving vaults, columns and ornament, it opens as a five-star hotel.
