Why stay at Hotel Peninsular?
The building is also notable for its striking Modernist architecture. Its central courtyard, with three storeys of open galleries and balconies, has the feel of a neoclassical convent cloister. In fact, today’s hotel rooms were once the monks’ cells of an Augustinian convent. Some original features remain, including a hidden underground passageway—likely used during periods of unrest – that once connected the nearby Church of Sant Agustí (just behind the hotel) with the monks’ quarters.
