By the Owners

Six stories of family history.

Outside our hotel, a city alive with stories. Inside, the stories we wrote ourselves. We are Luis and Javier, owners of Hotel Pulitzer Barcelona and partners of Pulitzer Hotels. Born and raised between hotel walls, we didn’t just learn good service, we lived it. Today we’re a family of travellers, setting the scene for new stories all around the world.

From Barcelona with love.


In 1967, we settled into the iconic Hotel Regina in Barcelona, where the story of Pulitzer Hotels began.

To Paris with passion,

where in 2000 our love of hospitality and history inspired us to open Pulitzer Paris Hotel. 

Then back to Barcelona

four years later, where we opened Hotel Pulitzer Barcelona - a hotel with music at its heart.

And away to Argentina

where in 2011 we opened our first hotel across the Atlantic, the relaxing Hotel Pulitzer Buenos Aires in the bustling "microcentro" of the city.

But home is where the heart is

and we’re rooted to Barcelona. We opened our Bar La Esquina, an all-time bistro bar, in the heart of Barcelona and the luminous meeting and event space Bergara 10, just next door to Hotel Pulitzer Barcelona.

Now we’re writing a postcard to tomorrow.

In 2017 we were named one of Spain’s top 10 sustainability and rehabilitation hotel projects at the ReThink Hotel competition. This reflects our commitment to sustainability, social development, and quality in everything we do.
