SLS Barcelona: where corporate events connect with design and the sea

A five-star hotel combining design, location and experiences for corporate events in Barcelona

Located by the sea in Port Fòrum, SLS Barcelona positions itself as one of the most contemporary options for corporate events in the city, combining modern design, lifestyle energy and an offering tailored to the MICE segment. For the ones who don’t know SLS stands for Service, Luxury and Style. Following its opening in April 2025, the hotel has established itself as a new benchmark within Barcelona’s hospitality scene. Its arrival has introduced a concept that integrates accommodation, gastronomy and event spaces within one dynamic environment, aligned with the latest industry trends.

The hotel features 471 rooms and suites, all with a terrace or balcony, and an especially attractive event proposition combining versatile spaces, dining concepts and social areas. Its rooftop terrace of over 500 m² — one of the largest hotel terraces in Barcelona — stands out as an ideal setting for cocktails and open-air events, complemented by a carefully curated food and beverage offering integrated into the hotel.

Its location, just minutes from the city centre and with direct access to the sea, allows for a balanced combination of business and destination experience, enabling more dynamic programmes where networking and informal moments play a key role.

A setting that enhances the event experience

One of the hotel’s key strengths is its integration within an environment that expands the possibilities of any programme. Just minutes away lies the @22 district, Barcelona’s main innovation hub, as well as the Barcelona International Convention Centre (CCIB), located around a 10-minute walk away.

The Port del Fòrum offers the opportunity to include nautical activities or boat experiences, while the ongoing development of new lifestyle concepts is transforming the area into an emerging meeting point by the sea, further enhancing its appeal for social gatherings. The combination of sea, innovation and lifestyle spaces allows for more dynamic programmes that are closely connected to the destination.

SLS Barcelona offers flexible meeting spaces for different MICE formats

When it comes to event facilities, SLS Barcelona provides a versatile and adaptable offering for a wide range of corporate formats, from executive meetings to larger-scale events. The hotel features 14 meeting rooms and a total of 3,000 m² of indoor event space, all with natural light, integrated technology and independent access, ensuring smooth operations and a comfortable experience for attendees.

In a destination like Barcelona, where the offer is broad and diverse, concepts such as SLS Barcelona bring a different perspective, where design and the surrounding environment play a key role in shaping the event. If you are looking for a setting that combines city, sea and new ways of approaching corporate meetings, this hotel can be an excellent option to bring your next project to life.
