McAlpine, whose construction company had created high-end hotels for clients for decades, bought the former factory, with its dramatic but dilapidated curved walls, in 2010 and recruited two of his children and their spouses to run it. The buildings were painstakingly restored with the help of local architect Aryeh Seigel. The Rockwell Group—fans of Beacon and colleagues of Mr. McAlpine’s on past projects—created designs for the interiors, executed by local designer Elizabeth Strianese and featuring the work of many local artists and artisans.

Each guestroom takes in a steady stream of sunshine through the windows, balconies, and terraces. The floors are still covered with the original mosaic tiles and the textiles in the rooms were created by Teixidors. As a nonprofit company based outside of Barcelona, they provide opportunities for individuals with learning disabilities and handcrafted the blankets on the hotel beds. The bedroom suites feature original solariums.
