One of the first things you'll spot from the private balcony of this smart apartment is the Xemeneia de la Bordeta – the historic smokestack of one of the 19th Century porcelain factories this area was famed for. Today it's a protected landmark standing tall in the small square of Plaça de Joan Corrades i Bosch, just opposite this colourful, freshly renovated home. 

Here you're guaranteed a comfortable stay, with plenty of natural light, a squashy velvet sofa to put your feet up on and that rare piece of outdoor space – somewhere to people watch over your morning coffee as the bustling neighbourhood bursts into life. The bedrooms are bright and simple, with space for a small family or a few friends. It's an easy walk to the nearby Magic Fountain of Montjuïc for the nightly shows of light and colour, and the Metro station a few minutes from your door gives you easy access to the rest of the city.

Cool, calm and collected, this Eastern-inspired apartment in Barcelona's vibrant Eixample district is all set to offer you a relaxing, carefree stay. From its wooden surfaces and beige tones to the hemp furnishings and curated houseplants, there's a feeling of balance and zen here that makes for a welcomed break from the excitement of the city outside. Infusing dome ceilings and Catalonian-style beams with Indonesian art prints and Shoji-style panelling in the hallway, you'll have no trouble curling up on the sofa for a quiet moment's downtime in this sanctuary of serenity. When you're feeling a bit livelier, stick a vinyl on the record player and listen to your favourite tunes while cooking in the kitchen. Outside of your home, the surrounding neighbourhood has plenty of supermarkets, restaurants and bars to sample, while two of Gaudí's most famous works, the Sagrada Familia and Casa Milà are just under fifteen minutes away on foot. When you return, light a couple of candles and run yourself an indulgent bubble bath, or break open a bottle of Spanish wine and perch over the standing balcony, watching the world go by in this iconic part of town.

Cool, calm and collected, this Scandinavian-chic penthouse is blessed with plenty of charisma. Everything about this home is effortlessly stylish – we especially love the vintage Beni Ourain-inspired rug, the handcrafted wooden light fixture, and the 1950s Ercol butterfly chairs. However, the cherry on top is the huge arched window in the living room, which frames the beautiful buildings of Avenida Diagonal in a mesmerising way. So, excuse us while we take a moment to imagine ourselves sitting in front of the luminous windows, enjoying the majestic views. Should this magnificent view not be enough, there's also a welcoming private terrace that's kitted out for alfresco feasts, while the adjacent sunroom is perfect for an afternoon siesta. Enjoy a glass of cava on the sun lounger before heading out to explore the neighbourhood. Explore Eixample and stroll along nearby streets, including the pedestrianised Enric Granados, vibrant Casanova and upmarket Aribau – all of which are lined with charming cafes, outstanding restaurants and vibrant bars within a fifteen-minute walk.

This apartment is on one of Barcelona's most fashionable boulevards, close to Las Ramblas and the late-night tapas bars of the Gothic Quarter. Passeig de Gràcia with its shops, restaurants and bars, is just a five-minute walk away. There’s a sense of old-world grandeur inside thanks to chandeliers and corniced ceilings, in keeping with the historic building. The apartment is family-sized, but might feel cramped at capacity with three in one bedroom and two on the sofa bed in the living room. Balconies off the living room and one of the bedrooms face Rambla Catalunya – perfect for people-watching.

It’s a great part of the city for enjoying alfresco drinks, meandering along tree-lined streets, and shopping in stylish boutiques. There’s an old-world charm to this part of Barcelona, which makes it a charming base for seeing the sights – which is as easy as can be thanks to the proximity of the Universitat metro station. The apartment is stylish and comfortable, with everything you might need for a city break. We love that guests staying here get access to a shared rooftop terrace.

The marine blue accent wall makes the open-plan living space feel connected and cosy, while boiserie and marble-effect details add a touch of elegance. You’ll begin your mornings at the dining table with a traditional Catalan breakfast before nipping onto the balcony to bask in the glorious sunshine. 

Spend afternoons ticking off Barcelona’s cultural hot spots – Gaudí’s Casa Batlló is a mere 160 metres from your building and La Sagrada Família is a leisurely twenty-five-minute walk away. Weave through the Gothic Quarter’s charming streets – stop for a coffee on La Rambla and pore over the masterpieces in the Picasso Museum.

The Selena 

From its warm, earthy hues to its blend of beautiful textures, this home in Barcelona’s Eixample neighbourhood instantly feels calming. Wood floors, an alcove ceiling and ample natural light greet you in the open-plan living area where a cushy sofa invites you to kick back and relax with a glass of wine while a record serenades you.

The city’s cultural depth and diversity, reflected in this apartment’s dynamic aesthetic, have been intentionally designed to maximise your city break.

The city’s cultural depth and diversity, reflected in this apartment’s refined aesthetic, have been intentionally designed to maximise your city break.

Barcelona is one of the world's most stylish cities, and this chic apartment reflects its location perfectly. Whether you're in the city for business, to catch up with friends and family, or simply to enjoy the Catalonian lifestyle, it's a great place to call home during your trip. 

Push open the front door, and you'll find monochrome furnishings with the occasional pop of blue – this contemporary space is perfect for relaxing between your adventures. The open-plan set-up means you can chat with your fellow guests while cooking or preparing drinks, and there's space for the whole group to gather around the table for some quality time together. 

From here, you can easily explore the city – the surrounding Eixample district is famous for its art nouveau architecture, buzzing bars, and trendy restaurants. The iconic Casa Milà is just around the corner, while the Sagrada Familia is a twenty-minute walk away. And, if you want to venture further afield in the city, simply hop on the metro at Diagonal station – it's only a two-minute walk away.

This elegant apartment is in the centre of Barcelona, 100 metres from Las Ramblas and a short walk from Plaza de Catalunya. Bars, restaurants and shops are all on your doorstep. Apart from a full kitchen and delightful dining room inside, there’s a private terrace for evening cocktails outside. In the living room, you’ve got a dedicated laptop desk for those that need to work remotely. Despite the central location, it’s pretty quiet as the rooms look out over the terrace rather than the busy street. 

When the City Sleeps

Mini Bar

Situated in the bustling Eixample district, this crowd-pleasing apartment is ideal for big groups of friends or extended families looking to get out and explore the city. You're just a short walk from the lively Rambla de Cataluña, filled with shops, restaurants and bars, while the cultural landmarks of Gaudí's Casa Batlló and Casa Milà are fifteen minutes away on foot. The bedrooms vary in size and there's limited space on the terrace, but the home is bright and comfortable. The private balcony is an added bonus and there's an open kitchen and breakfast bar for group meals together and mapping out the day ahead. 

At Their Best

This stylish apartment, housed in a grand period building, has a fantastic address. Gaudí's masterpiece Casa Batlló is a three-minute saunter, while it's a six-minute stroll to Paseo De Gracia with its museums and designer boutiques galore (Gucci, Chanel and Versace, amongst many others). Plaza Catalunya and Las Ramblas, on the other hand, are a ten-minute walk away or visit one of Barcelona's most iconic attractions, the Sagrada Familia, just over twenty minutes on foot.

Back at this home, open the French doors to the balcony and have a seat on the comfy sofa after all that sightseeing. We love the high ceilings here and traditional wall mouldings. There's a gorgeous, modern four-poster bed as well – this place is perfect for a couple or friends looking for a bolt hole in Barcelona.


Modern Romance

Luxury Bedding

Located on the cusp of the Eixample neighbourhood, this apartment puts you in an excellent position to explore the city in style. It's right on the Ronda de la Universitat, a major thoroughfare in the city, but this sanctuary is pretty peaceful – thanks to it being on the inner side of the building, you get to enjoy the central location without the noise. We liked the splashes of mauve in the living room, as well as the use of natural materials. The kitchen is kitted out with basic seasonings and cooking ingredients, and there's a juicer and Nespresso machine to make mornings a delight. And the true standout feature of this home is the bedroom, with its impressive modern twist on a classic four-poster bed and painted brick wall. Step outside, and it's just a four-minute walk to the Plaça de Catalunya, and you can arrive at the labyrinthine Gothic Quarter in less than fifteen minutes. 

Cuboides

This south-facing rooftop apartment is a real suntrap. Not only is the kitchen illuminated throughout the day, but all the bedrooms are blessed with large external windows too. And if there's one thing you can never have too much of in a home, it's light. We're in love with the kitchen and terrace, with views across the city and plenty of outdoor seating for everyone to enjoy breakfast in the sunshine. There's also a barbecue out here for alfresco summer evenings grilling dinner as the neighbourhood's residents return from work and things spring to life. While it might not be the most centrally located, the upmarket residential neighbourhood of Sarría offers a peaceful break from the bedlam of central Barcelona. Packed with posh homes, shops and restaurants, it was an independent town until 1921, when the city engulfed it. However, it still retains something of that small town Catalan charm without having to leave the city. If you're searching for an authentic Barcelona experience, then look no further.

Glasshouse

With a fantastic position in the middle of Eixample, this apartment puts you close to many of Barcelona's most famous sights. Even if you plan to spend most of your time exploring the city's streets, you'll be happy to return to this stylish home at the end of the day.

High ceilings and tall windows mean that the interior feels bright and airy, but there's also a Juliet balcony if you want to feel the breeze on your face at any point. There's a lot to like about the design too, with wooden furnishings and surfaces going nicely with the cool grey tiles and eclectic selection of objets d'art. We're fans of the exposed brickwork in the master bedroom, which adds a loft feel to the space, as well as the pristine subway tiling in the bathrooms.

When it comes to sightseeing, the place to start has to be Casa Milà, which lies five minutes' walk from the home. One of Gaudí's other famous creations, La Sagrada Familia, can be reached in twenty-five minutes on foot, too. The Gothic Quarter takes a similar amount of time in another direction.

A Shining Example

Take a short stroll from this home and you’ll find yourself in Plaza Cataluña or wandering the streets of the Gothic Quarter. Wherever you find yourself in this central spot, there’s something impressive to admire. And when you’re looking for a simple place to pause and soak it all in, this apartment makes a great option. Designed with comfort in mind, the rooms are perfectly sized for a small group to stretch out and unwind. There’s also a sofa bed – ideal for two extra guests. 

The Brighter Place

Umbrellas

As far as homes in La Dreta de l'Eixample go, Caletre is a solid representation of the neighbourhood's architecture. Adorned with Modernist masterpieces, this part of Barcelona boasts great architecture on every corner and even the insides of an unassuming building like this one show some masterful craft. True, the street you'll be staying on is a little bit noisy, but we think that easy access to the cultural heart of town more than makes up for it.

You're in for a treat with a stay at this contemporary apartment perched along a handsome leafy avenue of the well-heeled Eixample district. Home to Gaudí's architectural gems, haute couture shops, and Michelin star restaurants, they call this neck of the woods Quadrat d'Or (Golden Square) for a good reason.

Back at home, the pristine, uncluttered interiors will appeal to all you minimalists out there. Flooded with natural daylight thanks to those floor-to-ceiling Juliet balcony windows, it feels like a breath of fresh air to return to after a day soaking up all that Gaudi extravagance in the streets below.

Drop your bags in the spacious hallway, grab a glass of something crisp (the complimentary chilled wine will help with that), then fling the balcony doors open wide to watch the grand avenue of Gran Via bustle below. One of Barcelona's longest boulevards crossing right through the city, it's an impressive sight to behold. And thanks to its elevated position on the fifth floor, the spacious bedrooms feel surprisingly quiet at night with the windows closed and the black-out blinds drawn.

How Transparent

This cosy apartment lies in the L'Eixample district, with its own private balcony. The central location means some noise, and parking might be tricky, but the lively locale makes it the perfect spot for getting to know the city on foot. The kitchen is on the smaller side, so you'll definitely want to take advantage of nearby eateries. With a laptop-friendly workspace and enough room on the balcony to sit with an evening sangria, this home is suited for all types of trips.

Getting to Know You

Right in the heart of the trendy Eixample area, this home is simply drop-dead gorgeous. Styled to perfection by local interior designers, there's an Indonesian-Catalan fusion going on here – and we love it. Ideal for longer stays, there's a fully kitted-out kitchen, two stylish bedrooms and bathrooms, and plenty of space to relax in. A traditional balcony runs the length of the living space and both bedrooms boast Juliet balconies so there's no shortage of natural light and fresh air if you want it.

But by far our favourite thing about this home is its access to the building's shared rooftop terrace – which just happens to include a pool. Grab a sun lounger and read your book, or just take a quick dip to keep cool. Surrounded by excellent bars and restaurants, there's plenty to keep you occupied within easy walking distance, and the local architecture is a treat for the design-obsessed.

Live like a local in this smart Barcelona apartment, located in the vibrant Eixample district. You'll love getting comfortable in the bright living room, perhaps opening a bottle of Spanish red wine, and planning your stay in the city. When you get hungry, you can whip up your favourite meal in the kitchen, before gathering around the chic glass table to enjoy your culinary creations – there are even a few flamingoes on the wall for company. However, we think the best part of this contemporary home has to be the balcony, a fantastic spot for people-watching and chilling out at all times of day. The surrounding area is famous for its modernist architecture, and you'll love wandering through the streets, dipping into local boutiques and cafés as you go. The breathtaking Parc Joan Miró is just a ten-minute walk away, where you'll find plenty of open space, while the Plaça d'Espanya is just a little further. And, with the nearest metro station just one block away, it's very straightforward to get around the city from here, should you want to travel further afield. 

Flamingo

This Spanish pad in Eixample Esquerra is just as chic as the surrounding neighbourhood. With long corridors, there’s plenty of space for people to spread out and find their own quiet nook here – the balcony just off the main bedroom is a perfect example. We like the separate kitchen, which is ready and waiting to help with your culinary efforts – although, with Michelin-starred restaurants and cosy bistros nearby, we’re sure that meals out sampling authentic Spanish cuisine will be high on the agenda. 

Eixample Elegance

If we could choose one street out of the thousands in Barcelona to lay our hats for a stay in the city, it would always be the leafy, pedestrianised Carrer d'Enric Granado of the L'Eixample district. And luckily for you, it's the setting of this oh-so-elegant apartment. Brimming with highly-brunchable cafes, ice-cream parlours, and galleries and within walking distance of the city's must-see sights, you couldn't dream up a better location. 

Inside, vaulted ceilings dating way back to the 1800s bring all the wow factor – while a glorious mishmash of heirloom-worthy antiques and curated artwork add layers of interest and authenticity. Guests rave about the careful attention to detail here and we couldn't agree more. There's a dedicated desk area to keep on top of emails, a slick kitchen, and two fully modernised bathrooms, complete with rainfall showers to kick start your day.

But the clincher for us has to be that lavish living room with panoramic views of the city from the Juliette balcony. Grab yourself a freshly brewed coffee and peer out over the balcony to watch city life awaken below along its leafy avenue – it's everything you imagined it would be.

Enrique's Place

Gold-leaf frames and marble finishings make for an upscale design at this flat in central Barcelona. It overlooks the iconic Passeig de Gràcia, a pedestrian avenue known for its array of shops, restaurants and bars. This busy and exciting district is the heartbeat of the city. Back up in this secluded apartment, which sits in a beautiful building, you'll find the tall ceilings and regal furniture will make you feel like royalty. Take lunch or dinner beneath the chandelier, and admire the works of art and views of the city. Watch the widescreen TV on the antique sofa and armchair, before climbing up to the mezzanine and retiring to bed. If you're staying up, head out to the Plaça de Catalunya just outside and enjoy the nightlife. 

The Majestic Passage

There's room for all eight of you to pile into this chic Barcelona bolthole, placed right in the heart of Eixample's wander-worthy, elegant streets. 

Get off to a flying start exploring the city at the Cathedral of Barcelona (just thirteen minutes on foot). Stop by Plaça Reial, just around the corner, for a spot of brunch with the fountain and palm trees as your backdrop. Then hit the tree-lined streets of La Rambla (seventeen minutes on foot) for some retail therapy. Or, for a slice of something more authentic, stop by La Boqueria Market (twenty-two minutes on foot), the city's most flamboyant and bustling market, for a market-fresh snack.

When it's time to escape the bustle for a while, the beach for an afternoon of lounging around on the golden sand and sipping a glass of Sangria is never far away. Or head back home to this fresh and inviting city hideaway.

Housed in a grand art nouveau apartment building typical of the city, you can tell a designer has been working their décor wizardry inside this home. Light-filled and minimalist, there's a great mid-century quality about the space alongside parquet wooden flooring and those lofty ceilings. We adore the bespoke wooden kitchen – ideal for whipping up a delicious breakfast in the morning, along with a cup of coffee. And there's space for you all to spill out around that dining table as you hatch plans for another adventure in the city.


Rocking It

This flat's earthy tones and use of natural materials gives the space a warm and cosy vibe – and we adore every inch. Design-wise, the style here is rustic and a little bit bohemian, with rattan furniture, crochet artwork and swoon-worthy exposed brick walls. Everything you'll need is taken care of by your lovely hosts – the glossy kitchen has basic ingredients and cooking gear, the flatscreen comes equipped with Netflix and Apple TV services and the home manual is the most thorough one we've ever seen. And despite the shared lobby entrance being off a busy road, the apartment is sat at the back of the building and is relatively quiet, making it an excellent spot to relax, unwind and sprawl out after a busy day exploring. Speaking of, you'll find this flat in lively Eixample, a hub of cultural attractions, Gaudi architecture and high-end boutiques. The Cathedral of Barcelona is only a thirteen-minute walk, while Mercado de La Boqueria is ten minutes on foot – head there for fresh produce and local ingredients when you feel like cooking. Whether you want to grab brunch or stroll through a museum, people-watch in a square or dance the night away at a nightclub, this area is rife with adventure.

Burnt Umber

Wine Cooler

Immerse yourself in Old World Barcelona with this art-filled apartment situated just a few minutes walk from Plaça Catalunya. This newly renovated home greets you with a brilliant fusion of colours, patterns, and a creative mix of authentic furnishings that hearken to the stylish age of yesteryear. Walls are adorned with a varied collection of turn-of-the-century artwork in gilded frames, while the original floors are covered in antique mosaic tiling. Even the bathroom tiling is reminiscent of Gaudi's Modernism.

In addition to its beautiful flair, it’s remarkably easy to feel comfy here. That is particularly true due to brand-new air conditioning system which keeps the entire apartment cool and comfortable, luxury mattresses and bedding, and the wide sunroom complete with a row of French doors that open out to Juliet balconies that let in the sunshine and fresh air.

Downstairs in this stylish and surprisingly quiet neighbourhood, you’ll find cafés, restaurants and art galleries as well as two grocery stores to stock up on provisions. Not only that, but it's in an excellent location for sightseeing. The charming Gothic Quarter is ten minutes away on foot, as are the green spaces and monuments of Parc de la Ciutadella. Barceloneta Beach is only half an hour's walk away, too.

Plush & Lush

Enviably located in the heart of Barcelona, footsteps from the Plaça de Catalunya and a bus ride from Barceloneta Beach, this apartment is an excellent choice for all travelling types. If you wish to stay as a group of ten, it’s worth noting there’s not enough comfortable seating, and it’s a bit of a squeeze around the dining table for that many people. The small balcony is a nice spot to enjoy a sundowner, and the kitchen is well-appointed for self-catering.

The Influence of Light

This grand apartment is a rare city find, with its ornate interiors, picturesque terrace and central location. It’s an ideal spot if you’re visiting as a large group, with sharing-style bedrooms and a large living room for enjoying post-sightseeing drinks. That said, the apartment is a little compact in areas, with the kitchen being better suited for light bites and the dining room only seating six or eight at most. Location-wise, Plaça Catalunya, Passeig de Gràcia, and La Rambla are just a short walk away.

Catalunya Charm

If you're planning a fantastic trip to the vibrant city of Barcelona, you can't go wrong with this lavish apartment. Located in the Eixample district, one of the city's best-loved areas, it's the perfect place to kick back and relax between your sightseeing trips. 

The apartment is super spacious, with room for up to eight guests to settle in and get comfortable. You'll love the traditional touches throughout the home, from the wooden ceiling beams and the patterned tiles to the huge windows with sage green shutters. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook up a delicious feast using fresh local ingredients – don't forget a bottle of Rioja to accompany your meal. And there's no better place to relax at the end of a busy day than the large private balcony – get comfortable and watch the world go by below. 

Eixample is known for its grand boulevards and elegant architecture which houses a range of independent restaurants and boutiques. Fans of Gaudí's work will be delighted that the iconic Sagrada Familia is less than ten minutes away on foot, and Casa Mila is the same distance away in the opposite direction. And, if you want to explore other parts of the city, you can take the metro from Verdaguer Station – it's just a five-minute stroll away.

White Orchids

This apartment has a modern style and is located in the heart of Barcelona's bustling city centre, next to Plaça de Catalunya and Passeig de Gràcia. Just a five-minute stroll from the Barri Gòtic and El Born, as well as being surrounded by plenty of bars and restaurants, you really couldn't be asked to be better placed. The home also benefits from a Juliet balcony and a stylish living area with a sociable breakfast bar – ideal for morning coffees before setting off for a day of sightseeing. You're also a three-minute walk from the FGC train station and the Plaça Catalunya metro station, both connecting you to the entire city with ease. 

Franciscan Flavour

If you’re looking for an unforgettable stay in the heart of Barcelona, this dreamy penthouse apartment is just the ticket. Located a two-minute walk from Plaça Catalunya and boasting wide-sweeping views of it from its huge private terrace, this home is the very definition of the high life. Laid out over two floors (with one bedroom on the lower floor) you’ll enjoy plenty of privacy here when needed, as well as ample space for socialising. Of course, the terrace is the main place to be for gatherings over alfresco breakfasts and sunset drinks paired with homemade tapas. But the living room – with its large glass doors and sunny dining spot – is just as enviable when it comes to lounging and spending time together. While it’s hard to resist this home’s views, we guarantee that exploring your Eixample neighbourhood is just as fun as watching the hustle and bustle of Plaça Catalunya from above. Shop along Passeig de Gràcia (a one-minute walk), admire Gaudí’s Casa Batlló (an eight-minute walk) and take an afternoon stroll through Ciutadella Park (fifteen minutes away on foot). With La Sagrada Familia a thirty-minute walk away too and countless bars, shops and restaurants on your front step, you’ve got everything you need for a perfect city stay. 


Montsià

Neat and practical, this nifty studio is situated in the heart of Eixample. Its terrace looks out at a 19th-century water tower, which might not be one of the city’s most iconic landmarks but serves as a nice backdrop to a cosy cocktail evening. If you fancy a change of scenery, though, you’re within easy reach of Gaudí’s Casa Batlló, as well as Plaça de Catalunya where you’ll find plenty of shops and cafés to while away the day. And while the kitchen’s slightly limited, this home is surrounded by tonnes of bustling bars and restaurants, so you won’t have to venture far for a bite of something delicious to eat.

The City Flower

Stair Gates

Eixample is the residential heart of Barcelona and famous for its modernist architecture – a prime example being the handsome building that this apartment sits within.

Inside, the design is a little more contemporary than the exterior, although there's a preference for mid-century furnishings that are currently en vogue. The white walls and bare wooden floors are reminiscent of some of the city's modern art galleries, especially with the large art prints dotted about the place. As well as that, the kitchen is both sleekly finished and decently sized, just in case you fancy a home-cooked dinner at any point.

The home's biggest perk, however, has to be the long balcony that stretches across the front of the address and overlooks the street below. Although it's not large enough to sit out on, it's still more than big enough for a burst of fresh air and a spot of people-watching. The tall doors leading out to this space also bring plenty of natural light into the interior, as well.

When you want to see a little more of the city, this apartment puts you in an excellent location to do so. As well as a wide range of restaurants and nightlife venues in the immediate vicinity, there are some of Gaudi's most famous projects to be discovered within walking distance, including Casa Batlló under a mile away. Barceloneta Beach is only 2.3 miles away when the weather calls for sunbathing and swimming in the Med.

Life's a Happy Song

Temperature Control

The streets of Barcelona’s atmospheric Gothic Quarter are on your doorstep at this stylish city bolthole. Once you’ve had your fill of ancient cathedrals, secret squares and late-night tapas joints, perhaps hit the beach at Barceloneta, a leisurely walk away. It’s a studio-style apartment, but a room divider provides a little privacy between the bedroom area and dine-in living room. Plus, sliding doors can shut off the compact kitchen so fridge noise won’t keep you up at night. The bonus is the balcony which is petit but furnished with a bistro set.

El Albergue

With a direct view of Gaudí's masterpiece Casa Batlló, this luxury home's location is an indisputable superpower. So, take a seat on the balcony with the complimentary bottle of cava and admire the vista here or from one of the beds. But that's not all it has to offer – the lovely hosts have made it their mission to compete with the architectural masterpieces in Eixample. A love for peacocks and flamingos is reflected in the many paintings and statues around this home, while the contrast between turquoise and pink is a dominant theme. Many of the design choices pay homage to traditional Catalan architecture and design, making this home more than just a comfortable place to stay. This residence is spread out over two wings, so it's ideal for a group of friends or extended family looking for some privacy. If you’re not satisfied with just seeing Casa Batlló from your window –  it’s just a two-minute saunter away. This apartment is right on Paseo De Gracia with its museums and designer boutiques galore, while lively Plaça Catalunya is under a ten-minute stroll. Or, visit one of Barcelona's most iconic attractions, the Sagrada Familia, just over a twenty-minute walk away.
