And wherever the city takes you, this lovely apartment is the perfect setting to relax in style.

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.

Self Check-in / Check-out

Ideally located just a two-minute walk from bustling Passeig de Gràcia in the heart of Barcelona’s Eixample neighbourhood, this chic modern apartment is all set to offer you a comfortable city stay. 

We love the calm neutral palette in the living area offset by bright walls and glossy feature lightning, as well as the clever ruse of cabinetry to conceal the sleek kitchenette. Whether you’re chilling out on the sofa with a glass of Spanish red or gathering at the dining table for a celebratory meal, you’ll have no trouble making yourself at home here. 

The two comfortable bedrooms, meanwhile, offer a blissful night’s sleep in their plush beds, as well as memorable wake-ups thanks to their Juliet balconies with wide-sweeping views over the Eixample’s rooftops 

When you’re ready to go out and explore, make a beeline for Gaudí’s colourful Casa Batlló or walk twenty-five minutes to visit the city’s famous Sagrada Familia. You’re also an eight-minute walk from both Casa Milà and Plaça de Catalunya, while the Gothic Quarter is twenty minutes away on foot.

What a fabulous location this stylish apartment has in Barcelona – Gaudí's masterpiece Casa Batlló is a mere three-minute stroll away. If designer shopping is more your bag, then Paseo De Gracia is a six-minute saunter with its boutiques such as Gucci, Chanel and Versace. Lively Plaza Catalunya and Las Ramblas are both a ten-minute walk or another of Gaudí's iconic landmarks, the Sagrada Familia is just over twenty minutes on foot.

This home is housed in a grand period building. We love the open plan living space with its high ceilings, exposed brick walls and stunning steel, open-tread staircase – this place has a cool, warehouse vibe. Elsewhere in the apartment, you’ll find traditional features such as barrel-vaulted ceilings and Spanish tiles. Open the French doors onto the balcony with its views over the neighbourhood, whip up a fideuà in the modern kitchen and enjoy a Catalan feast at your dining table. This apartment is perfect for a group of friends, a family or professionals on business in this vibrant city.

One of architect Antoni Gaudí’s masterpieces, the Casa Milà, is just a twenty-minute walk or a nine-minute ride from this home. For some green space, head to Turó Park, with its elegant water features, pretty flower beds and winding paths, a seven-minute amble away. Or just take a stroll around this historic neighbourhood, home to Barcelona University and the restored 1930s market, Mercat del Ninot (eleven minutes on foot), which is great for seafood tapas.

Back at this home, we love the Moroccan inspired design inside – this and the living area’s vaulted ceilings and exposed beams were the first things to catch our eye. The earthy tones create an oasis of calm. Open up the french doors to the cosy balcony with its potted Sansevieria and cactus plants and listen to the sounds of Barcelona. Past the kitchen, there’s a dedicated workspace if you need to catch up on work or if you fancy writing a blog about your time in this fabulous city.

Gracious Oasis

Safe

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.

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.

Located on Rambla Catalunya – Barcelona’s main shopping street – this apartment puts you in a prime position to explore the city’s many central bars, restaurants and boutiques. Given its spot in the heart of the action, you may need to contend with some street noise throughout your stay. But there’s plenty to appreciate inside, not least of all the pad’s private terrace – perfect for sunny breakfasts and evening glasses of wine. The decor isn’t the most inspiring here but a sizeable kitchen will be appreciated by chefs of the group. And the home’s locale close to Casa Batlló, Casa Milà and Plaça de Catalunya makes sightseeing a cinch.

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

Single-Level Home

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

This location couldn't be better for a Barcelona getaway. The apartment is perched above the bustling Passeig de Gràcia, just a short stroll from shops, restaurants, and landmarks like Casa Batlló. You'll even enjoy Gaudí views of your own here – Casa Milà is right across the street, and you can admire the iconic architecture from the living room windows. We think this is an excellent option for friends and families – there's ample space for socialising in the lounge, the kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up tapas, and the main bedroom has a walk-in closet and sleek en-suite. In this central spot, street noise is to be expected, but we think it's worth it for the view.

Milà Mirage

Located in the trendy Eixample neighbourhood, on the arterial Passeig de Gràcia, this apartment has Barcelona’s best bits within easy reach. Gaudi's La Sagrada Família is no more than a twenty-minute walk away and you’re practically neighbours with Casa Milà and Casa Batlló. Saunter into the Gothic Quarter for charming medieval streets and authentic tapas bars or jump on the bus and make haste to the coast – Barceloneta Beach is only twenty minutes away. 

Inside the home, it’s modern and functional with everything you need to settle into city living. Put together quick meals in the kitchenette and dine in front of the large Juliette balcony doors. If a siesta is on the cards, quiet bedrooms guarantee a peaceful snooze. After busy afternoons spent exploring, curl up on the sofa with a glass of Rioja and reflect on the day’s events.

Not only is this apartment devastatingly chic, with sleek black lines, marble finishes, and touches of dusty pink, the location is ideal for exploring Barcelona. Although the apartment is so beautiful, you almost might not want to leave (almost...)

Spend your mornings making a coffee from the Nespresso machine, enjoying the morning sun on your private terrace. The sun loungers are perfect for a little relaxing me-time before heading out to the city. Located in the fashionable Eixample, you're not far from the action. All of Barcelona's hotspots are within walking distance, or you can hop on the metro. The stop's just a five-minute walk. Passeig de Gràcia, Plaça de Catalunya, La Rambla, Gran Vía are all within a twenty-minute walk and provide all of the architectural beauty, tapas bars, and sangria spots that your heart desires.

When your feet are starting to hurt and the sun's pounding down, getting back to the air-conditioned apartment for a quick breather will feel bliss. Head to the shared terrace to relax in the bubbling pool. No, it isn't a mirage. A swimming pool in one of the busiest neighbourhoods in Barcelona is a rare sight, but you deserve only the best.

After you've got ready for the night, head to Barceloneta beach. It's a fourty-seven-minute walk away, but the easiest way to get there is the metro, which takes just twenty-five minutes door-to-door. It's a great place to sunbathe by day, but even better to watch the sunset by dusk. The beach is lined with plenty of restaurants, bars, and clubs to whittle the night away.

Cafetiere

There’s a cool arty vibe to this bright and welcoming apartment, located in Barcelona’s L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample neighbourhood.

 From its vintage-inspired posters to its modernist Catalan floors, there’s a feeling of colourful fun and personality from the moment you walk through the door. We love the ample natural light that fills each room – especially the living area and main bedroom that boast French doors leading out onto Juliet balconies. Whether you perch here with your morning coffee or with a sundowner before hitting the city’s tapas bars, you’ll love looking out over your leafy street and across the Eixample’s rooftops. 

When it comes to sightseeing, you’ve got plenty of shops, restaurants and bars to explore right on your front step, while Gaudí’s elaborate Casa Milà is a twenty-minute walk away. You’re also a twenty-five-minute stroll from bustling Plaça d'Espanya and a thirty-five-minute walk from the famous Sagrada Familia.


Modernist Times

When your home is just a three-minute walk from the dragon-like facade of Casa Batlló, you can certainly say that you’re in the heart of Gaudí’s Barcelona. Inside, colour and decor work together to create a playful and quirky vibe. The bright green shutters on the French doors certainly look traditional, but contrast tastefully with modern interiors. Similarly, we love the minimalist furniture in the kitchen and living space, juxtaposed with busy, patterned feature wallpaper. Situated on one of the main veins of the city, this apartment is more than convenient. Sightseeing is easy from this location, as well as from the home itself – the balconette stretches from the lounge to the bedroom, allowing ample space to look out to fantastic views. Down on the street, you can walk two minutes to the Passeig de Gràcia metro to get all around the city. A stop you should definitely make is the thirteen-minute train trip to the Sagrada Familia. Let yourself be overwhelmed by its beauty and detail, before wandering back through the decorative blocks of the city, stopping in for tapas and wine en route home.

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

Balcony / Patio

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

With its trendy colour palette and sleek modern design, this Eixample apartment offers first-class urban living. 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. And when the day draws to a close, take the twenty-four-minute bus trip to Barceloneta Beach to watch the sun set over the glittering Mediterranean.

Let's kick off with the location first with this home – it's fantastic. The apartment is within walking distance of Plaça de Catalunya and the Arc de Triomf, as well as all the restaurants and bars of Eixample. Culture lovers, on the other hand, can visit the nearby Picasso Museum and the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art. The apartment itself has a Juliet-style balcony with views over the La Rambla de Catalunya. We should point out that if you're a group of four, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the already compact living room. But that's probably a small price to pay for such a great address.

A Look at Barcelona

Perched along handsome Gran Vía Avenue and just a stroll from the Gothic Quarter and all the must-see sights, the location of this apartment is spot-on. But it's the sense of space that impresses us the most about this L'Eixample bolthole. Each bedroom with an en-suite is as beautifully styled as the next, with Juliet balcony doors flooding in natural daylight. It's worth noting if ten guests share, it could be a squeeze fitting you all around the dining table. Though with countless buzzy tapas bars and restaurants just moments from your door, we wouldn't blame you for eating out instead.

Gran Vía Gem

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. 

Splash of Blue

Record Player

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. Catch up on work at the dedicated desk space here, taking breaks to perch by the Juliet balconies with a coffee. The dining table beckons hearty homemade tapas feasts when you’re not out sampling the local restaurants, while the bedroom is all ready to drift you into a good night’s sleep after a busy day in the city. 

Speaking of which, you’ve got plenty to see and do nearby with Carrer Enric Granados offering galleries, swish cafes, and luxury boutiques, as well as some of Gaudí’s most notable architectural masterpieces along famous Passeig de Gràcia.

Solange

This cosy Barcelona pad ticks all of our boxes, that's for sure. It's got plenty of Spanish charm – think colourful floor tiles, Juliet balconies, tall windows and leafy potted plants – yet there's a contemporary, bohemian feel that brings the design to the 21st-century. The first thing you'll notice is the impressive art piece hanging by the dining table, followed by the woven tapestry that cleverly hides the TV when it's not in use. It's the perfect space to hang out after a day exploring – listen to music on the vinyl player or Bluetooth speakers, share a bottle of Spain's finest wine around the table or lounge on the sofa for a Netflix movie night. When the weather is nice, step out onto the balcony and watch the hustle and bustle on the street below. In town on business? The separate study space has a custom-made desk perfect for working from home. And the location is top-notch, too. Eixample is famous for its old-town Catalonia charm. It has something for everyone, from art galleries and lively bars to delicious restaurants and open-air markets. Add in the proximity to tram stops and metro stations and you couldn't ask for a better spot to be.

Woven In Amber

This home’s minimal design complements the original features of the building – we love the high ceilings and unique curved corridors. Newly renovated, Shaking It is spotless. The communal area might be a little on the small side for its capacity of eight, but the open layout and natural light from the balcony windows make it a great place to socialise.  Conveniently located in the Eixample neighbourhood, the Plaça Catalunya, Sagrada Familia and Casa Battló are all nearby.

Shaking It

This stylish city centre home is perfectly nestled within short walking distance of some of Barcelona's best-loved sights and sounds. The ideal spot for tourists with a busy itinerary, this place has a luxury feel that's softened by a selection of beloved home comforts. From the super soft bed linen to the fully-equipped kitchen and lavish roll top bath, if you're hoping to experience Barcelona at its finest, take it from us, this spacious apartment is where you need to be.

With beautiful decor throughout, sensational city views and a selection of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars all less than a stone's throw away, this place really does have it all. 

Immerse yourself in Barcelona's rich cultural history as you visit the city's famed Casa Batlló. Proudly sat just a one-minute stroll from your new home from home, this must-see structure was designed by Antoni Gaudí in 1904 and has since become one of the city's most iconic landmarks.

Just a further four-minutes away, you can find yet another of Gaudi's masterpieces - La Pedrera. Here you can take some snap shots and soak up Barcelona's spectacular sights before heading to the city's most famous shopping mall, El Corte Inglés, for a much-needed spot of retail therapy.



Gaudi's Guesthouse

You can't get any more central than this Barcelona base – located in the thriving Eixample district. If you love being in the hustle and bustle of city life, then a stay here is sure to fulfil your needs. Minimal designs create a practical and comfortable space to relax in after the day or night's escapades in Barcelona. Since the home is located on the ground floor of a historic building, we particularly love the skylight in the kitchen which invites the Catalina sunshine into an otherwise shaded space. Meanwhile, carefully chosen design pieces, like the chandelier above the dining table and antique footstool in the bedroom, inject character into the interiors with charm and style. Lap up the local area with shops, restaurants and culture quite literally on your doorstep. You'll be positioned just a fifteen-minute walk (past a wealth of popular shops) from the Gothic Quarter and Gaudi's iconic architectural delights including the Casa Mila. 

Swinging It

With all the city's sightseeing hotspots just an amble away, the location of this stylish Eixample apartment is bang-on. Perfect for a large group of friends or a multi-generational family stay, the bedroom proportions are impressive. If ten of you share, the living space and dining table could feel like a squeeze. But with buzzy tapas bars and restaurants just moments from your door, we doubt you'll be eating in much anyway. In town for work? The desks dotted about the home will come in handy. As will Passeig de Gràcia Metro to blaze a trail across the city for meetings – it's just three minutes from your door.

The Light Eternal

Catalan tradition meets southeast Asian simplicity in this gorgeous apartment, right in the heart of lively Eixample Dreta. Every inch is warm, inviting and bright – it all feels very natural, with jute accents, Juliet balconies, cream-coloured walls and rich wood tones. We don't know about you, but we'd love to come home to this soothing space after a long day out and about. It's never too early to put a record on the vinyl player and lounge on the macramé hammock, while the quaint balcony overlooking the local market is the perfect spot to savour a glass of Spain's finest wine in the evening sun. After dinner, sink into the squishy sofas and catch up on your favourite Netflix shows, or, if you need to get some work done, the desks in the third bedroom make excellent workspaces. 

Location-wise, this charming neighbourhood is characterised by the famous Gaudi-inspired architecture, the most famous of which are Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, both fifteen minutes away on foot. There's something for everyone here – outstanding restaurants serving a range of cuisines, fashionable shopping around Paseo de Gracia and trendy cocktail bars if you want to experience Barcelona's nightlife. Plus, all the must-see sights are either within walking distance or easily reached via public transportation – you can't do much better than that.

Rooftop Terrace

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

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.

Fireplace

Sleek and illuminated, this modern home invites you to experience Barcelona from your own contemporary universe. You can feel the Eixample neighbourhood energy from your private balcony - a prime spot to revitalise after a day scaling the artworks at the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art - only a twenty-minute walk from your apartment.

The city’s cultural depth and diversity, reflected in this apartment’s refined aesthetic, have been intentionally designed to maximise your city break. The glossy marble kitchen is kitted out for quick bites as well as home-hosted dinners - the island is situated so you can share a glass of natural wine you picked up from Món Vínic with your loved ones while relaxing at the wooden dining table. What this home does so well is create a harmonious system of thought within its design - think traditional, high cornice ceilings combined with a modern blend of hardwood, parquet and local tile flooring. Nothing will feel better than sinking into your sheets in your dusky blue bedroom, trees grazing your windowsill, after a day exploring the Gaudí sights.

We love how well positioned this apartment is – take yourself on a tour of the shopping district and El Corte Inglés and then treat yourself to a flavourful array of Spanish pintxos. If you’re here to experience the city’s culinary highlight by El Bulli veteran chefs, make sure to get your dinner booking locked in at Disfrutar for an unmissable, Michelin Mediterranean experience. 

Contemporary Cosmos

With Urgell Metro station a five-minute walk away, this apartment is a great base for families and friends wanting to explore Barcelona with ease. Nestled in the Eixample neighbourhood, there’s a whole host of eateries nearby for sampling some authentic Spanish cuisine – that said, the apartment’s kitchen is equipped with everything you need to whip up a paella or two at home. After a long day taking in the city’s sights, the whirlpool bath will be a welcome sight – just the spot to soothe tired feet. 

A Barcelona Sun

Perched on the bustling Passeig de Gràcia, this apartment is just across the street from Gaudí's famous Casa Battló. You're so close that you can spot the fantastical architecture from the balcony – there may be nowhere to sit, but you can't beat the views. The home consists of two separate apartments connected by a hallway. That means you'll have two kitchens, two living areas, and double the amount of space. Factor in the central location – this pad is within walking distance of many landmarks, shops, and restaurants – and you can see why it caught our eye.

Eyes on Batlló

What’s better than waking up to a fresh cup of coffee? Waking up to coffee accompanied by views over one of the world’s most beautiful cities. At this sleek Barcelona bolthole, you’ll have the perfect backdrop for your morning pick-me-up, courtesy of your supreme vantage point from the sixth floor of a classic apartment block. While we love the airy free-flowing living and dining area, we think you’ll want to spend most of your time exploring: get your Gaudí architecture fix at Casa Batlló and La Pedrera (both within a five-minute stroll), stand in awe of the mammoth Plaça de Catalunya (ten minutes on foot), and hop on the metro at Passeig de Gràcia station – practically on your doorstep – to explore the rest of the city. Come dinner time, head out to the local tapas bars or whip up your own Catalan feast in the super spacious kitchen, before settling in for a movie or to catch up on your favourite shows on the digital TV.

Eixample Lookout

We love the way the sunshine streams into this smart, modern home on the corner of one of Barcelona's most exclusive streets. Set in a typical period building, but with clean, contemporary styling, it's a fabulous choice if you want to be at the very heart of this bustling city. The spacious, open-layout living room has views of Carrer de la Diputació and the Rambla de Catalunya, and it's just steps from some of the best bars, cafes and restaurants in Barcelona.

If you're cooking at home, your apartment has a fully kitted-out kitchen with a dining table for six, and if you're working from home there's a little desk in the corner of the room. Both bedrooms are bright and uncluttered, and they'd suit a small family as well as a group of friends – with a dedicated bathroom for each room.

Café Carajillo

Light and shade play off each other here to create a beautifully peaceful setting. Located in Barcelona’s central L'Esquerra de l’Eixample neighbourhood – packed full of grand architecture, art galleries, swish cafes, and luxury boutiques – you’ll have the heart of the city on your doorstep and a wonderfully comfortable base from which to enjoy it all. 
 
We love the soothing beach influences in the living area’s decor – from the earthy colour palette to the rattan accents – as well as the ample natural light that pours in through the French doors leading out onto Juliet balconies. Perch here with your morning coffee or evening glass of Spanish wine while people-watching from your privileged position. The dining table here beckons homemade tapas feasts aplenty cooked up in the modern kitchen, while the desk space provides the ideal spot to catch up on work or some creative thinking while a record plays on the sound system. 
 
The two bedrooms, meanwhile, have been curated with this same stylish boho touch, and there’s another Juliet balcony in the second bedroom so you can enjoy a hit of Spanish sun first thing in the morning. 
 
When it comes to sightseeing nearby, walk eighteen minutes to visit Gaudí’s Casa Milà, or stroll twenty-four minutes to explore bustling Plaça de Catalunya. You’re also an eighteen-minute walk from Mercat de Sant Antoni, while Casa Batlló – another Gaudí masterpiece – is twenty minutes on foot from your door. 


Mellow Musings

Modern and bright, this ideally located apartment on Rambla de Catalunya puts you in the centre of the city’s action while also offering a comfortable base with gorgeous views of your Eixample neighbourhood. 
 
Inside, modern design meets bohemian chic with wicker ornaments and colourful art on the walls and ample natural light pouring into the living area from the French doors. Open these up to reveal a pretty Juliet balcony – the ideal spot to perch with your morning coffee or evening glass of Spanish wine while watching the comings and going of the Rambla de Catalunya below. 
 
The bedroom is just as bright with its white walls and pared-back furnishings, while a second set of French doors opens onto yet another Juliet balcony – perfect for catching some rays first thing after waking up. With a sleek bathroom complete with a rainfall shower, you’re all set for a carefree, relaxing time. 
 
Go for a stroll along the bustling boulevard right outside your door or visit the Museu Egipci de Barcelona, a six-minute walk away. Architecture enthusiasts, meanwhile, will go gaga for the many Gaudí masterpieces within easy reach, including Casa Batlló (a three-minute walk), Casa Milà (an eight-minute walk) and Barcelona’s emblematic Sagrada Familia (a twenty-five-minute walk). You’re also an eight-minute stroll from Plaça de Catalunya, while the Gothic Quarter is twenty minutes away on foot. 


Springfold

Interiors are as chic as they come at this stylish bolthole set in the vibrant neighbourhood of L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample. With the happening restaurant and shopping scene of Rambla de Catalunya around the corner and all the sightseeing hotspots within easy walking distance, the location is spot-on too. And if you're not sold yet, you will be once you've seen the apartment's large private terrace leading off the living space and elegant bedrooms. A rare find in central Barcelona, it's a prime spot for pre-dinner drinks.

Catalunya Sanctuary

This home emanates a true sense of relaxation. With a playful interchange between the gentle white colours, rough wood, and exposed brick, Spectre has a lot to offer for lovers of rustic minimalism. Natural Light is a key element in creating a pleasant, warm atmosphere, aided by the semi-transparent curtains. Located in Eixample, the heart of the action in Barcelona, Spectre is surrounded by delicious cafes and restaurants – not to mention the numerous central sights, including the famous Casa Batlló.

Spectre

As well as Gaudí’s influential and iconic buildings, the Eixample region has wide boulevards with excellent shopping, kerbside cafés, and charming restaurants to keep you busy. When you’re staying here, it’s far too easy to run into striking architecture at every turn. And at just an eight-minute walk from shimmering Casa Batlló, this home makes it even easier.

Arriving at its yellow entrance, this standout block is built in a traditional, Spanish Colonial style. This old-world grandeur continues through the front door, in majestic hardwood, with a solid marble staircase leading up to your apartment – but the interiors are a pleasant contrast.

Pout yourself a tempranillo and take a wander around this modern, Scandi-style home. Huge windows lined with railings along a balconette are perfect for peering over with your wine glass in hand. The zen-like lounge offers somewhere understated and calming for you to relax in after exploring the bustling locale. A sleek, matte grey kitchen tops it all off – a lovely little spot where you can prepare ‘pa amb tomàquet’ and a bowl of juicy Spanish olives.
