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 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.

Nestled in Les Corts, this Barcelona apartment is an ideal base for families on a Spanish sojourn. The private balcony, though cosy, is a welcome spot for morning coffee, while the kitchen invites guests to test their culinary skills – just don’t forget to pick up some local produce from Les Corts market. Don’t fancy cooking? You’ll find a whole host of eateries in the local area, and if you feel like a trip across the city, nearby metro stations are waiting to whisk you away.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

The Eliza

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

Step-Free Access

Located in the vibrant neighbourhood of Eixample, this stylish apartment provides an oasis of calm in the heart of the city.

Stepping through the old wooden doors and into this building feels inspiring – it's steeped in tradition with echoes of Spain’s impressive architectural heritage. And the elegance continues inside this apartment. Period features sit alongside luxurious details creating a sense of warmth and character – making it easy to settle in and feel at home. Whether you're preparing drinks in the kitchen or simply watching the sunlight dance across the treetops – this is the kind of space that enriches the moment. 

Outside, make the short stroll on to Passeig de Gracia to admire Gaudi’s Casa Milà and then head towards Sagrada Família – a twenty–minute walk. Make a refreshing pause in one of the local restaurants or bars – this is a wonderful way to savour the atmospheric charm of Barcelona. And wherever the city takes you, this lovely apartment is the perfect setting to relax in style. 

The Selena 

Throws

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

We love this home in Barcelona – it boasts some of the best views over Gaudi's iconic Casa Milà and L'Eixample. Housed in a 120-year-old renovated building, floor-to-ceiling windows let the daylight in, while traditional tile details and a mixture of old and new furniture give this place soul. Prepare some tapas in the sleek, grey kitchen and enjoy at the dining table or head to L'Eixample’s celebrated dining scene, just over a five-minute walk away. If the vistas from your apartment of Casa Milà have whetted your appetite to see some more, then it's a mere three-minute stroll. Or, browse the high-end boutiques in the area, then head to La Rambla de Sant Jose (also known as La Rambla de les Flors) and pick up some flowers. You'll undoubtedly be glad you picked this apartment.

Nestled in the neighbourhood that’s home to the iconic Camp Nou, this is an ideal base in Barcelona for football fans in particular. That said, there are plenty of sightseeing spots to explore in the local area, along with Spanish eateries and trendy boutiques to occupy your time. Back home, you can kick back and relax on the private terrace. But the best place to soak up the sun? We’d say it’s the communal swimming pool – a rare treat in the heart of the city.

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

Right in the heart of L'Antiga Esquerra de l’Eixample, this apartment delivers a great location along with style and comfort. Designed to make you feel at home right away, the open-plan living room makes it easy to stretch out while listening to your favourite playlist. There is also a dedicated desk for remote workers and the bedrooms have everything you could need to switch off and enjoy total privacy – the main bedroom also comes with an adjoining office and ensuite bathroom. Outside, it’s just a short stroll to Casa Milà on Passeig de Gràcia and you’ll find great public transport links. 

Muse of the Moment 

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

Situated just off the L'Esquerra de l'Eixample, this well-positioned apartment is a gorgeous gem, perfect as a base for a family or a group of friends visiting Barcelona. You’ll be able to explore the historic sights on foot, knowing that your elegant pad awaits you upon your return. 

After a day of dashing about, you'll be welcomed by the bright and cosy living room, decorated with jungle-themed details, inviting you to kick back and relax with an evening of movies with your loved ones. You can also just pop on a record and enjoy a glass of wine out on the balcony. If you don’t feel like eating out, the sleek and modern kitchen will make putting together a delicious meal a work of moments. 

Should you have some work to catch up on, or simply feel like having a moment to yourself, there’s also a lovely workspace, with a handsomely crafted desk and stylish shelves. For a night of restful sleep head over to the comfy bedrooms – factor in the spa-like ambience of the bathrooms, including one with a bathtub, and you’ve got everything you may need for a relaxing stay.

On a mission to beat any hotel, this home provides an impeccable level of service. This is not a humble and personable holiday stay, but a slick operation with a 24/7 concierge that will offer you a pillow catalogue when you check-in. Filled with designer furniture and high-quality appliances, it's a great choice for those who want more autonomy with on-demand hotel service whenever they need it. And that doesn't mean compromising on style – you'll find high ceilings, statement lighting and even a carefully selected collection of books, creating a sleek ambiance with just a hint of retro charm. And, with this home, you get more than just a place to sleep and eat – how about taking a dip in the rooftop pool or working out in the gym before hitting the sauna? You're also perfectly located to see the sights, including Gaudí's Casa Milà and La Sagrada Familia, and the surrounding Eixample neighbourhood is full of one-off boutiques and restaurants. 

The Epicurean Way

You’ll struggle to find an apartment more central than this, sitting just off the Plaça Catalunya and a three-minute mosey to the leafy Las Ramblas. Its homespun living area and inviting bedrooms make for relaxing spaces away from the hubbub. Open up the French doors to be enveloped by a warm Spanish breeze as you tuck into a tasty breakfast. Throw something together in the kitchen or pick up a bite to eat from the café around the corner. Put on your sandals, slap on your sun cream and take to Barcelona’s historic streets. You’re minutes from the modernist sights of Eixample and just under twenty from the Picasso Museum. When it’s gloriously sunny out – which is practically all year round – Barceloneta Beach is a ten-minute cab ride away.

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

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

Playground

Eclectic and bold, this contemporary artistic penthouse invites you to experience Barcelona from your own creative universe. You can feel the Eixample neighbourhood energy from both of your private roof terraces - prime spots to revitalise after a day admiring the artworks at the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art - only a seventeen-minute walk from your home.

The city’s cultural depth and diversity, reflected in this apartment’s dynamic aesthetic, have been intentionally designed to maximise your city break. Unique and diverse artworks canvas the walls of your bright apartment, whilst a host of collectables and considered antiquities add personal depth to this visionary aesthetic. The glossy stainless steel kitchen is kitted out for quick bites as well as home-hosted dinners - the central dining table is situated perfectly to share a bottle of orange wine you picked up from Vella Terra, a ten-minute walk away. What this home does so well is create an original system of thought within its design - prioritising every moment you have in the home. Nothing will feel better than cosying up on the huge custom bed in the cinema room for a movie after a day exploring the Gaudí sights.

We love how well positioned this apartment is – take yourself on an architectural walking tour of Gaudí’s most famous buildings and then treat yourself to a flavourful array of Spanish pintxos. If you’re here to experience the city’s culinary highlights, check out Morro Fi for savoury bites or Lomo Alto for a dry-aged meat affair, just fifteen minutes from your penthouse.

L'Artiste

Balcony / Patio

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

Just a short walk from the bustling Avinguda Diagonal, this apartment is perfectly placed for exploring Barcelona. Take a stroll down to Plaça de Catalunya, passing Casa Milà on the way – it's a half-hour on foot – or wine and dine at the restaurants, bars and authentic food markets dotted around the neighbourhood. Want to venture a little farther? Gràcia Station is eight minutes on foot, so you'll be able to zip around the city with ease.

After an adventure-filled day, come home and rest your feet in this comfortable flat. Open a bottle of wine and share a glass or two around the dining table alongside tapas and a delicious feast if you're in the mood to cook. On summer evenings, step out onto the Juliet balcony and catch the last of the day's rays before climbing into the cosy beds for a good night's sleep. The layout is roomy and bright, with a few characterful features adding some classic Catalan personality – we're especially fond of the stone arch in the main bedroom. And with the option to book wine tastings, guided tours, cooking classes, private chefs and more, we can't think of a better spot to call home.

Dappled Onyx

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

Classic Barcelonan architecture is at the heart of this home with domed brick and beamed ceilings, wood floors and French doors giving way to a wrought-iron Juliet balcony. Located in elegant Gràcia, you’ve got some of the city’s most iconic sights within easy reach, not to mention a beautiful base to call home here. 

Perch by the Juliet balcony with your morning coffee as you take in the hustle and bustle of the street below. Then, whip up a hearty Spanish omelette in the sleek kitchen before setting off to see the sights. You’re within walking distance of Gaudí’s famous Casa Milà and Casa Vicens, as well as Plaça de la Vila de Gràcia and Avinguda Diagonal. After a day of sightseeing, come back home to relax on the large sofa with a glass of Spanish wine before setting out to discover the local tapas bars or enjoy a meal at home. When you’re ready to turn in for the night, the pared-back yet beautifully curated bedrooms are ready to ease you into a dreamy night’s sleep, sure to leave you rested and raring to go for another day of fun in the city. 


Branches of Time

Mini Bar

Located in Barcelona's lively Eixample district, this apartment is fit for groups looking to be in the heart of it all. Just a short stroll will take you to Rambla de Cataluña's excellent shopping and dining options, while the cultural landmarks of Gaudí's Casa Batlló and Casa Milà are a fifteen-minute walk from your home. The bedrooms are light and comfortable, although they do vary in size. You've also got a private balcony, a fully equipped kitchen and an open dining area for group breakfasts and morning coffees before setting off for a busy day of sightseeing.

Just looking at it, you wouldn’t expect Pulpo Gallego to be on the ground floor. It has most of the trappings of a loft, and wouldn’t feel too out of place in Williamsburg or Greenpoint. Maite’s done a lovely job setting it up. It’s been renovated in the past year or so, and even though it has a small and unusually shaped footprint, it easily feels large enough. You also have the benefit of being in Eixample, so getting around the city, either on foot or by public transport, is very simple.


Pulpo Gallego

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

In swanky Pedralbes, this apartment has everything you need for a fuss-free stay. All the essentials are included – a modern kitchen, a work area for digital nomads, and a comfortable bedroom with a record player. It's worth noting that air conditioning is only available in the lounge and that two guests will sleep on a sofa bed. Still, with access to a shared pool and a private balcony ideal for sundowners, that's not a bad deal. When you're ready to explore, you'll find a metro station a short walk away. Güell Pavilions, Parc de Pedralbes, and Camp Nou Stadium are also within walking distance.

Pedralbes Prize

Set in Barcelona's happening La Dreta de l'Eixample, the location of this central apartment is bang-on. Famed for its iconic Gaudí architecture, chic boutiques and countless tapas bars, you'll never be short of things to do in this charming neighbourhood. When it's time to put your feet up, this surprisingly roomy apartment is a joy to return home to. The apartment's small terrace leading off two of the bedrooms is a nice touch for evening aperitivos. And you're all sorted for work or study with a dedicated office space tucked away in a stylish corner of the home.

Gaudi Dreaming

Experience Spain's most vibrant city from above in this stylish penthouse pad. With a terrace that's almost as big as its inside space, you can soak up the sunshine while the urban streets hum along below. And when you need a heat break, rustic Saharan-inspired interiors create a warm and inviting ambience. Leave the double doors open and relax surrounded by earthy tones, organic ceramics and pale wooden accents. The sleek matte back kitchen is a joy to cook in, fitted with all the facilities culinary connoisseurs need. 

Located in Barcelona's popular Dreta de l’Eixample neighbourhood, this home offers all the benefits of city-centre living. Explore nearby historic lanes, weaving your way in and out of matchbox shops and quirky cocktail bars. The famed Las Ramblas is just a five-minute walk away – this energetic tree-lined boulevard leads directly to the Gothic Quarter, where a selection of traditional tapas bars and medieval landmarks await.

Saharan Heights

Wandering the streets of Eixample and into this home feels like stepping into the heart of traditional life in Spain. And yet it has been thoughtfully designed to bring a sense of luxurious ease to your city stay. 

This modern and elegant space has been created using sustainable methods – and the sense of care for the environment can be felt throughout. You’ll love opening the doors onto the central courtyard and feeling the natural elements – this is a wonderful place to begin the day. 

Anyone looking to experience life as a local will love this home. Outside, the architecture on the Passatge Mercader creates a truly unique atmosphere. No doubt art lovers will find themselves drawn to Casa Batlló – Gaudí’s masterpiece is only an eight–minute walk away. Other highlights include the Plaça de Catalunya – a thirteen–minute walk and the medieval streets of the Gothic Quarter. 

However you spend your time in the city, this home makes the perfect spot to relax and reflect on the beauty of Barcelona. 

Saffron Light

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

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

Attention to detail makes this Barcelona apartment a special one. This beautifully decorated space is full of natural light, thanks to the multiple balconies. You might hear some noise from the street below, but that often comes with being in such a central location. The Eixample neighbourhood is full of bars, cafes, tapas spots, and international restaurants to explore. And it’s easy to get to the rest of the city too with great transport links. Back home, the cosy decor makes this a lovely place to come back to. The well-equipped, large kitchen is particularly good for those staying long-term – you can even bring your pet along to really make it home.

Dim Light

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

This apartment offers a central location in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter and a practical pad to call your own. Just a short stroll from Barcelona Cathedral, Plaza Catalunya and the various shops, restaurants and bars, you really couldn't be better placed for exploring the city. The home's bedrooms vary in size, with limited space so you'll want to pack light. That said, we think the modern design, which benefits from traditional Catalan touches, makes for a lovely home to come back to after a busy day of sightseeing. 

The Making of a City

Baby Bath

Private Parking

Bright and welcoming, this apartment is perfectly suited to a family of four or a small group of friends. It’s located in Les Corts, close to Camp Nou and lots of great restaurants, and with excellent transport links to the rest of Barcelona – sightseeing is a breeze here. The apartment has everything needed for a comfortable city break, including a kitchen and dining space, and a balcony for enjoying your morning coffee in the sunshine. Both bedrooms are cosy and peaceful.
