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.

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

Wellness & Fitness

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.

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.

Situated a stone's throw from Passeig de Gràcia, this home is at the heart of the action. You'll find it on Gran de Gracia, nestled between Gracia and Eixample. Here, you're surrounded by an array of upmarket boutiques, bars and eateries, while Gaudi's masterpieces, Casa Milà and La Pedrera, are a ten-minute stroll away. Though being a six-minute walk from two metro stops, the city really is yours for the taking.

We love this home's elegant design aesthetic. Inside, it's a timeless canvas of high ceilings and wooden floors adorned with regal touches, from the stained glass windows to the glistening glass chandelier. The open-plan living area offers the perfect place for relaxation, including a cosy l-shaped sofa and a sweet balcony with picturesque views. After a restful slumber in the lavish bedrooms, start your days roosted here, sipping your morning coffee and soaking up the sun. After busy days exploring the city, gather around the dining table for a delicious feast prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen before slipping out for a walk at sunset.

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.

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.

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.

Ronda Universitat is close to Plaça Catalunya and the Modernist sights of Eixample. The central location of this convenient address is a great asset and if this is your first visit to Barcelona – it doesn't get much better than this. Enjoy being within walking distance of all the best shops, restaurants, and cultural sights including Casa Batllo and Gaudi's other spectacular works of art (a ten-minute walk away). With so much to see and do nearby, catching some respite from the city is easy here – as a soothing colour palette with calming wood tones and soft furnishings create a space boasting comfort and practicality. Sink into the plush "L" shaped sofa with a cup of tea, before running a bath and unwinding for a quiet night at home. For evenings when you're feeling most energised, lap up the ease of going on nights out too – it would be rude not to make the most of being able to walk out here after all. And of course, if you do plan on venturing further afield in the city, you'll have bus stops and metro stations within less than five minutes reach too.

With a private concierge, access to a gym and a sauna too, this apartment is more of a mission to outdo luxury hotels than a cosy holiday home. Upon check-in, you'll be given a pillow catalogue to make sure your neck and head are well-rested, and that's just one example of the high-end service on offer. This home is built with a love for the finer things, so expect designer furniture, rainfall showers, and a highly curated selection of artworks. Our favourite personal touch is the well-stocked bookshelf with titles in all genres, while the shared swimming pool gives you fantastic views across Barcelona's rooftops. Getting around couldn't be simpler from this location in Eixample, which is home to Gaudí's Casa Milà and Sagrada Familía along with countless restaurants, boutiques and bars. 

The Epicurean Spirit

Situated in the residential Les Tres Torres neighbourhood, less than a fifteen-minute drive from the Serra de Collserola Natural Park and thirty minutes from Ciutat Vella, Barcelona’s downtown core, this apartment offers the best of both worlds. When you’re not weaving through the Gothic Quarter’s medieval streets, standing in awe of Gaudí’s modernist architecture, or filling up on tapas in long-standing bars, you’ll be following the scenic trails that run alongside the Vallvidrera Reservoir. 

Back at home, an inviting living space with comfy leather couch is the perfect place to unwind after a busy day spent exploring the city and beyond. Curl up with a book plucked from the shelves before watching the world pass by from your Juliet balcony. And when it’s time for something to eat, the fully-equipped kitchen makes light work of knocking up Catalan-inspired dishes.

Located on one of the main veins of Barcelona’s sprawling network of streets – Avinguda Diagonal – this apartment has an air of importance. The local area is home to Gaudí masterpieces such as Casa Milà, an eleven-minute walk away, and this striking flat certainly does its best to compete. Starting in the living space, the exposed brickwork of the vaulted ceiling is sure to catch your eye. Colourful, oversized, abstract art adorns the walls, and art-deco-style furniture invites you in to settle down. All of this is illuminated by natural light flooding in from the glass doors of your private terrace, our favourite part of the home. Sip a glass of wine next to the olive tree while you gaze out to views of modernist buildings and blue skies. If you head back down to ground level, check out the main thoroughfare to find an array of vibrant bars and restaurants where you can spend the evening. As the Diagonal metro stop is only a six-minute walk from home, you’ll be able to explore other areas of the city too. Did someone say ‘beach day’?

Manzanilla

Fabulously located in the heart of Eixample, within easy walking distance of many of Barcelona's key sights, with a beautiful living space full of lovely period details and a spacious master-bedroom with its own private terrace, this home is a delight. Bedrooms two and three are both extremely small, but we won't hold this against an otherwise fab home. The living space might just be home to the most beautiful flooring in the Plum Collection – we are obsessed!

With its vibrant street art and foodie culture, this Sant Antoni apartment offers a central base for exploring Barcelona. You'll find this home nestled perfectly, just a seven-minute stroll from the neighbourhood's beautiful thirteenth-century open-air market. Swing by to taste-test its delectable array of food stalls, find hidden vintage gems or, on Sundays, leaf through second-hand books and magazines.

With its stylish design and dynamic oil paintings, imported all the way from South Africa, this home impresses with its eclectic and considered aesthetic. We especially love the light-filled and open-plan living space, creating an inviting atmosphere where you'll love spending time after a day of gallery hopping. After a restful slumber, spend mornings roosted at the dining table for breakfast, prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen, to fuel up for another day of sightseeing. 

Here, you're a fifteen-minute walk from Plaça de Catalunya and La Rambla, while the closest metro station is three minutes away on foot. After exploring Barcelona’s famous Mercado de la Boqueria you’ll be in need of nourishment - our pick is Els Sortidors del Parlament, a quick ten minutes from the market, a contemporary bodega offering wine from the barrel and small Catalan tapas plates - their gourmet shop is the perfect gift spot. From there, you’re right in the thick of Sant Antoni where you’ll find the city’s wrought-iron architectural highlights and experience the true vibrancy of the neighbourhood.

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.

Discover Barcelona from the residential location of Hospitalet de Llobregat – offering a tranquil experience set back far enough from the bustle of the city yet close enough to enjoy the city's attractions with convenience. 

Without a shadow of a doubt, the rooftop terrace is one of the home's best features. Up here, you can relax, refresh and reset your mind from life's monotonous routines by soaking up the sunshine at every opportunity. You'll find a heated plunge pool for bathing in the open air as well as plenty of perching spots to unwind with a glass of sangria in hand. In fact, why not rustle up your own meals and dine alfresco? 

Alternatively, you'll also have the option to dine inside – and the dining area doubles up as a desk space, too, should you need to work from home. With a modern and minimal aesthetic across the space, relaxing here couldn't be easier and balancing cultural days out exploring Barcelona with all-important rest and relaxation is strongly encouraged. 

Nearby, you'll find the neighbourhood of Montjuic, boasting an array of "pinchos bars" offering small Basque tapas. Meanwhile, you'll be within easy reach of Barcelona's monuments, parks and shopping opportunities and beautiful sandy beaches via easily accessible public transport.

This minimally furnished home is perfect for those who like their space. Dancing Shoes is impeccable, sleek, and boasts enviable great urban views over Eixample – seeing the postcards sights of Barcelona will be effortless from your base on Avinguda Diagonal. Although this home doesn't have a lot of characterful furniture, we still liked the high ceilings and the abundance of natural light.

Get comfortable in the stylish living room, where you’ll be able to enjoy evenings of movies and delicious meals at the dining table.

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. 

Palm Dream

With its elegant styling and artistic spirit, this apartment welcomes you to an inspiring stay in the heart of Barcelona.

Located in the leafy neighbourhood of Gràcia, this is a wonderful place to experience life as a local. From the natural light to the simple furnishings, it’s the kind of space that invites a sense of ease and relaxation to the fast pace of city life. And whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee on the patio, reading a book or sitting around the table – it’s the small details that enrich this space with warmth. 

Outside, wind your way through the charming plazas of Gràcia – there are some wonderful local shops, restaurants, and cafés here. Plus it’s only a ten–minute stroll onto Passeig de Gràcia, where you can admire the impressive work of Antoni Gaudí. 

The Modern Painter

Hot Tub

The location of this elegant home couldn't be better – it's surrounded by shops, popular restaurants, and world-famous sights, but tucked away in a quiet side street in the middle of Passeig de Gràcia. Even though the balcony faces the street, the well-placed shutters keep it private and give the communal areas a touch of industrial design. Taffy teal is all about comfort and will help you relax in with luxurious soft furnishings, excellent appliances, and a marble bath.

This stunning penthouse is located in Les Corts, close to great restaurants and shopping, and with excellent transport links to Barcelona's main attractions. It’s a haven of relaxation, with its neutral colour scheme, plush bedding, and chic decor. There’s a tranquil terrace where you can dine alfresco and soak up the sun, and a well-equipped kitchen that makes cooking a breeze. This elegant apartment has everything you might need for a comfortable and convenient urban escape. 

Barcelona Penthouse

Private Washing Machine

Situated in Barcelona’s vibrant Eixample Dreta neighbourhood, this sumptuously stylish apartment offers an alluring retreat for you and your cohort. You can feel the city’s eclectic energy from the private balcony, which is a prime spot to revitalise after a day of perusing the Paseo de Gracia and Rambla Catalunya, a stone’s throw from your apartment.

Combining influences of the Saharan Desert with Catalonian concepts, this space exudes elegance with its magnetic ambience and a rich yet muted colour scheme. Sip your morning coffee on the balcony, overlooking the buzzy streets below, before stepping out to soak up Gaudi’s architectural masterpieces – take a short stroll over to visit Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, then hop on the metro to see the impressive Sagrada Familia. If you’re not dining in one of the city’s eclectic tapas bars, enjoy a mood-lit dinner in your mid-century-style dining room before spinning a record and clinking glasses of orange wine in the slick living room. 

Black Sands Ivory Skies

Looking to the African desert for design inspiration, this Eixample apartment is dominated by earthy tones, natural materials and a few houseplants to add a burst of bright colour. Other aspects are a little more contemporary – you only have to look at the minimalist white kitchen to see what we mean.

Even though it sits among one of Barcelona's most bustling districts, there's something innately relaxing about the space, whether you're listening to a vinyl record with a breeze blowing in over the Juliet balcony or enjoying a meal cooked with locally bought ingredients on the round dining table.

And when it comes to sightseeing, you don't have far to venture from your front door. The mighty Sagrada Familia is less than a quarter of an hour's walk, as is Parc de la Ciutadella in the opposite direction. You're especially well served by cafes and restaurants in the surrounding streets, too.

Spanish Sahara

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.

Housed in a Belle Epoque, 19th-century building this apartment's interior is just as striking as the outside. A steady theme of chocolatey tones paired with minimalistic furnishings made us feel like we were in the home of a deep thinker. Still, there are small details that breathe some warmth into the flat – the Catalan hydraulic tiles on the floor, the modern art on the walls, and the red velvet seats on the balcony. The balcony has a perfect people-watching view over the leafy boulevard below. The kitchen as black as backstage at a theatre and dramatically downlit, but it's not all style over substance as the cupboards are packed with everything you could want for self-catering. Should you need to catch up on work, the second bedroom doubles as an office. When it comes to clocking off you couldn't be better placed with Passeig de Gracia one block away, where Gaudí's masterpiece 'La Pedrera' and famous hotels like Omm and Hotel Casa Fuster reside. The apartment itself is in the 'Cuadrat d'Or' (Golden Square), an area packed with bars, restaurants and high-end shops galore.

The Eureka Moment

Serene and centred, this modern apartment places you in the heart of bustling Dreta de l’Eixample. Here, you'll be within easy walking distance of both Casa Milà and the Cathedral of Barcelona, with the tapas bars, authentic restaurants and stylish shops surrounding the Plaça de Catalunya, just a short stroll away. Inside, there's the addition of two desks for those wanting to catch up on work during their stay. The kitchen isn’t the biggest, but it has all you need to rustle up a tasty meal after a busy day – to be enjoyed out on the private terrace.

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 

Two balconies – one at the front and one at the back of this apartment – provide beautiful views of the neighbourhood and you can even see a little bit of the sea on sunny days. Up on the top floor, natural light floods the rooms. The open living space in soft grey and teal velvet is particularly sunny. Glass doors lead out to the front terrace where waxy green banana leaves sprout from planters and dining is set for four. There’s a lazy hammock in the corner too, so you can take in that rooftop view all the way to the Sagrada Familia. You'll be able to plan your holiday from the comfort of the terrace as Barcelona spreads like a map before you. Located only minutes away from Plaça Catalunya, you'll have easy access to all parts of the city. 

Phrenology

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. 

La Modernista

Just a few blocks from Plaza de España and in walking distance of both Old Town and Barcelona's port, it's no exaggeration to say this two-storey home puts you in the centre of the action. We were fond of the modern interior, pleasingly combing with the traditional vaulted ceilings. The shaded terrace is a particularly nice touch, allowing you to grab some fresh air while you relax at home. When it's time to head out, you'll find museums and shopping centres practically on your doorstep.

Antique Mosaic

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 delightful apartment is located in the popular neighbourhood of La Font de la Guatlla, just a short walk from Plaza de España. Designed with families in mind, there’s lots of space for you to spend time together, whether you’re lounging inside, cooking up a storm, or relaxing on the private patio with a glass of something refreshing. Two guests will be sleeping on an extra sofa bed in the second bedroom, but your host has added a privacy curtain to make things more comfortable. 

The Barcelona Getaway

Vacuum Cleaner

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.

Beach Essentials

We didn't expect to find a home like this in an unassuming building like the one that hides the Trojan Horse. It's obvious that an interior designer was involved in the curation of this stylish home — there's a consistent theme of industrial chic, that's best expressed by the bare brick wall and sleek lampshades. There's an abundance of natural light with two balconies extending the clutter-free and clean living space and helping this relatively small home maximise its assets. Find a sunny reading spot by the window on a Wegner-inspired chair and gather around the vibrant dining area for convivial coffee and churros – we loved the bright yellow chairs. Both bedrooms benefit from tasteful scatter cushions, throws and quirky headboards that make for a light and airy spot to relax with a magazine. From Gràcia, all the major sights are well within walking distance, including the Sagrada Familia under twenty minutes away. Explore the local neighbourhood, stopping off at its trendy cafes and family-run eateries – wherever you are, a jug of sangria and a plate of paella are never too far from hand. 

Trojan Horse

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

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.

With a balcony opening directly onto the masterful façade of Sagrada Familia, this home boasts possibly one of the most unique vistas in Barcelona. But there’s more to staying at this apartment than just its jaw-dropping views. Your host also offers free tickets for Barcelona's matches at Camp Nou during your stay – a must-see while you're in town.  Back home, the vast living space is made for socialising – best enjoyed with the balcony doors wide open to take in Gaudi’s masterpiece. It's bright, roomy, and filled with pops of colour, from ruby red sofas to bold artwork. When it’s time to explore, hop on the nearby metro and you’ll be at the sights of central Barcelona in less than ten minutes. Or stay local to Sagrada Familia, where you’ll be surprised by just how much green space surrounds the area, perfect for a coffee and amble about. When tummies start to rumble, walk a few blocks along to the Eixample district and join the locals for authentic tapas and local wine. Or call upon your host, who’ll happily help with reserving a table at one of the city’s hottest restaurants. It’s all part of the service at this truly unique apartment.

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.
