Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Stay just a short walk from Barcelona's most iconic landmark – la Sagrada Familia. Surrounded by tapas bars and traditional restaurants, as well as having easy access to the beach, there's plenty to fill your days here. And, after a busy day of traversing the city, you'll love returning to the charming outside space for a refreshing glass of Spanish wine or even a homemade paella. For those working remotely, you'll find a convenient home office space to enjoy – though some street noise should be expected due to the central location.

Home truths

    Parking in Barcelona can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot

    The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents.

    Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.

    If you have some work to catch up on during your stay, there's a laptop-friendly workspace here, as well as a fast WI-FI connection.
