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.

Home truths
While the second shower room isn’t photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
This home is located within an apartment building with a shared entrance.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear street noise throughout your stay.
This home sleeps eight guests, with the last two guests sleeping on a double sofa bed in the lounge. It's also worth noting at full occupancy, space around the dining table will be tight.
This apartment is not suitable for parties, and you’ll need to respect quiet hours between 10pm and 9am.
Parking in Barcelona can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible.
