Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Why not stay beside the Avenida Diagonal – one of Barcelona's most important boulevards? You'll be surrounded by restaurants and landmarks here and only a twelve-minute walk from the Eixample neighbourhood. We love the homely design of this apartment, offering a casual space for families and friend groups. While the bathtubs promise relaxing soaks, you may wish to pack a few extra towels. Though paid parking is a great option, some might prefer to hop on the metro like a local.
