A seven-minute walk from the lush and tranquil gardens of the Parc de la Ciutadella, the vibrant area of El Born is teeming with boutiques, cafés, restaurants, and charm. After wandering through the maze of paved streets, you'll find the original, dark wooden door of your Barcelona home. Your hosts at this historical building are ready to provide a first-class service. Whether you need taxis booked, tickets for city attractions, maps, or restaurant recommendations, you’ll get VIP treatment from the offset. Inside the flat, exposed brickwork and original wooden beams bring a rustic vibe to the space. However, minimalist and modern furnishings contrast this perfectly. We love the marble-clad bathroom, bringing yet more class and luxury to your surroundings. And with your own private balcony as well as a communal roof terrace atop the building, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing a sunny spot to sip your espresso in the morning. For the afternoon, head out to Barceloneta beach (just fifteen minutes away) to dip your toes into the Mediterranean Sea. There’s a metro stop of the same name only five minutes from home, so wherever you end up, you’ll have no trouble getting back to base.

About Gothic Quarter
Gothic Quarter is a true tourist hotspot, filled with shops and famous attractions on every corner. During the day, urban explorers fill its narrow, stone-paved streets, admiring the neo-Gothic sights – but it’s the night that sees the Quarter truly come to life. Home to some of the city’s most popular restaurants, bars, and quirky shops that stay open till late, the vibrant area is popular among young travellers and party-goers seeking the best Barcelona has to offer.

Host
This home is managed by Emma
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Emma and her team seemed very on the ball when we met them. They do this professionally, and you can tell that they have plenty of experience between them. It does mean, however, that it might not be Emma who you meet, but one of her colleagues.
Registration or licence number: HUTB-00272100.
