This period apartment is in the very heart of the city, where Eixample meets the Gothic Quarter. Right beside Plaça Catalunya, your sightseeing days will no doubt start on this iconic square. On a high floor of a traditional building and overlooking a small courtyard, it's a stylish and comfortable place to stay in a surprisingly quiet spot. The character of this well-cared-for home shines out from the moment you open the door, with wood floors, original brick and beam ceilings and tall windows that open to a balcony – a perfect outdoor space for your morning cup of coffee. Modern furnishings like the leather sofa and the dining table make for a home from home feel, while the kitchen is kitted-out for cooking at home. A great choice for a small family, the second bedroom may be on the smaller side but its bunk beds make the most of the space. An easy walk from Las Ramblas and a couple of minutes walk from the Metro station, it's perfectly located for exploring this city and its many delights.
