Barcelona’s vibrant Eixample is a skip from this bright and minimalist central apartment. You can feel the city’s eclectic energy from the private balcony which is a prime space to revitalise after a day of perusing the Mercado de La Boqueria and Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art - only a 14-minute walk from your doorstep. Barcelona is a city brimming with cultural depth and diversity. And this home retreat has been considerately designed to maximise your city break. The calm interior feels immediately uplifting - throw back the curtains to feel the welcoming Barcelona sun on your skin and greet the balcony-grazing trees from your light-filled living room. We love how well positioned this apartment is – take yourself on an architectural walking tour of Gaudí’s most famous buildings - from Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, to the Sagrada Família, then finish off at the Gaudí House Museum. Cool off in Parc Güell and then treat yourself to a culinary array of Spanish pintxos. Check out Morro Fi, Bar Brutal and Berbena to try the savoury bites. We recommend one last stopover at Dr. Stravinsky - ranked 25 in World’s 50 Best Bars 2019 list - for a surprising liquid creation... before contently collapsing into your central home oasis.
