Housed in a centuries-old building with classic high ceilings and a beautiful structure, this charming apartment welcomes you to unwind and explore the city in style. Located in Barcelona’s bustling Eixample neighbourhood, this central base puts the city's must-see sights within easy reach. Stepping inside, you'll find wood floors, ornate ceilings and neutral tones come together to create a real sanctuary of calm. Drop off your bags and cook up tasty tapas dishes to enjoy at the window-side dining table, the French doors thrown open, instantly expanding your communal space and framing peaceful green views in the backdrop. Come morning, sip your espresso out on the private balcony, listening to the gentle sounds of the Gran Via de Les Corts Catalane nearby. When you're ready to explore, you'll find a surplus of designer shops, hip bars and excellent restaurants right on your doorstep, while Placa de Catalunya and Casa Milá are both a short walk away. You're also right by a metro stop, connecting you to the entire city and it's most celebrated attractions within a few minutes, including la Sagrada Familia and Camp Nou.
