This wonderful home is located between the districts of the Gothic Quarter and Raval. It's right on the iconic Las Ramblas with its street performers, cafes, restaurants, markets and shops, and it's close to some more of Barcelona's most famous streets. Pedestrianised Calle Ferrán, which leads to the Barcelona City Hall and Plaça Reial, one of the city's most beautiful squares, are both nearby.

Back at this recently renovated apartment, we loved the characterful living space with its exposed brick walls, which are more than 200 years old and its high ceilings with wooden beams. The cute balcony is perfect for enjoying a glass of Cava while watching the comings and goings on Las Ramblas. This place is ideal for atwo couples or business professionals.

Found in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, this home couldn’t get much closer to the breathtaking Barcelona Cathedral if it tried. Easily admired even from the living space, we recommend stepping out onto the terrace whenever you want to swoon over the views of the thirteenth century Gothic construction. Lucky for you, the outdoor area is made for lounging – grab a seat as you watch the sunrise first thing in the morning, have meals alfresco, read under the Spanish sun, or sunbathe on the turf. 

Light and neutral inside, the home makes clever use of the space with efficient furniture choices like the sofa cum dining bench. The perfect space for relaxation after a day exploring the city at your doorstep or getting work done from the workspace in the lounge or bedroom. Put your feet up and unwind with a glass of wine before heading out for a bite to eat at one of the Catalan restaurants. 

Wander the narrow, mediaeval streets admiring the architecture as you make your way to La Rambla – around eight minutes away – to pick up street food. Days can be spent seeing the sights or relaxing on the beach – Barceloneta is twenty-four minutes on foot, but much quicker to get to by car if you’re eager to dip into the salty surf.

Filled to the brim with style, elegance and comfort, this apartment will charm you from the moment you step through the front door. 

There’s an unmistakable jungle theme running through the entirety of the home and we love it – the lush plants, the dark green walls and the beautiful furnishings. Add to it the streams of natural light flooding in through the large windows, and you can see why the ambience here is so instantly calming. Get comfortable in the stylish living room, where you’ll be able to enjoy evenings of movies and delicious meals at the dining table. Putting together a quick supper or breakfast will be a breeze, thanks to the well-equipped modern kitchen. 

You’ll also have a comfy ergonomic office space here, with two separate desk spaces, perfect for catching up on work or other laptop duties. Add to it the plush bedrooms and sleek bathroom with a glass walk-in shower and you’ve got everything to make your stay a relaxing and comfortable one.

An oasis of calm in the heart of Barcelona, this stylish apartment is the perfect setting for a slow-paced city break. There’s plenty to love here, but we can’t talk about this home without immediately bringing up its gorgeous terrace which comes complete with outdoor seating and a private Jacuzzi. Head out here first thing in the morning to watch the sunrise or come together at the end of the day for a well-deserved aperitivo as night falls over the city’s rooftops.

It's not just the outside space that’s worth writing home about, though. Inside, traditional architecture combines with postmodern design to create stylish living spaces that you’ll be more than happy to linger in. Stretch out on the L-shaped sofa and indulge in a midday siesta or head downstairs for a relaxing swim in the pool followed by a quick session in the communal sauna. We don't know about you, but we can't think of a better way to spend the afternoon.

Single-Level Home

Comfy, modern, and effortlessly cool, this gorgeous apartment in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter is the kind of home you’ll be itching to return to after a busy day in the city. We can’t quite put our finger on what makes this place so special, but it probably has something to do with its stylish interior, which was inspired by the works of Ricardo Bofill Leví, one of Catalonia’s most celebrated architects. 

Spend all day unwinding in the open-plan living area or head downstairs for a quick workout in the communal gym before setting off to see what the city has to offer. From Barceloneta Beach to Plaça Reial, all the major attractions are within touching distance here, and we wouldn’t blame you for wanting to make the most of it. Soak up the gorgeous architecture of Barcelona Cathedral, head to Port Vell for a seafood feast with your fellow guests, or get a cab to Eixample where you’ll find plenty of places to dance the night away.

Self Check-in / Check-out

One of several similar holiday apartments in the same building, this tastefully refurbished spot is in the heart of Barcelona, just 100 metres from Las Ramblas and a short walk from Plaza de Catalunya. The elegant living room includes a dining area and there’s a full kitchen for meals at home. We think the second bedroom would be best suited to children as there’s a pull-down bunk and it’s rather narrow. If you’re not using the sofa bed in the living room, this place feels particularly spacious and comfortable.

There's nothing about this place we haven't fallen in love with. From the historic street it sits on, in the oldest part of the city, to the impeccable styling, it's a hard place to drag yourself away from. A tastefully modernised period apartment in one of the area's typical buildings, we loved the stripped-back original features – think exposed brick walls, high ceilings, ancient wood beams and a pretty, wrought iron balcony. And while we could sit outside all day, sipping tea and watching the world go by, the rest of the apartment is comfortable and practical, with a well-stocked, contemporary kitchen and two bedrooms. You can easily work at the desk all day, if you really need to, then serve dinner at the black dining table. With a mix of neutral colours and rustic textures, it's clear a great deal of thought has been put into making this home a memorable one. In the evenings, slip out to one of the nearby bars or restaurants, and by day explore the Gothic Quarter and walk to the nearby beach.

Rooftop Terrace

With this Barcelona apartment, you’ll be just a two-minute walk from Las Ramblas and three minutes from Plaza Real, with its fountains and palm trees. Back at this home, there’s access to a large shared rooftop terrace, perfect for sunbathing (there’s an outdoor shower) or dining – just take in those great views over the city. There are vistas from this apartment’s Juliet balcony, too (this is a vibrant area, mind, so you’re most likely to hear some noise during your stay).

Baroque Rooftop

This elegant apartment is in the centre of Barcelona, 100 metres from Las Ramblas and a short walk from Plaza de Catalunya. Bars, restaurants and shops are all on your doorstep. Apart from a full kitchen and delightful dining room inside, there’s a private terrace for evening cocktails outside. In the living room, you’ve got a dedicated laptop desk for those that need to work remotely. Despite the central location, it’s pretty quiet as the rooms look out over the terrace rather than the busy street. 

When the City Sleeps

Buzzer / Wireless Intercom

You'll find this contemporary flat just around the corner from Plaça de Catalunya and La Rambla de Catalunya, two of Barcelona's busiest and most vibrant spots. As long as a bit of buzz suits you, we think this central location will make sightseeing effortless – many of the city's must-visit landmarks are either within walking distance or a quick ride away on the metro. Add in the proximity to delicious restaurants, lively tapas bars and fashionable shopping and we think it's an excellent choice.

After a long day exploring, come home to this light-filled apartment and chill out in style. It's a chic mixture of old and new – we particularly liked the tall vaulted ceilings, large windows and traditional French doors leading onto the balcony. Kick back on the cushy sofa with a glass of sangria, then rustle up classic Catalan dishes like pa amb tomàquet and fideuà in the sleek white kitchen. Following dinner, pour yourself another glass of wine and step out onto the balcony to watch the sunset over the city streets – although there's nowhere to sit, we thought it was a great spot to soak up the festive atmosphere of Barcelona. Then, when you're feeling full and sleepy, climb into the comfortable beds and drift off dreaming of tomorrow's adventures.

It should come as no surprise that an interior designer was involved with the creation of this plush apartment. The chromatic and textural harmony and adept pairing of old and new furniture is no happy accident. Elsewhere in the home, you’ll find a fully functional kitchen and bedrooms with comfy beds to leave you feeling seriously well-rested. Located between Eixample and the Gothic Quarter, there is no end of cafes, tapas bars and eateries within easy reach. Carrer dels Tallers, famous for its vintage shops, is a three-minute walk away, while the delicious Chocolate Museum is a leisurely twenty minutes to the east. Take advantage of the glorious Barcelona sunshine with a picnic at Ciutadella Park or catch the bus for just over twenty minutes to Barceloneta Beach.

The streets of Barcelona’s atmospheric Gothic Quarter are on your doorstep at this stylish city bolthole. Once you’ve had your fill of ancient cathedrals, secret squares and late-night tapas joints, perhaps hit the beach at Barceloneta, a leisurely walk away. It’s a studio-style apartment, but a room divider provides a little privacy between the bedroom area and dine-in living room. Plus, sliding doors can shut off the compact kitchen so fridge noise won’t keep you up at night. The bonus is the balcony which is petit but furnished with a bistro set.

Even if we didn't know this home's location, we'd be inclined to say that 'it's so El Born'. Unique art and furniture capture the neighbourhood's character, so you won't notice much difference between the chic interior and the many trendy tapas bars dotted around the nearby streets. La Baule Gallery has some lovely design assets, such as the exposed brick walls, stone columns enhanced with iron beams, and other industrial details that highlight the high-quality furnishings. There aren't many entertainment options – but in this neighbourhood, you won't be bored.

Located in the heart of Port Vell, this apartment puts the very best of Barcelona within strolling distance. You’re a twenty-minute walk from Barceloneta Beach and around ten minutes from the Gothic Quarter. After a morning spent sightseeing, we recommend taking advantage of the building’s amenities – a spa, an indoor pool and a gym are at your disposal. The home itself has everything you need for a stress-free break. The bedrooms are comfortable, and although the kitchen is small, it’s well-appointed.


A Breeze in Barcelona

Not only is this apartment just a two-minute walk from Las Ramblas and three minutes from Plaza Real, but you’ll be within walking distance of the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art. Other attractions nearby include the Güell Palace and the Mercat de Sant Antoni. We wouldn’t blame you, though, if you just wanted to relax in the sun on this home’s shared roof terrace (it’s open from 8am to 9pm). The terrace has great views over the city, as does the Juliet balcony in the living room. The kitchen is a bit on the compact side, and there isn’t much food preparation space, but there is an oven and hob, so you can still prepare your favourite tapas.

A Little Dreamer

Located in one of Barcelona’s most popular neighbourhoods, Velvet Touch is just steps from La Rambla, Passeig de Gràcia and Plaça Catalunya. Whether this is your first or hundredth visit to the city, a great location is just as important as the home itself. Luckily for you, Velvet Touch easily matches its location with super sleek interiors, all-modern appliances and exposed brick for a rustic touch in this cutting edge space. Welcoming up to four guests, this is a great spot for a couple of friends or a family keen on getting the most out of Barcelona and its offerings. Sample the area’s many wonderful restaurants and bars or catch the metro and explore Barcelona’s many excellent neighbourhoods.

Velvet Touch

Early / Late Check-Out Available

Centrally located, this light and cosy apartment is the perfect resting point during your stay in Barcelona. We love the balcony – the perfect place to perch with your morning coffee as you watch the hustle and bustle unfold below. Head out to explore the charming city of Barcelona, with a wide range of bars and eateries to unwind in, as well as a ton of shops to browse throughout your stay. Our recommendation? Visit the waterside for some lovely views and the sparkling Barcelona Port Vell.

Daily Dream

You'll have the narrow medieval streets of the Gothic Quarter on your doorstep, as well as Barcelona Cathedral, when you stay at this apartment. There's an array of fashionable bars and Catalan restaurants to enjoy, too. For a spot of culture, head to the Museu d'Història de Barcelona or the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, all within walking distance. As you'd expect, such a fantastic location comes with some street noise, which you may hear throughout your stay if you're a light sleeper. The open-plan living room is spacious, but there's not much food preparation space in the kitchenette, but will you be eating in that much?

Gothic Gem

If you're looking for a true sanctuary in the city then you've come to the right place. This serene apartment, nestled in the Sant Antoni district of Barcelona, is the perfect spot to work, relax, or catch up with your nearest and dearest. 

Step inside, and you'll find a beautiful space cloaked in soft green tones and natural textures. Curl up on the sofa with a glass of Rioja and chat about your plans – on warm days, you can throw open the French doors for a gentle breeze. Budding chefs can practice their Spanish-style cooking in the kitchen, using fresh ingredients from the nearby 19th-century Sant Antoni Market. And, if you need to catch up on your emails, there's a gorgeous deskspace waiting for you – pour a cup of coffee and get to work. 

The surrounding area is a favourite of locals, and you can find some fabulous local restaurants and bars that aren't packed with tourists. Take a leisurely walk into the city centre if you want to visit the Gothic Quarter or spend a day at the beach – or, hop on the metro for a faster journey. And, with the cable car just a few streets away, you can enjoy panoramic views from the Castell de Montjuïc. 

Jungle Canopy

Situated in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, this 16th-century building is home to some of the smartest apartments in the city. If you’re anything like us, you’ll love the feel of this place’s postmodern interior, particularly the open-plan living room which comes with plenty of reading material for whiling away the evening after a busy day of sightseeing. Step onto your private patio and gaze out at the interior courtyard or make your way downstairs and blow off some steam with a few laps of the indoor pool. When it comes to communal facilities, this place ticks all our boxes. 

 If you’re here to soak up the sights and sounds of the city, you’re in luck – this home is within easy reach of all Barcelona’s major attractions, from Güell Palace to the Rambla De Mar. Go for a stroll through the Gothic Quarter’s historic streets or make a beeline for Port Vell where you’ll find plenty of eateries to satisfy your appetite. We can almost smell the patatas bravas now.

Free Parking On Premises

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.

Vinçon

Located in the oldest district of Barcelona, the Gothic Quarter, this apartment is part of an eighteenth-century palace. This amazing area of the city has narrow streets that will transport you back to the medieval times while the neighbourhood itself is alive with street artists, musicians, small antique shops, artisans, designers, cosy restaurants, tapas bars and cafes, so there is something to meet everyone’s needs. Why not start your mornings here with a breakfast of churros as a soft breeze floats in from the home’s Juliet balcony, which overlooks the narrow, gothic streets below, before heading out for a day of sightseeing?

This home is ideally situated to see much of what Barcelona has to offer. In the Gothic Quarter, the Cathedral is just six minutes away on foot, while the Plaça del Pi, with its beautiful church that often hosts concerts, is just a nine-minute walk away.

Further afield, why not enjoy a leisurely stroll as you admire the fountains of Cuitadella Park – a short twelve-minute walk from your door, or take a twenty-two-minute walk to Casa Battló to see the incredible architecture and design work of Gaudí. Experience a wine tasting – which can be reached within seven minutes on foot – or book fun tours and activities including city sightseeing on a hop-on-hop-off bus tour. 

Then, in the evening, when you are exhausted from exploring the city, head home and enjoy a tapas meal using local produce from the market – Mercado de La Boqueria is just a twelve-minute walk away. Or treat yourself to a meal out in one of the nearby restaurants – which can be reached in as little as two minutes on foot.

Gothic Greatness

Located close to the Gothic Quarter, El Raval and the seafront, this apartment is in the perfect spot to explore Barcelona on foot. It's an equally relaxing place to return to with sore feet, too. The living area feels instantly bright and inviting, thanks to the large windows, reflective wood floors and white furnishings. This sense of calm continues through to the bedrooms and bathrooms, which are simply appointed but tastefully so — colours and patterns are rationed to great effect and the presence of rainfall showers are welcome, too. When you fancy exploring, there are ten art galleries that can be reached in a quarter of an hour's walk, while you can go from your front door to the Mediterranean Sea in just over thirty-five minutes.

Stay just a street away from the bustling Las Ramblas, the heart of Barcelona. You're steps away from all of its restaurants, bars, cafes, shops, and more. Not only is the location fantastic, but you're also doing it in style, in this chic, contemporary apartment. 

You'll love mornings in this apartment. Nothing beats stepping out onto your balcony and soaking up the warm morning sun on your face while sipping on a fresh coffee, before getting ready to take on the city. Staying so close to Las Ramblas, you can get to wherever you want to go with ease. You're just a short walk away from Barceloneta Beach – it's beautiful whatever the weather, with a promenade lined with cafes, sangria bars, and tapas spots that can provide you comfort if it's a bit too cold for the beach. Or, explore the Gothic Quarter and its museums, trinket shops, and cathedrals, marvelling at the mesmerising architecture. 

Warm and inviting, this is the kind of apartment you'll be glad to come home to after a long day of walking around Barcelona. We love the dark-toned wood, it's a beautiful touch that makes this home feel so stylish and luxurious. In the living room, the plush sofa makes for the ideal spot for putting your feet up for some relaxation before getting ready for dinner around your dining table. Your kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up dinner if you fancy your hand at trying local dishes, or you can head out for the real thing.

Honey & Spice

Private Entrance

Metamorphosis is an oasis of modern design in the charming historic centre of Barcelona. The sleek wood panels in the kitchen and the recessed lighting make it feel bright during the day and cosy at night, while the balcony and the lush greenery make for an all-round relaxing atmosphere. The neighbourhood, El Born, gives you the easy charm and narrow, winding streets of the old town with an added bohemian feel. It’s brimming with trendy restaurants and great tapas bars, perfect for a relaxed evening of eating and exploring. 


Metamorphosis

This sizzling slice of Barcelona life is the ideal find for a couple or solo traveller stopping in the city. It wears its heritage with pride, from the wooden floors to the exposed brick walls original beams – and we particularly love the old-school record player. If you're stopping in the city to work then you'll love the cosy workspace, where you can catch up on emails before cooking up a hearty lunch in the rustic kitchen, complete with custom-made wood panelling. But the standout feature of this home has to be the multi-functional roof terrace. Top up your sun lotion and get comfortable on a lounger, host an alfresco dinner party in the entertainment area, or simply enjoy the views of the city streets below. Ciutadella Park is only a two-minute walk from your front door, and the winding medieval streets of the El Born neighbourhood are packed with boutiques, bars and authentic Catalan restaurants. So, if you want a taste of the real Barcelona, this is the home for you.

Awaken the Senses 

Surrounded by Sant Pere’s ancient streets now packed with indie fashion shops, craft coffee spots, gourmet tapas bars and museums, this wonderfully stylish home may be in the heart of one of Barcelona’s oldest districts, but its decor is nothing short of modern boho elegance. 
 
We love the blend of textures that greets you as soon as you walk through the door with exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings and soft throws creating a laid-back scene in the living area. Kick back on the sofa with a coffee and a good book or perch by the Juliet balcony here with a glass of wine while a record serenades you. 
 
The sleek kitchen beckons homemade tapas feasts to be enjoyed at its chic bench table, while the communal rooftop terrace is the ideal spot to catch some afternoon rays or toast to a day’s adventures over a sundowner or two. 
 
The separate office room is ideal for those needing to mix business with pleasure, and at the end of every night, you’ve got the effortlessly beautiful bedrooms to retreat to for a blissful night’s sleep. 
 
When it comes to exploring nearby, you’re spoilt for choice. Take a stroll through Ciutadella Park, a four-minute walk away, or make a beeline for Barceloneta Beach, twenty minutes away on foot. You’re also an eight-minute walk from the Cathedral of Barcelona and the Gothic Quarter, while the Picasso Museum is a mere one-minute stroll from your front door. 


Solstice Dreams

Sitting within Barcelona’s vibrant El Raval neighbourhood, this bright apartment is an ideal base for those looking to make the most out of the city’s history, culture and shimmering coastline. 

With its glossy tiled floors, white walls and pared-back contemporary decor, the open-plan living area feels instantly welcoming. We love how much natural light pours in through the French doors here that open out onto a private balcony – this is the perfect spot to begin your days over coffee or to end evenings with a celebratory glass of Spanish wine. 

And when you’re ready to turn in, you’ll find a comfortable bedroom – also boasting French doors – waiting to drift you into a restful night’s sleep. 

Outside of your home, you’ll find a plethora of bohemian bars, cool design shops and street art filling the streets of your El Raval neighbourhood, while the nearby La Boqueria market is the perfect spot to indulge in some seafood, wine and tapas. You’re also within walking distance of the atmospheric Gothic Quarter, as well as the Güell Palace designed by Antoni Gaudí.


Raval Rumba 

Freshly refurbished with an eye for style, this home is in an elegant part of the city with leafy street views. Set in a character building, it's a unique blend of earthy tones, natural textures and on-trend interior design, all topped off with high ceilings, French balconies and traditional shutters. We love the living space, with its comfy furnishings, tall windows and striking design pieces.

A separate kitchen (small but perfectly formed) is set up for home cooking and there's a dining table for up to four in front of the window. Perfect for a couple of friends or a small family, it's also set up with office space if you'll be working remotely during your stay. And thanks to its location, everything from big attractions to restaurants, bars and great shopping is on your doorstep.

Beads & Reeds

One of many similar apartments, this pad puts you smack-dab in the centre of Barcelona. Stroll down Las Ramblas, 100 metres away, and admire the Guadí architecture while doing a bit of shopping. Venture five minutes further and you'll hit Plaça de Catalunya, one of the most popular spots in the city. Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed here, and when it's in use, the socialising space isn't the biggest. There's also likely to be street noise since you're so central. That aside, with a cosy bedroom and full kitchen, it's a comfortable, practical spot to call home.

Real Ramblas

With the thriving theatre scene of the El Poble-Sec neighbourhood on your doorstep and the must-see sights of the L'Eixample district a stroll away, this is an ideal base for families looking to be close to the action. The bunk beds will be handy for kids sharing, and though the kitchen is pocket-sized, it's surprisingly well-equipped for rustling up simple family meals. Rather eat out instead? There are buzzy tapas bars and restaurants on tap in the streets below. The only thing this bolthole is missing is outdoor space. But the floor-to-ceiling Juliet balcony doors are a nice touch to let the sunshine in.

A Sunny Haven

Ideally located in central Barcelona, this apartment offers great proximity to some of the city’s greatest sights, and attractions. Admire the home’s unique brickwork art as it greets you and welcomes you to Barcelona. Perfect mornings here begin with a breakfast tortilla eaten at the kitchen island with the soft breeze from the Juliet balcony floating in. Then, head out onto the balcony with your coffee to enjoy the views and the sun on your skin. 

Catch up on any important work at the desk space before heading out for a day of exploring. Take a leisurely stroll around the beautiful Ciutadella Park – a seven-minute walk away, or visit the Gothic Quarter and Cathedral – reachable in nine minutes on foot. You can even hop on and off a bus tour of the city to take in as many sights as possible. 

In the evening, dine in one of the many restaurants in the neighbourhood which are reachable in as little as a one-minute walk, or try cooking your own Catalan dishes. We would then love to end the day with a glass of sangria on the balcony, to enjoy the last of the views as night-time descends. 

Green Eyed Girl

This apartment makes a great base for an exciting city stay. Located right in the heart of Barcelona, it’s just a 100-metre stroll to Las Ramblas, while the beach is just 2 kilometres away. And while there is plenty to explore on the doorstep, this home brings ease, comfort and convenience to city living. It’s likely you’ll hear some street noise throughout your stay, but you will find it’s well suited to couples and families with the handy addition of a sofa bed in the living room. 

Sunflower Serenade 

Tucked away in the side streets, close to the Gothic Quarter, this freshly renovated home has more of the old rural Catalan farmhouse about it than the modern-day city apartment. Set in an ancient building, with bags of character and a shared outdoor space on the roof, it's a great choice for those planning a longer stay in the city.

Stripped back to reveal its bare brickwork in parts, with a typical vaulted ceiling and Juliet balconies, there's a cosy, home-from-home feel to the place and a nice flow to the space. We particularly love the comfy sofa in the living room and the well-equipped kitchen – perfect for a home this size. The bedrooms are bright and beautifully presented, with storage and their own bathrooms, and one could make an excellent study if you'll be working from home.

Just a few minutes from the nearest Metro, and an easy walk to some of the area's biggest attractions, we think you'll love it here.



City of Wicker

Nestled within the iconic streets of central Barcelona with views across the Cathedral, this home brings you to the heart of Mediterranean living. 

Bathed in natural light and styled in calming tones, this is the kind of space that feels instantly welcoming. Featuring a seamless blend of Scandinavian furnishings with Japanese influences, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of ease and harmony. So whether you’re here for an action-packed adventure or to simply live like a local, you’ll find this apartment provides a constant sense of sanctuary. 

Set across one floor with four bedrooms and an expansive living room, there’s ample space for relaxing and sharing quality time together. The elegant sofas are perfectly positioned for gazing at the views, while the antique wood table makes a dreamy spot for candlelit dinners as the sun sets. 

Outside, you’ll find you’re in a great location to experience the magic of city living. From gilded afternoon strolls through the Gothic Quarter to golden-hour drinks by Barceloneta Beach, this apartment welcomes you to enjoy it all in style. 

Casa Salón

You’ll find this chic apartment in Barcelona’s Sant Antoni neighbourhood. It’s a great part of the city for enjoying alfresco drinks, meandering along tree-lined streets, and shopping in stylish boutiques. There’s an old-world charm to this part of Barcelona, which makes it a charming base for seeing the sights – which is as easy as can be thanks to the proximity of the Universitat metro station. The apartment is stylish and comfortable, with everything you might need for a city break. We love that guests staying here get access to a shared rooftop terrace. 

The Raval Pearl

From its charcoal-coloured brick wall to its beamed ceilings and wood floors, this beautifully styled apartment combines rustic Spanish charm with boho chic aesthetics to create a wholly welcoming space. 

We love how much natural light pours in through the open-plan living area’s French doors. Open these up to let the breeze flow through or perch by the Juliet balcony with a glass of wine while taking in views of your pretty El Born neighbourhood. Mealtimes call for celebratory tapas feasts around the dining table while a vinyl record serenades you, while the desk space here is all ready to cater to those needing to mix business with pleasure. And, when you’re ready to turn in for the night, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms ready to ease you into a seamless night’s slumber. 

Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy reach – take a stroll through Ciutadella Park, visit the Cathedral of Barcelona and its surrounding Gothic Quarter, and while away a few delicious hours at the Museu de la Xocolata. 


Born to Light

In the vibrant neighbourhood of El Poble-Sec, a thriving cultural scene takes centre stage from the Avinguda del Paral·lel, to the hills of Montjuïc. A two-minute stroll from Teatre Comtal, twelve from Teatre Lliure, and fifteen from the Joan Miró Foundation, this apartment allows you to get deep into the creative dimensions of the region. But in such lively surroundings, a calming home is something we think you’ll really appreciate.

In a building which has stood for 120 years, your historic flat takes a different approach inside. Modern, minimalist, and relaxed, the bright living space features understated furnishings with a monochrome colour scheme. This cleverly allows its original architectural features to stand out – vaulted brick ceilings, timber beams, and exposed brickwork remind you of Barcelona of old.

Since ascending the stairs to the fifth floor is thirsty work, we recommend pouring yourself a chilled glass of Catalan wine. Take it out to peer over the wrought-iron balconette from the tall glass doors of the lounge. Or head into the main bedroom where you’ll find a cute terrace with an alfresco dining spot and fabulous views of neighbouring buildings. Anyone for a top-up?

Mató de Monja

Walk to Las Ramblas, with its stylish boutiques and fine dining, in just twenty minutes when you stay at this stylish apartment in Barcelona. It's just a few minutes further to Plaça De Catalunya, or head to the trendy bars of the Gothic Quarter, just over a quarter of an hour on foot. El Molino theatre, often referred to as Barcelona's Moulin Rouge, is a three-minute walk. In the second half of July, the neighbourhood stages the annual Festa Major, hosting barbeques, DJs and various events. Back at this stylish home – it has buckets of character mixed with modern features such as the contemporary staircase. We love that the exposed brick and original wooden beams follow through the entire apartment too. Whip up some tapas in the vibrant red kitchen, then relax with a glass of wine. This place is perfect for unwinding in after a busy day in this stunning city.
