It's clear that Gingerbread Cinder was designed by a professional – original vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls are a challenge to pull off, but these guys succeeded using minimal, high-quality furniture. This is an immaculate home with lots of natural light and several external balconies, perfect for people-watching. Located in Barcelona's 'it' neighbourhood El Born, you'll be within walking distance to the most famous sights, as well as local hidden gems.

In the Eixample district, eight minutes from Plaça de Catalunya, this flat offers an opulent stay in the city centre. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by style and sophistication – pristine tiled floors, a solid marble staircase, grand mahogany doors – and we’re only in the entrance hall of the building. Inside your home, a lavish theme continues. The furnishings are high-quality, modern pieces, and the colour scheme of the decor is rich and regal. We particularly love the deep crimson tiled bathroom and dark green feature walls. Pick up an art book from the shelf and have a flick through as you catch some rays on the balconette. From up here, the Urquinaona metro stop is so close you can almost see it – just one minute away, hop on to be whisked around the entire city. But there’s plenty to do on foot. See Gaudí’s masterpieces Casa Batlló and Casa Milà, a fifteen and twenty-minute walk respectively, on the elegant broadway of Passeig de Gràcia. You can hit some designer shops en route, before winding back to your locale for tapas and a glass of Spanish wine.

Housed in a 19th century listed building, raised above the quiet pedestrian streets of the central El Born district, you’ll find this authentic Catalan apartment. We love the curated mix of antique pieces and minimalist furniture. The vaulted ceilings and original Juliet balconies create a lofty, airy feel to this space. Take the flight of stairs up to the top of this handsome building and you’ll find a hidden secret – an impressive shared sun terrace, the perfect spot for sundowners before heading out for authentic tapas. And you’re in the right neighbourhood to do so. The surrounding streets are archetypical of El Born - Barcelona’s ‘It’ neighbourhood, don’t you know. You’re only two minutes from heaps of trendy bars, coffee shops, and independent boutiques, as well as the imposing Basilica of Santa Maria Del Mar. Start your day with a spot of people watching at an outdoor café before heading on to one of the many sights located nearby.  The lively streets of Plaça Catalunya, Les Rambles, and the Gothic Quarter are all just a fifteen-minute walk away – as is the city’s sandy beach. Your only conundrum will be deciding where to head first.

Cinder Rustico

Dryer

With authentic Spanish interiors and a prime location in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter, this apartment is ideal for those looking to be within walking distance of the city's most celebrated sights. You're a short stroll from Barcelona Cathedral, Plaza Catalunya and the Parc de la Ciutadella with plenty of excellent shopping and dining options right on your doorstep. Inside, traditional Catalan touches combine with a contemporary design to add real warmth to the pad – that said, the bedrooms do vary in size and there's limited storage space.

In a traditional building, recently modernised with eco-conscious touches, this character apartment is set between the El Born and Eixample neighbourhoods. With sustainability in mind, the hosts have hand-picked recycled wood for the quirky kitchen cabinets, along with things like vintage glasses and upcycled armchairs. The mini-bar with local eco soaps, toothbrushes, beers, wine and juices is a nice touch and there's nothing like stepping out onto your little balcony, glass in hand, and taking in the sights and sounds of this vibrant area. Bedrooms are calm and quiet, and all the more beautiful thanks to their Catalan tiled floors, high ceilings and tall windows. But our favourite thing about this charming place is the hosts, who live in an apartment on the top floor and are welcoming and knowledgeable. They'll look after your bags before or after checkout, welcome you with a local breakfast and even allow you to use their beautiful roof terrace from time to time – where you can see across the city to the sea.

Reclaimed Dream

Just eight minutes from the Plaça de Catalunya on foot, this renovated home boasts a central location in the heart of Barcelona. You'll find it in the Eixample, tucked away in an elegant alleyway and offering a quiet refuge from the tourist hustle and bustle. Here, you're surrounded by a delightful array of boutiques and eateries and within walking distance of the main sights. Go shopping on Passeig de Gràcia, picnic in Ciutadella Park or marvel at the Sagrada Familia – all less than a twenty-minute stroll from your doorstep. 

Inside, spacious rooms flaunt high ceilings, large windows and stylish decor, while contemporary amenities promise a want-for-nothing stay. We especially love the balcony. Offering leafy views, this is the perfect place to sunbathe. Home chefs will appreciate the fully-equipped kitchen, where a breakfast bar beckons for mornings roosted here, sipping quick coffees before slipping out for breakfast – we recommend the croissants from the little cafe downstairs.

Built with respect for the environment, this bright home is an ideal base for eco-conscious guests looking for a comfortable, central stay in the city. While the home dates back to 1900, it’s been brought into sparkling 21st-style with an interior that reflects eco-design principles and respects Catalan Modernism. High ceilings, mosaic tiles, wooden framed French doors and upcycled furnishings create a beautiful, minimalist impression in the open-plan living room with a cool wooden kitchenette and dining table inviting Spanish feasts aplenty. The two bedrooms are equally pared-back and offer cosy beds as well as Juliet balconies with leafy views over your El Born neighbourhood. You’ll also have access to your host’s office and communal rooftop terrace on the eighth floor (during working hours) where hammocks invite you to spend sunny afternoons soaking up those Barcelona rays. Factor in the regular walking tours, wine tastings and food experiences your host organises for his guests, and you’re all set for a fun, culture-filled stay. Outside of your home, you’re just a five-minute walk from the Arc de Triomf, a nine-minute stroll from both Plaça de Catalunya and Ciutadella Park, while La Sagrada Familia is twenty-four minutes away on foot. 


Reclaimed Reverie

Balcony / Patio

Whether you're staying as a family or a group of friends, this home in the heart of Barcelona is ideally situated for sightseeing excursions. The Gothic Quarter is within walking distance of the building, and if you need a break from the heat, Somorrostro Beach is easily reachable by bus. The interior of the pad is simple yet well-equipped for any length of stay. What's more, there's a balcony for alfresco refreshments, although it is somewhat overlooked by the neighbouring apartments.

Patio / Terrace

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. 

Barcelona Bliss

This apartment offers a central location in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter and a practical pad to call your own. Just a short stroll from Barcelona Cathedral, Plaza Catalunya and the various shops, restaurants and bars, you really couldn't be better placed for exploring the city. The home's bedrooms vary in size, with limited space so you'll want to pack light. That said, we think the modern design, which benefits from traditional Catalan touches, makes for a lovely home to come back to after a busy day of sightseeing. 

The Making of a City

Baby Bath

The architectural details in Cinder Symmetry are the most characterful part of this comfortable, bright home. Even though it's a rental property, the professional touch of an interior designer is evident in the selection of high-quality, minimalist furniture that doesn't clash with the busy walls. El Born is close to the Gothic Quarter, but has a completely different character –  think fewer tourist hotspots, and far more award-winning tapas bars. 

Cinder Symmetry

El Born is a bustling barrio of cafés, cocktails, and Catalan culture. Seconds from all the action, your home is located in a historical building with buckets of charm. We love the exposed brickwork and wooden beams of this original flat. These rustic structural features contrast beautifully with modern, understated furnishings and decor. Huge floor-to-ceiling windows open up on balconies overlooking the street, while cushy sofas and flowing curtains add softness to your surroundings. Up on the communal roof terrace, we recommend getting a cold drink and lying back in the sun loungers. This sunny spot is perfect for an iced coffee in the morning, or a chilled glass of wine in the evening. After relaxing up here, head down to street level to check out the bars and restaurants of El Born. It's also a fifteen-minute walk to the beach and just over five to the Parc de la Ciutadella. With the Barceloneta metro stop five minutes from home, the entire city is yours to explore. But if you're feeling a little overwhelmed by all the incredible options, your friendly host is here to help. They can provide tourist information as well as city maps, taxi booking, and tickets for monuments and museums – truly a first-class service.

Cinder Spark

Garden

Floating Cinder is only available for longer stays, and as such we think it has to be judged slightly differently to places that are destined for short trips. For example, we wouldn’t recommend using the sofa bed (though of course, it’s your choice), but equally, the extra space and the decent kitchen weigh heavier in our verdict. It’s really important to be aware that this listing represents several flats. They are all identical, and all in the same building, but we can’t say specifically which one you’ll get.

If you're staying in Barcelona, then you'll probably want to see some of its architecture – and you're in luck because House of Halls has several well-preserved architectural details. From the closed-up balcony study to the balcony with space for a full set of furniture, this home embodies a true Catalan lifestyle in the opulent neighbourhood of Eixample. Staying in this part of town, you'll have easy access to lots of attractions, including Sagrada Familia and Arco de Triunfo. 

House of Halls

DVD Library

This apartment is ideal for those keen to drop off their bags and head out into Barcelona to explore. The second bedroom is cosy, but has everything needed for a comfortable night’s sleep, and for quiet nights in, the well-equipped kitchen will have you whipping up Spanish feasts in no time. That said, with a host of eateries on your doorstep, dining out will be on the menu. Locally, it’s just six minutes on foot to Plaça de Catalunya or ten minutes to the Arc de Triomf. 

Portrait of Barcelona

You’ll find this comfortable apartment on a leafy street in the Eixample district. Inside, there’s a laidback homespun charm with an eclectic selection of artwork and inviting soft furnishings. We loved the original brick and beam ceilings, as well as the double set of French doors in the living space, allowing for plenty of sunlight and a fresh Spanish breeze. Put together a charcuterie board in your kitchen and serve at the dining table or head out for tapas in your trendy locale. There’s a good spot three doors down, not to mention an endless array of bars, rustic tavernas and upscale restaurants within no more than a ten-minute saunter. The famous Passeig de Gracia with its high-end stores and feats of Modernist architecture is reached in less than ten minutes by foot. But should you fancy a break from the city heat, Barceloneta Beach is an eighteen-minute bus ride away. 

Audrey & Charlie

Conveniently close to Paseo de Gracia and Plaza Catalunya, this home is a great choice for families on-the-go and in the mood for exploring. Choose from a wide selection of great restaurants nearby, or pick up some fresh croissants for breakfast from the lovely cafe downstairs. Sink back into the beautiful bathtub, or enjoy the leafy view from any one of the three beautiful little balconies.

Drawing inspiration from, the breezy beaches of Southeast Asia, it's easy to forget that you're actually in the heart of Barcelona from this serene spot. That is of course until you step out onto one of the home's three different balconies. Instead of palm trees and sandy shores, however, you'll get to take in views of the equally charming cobbled square and beautiful Spanish architecture that looks over the street below. The apartment's open-plan layout invites guests to relax in style while catching respite from the buzz of the city. Try your hand at preparing some local tapas or even a homemade paella to serve up at the dining area, or better still – head out to try out the local cuisine at the bars and restaurants within walking distance. Positioned just a fifteen-minute leisurely stroll away from Barceloneta beach, you'll be within easy reach of the ocean breeze after all. Come sunset, there's nothing better than drifting away to the soothing sound of the waves lapping into the shore over a glass of Sangria at one of the beach bars. You're welcome.

Single-Level Home

Sitting pretty in a beautiful old Haute building, this Eixample apartment is fresh, warm and welcoming, with a stylish blend of original features and minimalist modern furniture. We particularly loved the ornate ceiling mouldings in the living space. When you arrive, throw open the curtains and step out onto your Juliet balcony, feeling the warmth of Barcelona’s glorious sunshine as the breeze ripples through the quiet leafy streets below. It’s hard to believe this home is a ten-minute walk from the buzzing Plaza Catalunya, often regarded as Barcelona’s most central point. From here, you’ll find the Passeig de Gracia, with its emblematic Modernist buildings, high-end boutiques and upscale eateries. Better yet, the trendy El Born neighbourhood, famous for its artsy crowd and boho feel is only a fifteen-minute walk away.

Luxury Bedding

With playful patterns and carefully curated artwork, this home is full of fun. Eco-design is more than a catchphrase here. Your hosts have used simple design principles and natural materials to create a warm and earthy look while remaining faithful to opulent Catalan Modernism. 

Your hosts have committed to using recycled luxury materials. However, when that's not been possible, they've made sure only to use recyclable ones, making this city-centre apartment a fantastic choice for the eco-conscious traveller.

Located on the border of Barcelona's El Born and Eixample districts, you couldn't be better placed to explore the Catalan capital. The majestic Arc de Triomf is just a four-minute walk away, while the 15th-century cathedral is no more than ten minutes away on foot. So after pounding the pavement, why not head to the iconic Barceloneta beach, where you can soak up some sun and frolic in the surf.

Reclaimed Utopia

Netflix

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.

Black Tea

Located in the heart of El Born — Barcelona's epicentre of cool — this apartment is surrounded by exclusive boutiques, hip bars open late into the night and the Picasso Museum, which is only four minutes' walk away. Inside the home, we admired the rustic touches left in after a recent renovation, particularly the exposed brickwork and wooden beams. You can instantly tell it will be a lovely place to escape the midday sun, with the delicate curtains on either side of the French doors fluttering about in the breeze and the parquet floor running throughout feeling cool to the touch on bare feet. When you fancy soaking up some rays, however, the building has a communal roof terrace complete with seats, a dining table and a charming view over the city's rooftops.

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. 

La Baule Gallery

Outdoor Seating

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.

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.

Like a breath of fresh air above the busy activity of Barcelona’s historic centre, Flor de Loto is completely modern and tranquil. The crowning glory is the private twenty-five square metre terrace – a plant-filled haven with incredibly generous seating space. This is the perfect spot to work, dine or just relax with an aperitif after a day spent on your feet. In the tented lounge area, with its hanging lamps and cosy sofas, you can lie back and take in Barcelona's enchanting night sky. The air conditioner and fans inside the home will keep you cool in the warmer months, and high ceilings will fill the home with air and light. Step outside your building and you’re in the heart of vibrant, trendy El Born, bursting with bohemian boutiques and local favourite tapas bars. 


Flor de Loto

Located in the iconic Eixample barrio, this elegant apartment is a salve to Barcelona’s busy streets. Inside, soft white walls and muted tones are classic and calming, while the vaulted ceiling, French windows, and a strong preference for wood over plastic give this home a rustic feel in spite of its modern design features. Sink into those gloriously soft sofas with a café con leche, listening to the birdsong in the treetops just the other side of the balcony doors. Once you’re feeling rested and rejuvenated, it’s a ten-minute stroll to the leafy boulevards of Passeig de Gracia, with its luxury stores and Modernist architecture. Foodies with a penchant for fine dining should stay local, the coveted Enric Granados walkway is home to a number of upscale eateries.

House of Arches

The Eixample district is packed with boutique shopping, fine-dining restaurants, and stylish bars. Of course, as the area is also famous for Gaudí masterpieces such as Casa Milà and Casa Batlló, we think it might be pretty handy to live less than a twenty-minute walk from both? In this sumptuous apartment, you’ll be able to stroll home from architectural marvels with ease. Speaking of which, we love the traditional aspects of the home – high ceilings and French windows with wrought-ironwork are a must for flats in this area. Elegant furniture accentuates the look, like wooden antiques and the flowing curtains which beautifully frame the Catalan sunlight. Fresh flowers bring an organic feel to the home, contrasting the modernity of the glass-topped tables where they’re placed. And from large, comfortable bedrooms, you can peer over the balconette to admire street views and pick out a café for lunch as you plan the day ahead. With the Urquinaona metro stop just a four-minute walk, this apartment is perfectly situated for local attractions, as well as visiting sights further afield.

Situated close to the lovely Ciutadella Park and the Arc de Triomf, this apartment has a small balcony and minimal furniture for maximum space. We think it's a great choice for families – your host may be able to provide a cot and high chair if you're travelling with little ones, and well-behaved pets are welcome. The decor is a charming blend of original features from when the home was first built in 1910, along with more modern elements to make your stay comfortable and easy.

La Casa Joana

This rustic yet modern apartment is located right in the heart of Barcelona, putting the very best of the city within strolling distance. Exposed brick, timber beams and Scandi-style furnishings come together nicely to create a stylish environment that’s both inviting and practical. While the well-appointed kitchen and comfortable beds feel just like home, the communal roof terrace and attentive reception staff are facilities you’re more likely to find in a trendy hotel. Get to know your El Born neighbourhood with a mosey through its historic streets. Find a tucked-away bistro for tapas and wine after checking out the Chocolate Museum, Picasso Museum and the El Born Culture and Memorial Centre, each no more than five minutes from your building. And when you’ve had your fill of the city, don your sun hat and escape to Barceloneta Beach, located only a fifteen-minute walk away.

Cinder Reach

Barbeque

It's hard to find a terrace of this size in Eixample. Barcelona's tourist heart has it all, from Catalan modernist masterpieces to intimate cafes loved by locals. House of Lys has a great shell, although we'd love to see more personality in the decor itself. With plenty of light, space, and comfort, it's a great option for those whose priorities are functionality and location. 

House of Lys

Located on leafy Girona Street in Barcelona, this home offers a lovely combination of traditional charm and modern edge. The soothing blue tones of the living room and the colourful floor tiles make it a stylish sanctuary where you can relax when you're not exploring the hectic city. To keep you entertained there's a collection of books, and also a piano where you can practise your scales or play a tune for your fellow guests. The balcony is another added bonus – it's the ideal spot to sip your morning coffee alfresco or indulge in a nightcap at the end of the day. And, the location in Eixample puts you in a fantastic spot for sightseeing. The area has the largest concentration of Art Nouveau buildings in Europe, and you'll love wandering through the streets and admiring the beautiful architecture. Plaça de Catalunya is less than ten minutes away, while Gaudi's stunning modernist works, Casa Batlló and Casa Mila are both reachable on foot in under twenty minutes. 

The City Orchid

Fifteen minutes north of Barceloneta beach, shake off the sand and make yourself at home in the El Born district. This vibrant region of the city has enough winding streets of cafés, bars, restaurants, and boutiques to keep you busy for days. But in such a bustling area, you’ll need a flat to relax in. The design of this home combines old-world Catalan architecture with modern furniture. We love the exposed brick and rock walls, plus vaulted ceilings showing original wooden beams. The modernity comes with understated decor such as large, grey linen sofas paired with gold and marble-topped tables. Your bedroom is innovatively situated on a corner, meaning you’ve got light coming in from various angles through those huge windows. With its own little balcony to perch on, this is the perfect place to wake up in and enjoy your espresso. Another option is heading up to the communal roof terrace (but get up early for the sun loungers). Before tourists start streaming down into the Gothic Quarter, take a morning walk through its quaint, cobbled streets and you’ll end up at the Mercat de la Boqueria in just over fifteen minutes. For the afternoon, wander the vast green spaces of the Parc de la Ciutadella just over five minutes away. And the cocktail bars of El Born will be waiting for you in the evening.

Cinder Drop

If you’re staying in El Born, one of Barcelona’s trendiest neighbourhoods, then you need an apartment to match – fortunately, this beachy boho abode is just the ticket. We loved how finca-style ceilings juxtapose the modern, sleek black accents and plaster-effect walls. Straw hanging lamps and an abundance of woven textures add a sense of grounding that encourages you to slow down and switch off. And where better to put your feet up than the covered terrace. Spend unhurried mornings sipping milky coffees in the hanging chair before setting the table ready for a breakfast of local produce. 

Afternoons are to be spent sunning yourself on Barceloneta Beach, just a fifteen-minute mosey from your doorstep. Enjoy picnics in the glorious Ciutadella Park, five minutes away, and gentle strolls through the medieval streets that surround your building. At the end of the day, head into the Gothic Quarter for glasses of sangria in old-world tapas bars.

Inspired by Nature

This apartment caught our eye for its prime location near Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. Walking distance from Barcelona Cathedral, Parc de la Ciutadella and various museums and restaurants, you couldn't ask for a better neighbourhood to call home. The apartment has a little wear and tear, and since it's on the second floor of a building without a lift, you'll want to pack light. That said, we like the contemporary design, which has a dash of Spanish flair in the colourful tiles. A double sofa bed keeps sleeping arrangements flexible, too.

A Flamenco Breeze

Rooftop Terrace

The cultural hub of El Born is a district that’s certainly full of life, but not so full of tourists. Find cafés and bars hidden down intriguing alleyways, or visit the enormous Parc de la Ciutadella for a taste of the natural world. Six minutes away, this apartment has a bird’s eye view over it all. And with galleries like Moco Museum and Museu Picasso just a seven-minute stroll from home, life is pretty peachy on the ground too.

Tasteful, bold, and multicultural – three words that could describe the area as well as these interiors. Typical Catalan design comes through tiling and timber beamed ceilings, but there’s a nod to Japanese influence from the bamboo partition to the bedroom. Plants, wicker, and woven textures bring a feeling of Bali into this studio-like space, while the modern, charcoal kitchen is reminiscent of an industrial NYC apartment.

But it doesn’t end there. Pause the record player and head to the luxe roof terrace for spectacular views over El Born and neighbouring Barri Gòtic. Think siestas on the loungers, brunches at the dining set, or sunsets on the sofa  (pitcher of sangría optional).

Parakeet Perch

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

On a leafy tree-lined street in central Barcelona, this apartment makes the perfect setting for a dreamy city escape. From Antoni Gaudí’s modernist masterpieces to the vibrant foodie scene, laid-back beaches and lively buzz of Plaça de Catalunya (just an eight-minute walk away), there’s everything you could need to experience the magic of Mediterranean living.

Inside, you’ll find traditional features sitting in perfect harmony with contemporary comforts. From the open-plan living room to the cosy bedrooms, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of welcome. So whether you’re enjoying a morning coffee by the little balcony or sharing drinks as the sun goes down, this is the kind of space that perfectly adapts to suit the need of the moment.  

Days can be spent wandering the narrow medieval streets of the Gothic Quarter (just a short walk away), pausing in trendy bars and savouring spectacular views from Park Güell. And when you’ve admired the city’s artistic landscape from multiple vantage points, you’ll find this apartment provides a wonderful refuge – the perfect place to relax and unwind in style. 

La Casa Roja

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

Sound System

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.
