This apartment is a superb base in Barcelona. It’s in the vibrant La Dreta de l’Eixample neighbourhood, where you’ll find Gaudi-inspired architecture. There are plenty of bars, restaurants and shops nearby, so after a day spent sightseeing you can chill out with a glass of cava and a plate of bocadilla del dia. The apartment is cosy and comfortable, with all the modern amenities you might need during your stay – though only one bedroom and the living room have air conditioning. For such an attractive and laid-back base in the heart of the city, we can forgive a couple of warm nights though.

Local guide
About Sagrada Família
La Sagrada Família is the neighbourhood immediately surrounding Barcelona’s greatest and largest attraction - the Sagrada Família. As Gaudí’s opus magnum, the architectural behemoth has been in construction for over a century, and some say asking when will it be finished is the easiest way to anger a local. The immediate vicinity of the cathedral is always busy, but the rest of the area is upscale and residential, making it quieter than one would expect. The vast avenues are home to a variety of cafes, shops, and beautifully designed parks.
