Description Glam Rocks: Barcelona

This glamourous serviced apartment is one we love for its gorgeous shared rooftop terrace with a swimming pool and panoramic views over Barcelona. Relax in one of the hammocks, enjoy a barbecue or watch a movie in the open-air cinema. There’s a gym with a sauna too – with so much on offer here, you won’t want to leave.

Inside, this home has been created by the prestigious interior designer Jaime Beriestain, blending artisan and Mediterranean styles with modern and eclectic. The modernist balcony overlooks the street below, while the living room provides a lovely view of a pretty courtyard. Rustle up a Catalan feast in the kitchen with its high-end appliances or head out to one of the fine restaurants in this exclusive district.

This place lets you get off the beaten track, but there are still plenty of attractions to enjoy. Casa Milà is a twenty-minute walk away, while the Fundació Julio Muñoz Ramonet is five minutes on foot and has oasis style gardens with elegant fountains and statues.
