Incorporating soft tones, natural textures and warm wood accents, this beach-inspired apartment ideally located in trendy El Born connects guests with the very best of Barcelona’s cultural charms. Spend unhurried mornings reclining in the breezy living space, idly sipping a café con leche in the hanging chair or tucking into flaky pastries at the dining table. Should you have some business to attend to, there’s a dedicated office space to make remote working a breeze. Take a wander through your neighbourhood’s medieval streets, stopping to soak up the sun in Ciutadella Park or to pore over masterpieces in the renowned Picasso Museum, a mere five-minute stroll from your doorstep. When exploring becomes thirsty walk, nip into a nearby, old-school taberna – we recommend a glass of refreshing tinto de verano with a side of pintxo if you’re feeling peckish.

Local guide
About Gothic Quarter
Gothic Quarter is a true tourist hotspot, filled with shops and famous attractions on every corner. During the day, urban explorers fill its narrow, stone-paved streets, admiring the neo-Gothic sights – but it’s the night that sees the Quarter truly come to life. Home to some of the city’s most popular restaurants, bars, and quirky shops that stay open till late, the vibrant area is popular among young travellers and party-goers seeking the best Barcelona has to offer.
