Just a short walk from Gaudí’s famous Casa Milà and Casa Batlló in Barcelona’s Eixample neighbourhood, this bright, modern apartment puts you in a prime position to explore the best of the city’s history and culture.

Inside, Matisse prints and contemporary decor offer a stylish welcome in the sunny living area that boasts access to a street-facing balcony. Perch here with your morning coffee as you watch the hustle and bustle of daily below, or better yet, make your way up to the private terrace for even more sun-soaking opportunities. Decked out in Acapulco chairs, an outdoor dining set and an open-air shower, this is where you’ll want to gather for alfresco meals aplenty and soak up as much of those glorious Spanish rays as possible.

When you’re ready to head out into the city, however, you’ll find plenty of shops and tapas bars in the area, not to mention excellent public transport links to take you to Barcelona’s major attractions, including La Sagrada Familia and Barceloneta Beach.
