The northeastern region of Sant Andreu might not be on your radar, but this fabulously unknown spot is perfect for escaping the city’s throngs of tourists, while still having easy access to all the action. In this serene, village-like area with a traditional Catalan vibe, your apartment is just a six-minute stroll from the Fabra i Puig metro (meaning you’ll be at the Sagrada Familia in just fifteen minutes). Heading inside, white walls create a bright, fresh feel to the main living space. With sunlight flooding in through floor-to-ceiling windows, and French doors opening onto a leafy, private balcony, the whole space feels airy and relaxed. As you can step outside from either of the large, modern bedrooms – each with their own unique, decorative headboard – it’s the perfect spot to gather everyone in the morning with an espresso. Head down into the peaceful streets to find local delights like the Parish of Sant Pacià, eleven minutes away. The ubiquitous work of Gaudí made it out to Sant Andreu, where he designed the ornate mosaic floor of this neo-gothic church. This is truly a place where you can discover hidden details off the tourist track.

About El Born
El Born is the ‘it’ neighbourhood of Barcelona. It’s the type of place that will serve you Japanese fusion before traditional tapas and showcase one-of-a-kind boutiques rather than chains or traditional designer fashion. It’s a sanctuary for trendsetters who want to see a different face of Barcelona, and much less crowded than its neighbouring Gothic Quarter. For the culturally curious, there’s also a Picasso Museum and the Santa Maria del...
