In the heart of Barcelona's oldest neighbourhood, this cosy apartment enjoys views of Ciutadella park from its private balcony. The high ceilings and glass doors let sunlight in and really open up the space. While it's not one of our most exciting homes, the bunk beds are great for kids and the central location makes it easy to explore the el Born area. Although parking isn't free, you won't need a car to make the most of your stay. Barceloneta beach, museums and restaurants are all within walking distance.
