This modern, crowd-pleasing home is a picture of industrial chic nestled in-between the beach and Barcelona's historic Old Town. Stepping in to look around at the decor, you'll notice low-hanging lampshades, vibrant chairs and a quirky pallet coffee table that we really loved. Natural light pours into the apartment through crittall windows, while super high beamed ceilings and a clever layout make for a light and airy spot to unwind with friends or family after an afternoon spent sightseeing. Rustle up a plate of paella in the sleek metro-tiled kitchen – complete with a sociable breakfast bar to come together for a glass of Barolo. Better still, enjoy alfresco dining out on your private terrace with painted brick walls and garden furniture. As for El Poblenou, it's a residential, quiet neighbourhood without the city noise – and yet under a twenty-minute wander from the iconic La Sagrada Familia.

Although this home can accommodate up to eight guests, two people will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room
While this home does have a terrace, guests are not allowed to use it after 10pm, as this is residential neighburhood that's sensitive to noise
There's a low beam at the bottom of the stairs from the living room that you'll need to be extra careful with – mind your head
There isn't a lot of storage space in this home, so you won't be able to unpack a large suitcase in any of the rooms
