Next to the lively Francesc Macià square, and named in honour of Mae West, the saucy 1930s actress known for her irony.

Tasty food and drinks are at the ready at onsite GourmetBar.

Set mere steps to public transpo. An easy 20-min ride gets ya to the bustle of the city centre.

Lobby makes a bold style statement. Bar/breakfast area is more understated (without sacrificing an ounce of style, mind you).

Free WiFi, so you can brag about your cool trip in real time.

Ideal setting where the Gothic Quarter and El Raval ‘hoods converge – walkable to tonnns of the biggies, plus local cafés and bars.

With the metro, bus station & railway so close, this gem is a solid spot to drop an anchor (if only for a night).

Just outside the theatre district, overlooking Plaça de la Bella Dorita and the iconic El Molino Theater.

Steps from the Sants Station (hence the name). Hurry over – a welcoming committee (in the form of local food basket goodies) awaits.

Manages to toe the line between cosy and sleek, with homey rooms and a designer dining space.

Airy, modern, minimalist vibe in the historic centre.

Each of the 63 rooms rocks a different destination theme – from London to Santorini – plus a free smartphone(!).

Hangry? Find food options that hit the spot, right in-house.

Close to Camp Nou as well as public transport for easy access to the city centre.

Lounge-worthy rooftop pool with killer panoramic views is the perfect spot to spend your siesta.

Free WiFi: you gotta have it, so they bring it.

Maritime theme plays out in cruise ship-inspired architecture and subtle natural and blue tones.

Tucked on the outskirts of the city but walking distance from public transportation for easily reaching central Barcelona.
