Rooftop terrace for scanning the city scene & nearby metro for getting up close and personal with it.

Don’t be fooled by the classic exterior. There's a Tootsie-Pop-like surprise inside. Make the trendy Lounge your 1st stop.

Ideal spot near the (nope, stillllll not finished) Sagrada Familia and steps from Les Glories shopping centre.

Nobody leaves here hungry. Enjoy poolside tacos and margaritas up on the roof at Tope, or tuck into Detroit-style pizza at Four Corners, a terrace, all-day restaurant and slice shop.

In a city bursting with culture, you'll be right by one of the biggest (and most Barcelona-est) attractions – the Sagrada Familia.

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

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

Quiet locale situated just a 10-min walk from the train station for access into the centre.

Right off the AP7, 7km from El Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya race track(!). Fuel up on breakfast before heading out.

Airy, modern, minimalist vibe in the historic centre.

In a classic vintage building steps from (yes that) Casa Milà. Plus a rooftop pool for when you’re all Gaudí’d out.

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

Stylish hideaway in the heart of Paseo de Gracia. Tucked inside a fab 1906 modernist building.

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

An easy 15-min jaunt to Gaudí’s super-famous (yet still unfinished) Sagrada Familia. A must-tour.

Semi-secret garden area rocks a pool and terrace. Soak up some rays or hide out under an umbrella (gossip mag optional, but sunnies essential).

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

Nothing like a good ol' fashioned game of Marco Polo in the pool.

Within walking distance of public transportation for easy access to all the must-see sights.

Marble baths, modern décor, wood accents. Classy.

Excellently located between the Diagonal and Verdaguer Metro stops at the edge of the Eixample.

Right next to the shopping and dining action on Paseo de Gracia, as well as the Diagonal subway stop.

Set along one of the most exclusive streets in the city, Passeig de Gracia, it speaks to international elegance.

Building is classic, rooms are sleek and contemporary.

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

Sleek Scandinavian-inspired digs between Diagonal Ave and the shopping street Rambla de Catalunya.

Ideal spot steps from Catalunya Square, near the boutiques, famous Ramblas, Gothic Quarter and Gaudí geniusness.

Goodbye carpet and tacky wallpaper; hello hardwood and hip design.

Located along the modernist route, with brag-worthy next door neighbor, Gaudí’s Paseo de Gracia. Point, ogle and Instagram accordingly.

An easy 5-min stroll from the Passeig de Gracia train station – steps from the lovely Plaça de Catalunya.
