Right off the famous Avenida Diagonal, just a few paces from the waters of Mar Bella beach.

Reno’d neoclassical gem from 1869 – tho they kept the mosaic tile floors, high ceilings & killer sliding doors. They were just too good to update.

Less than a 10-minute walk to both the beach and the metro station. That's what we call a 'win-win'.

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

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

Sleek style that marries historic details with modern updates.

Crazy-high ceilings (7 metres!) and lighting that lets you change the colour of your room to suit your mood.

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

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

19th-century palace still boasts the original façade, floor and central staircase.

Drops ya in the pedestrian-friendly historic centre, smack dab in between La Rambla & the waterfront.

Put on at least semi-sensible shoes – lots to see nearby. Park de la Ciudadela, Triumph Arch, Gothic Barrio and Plaza Cataluña await.

In the big beating heart of Barcelona, where all of the cosmopolitan action is.

Built in 1899, this historical building preserves its original features without skimping on mod cons like free WiFi.

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

Each room’s a little different… just like you, snowflake.

Get into vacay mode with a welcome glass of bubbly; continue the feeling at the rooftop pool.

An easy jaunt to the Plaza Sant Jaume, and all the shops, bars and restos in the lively El Born ‘hood.

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

Get the night (or afternoon) started without leaving the onsite bar.

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

Enviable spot near the Cathedral (obvs), boutiques, Plaça Sant Jaume & Portal de l’Angel. Gaudí groupie? Free WiFi helps you map out the key sights.

Classic façade with design-y interiors, strollable to Las Ramblas (for yet more strolling).

Set in the chic former medieval village that is now the Sarrià-Sant Gervasi district.

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

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

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

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

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

Perched in the heart of Old Town, steps from the city’s famous Las Ramblas with its Boqueria Market, street performers and shops.
