Mere metres from the Roman amphitheatre and that famous Balcón del Mediterráneo viewpoint.

Mere metres from the Roman amphitheatre and that famous Balcón del Mediterráneo viewpoint.

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

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

It’ll be hard to find a more airport-centric spot ‘cos these digs are set literally in Terminal 1.

Tucked on the outskirts of Barcelona and a half-hour drive from the centre.

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

Less than 10km from the centre of Barcelona, and well-connected via public transpo. (Plus free airport shuttle.)

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).

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

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

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

You’ll appreciate the galactic-inspired décor and futuristic furniture even if you’re not a Trekkie.

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