Sometimes when we travel, we become particularly excited by the idea of staying in a certain neighbourhood, either next to a monument that we love or by a certain location like the beach. Therefore, here is a list of three apartments that are near some emblematic monuments in Barcelona. All of these apartments can be found on the OK Apartment Barcelona website, a great place to go if you're looking to see what kind of accommodation is available in Barcelona.
Apartment Top Sagrada Familia:
Without a doubt, this is one of the most wonderful apartments on offer, not only because when you look out of the window you can see the architectural masterpiece and most visited tourist attraction in Spain by Antoni Gaudí - La Sagrada Familia, but also for its modern decor. With parquet flooring and lots of natural light, it goes without saying that this accommodation is better than most luxury hotels. There is 70 sq metres of space and a capacity to sleep up to 6 people. What's more, apart from having La Sagrada Familia on your doorstep, you're only a 15 minute walk from Passeig de Gracia, where there are two more Guadí masterpieces, amongst other fantastic modernist buildings and the best highstreet in the city to go shopping. The price? €28 per person/night.
Apartment Beat Almatí II:
This is designer apartment (also with parquet flooring) can accommodate up to three people. With a spacious shower, it's located a few metres away from Park Güell. The park has been a public space for years, but in October 2013 it will cost €5 - €10 to enter. The park is an amazing world apart from the urban city where you can escape to the curves, colours, and forms of Gaudí's imagination. The Gracía district in which the apartment is located is known for its authentic and non-touristic atmosphere. The prices start from €30 per person/night.
Apartment Gaudí Pedrera
In case you haven't guessed already, the final apartment is also near one of Guadí's works. An 8th floor apartment, you have spectacular views of Barcelona each and every day. Located right in front of La Pedrera on Passeig de Gracia, it has lots of natural light and can accommodation up to 7 people across its 70 sq metres. This property has 3 double bedrooms and is ideal if you want to stay in the city centre. It's on the best street in the city for shopping and you'll find many restaurants and bars in the area. It's a great starting point for any journey, with Casa Batlló, Las Ramblas, Barcelona Cathedral, and La Sagrada Familia all within walking distance.
