Gaudi's Telescope

Gaudi's Telescope: Catalonia

With a direct view of Gaudí's masterpiece Casa Batlló, this luxury home's location is an indisputable superpower. So, take a seat on the balcony with the complimentary bottle of cava and admire the vista here or from one of the beds. But that's not all it has to offer – the lovely hosts have made it their mission to compete with the architectural masterpieces in Eixample. A love for peacocks and flamingos is reflected in the many paintings and statues around this home, while the contrast between turquoise and pink is a dominant theme. Many of the design choices pay homage to traditional Catalan architecture and design, making this home more than just a comfortable place to stay. This residence is spread out over two wings, so it's ideal for a group of friends or extended family looking for some privacy. If you’re not satisfied with just seeing Casa Batlló from your window – it’s just a two-minute saunter away. This apartment is right on Paseo De Gracia with its museums and designer boutiques galore, while lively Plaça Catalunya is under a ten-minute stroll. Or, visit one of Barcelona's most iconic attractions, the Sagrada Familia, just over a twenty-minute walk away.
