Catalan Jazz

Catalan Jazz: Catalonia

Inspired by the beauty and vastness of valley landscapes, this bright apartment in Barcelona’s elegant Gràcia neighbourhood puts you in an ideal position to explore Gaudí’s architectural wonders as well as countless of the city’s other sights. Blending modern design elements with traditional Catalan features – from the vaulted terracotta ceilings to the Juliet balconies and tiled floors – this home is the perfect mix of styles to provide a wonderfully authentic Barcelona stay. We love the plethora of green leafy houseplants that add life and colour to the cool neutral palette, and the record player that’s all set up to get your evenings off to a jazzy start over a glass of Spanish wine. There’s a desk space here to help you work from home if needed, while the two comfortable bedrooms are visions of laid-back comfort. Outside of your home, Gràcia’s 19th-century boulevards and pedestrian lanes are teeming with indie boutiques, cool Catalan bistros, wine bars, galleries, and arthouse cinemas to explore. You’re also just a twenty-minute walk from both La Sagrada Família and Casa Milà and Parc Güell is a fifteen-minute stroll from your door.


Home truths:

*Keyless self-check-in is available – the building's entrance is shared with the other residents

*There's no parking here, but we recommend skipping the car and making use of Barcelona's public transport instead – Joanic station is a four-minute walk away
*Barcelona–El Prat Airport is fifty-four-minutes away by public transport or thirty minutes away by car
