Colours & Shapes: Catalonia

Situated in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, this 16th-century building is home to some of the smartest apartments in the city. If you’re anything like us, you’ll love the feel of this place’s postmodern interior, particularly the open-plan living room which comes with plenty of reading material for whiling away the evening after a busy day of sightseeing. Step onto your private patio and gaze out at the interior courtyard or make your way downstairs and blow off some steam with a few laps of the indoor pool. When it comes to communal facilities, this place ticks all our boxes.

If you’re here to soak up the sights and sounds of the city, you’re in luck – this home is within easy reach of all Barcelona’s major attractions, from Güell Palace to the Rambla De Mar. Go for a stroll through the Gothic Quarter’s historic streets or make a beeline for Port Vell where you’ll find plenty of eateries to satisfy your appetite. We can almost smell the patatas bravas now.
