Tiptoes On The Roof

Tiptoes On The Roof: Catalonia

Functional but with plenty of charm too, this home in Barcelona first caught our eye with its exposed brick and Catalan vaulted ceilings – all while adding in plenty of modern amenities. We also love that there is a little balcony here, handy for catching a glimpse of the city before you head out to explore. Nearby you'll find the Old Town, Barcelona's port, and the Las Arenas shopping centre, meaning you'll be swamped with choices for ways to spend your day.

Home truths:
*Your host owns multiple apartments within this building, so the exact view, furnishings and layout might differ from the photos
*Parking in Barcelona can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
*At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area
*Hen and stag parties are not allowed at this home
*The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
