Gare de Paseo de Gracia : locations de vacances

Appartement très spacieux. Et silencieux. Bien situé.La chambre avec les 2 lits superposés donne sur la cage d'escalier avec ascenseur. Que l'on entend de temps en temps.Vous devez récupérer les clés dans un supermarché, ou les gérants parle un très mauvais anglais.

This large Studio Apartment, was truely in the heart of Barcelona. A 5th Floor apt in a beautiful and well kept building. large enough for x4 people, but i would deffinately say, fantastic for a couple. You walk out of the impressionate iron and glass doors onto the street in the morning, and you are instantantly hit with the adoring atmosphere of a great city. Although located next to the frenetic Placa Catalunyu, the apartment was peaceful and well sound proofed with a very attractive view from the windows. From the moment we walked in, we felt comfortable and at home, it was almost a crime to leave the apt ;-)), but Barcelona is a wonderful city to explore. There was attention to detail, with flowers and wine on arrival. It was clean and attractive. We visited in January, and the heating and hot water worked perfectly, although the weather was an excellent 16°c when we were there. We had a minor problem with the toilet 'flush', but Derek the owner had it corrected immediately, and his attentiveness was well noted and appreciated. I do not wish to compliment this apartment any further, as i fear it will become too popular, and i may not be able to book it again in the autumn. The open top tour bus, which you can catch 300m from the apt, is a great way to start your trip as it gives you a good bearing of the city. Visit Casa Batllo (600m from apt) an absolute must, as well as the Boukeria Market, 10 mins walk from apt along La Rambla. My final tips are to take a guided tour of the Palau Musica Catalana (10 mins walk from apt), and take a cocktail or two at the wonderful 'El Nacional' centre (just 6mins walk from apt) A heartfelt thankyou Derek
