Serviced Apartments in Barcelona

Barcelona is, of course, a world-famous city and the second-largest in Spain after the capital, Madrid. Including the surrounding suburbs, Barcelona has a population of 3.2 million people and is one of the most important ports in all of the Mediterranean. Millions of people stay in Barcelona serviced apartments each year to enjoy the city's wonderful climate, cosmopolitan atmosphere, culture, history and fashion among many other attractions.

Among the principal attractions in the city is the Gothic Quarter, otherwise known as the Barri Gòtic, in the local Catalan dialect. This is found in the centre of the old town and many of the buildings date back to Roman and mediaeval times. A number of these impressive buildings are UNESCO World Heritage Sites and the work of Antoni Gaudi is particularly lauded. His masterpiece is the Sagrada Família, an incredible Roman Catholic Church which (although still unfinished) is one of the most impressive buildings you will ever see. This and many other impressive architectural feats are within easy walking distance of Barcelona city centre (center) apartments.

If you are looking for more of a beach break you will be pleased to know that Barcelona has seven beaches and almost 3 miles of coastline. Booking a Barcelona holiday rental or self-catered apartment next to either the  Barceloneta or Sant Sebastià beaches will put you right next to one of the two largest and most popular of those beaches, each being over 1km in length. Barcelona is constantly considered to be one of the top 10 beach cities in the world - which is quite unusual given the city's overall size.

Back into the city, and Barcelona is also known for having a wonderful array of museums and cultural centres to visit. The principle of these is the National Museum of Art of Catalonia which presents you with not only an excellent array of national treasures, but also many which reflect the region’s Catalonian culture. Whichever Barcelona apartment rental you choose, you will not be too far away from an excellent art gallery or two. The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art and the Picasso Museum are both excellent destinations for fans of those subjects.

As well as the beaches, cultural venues and architecture, there are also world-class shopping centres, wonderful Spanish restaurants serving traditional cuisine, and a fantastic nightlife to experience in Barcelona. Staying in a Barcelona aparthotel will present you with a modern and youthful city, yet also one steeped in history and culture.
