About this property
Nestled between La Bordeta and El Poble-Sec in the bohemian suburb of Hospitalet de Llobregat in Barcelona, this sleek and contemporary four-bedroom split-level apartment has been thoughtfully designed to provide a comfortable and stylish stay for up to seven guests, making it an ideal choice for families or groups of friends looking to experience Barcelona while enjoying a slightly quieter atmosphere away from the bustling (at times wonderfully chaotic) city centre.
Upon entering the apartment, you'll be greeted by an open-plan living area with double-height ceilings seamlessly combining the seating and dining spaces. The décor exudes simplicity and elegance, with clean lines, modern furnishings, and tasteful accents, offering an understated yet cosy spot to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the city. At the same time, the adjacent dining space provides ample room for enjoying a laid-back meal together. On this level, there is also a modern and well-equipped kitchen where you can channel your hidden (perhaps very hidden) culinary talents as you try to replicate some of the mouth-watering flavours you will no doubt have encountered on your journeys around the Catalan capital.
Upstairs, you will find the four simple yet striking bedrooms, the luxurious-feeling master suite, then two inviting twin rooms, each with a pair of single beds, and finally, a light-filled single room – perfect perhaps for a teenager. With comfortable beds and tasteful finishing touches, each bedroom offers a tranquil retreat where you can rest and rejuvenate after a day of discovery. The apartment has two bathrooms: the master ensuite and an additional family bathroom, both of which have been finished to the same high standard as the rest of the home and offer a relaxing space where you can refresh and indulge in a spot of pampering (perhaps before a night on the tiles, sampling the famously exuberant Barcelona nightlife).
Staying in this apartment allows guests to experience the best of Barcelona while being slightly removed from the non-stop fiesta of the city centre, as L'Hospitalet de Llobregat offers a residential environment with excellent connectivity to the heart of Barcelona. Nearby amenities, such as parks, shopping centres, and transportation options, provide convenience and accessibility and so make it an excellent choice for families or groups of friends looking to enjoy Barcelona while having a peaceful retreat to return to.
Located just outside the bustling city centre of Barcelona, in a quieter and more residential part, Hospitalet de Llobregat offers a delightful taste of authentic Catalan life. Nestled in the shadow of the iconic Montjuïc mountain, this charming neighbourhood provides a serene retreat while still within easy reach of the city's vibrant attractions.
