Visitors are spoilt in Barcelona with incredible seafood, cured hams, delicious tapas and fabulous delicacies, all served in the city’s captivating settings. It might be a 1920’s elegant art nouveau dining room, a classic Basque-styled tapas bar, a Galician seafood tavern or waterside, watching the sunset. Las Rambla enjoys a wonderful market where you can taste delicious food and wines and alfresco dining. Hidden away, there are charming small tapas bars serving local cured Iberico ham, gazpacho soup and la bomba, a potato croquette served with spicy tomato sauce and a healthy portion of aioli. Many bars serve the famous local Estrella as well as delicious sangria and cocktails. Live music is in abundance with jazz spilling out of basements and the rhythms of flamenco enthralling the crowds. The nightclubs are renowned. Barcelona is a city that never sleeps!
Gaudi’s Casa Batllo is literally around the corner from Casa Bruc. It features some of the most breathtaking detail ever used by Gaudi in his architecture. The styling of the building is truly organic with very few straight lines to be found anywhere. The shapes curve from one feature to the next.

Imanol's APARTMENT is first and foremost a fantastic location right on the corner of Placa de Catalunya. It's in the heart of city with easy walking access to most everything in the gothic quarter and the metro is right there as is the airport bus. The location could not be better. We also thought the unit worked perfectly for our family of 6 with everyone getting a bedroom and there was plenty of room for us to spread out and relax when back at the apartment. Overall, it was a great stay!

This is a great location for families or big groups. It is close to the Ramblas and Gothic Quarter. One block away on Carrer de Casp street we found two great local restaurants- Moussol and Casa Carmen. Awesome food and atmosphere away from the tourist crowd. 24hr market and great coffee shops are nearby. Easy and safe location. Beautiful interior design.
