Where to stay in Barcelona
Picking where to stay in Barcelona depends on your holiday style. While sightseeing is top of everyone’s list – you don’t want to miss architectural masterpieces like Gaudi’s La Sagrada Familia, or visiting the iconic Picasso Museum – consider how you’d like to unwind afterwards. There are many places to stay in Barcelona and each has its own vibe. For a lively social scene, look for accommodation options along La Rambla and around Placa Catalunya. Quieter evenings can be found in the Gothic Quarter or Poble Sec. If five-star is the only way you travel, then Eixample is your home away from home.

Barcelona enjoys a Mediterranean climate, which generally means wetter months through autumn, spring and winter, with hot and dry summer days. We recommend visiting the Spanish city between May and September, when locals enjoy warm, balmy weather and 9:00 pm sunsets.
If there are two things that Barcelona is known for, it is jaw-dropping architectural feats and balmy nights eating Tapas.
