Our selection of Barcelona unique hotels

Some of our clients ask us to recommend a hotel for their stay in Barcelona. It is always difficult to give good advice because choosing a hotel depends on your preferences, your interests and also your budget.

Choosing a hotel also depends on the neighborhood in which you want to stay you can consult our guide to Barcelona neighborhoods.
