A centrally located apartment in the heart of youthful and lively Gracia neighbourhood, Barcelona.
This unique and characterful apartment nestled in the heart of the Gracia neighbourhood allows the guest visiting Barcelona to experience a slice of life as lived by the locals.
The area surrounding the apartment:
The Cristobal apartment is situated in the heart of the Barcelona district called Gracia. Little more than a village in 1820, it was connected to Barcelona by a country lane named Passeig de Gracia. This street is now known as the fifth avenue of Barcelona with shopping of all kinds to satisfy anyone's needs. The area is quite different from its well developed and spacious urban plan of Exiample, with meandering streets and attractive small squares where locals meet and chat. The most important of these is the Plaça Rius i Taulet which is the site of the pre-1897 town hall and magnificent clock tower. But the most well known of all the sites is Gaudi's much visited Parc Güell, this incredible fusion of modernism and urban leisure is the ideal way to spend an afternoon during your visit to Barcelona. Gracia is a wonderful location to stay in while in Barcelona, it is a lively and colourful neighbourhood with many great local bars, cafés and restuarants to visit where mingling amongst the locals you might learn a thing or two. A mere six minutes' walk to the Joanic metro stop and within a couple of minutes you are downtown enjoying the hustle and bustle of Barcelona's Ciutat Vella.
The apartment:
This Barcelona apartment is ideally situated on a quiet street in this great neighbourhood. It is on the first floor of a superb old building that has been completely renovated with loads of character. PLEASE NOTE THAT ALTHOUGH THE BUILDING HAS AN ELEVATOR, IT STARTS FROM THE FIRST FLOOR.
Walk through the front door and you will find yourself in the dining/living area, with modern tendencies mingling with the old features that were able to be preserved, such as beautiful wooden beams with high ceilings and the typical Catalan exposed brick walls. There is also parquet floor throughout the apartment. In the living area, you will find a comfortable sofa where you can relax after a long day sightseeing watching DVD's or simply enjoying a glass of local wine...The modern dining table will comfortably seat four people.
The kitchen has a gas cooker and comes fully equipped with many of the modern conveniences needed to make your stay hassle free, such as juicer, coffee maker, dishwasher, microwave, etc... should you decide to prepare a meal from fresh foods bought at the local market which is a mere 30 seconds from your front door.
The apartment has two bedrooms, the main bedroom comes with a double bed and ample wardrobe space to store your belongings. From here, you have access to a lovely gallery where you will find a sofa...the perfect place to relax at the end of a long day sightseeing. The second bedroom has two singe beds and also comes with ample wardrobe space.
The bathroom is newly done and comes complete with walk-in shower, toilet, bidet and washbasin. Fresh towels are available on arrival.
Whether you are here with family or with friends, this apartment is perfect as your headquaters for your Barcelona adventure.
