Choose the right district for your apartment in Barcelona

Every district in Barcelona has its own charme and flair and as the city doesn't belong to the biggest in Europe, they're all very well connected. Another big advantage is that many of the main monuments are close together and easy to reach walking. In the following we'd like to present you the most popular districts to rent an apartment in the Catalan capital:

• - L’Eixample Dreta: In this district the streets are wide and bright. The buildings are beautifully decorated with the taste of the modernism. Most of the times you'll find works of art from the famous architects Antoni Gaudí or Lluís Domenech i Muntaner.
• - Sagrada Familia: This quarter is located right inside of L’Eixample Dreta and entirely influenced by the master piece of Gaudí. Many of our GowithOh apartments have a great view of the Sagrada Familia.
• - Barceloneta is the district you should choose, if you're looking for beach holidays in Barcelona. In a GowithOh apartment in Barceloneta you can be sure to have the sea directly at your doorstep and not only that, but also many bars, restaurants and a vibrant nightlife.
• - El Gótico and el Born together form the historic centre of Barcelona. If you rent an apartment in el Gótico or in el Born small romantic streets, unique little boutiques and hidden ateliers will be awaiting you.

Why is a Barcelona apartment a better option than a hotel or hostel?

In Barcelona the price-performance ratio can vary strongly from hotel to hotel and since you haven’t found a hotel which you’re using frequently or friends have suggested to you the state of the room will remain a surprise until you’re opening the door to your hotel or hostel room. With our hand-picked apartments this can’t happen.

Of course the financial advantage for those who travel with a smaller budget is bigger with a Barcelona Apartment. After a nice stroll over markets in Barcelona, such as el Mercat de Sant Antoni or el Mercat de la Boquería, you can prepare your food conveniently in your own kitchen and enjoy a nice picnic at the beach or one of the many parks in the city. If you’re traveling in a group you can even plan your private dinner party. No need to set the alarm to make it in time for the hotel breakfast. Take your time when you explore the beauty of Barcelona.

The size and features between a comfortable apartment and a hotel room are also worth mentioning. In our holiday apartments in Barcelona you can feel just as at home. Relax on the sofa after a long day in the city and enjoy the city more like a local than a tourist.

The most comfortable mean of transport is the metro, which nearly covers the whole city. Matching the number of days you stay in the city you can find the matching ticket. The 109 bus lines bring you everywhere you can’t go with the metro. To make getting around Barcelona even easier we recommend you to download the mobile app from TMB. Check your itinerary even faster.

The Climate

Barcelona has probably the best weather in comparison with other Spanish cities. Due to its coastal location in the northeast of Spain it doesn’t get that hot in summer, but it also barely rains. Barcelona enjoys 2,524 hours of sunshine a year, which is almost double the amount other European cities have. This is also why locals spent most of their free-time outside, soaking up the sun at the numerous terraces and gardens.

Food and Drink

What comes to your mind thinking of Spanish food in general? Sure… tapas, tapas, tapas! Apart from the famous appetizers the Catalan cuisine has so much more to offer! Due to its direct location to the sea the menus in Barcelona are very often marked with different kinds of fish and seafood dishes, not to forget about the typical paella.

The Mediterranean climate has a huge influence on the eating culture throughout all Spanish cities and so as well in Barcelona. The times for every meal are moved at least 2h further than in Nordic countries and locals eat more fruit and cold dishes.
