Beautiful and exquisitely decorated loft with historical ambiance. Situated in the Gothic Neighbourhood of Barcelona. This area was formerly surrounded by an ancient wall, of which many stones were reused for the construction of this building in 1850. A very privileged area close to all the city attractions: the historic down town with its attractive small streets and museums, Barceloneta and its beaches, and the Borne (also called Barrio de la Ribera). This neighbourhood enjoys a well-deserved reputation for high quality restaurants and fashion bars. Located 400 meters from the noisy Ramblas and the more commercial area close to Plaza Cataluña, and only 500 meters to “Estación de Francia” where you can take a direct train to the airport every half an hour since July 2006. The apartment is on the third floor without a lift. There are two large windows overlooking a very quiet street. Comprised of one 9x5m room with unique neoclassic ambiance. It includes a complete, modern american kitchen. The apartment evokes the city’s history with its wooden ceiling beams, wood floors and multiple details like its reinforcing iron central column or the original old brick arcs over the doors. During your stay in this apartment you will sense a part of the historical city and enjoy all of the attractive opportunities that it offers. Complete bathroom including a tub with old style legs in a classic and delicious ambiance. The apartment has air conditioning, 30' TV and everything you need to enjoy a comfortable and unforgettable stay. Houses up to 4 people with a double bed situated close to the entrance and a double sofa bed in contiguous room (separated by an old 4-door wardrobe and a curtain). Note: Extra 25 euros for check outs before 8:00 am.
For arrivals between 23.00hrs and 07.00hrs there is a supplement of 25€ to be paid directly to the owner on arrival. |

The Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter) is located at the heart of the city. It is often the first stop on the Barcelona adventure, once you have discovered the unique atmosphere of Las Ramblas, Barcelona’s emblematic strip which is lined with 1.3km of street performers and stalls filled with flowers, birds and animals.
The Gothic Quarter is a medieval town built on roman foundations, that is made up of a diverse mix of small squares and narrow streets. The area boasts a plethora of boutiques, bars and restaurants that blend in with the area’s ancient sights and make Barrà Gòtic the perfect place to enjoy Barcelona’s culture. In particular, the Fiesta Mayor, La Mercé, which take place at the end of September and fill the streets with art, music and culture.
The Gothic quarter stretches from Plaça Catalunya, in between la Rambla and VÃa Laietana, down to the old port. To get there take the metro to Catalunya (L3/L1), Liceu (L3), Drassanes (L3) or Jaume I (L4). The Portal del Angel, Barcelona’s main commercial street along with the neighbouring Passeig de Gracia, stretches from Plaza Catalunya to the square just outside the Cathedral and the roman walls which previously surrounded the city.
The majority of the city’s main attractions are easily accessible from this area, such as the Roman artefacts on display at the city’s History Museum at the quiet Plaça del Rei (King’s Square). Heading south, you’ll find the Plaça Reial (Royal Square) one of the most characteristic squares in the city. The numerous bars and restaurants have terraces shaded by the surrounding palm trees, perfect for taking a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. To the east, the Plaça Santa Jaume is built on the old roman court and still retains its role as the political centre of the city. You’ll also find here the town hall and the Palau de la Generalitat, the office of the Catalan government, sitting inside a magnificent gothic-style building which dates back to the Renaissance.
Other sights in the area that are worth a visit include the Salvador Dalà museum on the corner next to the Cathedral and also the Erotic Museum on Las Ramblas, well known as a hot spot for Stag Do’s and Hen Nights in Barcelona. The Gothic quarter due its location in the centre of Barcelona, makes it easy to discover the city’s heritage and sights without forgetting about the famous beaches. |
