Eleonora's apartment in Gràcia was absolutely perfect for the explorer-minded visitor. Full kitchen, bath, living room, bedroom and spectacular top floor patio gave us lots of room, comfort and a place to recharge after adventurous days in the city. Let Eleonora arrange a taxi to and from the airport (24hr notice) as the price is the same, but you can guarantee easy pickup and they know where the apartment is located. We had an early flight and were picked up promptly at 3:50am!

Situated on the Plaça del Nord in the village of Gràcia, the location was charming, with easy access to the subway, Park Guell, Sagrada Familia and a classics market, Mercator d'Abaceria. The narrow cobbled streets of Gràcia are filled with crafts, art and artisan food shops, as well as bodegas where you can enjoy "Vermut"-salty snacks, tapas and a glass of local vermouth on ice. Do this, it's wonderful! There are also lots of shops with Vernut picnic packages to enjoy on your patio. Once you've explored Gràcia, the rest of Barcelona awaits!
