Take a cultural city break in Barcelona to explore medieval Barri Gòtic,
indulge a love for moderniste (Catalan Art Deco) architecture in
L'Eixample or discover the young Picasso's art. Fuel your
appetite on Barcelona city breaks at tiled wine bars, tiny tapas bars and fine
seafood restaurants from Plaça de Catalunya to Barcelona's
port. And if your perfect Barcelona city break means shopping, make a beeline for
boutique-lined Passeig de Gràcia.
Dining and unwinding on Barcelona city breaks
Tantalise your taste buds on a Barcelona city break with seafood platters on the
waterfront at Port Olímpic. Choose from the line-up of tasty plates
in La Ribera's
tapas bars or celebrate your Barcelona city break with stylish dining in chic
L'Eixample. For a change from Catalan cuisine, dine on
good-value curries or noodles in Gràcia.
Special places to stay in Barcelona
Stay in the heart of the action on your Barcelona city break in the Ciutat
Villa (Old City) – try small family-owned hotels in Barri
Gòtic or gentrified El Born east of La Rambla. The choice is
more sophisticated in L'Eixample and Gràcia. Here,
boutique hotels boast stunning moderniste architecture and neighbourhood
cafés serve hot chocolate with churros pastries for breakfast on
your short city break to Barcelona.
Things to do on Barcelona city breaks
Start your Barcelona city break with the Cathedral's Gothic grandeur
and the inspiring art of the Picasso Museum. Tick off Antonio Gaudí
masterpieces such as La Sagrada Família and La Pedrera. Then
savour Barcelona's quirky Museum of Chocolate. If you're
into shopping, swan along elegant Passeig de Gràcia for designer
labels. Night owls can dive into bars in the Ciutat Vella or relax with a
drink in Gràcia's open squares. Join the party by the port
at Port Olímpic on your Barcelona city break.
