Catalunya Deluxe A

The Catalunya Deluxe A apartment, like the "B" apartment in the same building, is located in a stylish, recently renovated building with nice wooden accents and floors. The location provides easy access to many of the city's major sites, like the Passeig de Gracia (a shopping street equated to New York's Fifth Avenue), the Plaza Catalunya, the Ramblas, and the historic Gothic Quarter.

The apartment itself is very spacious (130 m2/1400 sq. ft.), bright and sunny, with a gallery of windows and wooden floors throughout. The master bedroom offers two twins beds (that can be combined), an en suite bathroom with a shower. The second bedroom also has two twin beds that can be combined as well as a smaller 3rd bedroom with combinable twins. Each bedroom has a separate entrance. The large main living area has a TV, a large sofa and 2 arm chairs. The eat-in kitchen is large and well-equipped with all modern appliances including an oven, stovetop, toaster, kettle, microwave, dishwasher and enough seating for six people.

The apartment is very convenient to the metro, but it also offers plenty of restaurants, shops and sites to explore easily by foot. It has views of the Diputación Street and the Rambla de Catalunya, one of the most exclusive streets in the city.

Known as Barcelona's "new town," the Eixample (literally "expansion" in Catalan) neighborhood was built in the late 19th Century after the demolition of Barcelona's old city walls. The area, famous for its wide boulevards and egalitarian design, was borne of the idealism of Catalan engineer Ildefons Cerdà, who imagined a city where green space, mobility and natural lighting combated the ills of congestion and led to a more democratic city environment.

Today, L'Eixample remains an important example of urban planning, but has attracted tourists because of the many modernist buildings which grace its streets. Home to the Quadrat d'Or (Golden Triangle), La Pedrera, the Manzana de la Discordia and Sagrada Familia among many other famous modernist buildings, the neighborhood's main boulevard, the Passeig de Gràcia, is also the top shopping destination in the city. Unlike the old city below it, L'Eixample is surprisingly free of tourists and makes an ideal home base for UnTourists who can explore El Barri Gotic, El Raval, La Ribeira and the bohemian Gracia by foot from their neighborhood. L'Eixample also has excellent cafes and restaurants lining its streets.

All of our Barcelona UnTour apartments are managed by professional property management firms. Although there’s no on-site landlord, you can contact a member of their staff by phone should questions or problems arise. And your UnTours host is just a phone call away.
