Barcelona Vacation Rentals

More about Barcelona Vacation Rentals

Ask any seasoned traveler about their favorite European cities, and Barcelona is sure to come up. After all, the Catalonian capital features some of the most unique architecture in the world, due in no small part to the beautifully-imaginative work of renowned Modernist architect Antoni Gaudi, as well as to several sunny Mediterranean beaches, a number of wonderfully ornamented plazas, and an eclectic ambiance that stretches late into the night. In fact, the city's famous Rambla, which stretches across the Barri Gotic to El Raval (meaning it connects the Placa de Catalunya with the Colombus statue at Port Vell), will often see foot traffic at all hours, with families, groups and singles alike strolling and taking in the city's famed atmosphere. As such, Barcelona vacation rentals are available all around the city as a means of helping travelers better appreciate its one-of-a-kind culture.

Staying in Barcelona Vacation Rentals Instead of Hotels

Of course, given its international reputation for tourism and trade, a high number of hotels can be found all around Barcelona. However, because real estate is at such a high premium in this densely populated city, hotel rooms tend to be smaller. Like Paris vacation rentals, then, Barcelona vacation rentals are a popular alternative to the usual cramped hotel rooms, especially since an apartment with several bedrooms can usually be rented for a price similar to what you would pay for a single hotel room. And while they can be located anywhere, such as on the beach or by the Rambla, they can also be found in quiet, residential neighborhoods that offer travelers a glimpse into what life is truly like for the locals of this exciting city.

Transportation to Barcelona Vacation Rentals

Reaching Barcelona vacation rentals is often not too difficult, though the airport is a solid twenty minutes / half-hour away from the city centre, meaning if a shuttle or bus is available, travelers are advised to take it. While some may wish to rent a car to explore the Catalonian countryside, travelers looking to stay in Barcelona itself are not advised to do so, as much of the city, such as the Rambla and plazas, is pedestrian only. Also, the city is home to a clean and reliable metro system, and in any case the streets are very narrow, with parking being especially difficult. Besides, half the fun of visiting Barcelona is walking around and appreciating the architecture, history, food and shopping of the city, which is also why most of your time will be spent on foot.
