When you choose your accommodation in any city in the world, and especially in European city, it is very important to make sure the location you pick is the right one for you. When I say location I don’t only mean the neighbourhood and the street but also the floor height, weather it is exterior on an interior apartment, weather it is the city’s business centre or the city’s touristic centre (which in many cities varies), etc. In Barcelona the touristic centre in quite easy to define – it is mainly the old city and all the area of Plaza Cataluya, which is considered as the central main square of the city.

The Eixample district is unique for its very well balanced mixture between commercial and residential character. That is why it is so popular among many business man who come to Barcelona for few days. They will normally prefer a nice holiday apartment in the Eixample, not too far from Plaza Catalonia or from the Diagonal Avenue and Paseo de Gracia area. However, many other business man wish to be in the very centre of the city and those who don’t mind the turmoil of the old quarter they will seek for accommodation in the gothic quarter of the old city and will make sure their holiday apartment in Barcelona is located in a tranquil area of the old city. Those who seek to be on the first line of the “action” will definitely choose an apartment on the Las Ramblas itself or very near the Ramblas, where the city vibrations are at their maximum.
