This was a great place to stay. It's in the heart of everything and a 10-15 minute walk to the Gothic District. The place is clean and very spacious. The host is awesome with communication and even arranged taxi service for us. Perfect place to explore the city.

Owner not great communicator, place is a little rough but unreal location
Thank You, Marcel! The location of this apartment is exceptional. The pictures are true and correct. The past reviews are accurate. No issues at the apartment, very secure, and clean. The Host was available if needed. I would rent the apartment again.
This is a large, modern apartment in a classic building. Despite being located on one of the main streets of Barcelona it is quiet. The property is professionally managed and the process is very efficient.
The metro if just across the pavement.
Despite being a little small the kitchen is adequate for a holiday stay and the washing machine and dryer are excellent. Well worth tje money.

Wonderful stay in theMiddle of Barcelona
A great property very roomy for 4 adults
Right in the heart of Eixample
Easy access to everything
The apartment was very quiet at night
There is construction next door so the jack hammers started at 8-9am
The only issue was that the internet was spotty and would kick us off line if more than two users were on line
FYI - Disney was the only consistent English speaking channel if important to you
The appliances and heat worked very well
Thank you Marcel for allowing us the use us your apartment

Dear Joe,
thank you for your kind feedback. I am very happy to know that you enjoyed your stay in Barcelona and in our apartment.
The building next to ours is getting renovated and at the moment they are doing demolition work which can be quite noisy. Luckily our apartment is located on the exact opposite side with many walls in between so that we still hear the work being done but not as loud as the apartments that share a wall with the neighbor building. In a week from now, they will be done with the noisy work.
The TV in the apartment only receives local Spanish Channels (about 50 channels), as advertised. But there is the possibility to switch to "original language" and watch documentaries or movies in English if this is the original language. My mistake for not having explained it to you.
It was a pleasure having you as guests in our apartment. I wish you and your family all the best and hope you will be back someday soon!
Kind regards,
Marcel
We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment! Marcel was a great host; we appreciated the excellent communication regarding our stay. The apartment is in a great location, just a short walk to Plaza Catalunya, Sagrada Familia, and Gran Via. The apartment was comfortable for our group of 7 (kids/teen, adults, grandparents), with enough room for everyone. The kitchen was a little small for our crew - but worked fine for us. We ended up eating most meals out anyway. The apartment was very secure. The concierge was great. Overall a great place - we would stay there again and would recommend it to others!
Excellent location, very clean and spacious with clear directions on how to use appliances and other amenities.
Although elevator is small everyone should use it. The marble stairs in the apartment complex are slippery and a family member fell. Be very careful going down these stairs. Other people in the complex told me they fell before too.
The host is outstanding! We stayed in 2 other Airbnb places in Spain and this homeaway rental was by far the best.

Thank you, Shawn for your kind feedback. I am glad you liked the apartment and the location.
I felt very sorry when I heard that one of your family members slipped and fell in the staircase of our building. The doorman called me immediately. Thankfully nothing serious happened. I agree that everyone should walk carefully; down the stairs; everywhere. But I also like to mention that this was the first time in all these years that one of our guests fell down the stairs. Even if a neighbor told you that he also fell at some point in the past, this is certainly not something that happens frequently. However, as you already mentioned, there is an elevator in the building which works perfectly fine.
It was a true pleasure dealing with you. I wish you and your family all the best and hope you all will be back someday soon.

Large, modern apartment in a classic, elegant building on an upscale boulevard.
The location is ideal: away from the noisy, crowded Barri Gotic, but less than two blocks from the Placa Catalunya, where all the action starts. An easy 15-20 minute walk to most attractions, probably 25-30 minutes to more distant ones such as La Sagrida Familia.
Great nearby shops and a supermarket, local cafes and tapas restaurants (we recommend Cachitos, just around the corner.).
Somewhat odd layout, although it didn't bother us: the "master" bedroom with two twin beds has the en suite bathroom. The other bathroom in the hall serves a second bedroom with a king-size bed, plus a third bedroom with one single bed. Then there is an enormous sofa bed in the living room. The plumbing and wiring and kitchen appliances are up-to-date, and there is central A/C, although it struggles a little during hot weather. Marcel, who manages these apartments, is a gem: fluent in several languages, helpful and articulate, and just a phone call away.

Dear Claiborne,
thank you for your kind feedback. Great to know that you and your family had a nice time in Barcelona. I am glad you took my suggestion and checked out the Chachitos tapas restaurant around the corner...certainly one of my favorits.
The layout of the rooms has bee chosen on purpose. The two large single beds would not fit comfortably into the second bedroom. Instead of having smaller single beds we chose simply to switch rooms and put them into the master bedroom. If guests wish, we can put them together and prepare them as a double bed. The double bed in the second bedroom is not a king-size as you mentioned in your review but a queen size (just to avoid confusion).
The new guests who arrived on your departure day called me on their first day saying that the AC is not cooling well. I had a technician checking it out who confirmed that the gas needed to be refilled. He did so and the AC is just working fine again. If you would have informed me during your stay we could have solved the issue a few days earlier.
It was a real pleasure meeting you all. I wish you all the best and hope you will be back someday soon.

Upscale, super clean, spacious, and great location
We would stay here again!.
I've used VRBO in Europe a half dozen times in the last two years with my wife and two teenage sons, this is by far the best we've rented.
All the other reviews are accurate. This is an upscale rental. Our driver could take us directly to the entrance where we were met at the door by the gracious host.
The apartment was immaculate, clean, bright, and very spacious. There was an excellent informational binder with recommendations. There's a small balcony to get a view of the wide streets below containing high-end stores. There was a washer AND dryer, very convenient for people who travel light. The apartment was just down the block from Gaudi's Casa Battlo and a mile from La Sagrada Familia. The popular areas of the city are all within easy walking distance. Around the corner is Rambla de Catalunya (not the La Rambla tourist trap) with great places to eat. One opportunity is to improve the wifi speed, but that's probably a function of the local provider.
Thank you for a great experience.

Dear Darren,
thank you for your kind review. I am very happy to know that you enjoyed your time in Barcelona and in our apartment. Thank you also for informing me about the WiFi speed. We have already contacted the provider and have now a stronger connection for better streaming.
It was a pleasure to meet you and your family. Hopefully you will be back someday soon.
All the best!

We felt so lucky to have been able to rent this place for our family spring break. We were a family of 5 with 3 older daughters. There are so many dining option and shopping options all around. We did not need to take any transportation because we could walk almost everywhere. The large grocery store in Cortes Ingles was 2 blocks away. The apartment was very nice. Marcel answered all my questions before and during our stay. We felt very safe. I will be recommending this place to all my friends that want to visit Barcelona.
The property was exactly as described, and Marcel was a flawless host. Even though he was out of town during our stay, communication was easy and quick, to ensure smooth check in and check out. His car service arrangements to/from the airport were perfect, and we also took advantage of his neighborhood restaurant recommendations. He even sends you videos showing you how to use the washer/dryer, keys, etc. The property is ideally located right on a Metro stop, but also walking distance to La Rambla and the Gothic Quarter. It was more than enough room for our family of 5, and we highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Barcelona.
Thank you Marcel!!
My husband, mother and law and 2 young kids stayed in this apartment and it was wonderful. Location is unbeatable, the doorman went above and beyond to help us and the apartment is spacious, clean, and very comfortable. They also provided a baby cot and high chair so we did not have to rent. Highly recommend.
The apartment was beautiful, the location ideal and Marcel was the perfect host.
The apartment is large, has all the amenities one could want or need for the stay and is located next door to the metro on one of Barcelona’s most beautiful boulevards. We are a family of four, with two grown up children, and it suited our needs perfectly
The entirety of our stay from booking to departure was faultless; I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marcel and the apartment to family, friends and colleagues and, indeed, already have.
And if we are ever lucky enough to return to Barcelona we would definitely try and book this apartment again.
Best location in Madrid. Easy to walk everywhere. The property was clean, had all the amenities needed. Marcel was easy to work with before, during , and upon checkout.
Very convenient location to access all the sites most of which we did by walking. Quiet and clean apartment with written instructions as to how to use the appliances and local services. Marcel the host is also very responsive to any queries and interested in ensuring your stay is enjoyable. We would recommend this location to others.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The property is perfectly located. Poor cleanliness, very dirty coach, linen and towels in a ver poor condition. Need to be replaced ASAP.
Apartment was spacious for our party of 5 and excellent location.-we walked to sightseeing, great restaurants and shops. Marcel was a fantastic help booking transfers for us and changing them at the last minute when our flights were changed due to french industrial action - would highly recommend.
Great location, lovely apartment, helpful and attentive manager.
The rooms are lovely and spacious, the beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are plentiful, the windows overlook a great view. There is onsite help for your questions. You're steps away from great shopping, eating, sightseeing spots. We will return to this apartment.
This spacious apartment is right in the center of everything. The Christmas lights were turned on while we were there and the street became magical. We were able to walk to almost everything we wanted to see (except Park Guell!).
Marcel is a very responsive host, and this 3 bedroom, 2 bath apartment was absolutely spotless.
We definitely recommend for your trip to Barcelona!
This was the perfect place for me, my husband and my parents to stay while in Barcelona. The metro was right out the door, the market was 2 blocks away, and plenty of restaurants and upscale shopping were right outside our door. The apartment has a concierge during the day and an elevator which was very important being that my father is disabled. It was also convenient to bring our luggage upstairs. Once inside, the apartment was a PERFECT accommodation with beautiful windows that looked out over the main street but still quiet enough to sleep comfortably. Marcel was fabulous in keeping in touch with us once we got closer to our destination from San Sebastian. He even arranged for our transportation to the airport on our way out. It was a five star experience which I would gladly stay here again and I will highly recommend this place for family and friends traveling to Barcelona (as well as anyone pondering this apartment while scouring through VRBO).

About the host
Hosted by Marcel
Hi, I am Marcel. I moved to Barcelona in the year 2002. On my first trip to Barcelona (which was in 2001), I fell in love with this wonderful city and I decided that I wanted to live here yes or yes. After that trip, I returned to Germany (where I am originally from), packed my bags, and made the move. No regrets so far. I started hosting guests short after my arrival in the city and until today I enjoy meeting people from all over the world and sharing this truly rich culture Barcelona has to offer.
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location. First-time visitors might not yet know that Paseo de Gracia is in Barcelona what in New York is the 5th Avenue, or in Berlin the Kurfürstendamm, or in Paris the Champs-Élysées. This apartment is located directly on Paseo de Gracia only 1,5 blocks from Plaza de Catalunia, which is the main square of the city. Most of the main attractions which travelers want to see are all located in this area. That means short walking distances from the apartment (I explain details in the apartment description). There are also so many good restaurants, cafés, and bars here. In my opinion, this is the best spot from where to stroll out in order to discover Barcelona, every day. I lived here myself for a few years and therefore know the area and the apartment inside out.
