Best Luxury Hotels In Barcelona
The coastal Catalonian destination is one of the most popular city breaks in the world. Whether combined with a more rural beach stay or as a standalone break, Barcelona offers much to do and see. The architecture of Antoni Gaudi (including the stunning Sagrada Familia cathedral) and the artworks of Dali, Miro and Picasso draw tourists, as does the Camp Nou football stadium, home of the formidable Barcelona FC.
