The Eixample and Passeig de Gràcia for world-class shopping and architecture within walking distance; Barceloneta for sea views and pool terraces; the Gothic Quarter for a more historic, atmospheric setting.
Four to six months for spring, autumn and summer stays; up to nine to twelve months for the finer suites or if your trip coincides with a major event or trade fair.
Yes — many offer family rooms, extra beds, children's menus and even babysitting services. Some hotels apply age restrictions for spa and pool areas, so it is worth checking before you book.
