Barcelona is a mix of fascinating architecture, wonderful art, mouth watering dining and active nightlife. To say there is something for everyone is not a cliché – it is the truth.

Hotels in Barcelona

Hotel options range from low-end pensions for the budget minded to world class five star luxury for the glamorous. An excellent middle choice is the Hotel Apsis Aranea (address: Consell de Cent 444, telephone: ((+34) 93 247-7474, Website:www.apsishotels.com). Opened only a few years ago, it is clean, comfortable, quiet and convenient.

Dining in Barcelona

After check-in, the first order of business should be the search for sangria and tapas (the traditional Spanish wine and delicious bar snacks). Tapas are an important part of the Spanish diet since bars serve them most of the day, but most restaurants do not serve dinner until quite late. The Sangria is important because it is wine with fresh fruit soaking in it and it tastes so good.

Sight-seeing in Barcelona

Of course, plan on seeing sights, too. If your visit is short, you’ll need to choose carefully from the hundreds of possibilities of interesting things to see and do. A good option is to use the double-decker sight seeing bus (called “Bus Touristic”) as transportation. With a two-day ticket, you can visit many of the most important sights of Barcelona. The ticket also includes discounts at restaurants, museums, and stores throughout the city.
