The area surrounding the apartment:

The Matisse I apartment is located right in the middle of Barcelona city, making it accessible to all areas of interest in Barcelona such as the Gothic Quarter, Las Ramblas, El Borne and Plaça Catalunya. A short walk from the apartment you will find the superb food and produce market called La Boqueria on Las Ramblas, an absolute must for any visitor to Barcelona. The apartment offers a quiet reprive from the bustling and very busy Las Ramblas but it is a mere two to three minutes' walk to where the action is.

Walk out the front door of the apartment building and across the street and you will find yourself in the heart of the very trendy El Borne area, one of Barcelona's oldest neighbourhoods. It is an intricate maze of plaças and squares all interconnected by narrow, medieval streets. Here you will find lots of trendy boutiques and great bars, cafés and restaurants. Another option for the visitor staying at this fantastic Barcelona apartment is to visit the Gothic Quarter situated right in the heart of the old town. This is the area that fell within the medieval walls and that up until 150 years ago made up the entire city of Barcelona. The area is a body of interconnecting narrow cobble stoned streets where you can potter around for hours exploring the shops and restaurants.

As you can see, should you choose to stay at the Matisse I apartment during your visit to Barcelona, you will literally find yourself in the heart of Barcelona's Ciutat Vella.
