BARCELONA BOUND. ANY TIPS?

Hello friends, do you know that one of my new years resolutions will come true next week? My goal is to travel more often this year. Like every year. And as the hubby has it's birthday next week we will travel to Barcelona for a short break. Oh I'm looking forward to this city again. I know a lot of places but it's been 3 years now that I've visited this vibrant city. Do you know some awesome places in this Catalan city? Please share your tips with me!  It's always a pleasure to hear your experiences and secret places. Thanks so much!

Today I'm impressed by this Gothic Quarter Apartment located in the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona. I love the use of contemporary materials and modern furniture. Q WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Barcelona on a budget

Today it's time for a trip to Barcelona. Barcelona is one of my favourite cities in the world. Do you know why? Barcelona has the perfect mix: a metropole with a touch of sea, culture and a lot of Spanish vibes. And by the way Barcelona has some great design hotels under EUR 100. Together with my new sponsor Escapio and with the help of my Twitter friends I selected some of my favourites. Here is my top 5.

1. Hotel Praktik Rambla

2. Hotel Omm

3. BCN Apartments

4. ABAC Hotel & Restaurant

5. Hotel Vincci Maritimo

If you know any good Design hotels on a budget in Barcelona, please let me know and I will add them to this shortlist.

Thanks for sharing your ideas.
