Where to stay in Barcelona, Spain.
Barcelona doesn’t do boring. This is a city where you can chase sunlight through Gothic alleyways, sip vermouth by the hour, and stumble upon street performers so good you forget you had dinner plans. It’s bold, it’s beautiful, and it knows how to live well.
Whether you’re craving Gaudí views from your balcony or a cozy boutique spot tucked away in El Born, your hotel stay should feel like it belongs. We cut through the noise and filtered out the fluff.
These are the top 5 hotels travelers genuinely rave about.
Top 5 picks from the Foresyte community.
#5 Yurbban Ramblas
Shared by Keira Donovan – 1.9K ❤️
Built over the Puget Sound, this isn’t just waterfront — it’s water-under-foot. The Edgewater delivers rustic lodge vibes, complete with fireplaces, timber beams, and floor-to-ceiling views of the skyline or Olympic Mountains.
#4 Hotel El Palace
Shared by Jordan Stone – 683 ❤️
“Luxury, but make it regal. El Palace swept us off our feet with its marble floors, gilded mirrors, and rooftop garden that looked like something out of a Catalonian fairy tale. It was timeless, dramatic, and downright majestic. We were living our best royal lives.”
#3 Casa Camper
Shared by Wyatt Pearson – 694 ❤️
“Casa Camper was all comfort and character. Tucked in the Raval neighborhood, it gave us sleek, sustainable design with funky little quirks. The honor bar? Dangerous. The rooftop views? Chef’s kiss. It felt local, laid-back, and beautifully lowkey.”
#2 ME Barcelona
Shared by Paige Emerson – 739 ❤️
“Modern. Magnetic. ME brought the edge. Neon accents, rooftop pool parties, and that art-gallery-meets-nightclub lobby vibe. This was Barcelona’s cool older cousin—the one who knows where to find the best vermouth and never needs a map.”
#1 Antiga Casa Buenavista
Shared by Yasmine Fletcher – 813 ❤️
“This restored gem brought Barcelona’s soul into every corner. With mosaic tiles, local artwork, and a staff that felt more like friends, it gave warmth, history, and authenticity all wrapped into one stay. The definition of a hidden gem.”
