A very clean, well-maintained hotel in a safe, upscale neighborhood with friendly staff.
Zenit Barcelona
$110-$190 / notte
Prenota se You want a quiet, upscale residential base in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi with easy access to Avinguda Diagonal, away from the tourist chaos.
Perché piace così tanto
- Immaculate daily housekeeping
- Modern, comfortable rooms with pillow menus
- Proximity to great local dining and Francesc Macià
In sintesi: It's a solid, clean business-style hotel, but thin walls and street noise mean light sleepers should pack earplugs.
Recensito da @remiricurt2371825: Walking through this lush forest with the guys early in the morning was unbelievable. Hearing the jungle wake up around us was pure magic. If you need to escape the city and just breathe, this trail is exactly what you need.
