Recommended in Barcelona
You're likely also seduced by the city of Barcelona, especially if you like to stroll in a leisurely manner through its streets and alleyways, avoiding crowded places and tourists in particular, to venture in a delicatessen style into those spots that, when you find them, seem as if they were waiting for you.
Hotels
Room Mate Pau
c/ de Fontanella, 7
08010 Barcelona
Tel.: 933 43 63 00
Right next to Plaza de Cataluña, which is like saying next to everything, you have this modern-style hotel, though without being over-the-top. Everything is very serene.
Indeed, it's worth highlighting how tranquil the rooms are, which also stand out for their careful decoration with details sprinkled around every corner. As you can imagine, the staff service is exceptional. What do you think of the entrance question?

Restaurants
Viana
c/ del Vidre, 7
08002 Barcelona
Tel.: 933 48 55 94
It's one of those places where you know you'll succeed. Order anything and you've won because everything is perfect. You can opt for the tasting menu and not have to worry about anything else.
The meats are a first choice, but if you have vegan inclinations, you'll be catered for as well. By the way, aside from Viana, there's its older brother, Gran Viana. Here we've introduced you to the little one.

Museums
New Barcelona Wax Museum
Passatge de la Banca, 7
08002 Barcelona
Tel.: 933 172 649
If you've already been to Madame Tussauds in London, now it's time to visit the Barcelona Wax Museum. You'll see incredible figures, up to our standards.
It has been recently renovated and is different from before, logically. You'll like the horror room, guaranteed. And to finish off, there's a café called El Bosc de les Fades, which, as you can guess, has its surprises.

Shops
Faborit Casa Amatller
Paseo De Gracia, 41
08007 Barcelona
Tel.: 934 67 36 43
We are right on Paseo de Gracia, next to Casa Batlló, what do you think about the location? Despite this, it's a bit hidden because it's inside the Casa Amatller Museum. But now you know.
You'll like the decoration, just like the hot chocolate, although it's equally appealing cold when we're in summer, right? Warning, it's usually crowded because, despite everything, it's where it is, and tourists end up finding it. You've been warned.
