Hotel Majestic

Barcelona

Barcelona is undoubtedly one of Europe’s most original cities. The Catalonian capital has acquired a character all its own from its unique location between the Pyrenees Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. The city where painter Joan Miro was born is a work of art in itself thanks primarily to the works of the architect, Antoni Gaudi including his amazing Sagrada Familia (Holy Family) Cathedral and the charming Güell Park.

Barcelona is so diverse that taking just a few steps in any direction can result in a total change of atmosphere. This city on the sea possesses huge and popular beaches, a charming retro port and a dynamic new port just a few steps from the Olympic village built in 1992.

The very Mediterranean old city is a labyrinth of lively animated streets. The Barri Gotic is filled with Gothic churches and cobblestone streets. The journey in time continues in the Del Born quarter with its medieval buildings.

But Barcelona is above a city living in the present. On the legendary Ramblas, Barcelona’s most famous avenue, strollers mingle with the numerous street artists. The La Ribera quarter with its art galleries and boutiques eventually leads to the Picasso Museum.

The Passeig de Gracia is another quarter known for its luxury shops. At night, Barcelona puts on a different face with the festive ambiance for which it is also famous. Barcelona truly deserves its reputation as fascinating and varied city.
