The apartment is located in the Old Town, exactly in the Born district, which is the trendiest area in town right now, with its charming squares, narrow streets, innovative restaurants, museums ( like Picasso Museum), art galleries and lively bars. The city of Barcelona is the 2nd largest city in Spain and Catalonia´s capital. It has a wealth of history as you can see on its architecture and is a very important city in Southern Europe because of its culture, economics, metropolitan feel, life style and key location as it has beach and mountain. Barcelona is worldwide famous for its narrow streets and charming squares in the Gothic Quarter, the coast line with several city beaches, its Modernist architecture (a particular form of Art Nouveau that took place here), its cosmopolitan feel and its laid back life style.

Beautiful apartment in city center

Sylvie G. Glasgow
Review Submitted: September 27, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Firstly, reality matched the description. Portal Nou apartment has got everything - as someone said, it was a home away from home. As it is also said by previous guests, the location is the main asset, being in walking distance to nearly all of the sights and the beach. The neighbourhood in itself is really nice, with little shops to buy anything you may need. It is in the Born area, where there are many good restaurants. Mr Carlos and his employee Guillermo are very friendly and professional and we found dealing with them extremely pleasant. Finally, I would recommend this apartment to all those who want to discover the Old Town of Barcelona, its beach and the Gaudi buildings in a pleasant and safe apartment.

Great experience in a lovely city

Nick Maddock London
Review Submitted: September 3, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This flat is centrally located and a home away from home. Looking out onto a typical street in the Old Town, immersed us in the experience while providing every modern luxury including a fully appointed kitchen, a comfortable and spacious livingroom and bedroom. We stayed in 4 different apartments while in different cities in Europe and this was by far the best, both in accommodation and the proffessionalism of all business transactions

Review Submitted: February 24, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
VERY CENTRAL TO ALL AMENITIES, LOVELY APARTMENT REALLY CLEAN. PLENTY OF DVD CHOICES IF REQUIRED. LOVELY OWNERS VERY HELPFUL, JUST BE WARNED UP 4 FLIGHTS OF STAIRS. TORRES RESTAURANT CLOSEBY VERY REASONABLY PRICED.
Recommended for:  Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Glad to learn you enjoyed the apartment and its surroundings. We were also glad to have you and your family stay in the apartment.
Only would like to specify that although the apartment is on the 3rd floor, buildings made on that time ( 150 years ago), what counts for you as first floor is of much less height than usually a floor is and in Spain they are not counted as a proper floor, but we call them " entresuelos" which means " between floors". So for us we would call it 3 and a bit!

Great apartment, fantastic location, all amenities included. very comfortable home. It exceeds all expectations with its generous array of household appliances and very clean interior. A rational organisation of space. In a beautiful position for going out and comfortably reaching most of the sights of the city on foot. The owner is very helpful and friendly
