Renting an Apartment in Barcelona Back Hotel Rooms are too expensive and confining. Click to enlarge image As we planned our stay in Barcelona, we priced a few hotel rooms before looking at apartments.  What we discovered very quickly is that hotel rooms may include all the 'perks' but you can pay dearly for them. Click to enlarge image For just over half the price of a hotel room, we found a number of apartments that included two bedrooms, a kitchen, a private bath and more! We found a great place at VRBO that was located in the city and convenient to all the sites we wanted to see.  The places that were farther were easy to get to by way of the metro.

Click to enlarge image As a traveling family, security is a primary concern. The security at the apartment was very good.  There was a required key to get into the building stairway.  Also, the heavy door had three different locking systems for more security.  The balcony had a view of the city streets of Barcelona and Sagrada Familia in the distance, but all the windows locked tight as well.
