Barcelona is a city brimming with art and architecture, and one of the most iconic names that echoes around every corner is that of Antoni Gaudí.

His modernist style, characterised by organic shapes and vibrant colours, has left an indelible mark on the city. By staying at one of our Princess hotels you’ll be perfectly placed to explore these architectural gems.

And the interior is no less exceptional, offering a perfect balance of light and space that makes you feel like you’re inside a living work of art. A few minutes from Casa Batlló you can also visit Casa Milà, known as ‘La Pedrera’, another spectacular Gaudí building that is known for its iconic roof of sculpture-like chimneys.
