Why Stay Here?

The district of Les Corts obtains its borders from the most central and oldest part of the town that was there before it, which became part of Barcelona in 1897. During the day there are many people, but in the evening most of the people who are here leave after their work shifts, so the neighbourhood is very peaceful. It's a middle class neighbourhood in the upper and middle part of the city, so has many advantages when it comes to location.

If you're looking for a safe and residential part of the city to stay in, with public transport connections, or if you love football and want to be near the famous Camp Nou stadium, then take a look at our monthly rental apartments in this neighbourhood.
