The stylish Hotel Ciutat de Barcelona offers a great location in the buzzing El Born district, which is known for its trendy bars and cafes. The hotel is situated on a quieter street and provides fantastic people-watching from its romantic -- albeit tiny -- wrought iron Juliette balconies (make sure to request a front-facing room). On the ground floor, a contemporary lobby opens up to a popular Peruvian-Japanese fusion restaurant. Another highlight is the rooftop terrace, with its small outdoor pool and distant mountain views. Rooms have light wood floors, bright accent walls, and modern amenities -- but furnishings are starting to show a bit of wear and tear. Nice perks include free Wi-Fi and free bottled water.
