Apartment Rental Guide
Holiday Apartments
(vacation rentals)
I am quite frankly amazed that many tourists never even consider staying in
a Barcelona apartment rental when the added benefits of privacy, self-catering
facilities, as well as possible lower rental fees, are significant
over staying in any other form of Barcelona accommodation. You will
also be able to find apartments in Barcelona locations that are difficult
or too expensive to find a hotel e.g. the beach area.
A holiday apartment
also offer you all the modern conveniences of home as well as being
quieter than a hotel not to mention adding a touch of real class
to your stay in Barcelona.
The good news for you is that not many other tourists think of
staying in a holiday apartment either so there are some real bargains
to be found!
The Barcelona hotel industry enjoys a 80 to 85% year round average
room occupancy. This high demand for hotel rooms has pushed up rates
significantly over the last few years with an average double room
costing around 130 - 200 Euros per night. Barcelona has precious
little development land left and for this reason the hotels can
afford to hike up the rates.
A Barcelona
Apartment rental is the solution
Not only are
you likely to save money staying at a holiday apartment but it can
also be easier to find available accommodation in a holiday flat
during the peak holiday seasons ( May to September) when most of
the hotel rooms are booked up.
When there
are more than 3 people in your group you will save even more as
the average apartment will cost less than the price of a double
room in a hotel. Often apartments have 2 or 3 additional pull-out
beds in the lounge area that will give you the option to have more
people in the flat.
The typical
rent for an apartment in Barcelona varies typically between 80 to
350 Euros per night for the whole apartment. The price you pay obviously
depends on several factors including the location, and quality of
the apartment and its desirability.
