Those who wish to do some walking in Barcelona may need to bring comfortable walking shoes. The Ramblas is a 20 - 30 minute walk from the hotel. However, a walk into Barcelona city centre could prove picturesque - both Rambla de Catalunya and Passeig de Gràcia lead to the centre, at Plaça de Catalunya (the top of the Ramblas).
Passeig de Gràcia is a 15 minute walk from the hotel and is the home of two famous Gaudí buildings - Casa Batlló and La Pedrera. It is also a favourite amongst shopaholics - dotted with major stores such as Zara, Gucci and Prada.
