Eixample translates as “extension”. This is because of the large area expanding to the city that benefits greatly from its ingenious urban planning at the hands of Catalan. This city is a home to the majority of Barcelona’s art nouveau masterpieces, high-class residential and shopping areas and on the right side of Eixample is the older, impressive architecture. Here’s our pick on the best Airbnbs in Barcelona’s Eixample district.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 05, 2024.
