SPAIN, Oct 21 — There is a large variety of short term rental Barcelona apartments available, both for visitors to Barcelona on vacation and to business persons attending exhibitions or conferences at one of the conference centers in Barcelona. However, why should these people opt for rented accommodation rather than simply book a hotel room? Here are several reasons, both for and against rental apartments as opposed to hotel accommodation.
Price is a major reason, and although an apartment may be more expensive for a single person than a hotel room, it will certainly save money for a party sharing. Many prefer an apartment irrespective of cost benefits, due to the convenience of being able to cook your own food when needed, and the privacy that they offer

here is a large variety of short term rental barcelona apartments available, both for visitors to Barcelona on vacation and to business persons attending exhibitions or conferences at one of the conference centers in Barcelona. However, why should these people opt for rented accommodation rather than simply book a hotel room? Here are several reasons, both for and against rental apartments as opposed to hotel accommodation.
Price is a major reason, and although an apartment may be more expensive for a single person than a hotel room, it will certainly save money for a party sharing. If you are visiting Barcelona for a long weekend or city break or perhaps for a shopping spree in Spain or even a vacation for a week or two, you can get a two-bedroom apartment in Las Ramblas or Nou Rambla (downtown Barcelona) for less than 35 euros each! Try getting a hotel room in Barcelona for less than 35 euros per night! Of course, you might think, a hotel offers you so many amenities, such as a laundry service, a bar, a restaurant, room service and daily cleaning of your room: even sometimes free tea and coffee making facilities. So what?
Short term rental Barcelona apartments provide a fully fitted kitchen with all the tools, cooking equipment and crockery required to cook a meal. You can wake up and smell the coffee from a real coffee maker. You have a dishwasher to help you, and a washing machine, so your laundry is free. You have a TV, DVD and CD player in most apartments, and also a Jacuzzi (in luxury ones) and a terrace in which to enjoy the Spanish sun. Cots and cribs for the children, bedding and towels are all provided in the price, and many have an internet connection. If you have your children with you, they can sleep in their own bedroom and you will know that they are safe, unlike if they had a separate hotel room. You would always be worried about what they are doing.
You can share everything as a family, and save money on food. How much is it going to cost eating in restaurants for just one week? You needn’t eat out all the time with short term rental Barcelona apartments, and in fact, you needn’t eat out at all: you can cook all your own meals if you wish, of course. That likely won’t suit business people, whose expenses will cover their meals, but for families on vacation it is a significant saving. It would also allow you to get the experience of living like a Catalan - visiting the markets and local shops to purchase your food. Then cooking it according to traditional local recipes - that’s the way to visit Spain, not as a traditional tourist living in sanitized hotels, with westernized food.
When checking the prices of Barcelona apartments, keep in mind that they change according to the number of people. An apartment costing 92 euros for one-two people could be 100 for three and 120 for four, and so on. The more people in party the more expensive the apartment becomes, but also the less expensive per person. There is also a lot more room in an apartment. Hotels are basically sleeping places, with lip service normally paid to the living space. Not so with short term rental Barcelona apartments.
You get plenty room: generous bedrooms, a proper lounge and a kitchen. These apartments are the same as others of the same design intended for private occupancy. Of course, there is more to decide between an apartment and hotel than just price, amenities and convenience, though they would be hard to find. You can’t determine the standard of an apartment from is rating, as you can using the star rating applied to hotels, but generally, the more spend the better you get.
There are few doubts that short term rental Barcelona apartments offer excellent value when compared to hotels, particularly for groups such as families or business trips. Many prefer an apartment irrespective of cost benefits, due to the convenience of being able to cook your own food when needed, and the privacy that they offer. An apartment is, after all, just like your own home in that respect.

‘We just came back from our yearly trip to Spain. This year we visited friends in Madrid and hopped over to Barcelona . Our friends in Madrid recommended an apartment not far from were they used to live on Paseo Joan de Borbon, in a very central area, close to las Ramblas and the beach. The location was great and not only because it was so conveniently located in relation to our friends. The apartment is close to the Santa Maria del Mar, the nice Borne shopping area with great boutique shops and also not far from Plaza cataluna: the centre of barcelona.
We were greeted by a hostess who showed us round the apartment and also gave us lots of useful information about Barcelona. We were also very charmed by the beautiful welcome pack which contained tea, coffee, nuts, cereal, wine etc.(they knew we were on a honey moon!) We felt very spoiled and very welcome. The price for two people was 80 euros per day, considering the size and the comfort of the apartment I would say was a bargain. The agency is www.pillowapartments.com. Hope this will help.’

‘Great article, apartments are a good alternative to hotels - especially for families, where the cost of eating out every night usually proves expensive. All depends on how much work you want to do on holiday of course!’
