The Blau building in Poblenou

Poblenou

Live in one of Barcelona’s best neighbourhoods

Old factories turned into studios, cafés and green squares, a short walk from the sea. Quieter than the centre, closer to the beach, and full of life when class is over.

  • 25 min on foot to the beach
  • The Rambla del Poblenou
  • Cafés and brunch
  • Barcelona’s 22@ creative district

Time Out named Poblenou one of the coolest neighbourhoods in the world (2019).
