Start the day with a varied buffet breakfast, served in the hotel’s bright restaurant. Expect a spread of hot and cold items – typically pastries, breads, fruit, cereals and cooked options – ideal before a morning of sightseeing.

Please note: a smart dress code may apply and facilities between seasons can vary. Reservations may be required and a supplement may be payable depending on your board basis. Details are based on the previous season and are subject to change.

Catalonia La Boqueria doesn’t have a pool – typical for a characterful, central Barcelona hotel – but Barceloneta Beach is only about 2.2km away. Stroll down through the old town to the waterfront or hop on the metro or bus for a faster trip to the sand, seaside bars and restaurants.

• Luggage storage – ideal if you have a late flight
• Lift access to all main floors
