The Torres brothers, the creative forces behind the establishment, were awarded their first Michelin star in 2010 just two years after the restaurant opened, suggesting you are in good hands here. The Melia Hotel itself is a stunning skyscraper designed by architect Dominique Perrault and is a striking landmark on the city skyline.

But trust us; if you are seeking some serious retail therapy, it\u2019s worth battling the crowds. The street itself is wide leafy boulevard which was once a promenade for the 19th century bourgeoisie of Barcelona. Whether you are hunting for a bargain at high street favourites Mango and Zara, or seeking out your latest luxury purchase from Stella McCartney, Prada or Louis Vuitton, the wide selection of stores is sure to delight. If you aren\u2019t into shopping, the street\u2019s amazing showcase of Catalonian modernist and art nouveau buildings will most definitely conjure up awe and amazement. Be sure to look around when you are walking along to spot the organic paving stones designed by Gaudi and streetlamps by Pere Falques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prestige tour of the Gran Teatre del Liceu<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A most popular opera house in Europe and a beautiful building, the Gran Teatre del Liceu has provided the stage for many of the most important works of classical music and the most greatest singers of the last two decades, including Domingo, Pavarotti, Callas and Tebaldi. Opened in 1847, the building was designed by architect Miquel Garriga i Roca and at the time was the largest opera house in Europe. Whilst the opera house has been ravaged by fires throughout its lifetime, it has been reconstructed to be much the way it was in 1847. Nowadays, we recommend booking in for a \u2018Prestige\u2019 tour of the building to truly appreciate its impressiveness. Start in the Renaissance-style lobby, before proceeding to the jaw-dropping auditorium which is an exact replica of the original hall. Tours also take in the Mirror Hall, once a gathering spot of the Catalan upper-middle classes, and the Cercle del Liceu, a British-style private club housing one of the finest Art Nouveau collections in Catalonia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n liceubarcelona.cat\/ca\/visites-prestige<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sunset Cruise with Nautica Port Barcelona<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Perhaps one of the best and most refreshing ways to see the city is by water. Spain has recently re-embraced its maritime past and nowhere more so than in Barcelona. We recommend heading to Port Ol\u00edmpic where Nautica Port Barcelona offer all sorts of water based fun! If you aren\u2019t too keen on hopping on a water-ski, hire out your own private sail boat for a cruise around the Barcelona coastline. They have a multitude of options from a small 10m sailboat costing 180 euros for a 1 hour cruise (including skipper), to a more luxurious 16m sailboat complete with bathrooms, cabins, a kitchen and space for 11 passengers, starting at 850 euros for the day (not including skipper).<\/p>\n\n\n\n nauticaportbarcelona.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n El Palace Barcelona<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The former Ritz Hotel Barcelona, El Palace Barcelona, is perhaps one of the most famous hotels in Barcelona attracting celebrities, prominent figures and guests from all over the world to indulge in a place that oozes timeless glamour.
