A heated outdoor pool, a gym and a Sky Bar: the Hotel Ohla Eixample is a 5-star hotel on Carrer de Còrsega, in the Eixample, about a 15-minute walk from Passeig de Gràcia. It is a good fit if you want to swim all year without leaving the centre.
Location and getting around
The address is Carrer de Còrsega, 289 (08008). It is about a 15-minute walk to Casa Batlló, 25 to Plaça de Catalunya and 30 to the Sagrada Família. Park Güell is about 35 minutes on foot. The Gothic Quarter and La Rambla are more than half an hour away, and for Spotify Camp Nou (3.2 km) or the beach (3.5 km) the metro or a taxi is better.
