Boutique Apartments 23 Barcelona
Adults-only apartments with a sun terrace in Gracia
About this hotel
Set in the Gracia district, this aparthotel keeps things quiet and adults-only, with a shared sun terrace as the one communal space above the street. Rooms are self-contained apartments rather than standard hotel rooms, each with a kitchenette, dining area, sofa and streaming services, so the terrace tends to double as a spot for morning coffee before a day spent walking toward Casa Batllo or Park Guell rather than a party venue. The lounge and business area downstairs give the property a functional, residential feel, closer to renting a well-placed flat than checking into a hotel lobby. Guests note the location scores especially well for couples, a detail that lines up with the adults-only setup and the quieter terrace above.

Our take
This suits couples or solo travelers who want an apartment-style base with a private terrace feel rather than a full-service hotel rooftop, and who value the adults-only quiet over a livelier shared pool scene. Guests wanting an on-site restaurant, bar or swimming pool should look toward the city's larger rooftop hotels instead, since the terrace here stays firmly in sun-lounger territory rather than dining or nightlife.
- ✓Book directly if a specific terrace-facing apartment matters, since layouts vary unit to unit in a converted residential building.
- ✓Use the kitchenette for breakfast before heading out early to Park Guell, since the terrace itself has no restaurant service.
- ✓Reserve well ahead in summer, since the adults-only sun terrace has limited space during the warmest, busiest weeks of the season.
