Hola Amigos!
Allow us to present you with a few recommendations about where to sleep, what to eat and do, when in one of the most amazing cities in the world – Barcelona.
Barcelona- It was fun, we will be back! With our friends- Ron & Talik
Let’s do it: Where to sleep?
"The One" hotel.
A luxury hotel, five stars GL (the highest level of hotels), so whoever wants to sleep there must take into account that it’s expensive but will meet all your expectations and even more.
The hotel itself is located near Barcelona's hottest street, "Passage de Garcia", which is the main shopping street in the city (you can read more about this street here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passeig_de_Gràcia,_Barcelona)
The rooms in the hotel are stunning, the shower is a dream, but also the facilities around: the hotel has an excellent restaurant on the roof, next to a luxurious boutique pool that overlooks all of Barcelona. The restaurant on the roof is open from 11:00 am to 11:00 pm (lunch is served between 13:00 and 15:30 and dinner from 20:00 to 22:30), and this is definitely a great option for those who are interested in spending a day by the pool with food and a bar nearby.

The perfect rooftop pool and view
What did we eat there? pay attention:
Fresh calamari, asparagus, kebab along with couscous and tasty chicken skewers. And of course, a delicious coffee with almond milk, just as we like it.
The obvious – the hotel has a gym and a ridiculous spa.
Where to eat? (Outside the hotel)
The hotel offers a huge breakfast with all kinds of croissants, omelets, fruits, vegetables and anything else you can imagine, but a breakfast like this will cost you 50 euros per person. Exaggerated, in our opinion at least.
So we went to eat in a restaurant 10 minutes away from the hotel. a restaurant that has no other way to be described except as a show! The concept is colorful and out of the box- Every dish you order will come out like a beauty queen: a super-colored, super-designed and super inviting. And of course, it tastes super delicious. We ordered two sandwiches (avocado bagel with omelet and salmon, and an omelet sandwich) + two coffees + green smoothies. We paid altogether 30 Euros – very fair.
You’ll be looking for a nice dinner too.
A half minute walk from the hotel you will find a wonderful restaurant (we returned to it a few times) designed with tons of style, and as for the food – very tasty and most importantly – pictures well:). The service was nice, the food arrived relatively quickly and everything we ordered was highly recommended: chicken tacos and salads for opening, chicken breast and a huge hamburger for a main course.
No meal is complete without our favorite dessert – chocolate soufflé. (All their amazing desserts are displayed in the shop window at the entrance, so it will be very easy to choose)
Inside the restaurant there is also a homeware shop that belongs to the same owners, so if you arrive there in the daytime, you will leave also with a gift for your friends.

And what about a little culture?
La Pedrera- Casa Mila
A minute's walk from the hotel, on the shopping street itself, is one of Gaudí's most important museums in Barcelona.
You cannot miss it from the outside because it is very unusual in the landscape, and it is very worthwhile to visit with the children because it has lots of attractions (its roof is a work of art and it is simply inspiring).
A bit of history (because Albert insists) – this is actually one of the last buildings Gaudi built for the Mila family and is also one of the leading tourist destinations in Barcelona.
After construction in 1912 the inhabitants of the city did not know how to describe what they saw in front of them and therefore they called it by it’s name: "La Pedrera" – "Quarry".
Here is another detail that Albert wants to emphasize: There is not even one straight wall in this place! And all that because Gaudi himself wanted to create a sense of waves! Do not miss it, really worth it.
There are day and night tours for those interested.

OK, before we say goodbye, another last recommendation:
Cava Group (THE BEST SERVICE EVER)
We Booked this trip when I (Albert) was in the middle of an architectural project and when I (Assi) was in the middle of filming the new season of "Ninja Israel". We flew out on Thursday morning, right after the end of Assi's night shots, and we returned on Sunday night when we were both going straight from the airport back to work.
As a result of the pressure from work, we could not organize anything for this trip – not a hotel, not flights, nor restaurants. So this time we used the amazing service of Cava Group.
This is a service of personal assistants who specialize in the LIFE style at the highest level that exists, everything you need they will fulfill for you if they haven’t already thought about everything before you.
Before the trip they will choose a hotel for you according to your needs, organize you a cool optional schedule and will give you recommendations on things you have not even thought of.
On the journey itself, they will organize a pampering vehicle that will take you from the house to the airport. When you arrive at the airport, you will receive a personal escort and shorter lines boarding the plane. When you arrive at the destination, a driver will wait for you to pick you up at the hotel.
And the best thing of all- u will have there a local that will take care of every problem, question and arrange for you any recreation that exceeds your spirit. Just text/ whatsapp him and its done!
You will not feel alone there for a moment.
This service made our trip convenient and fun on so many levels, it’s a must!

Dear friends- enjoy Barcelona!
Kisses on both sides,
Assi and Albert.
