Arrive in Barcelona, the capital of Spain’s stateless nation of Catalonia. The city bursts with art, architecture, and culture and is a great place to start your travels in Spain.

When you arrive, your private guide will be waiting to transfer you to your boutique hotel in the Eixample neighborhood, a perfect location for exploration. Once you’ve had a chance to settle in, head out on a private bike tour of the city.
Located on the same block as the La Pedrera building, the H10 Casa Mimosa is an ideal place to stay for your Barcelona exploration. Spacious rooms with modern décor complement the original elements of this 19th century Modernist building. There is a beautiful courtyard garden off the lobby bar full of Mediterranean greenery, such as a century-old palm tree, an impressive lime tree, and mimosas, the hotel's namesake.
