Location
Before 1897 the quiet, upscale neighborhood of Sarrià was simply a small village outside of the city limits. Today, it is much larger, with a population of almost 150,000. However, it still maintains a local feel characterized by its narrow, quiet streets with many neighborhood parks. Throughout the area, you will find a plethora of shops and trendy cafés, in addition to some popular bakeries and fashionable restaurants. The nightlife in Sarrià is known to be lively, with many chic bars, clubs, and discotheques nearby. The neighborhood is considered to be one of the nicest and safest areas in Barcelona, and choosing an apartment in Sarrià gives you the perfect opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of the city center, while allowing you access to all of the main sightseeing hot-spots in the Catalan capital by metro, bus and tram.
