About this stay

Casa Llum means house of light, and the name fits: tall windows, white walls and wooden shutters that fold back onto little iron balconies full of plants. The house sits on a lively but friendly street in El Born, with the basilica of Santa Maria del Mar at one end and the Ciutadella park at the other.

Downstairs there is a small café that doubles as reception, with an honesty bar in the evening. The team knows every tavern in the neighborhood and will happily book you a table where the locals eat.

Why we recommend it

It is the ideal base for a first visit: walkable to the old town, the beach and the park, and right next to the taverns on our tapas evening.

Questions

About our stays

What time are hotel check-in and check-out?

Check-in is usually from 14:00 or 15:00 and check-out until 11:00 or 12:00. Each hotel page lists its exact times, and we can request early check-in or late checkout for you.

Can the hotel keep our luggage before check-in?

Yes. All the hotels we work with store luggage for free before check-in and after checkout, so you can start exploring the moment you arrive.

Is the city tourist tax included?

No. Barcelona charges a tourist tax per person per night, which you pay at the hotel. The amount depends on the hotel’s category, and we include an estimate in your quote.

Can we request connecting or family rooms?

Yes. Let us know your group when you send your request and we will reserve family rooms, connecting rooms or cots where the hotel offers them.

Can I cancel or change a hotel booking?

Most stays can be changed or cancelled free of charge up to 14 days before arrival. Some hotels have stricter terms in high season, and your planner will confirm the exact policy before you pay a deposit.
