Hotel Praktik Bakery

The smell of bread from reception

Praktik Bakery is a small hotel on Carrer de Provença, in the Dreta de l'Eixample, between Passeig de Gràcia and Carrer de Pau Claris. What sets it apart is the artisan bakery on the ground floor, with specialty coffee, where the breakfast bread and pastries are baked. From the door you can walk to La Pedrera, Casa Batlló and, across the Diagonal, to the Vila de Gràcia.

The doubles are small, 12 m², with a rain shower, air conditioning, heating and a safe; the economy room faces an inner courtyard and the exterior one has light and views of the street or the park. For families there are six family rooms for four: two rooms joined by a corridor, with two bathrooms. There are no extra beds or minibar, and cots are free.

Oven-fresh breakfast and a door that never closes

The buffet breakfast is served every day from 7:30 to 10:30, with the house bread, cold meats, cheese, fruit, yoghurt and unlimited coffee; you can add it during your stay at the same price. Gluten-free only if you let them know beforehand. Reception is open 24 hours and the door never closes. Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00; if you book on its website, late check-out is free if there is space. Pets are not allowed, except assistance dogs. There is a laundry service every day except public holidays.

From the airport to the hotel

Diagonal metro (L3 and L5) is five minutes' walk, and Passeig de Gràcia seven. The hotel explains three ways to get here from the airport: the train to Passeig de Gràcia, the Aerobús to Plaça de Catalunya and then the L3 for two stops, or the L9 Sud with a change to the L5 at Collblanc. It has no car park of its own, but it has an arrangement with a car park on Carrer de Pau Claris.
