Excellent for families for short / medium stay
Our stay at Sensation Authentic Gràcia was fantastic! The apartment was perfect for our small family—clean, spacious, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The location in the charming Gràcia neighborhood was ideal, with plenty of cafés, shops, and parks nearby. It felt like a home away from home, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this place for families looking for a comfortable and authentic Barcelona experience

It provided a balcony overlooking a nice neighborhood. And we could see Sagrada Familia from upstairs terrace as well. Nice, quiet and safe, family neighborhood. We all love the pizza next door and tapas and sangria on the other side, just to mention it. Our experience was really good and most the information we needed was accessible.

The property is located in a lovely, quiet neighborhood and is conveniently close to the Sagrada Familia, making it a great base for exploring the city.
However, we encountered a significant issue with the hot water supply—it runs out after one person showers, requiring a 30–45 minute wait before the next person can have a hot shower. This was inconvenient, especially when trying to maximize time for sightseeing. Additionally, the living room rug was quite worn and could use replacing.
Overall, it's a pleasant place to stay, but it falls short of the standards expected from a 4-star property.

This property was best suited for our needs during our trip to Barcelona. This was very secure and easy access location. Only inconvenience was a single bathroom for 2 bedroom apartment. Communication with the apartment support staff whenever there was a need was really very easy and timely. Will definitely recommend.

Walkable and close to Sagrada Familia which had many restaurant options. We also did a 30 minute hike up to Park Guell. Not a great idea with kids but doable for adults. Apartment itself was clean and well maintained but would appreciate if lobby would smell a little nicer. Other than that, we had a great stay there and communication was excellent. Check in area was 5 min away but by car. Not advisable to check in and tow luggage with you all the way to the apartment unless you have a car waiting for you to check in and then be dropped off to the apartment itself. The apartment has a 24 hour grocery across from it that had yummy pizza options!

This property was in an excellent location, being close to a grocery store, the Sagrada Familia, and souvenir shops. It had good water pressure and maintained a good air temperature for sleeping. However, there was road noise and people laughing and talking during "sleep" hours. I would recommend using white noise or another phone setting that could reduce the outside noises. There is also a deposit fee not mentioned by Expedia that would have been helpful to be aware of for planning purposes.

Great Location and Comfortable Stat
We stayed at Sensation apartments Barcelona for 3 nights during our 14 day Spain trip. The apartment location was perfect, close to Sagrada Familia and walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The apartment was cozy and well equipped. We were 4 people 2 adults and 2 teenagers and it was wet comfortable stay with 1 doubled bed, 2 twins and a sofa bed. There is a parking station less then a min walk (across the street) with reasonable rate with in/out privilege.
The check-in was at a different location about 2-3 mins walk and the person at the check-in was very helpful and reception was accessible through WhatsApp chat through the stay.
The only comment / suggestion for management is that the twin beds were very short, my 16 year old had his legs hanging off the bed. Upgrade to a full length twin will much better.
Lastly I would recommend sensation apartments for anyone looking to stay in Barcelona and near Sagrada.

Handy for cathedral. good self catering
My husband & I checked in to the reception address with no problem and were offered the choice of walking 10 mins to the apartment block or a free taxi We chose taxi as had big luggage.
We booked the recommended transfer for our daughters who were coming by a later flight and put in the notes for them to drop them at the apartments & not check in venue, to make it easier for them late at night. But he wanted to take them to the check in venue & they had to argue it for a while and the driver said they dont read notes on bookings! so it would have been less stressful for them to have just got a taxi outside the terminal.
Aside from that, the 2 bedroom apartment was nicely furnished but slept 6 with comfy seating on one sofa only fitting 3 easily but not 4 of us really. Smart tv so we could watch our own netflix etc.
Lots of crockery & cutlery as there was 4 of us so we could use it & then put dishwasher on and have more to use if needed. washing machine but a small airer. washing clothes tablets and washing up liquid & dishwasher tablets was included. There is a kettle & nespresso coffee maker but no pods so best to bring your own tea/ coffee with you. Apartment was 10 mins from Sagrada Familia but 45 ish walk to Pl Cataluna. Lots of supermarkets around, but an Aldi was less than 5 mins down the road for everything you need. Lots of cafes/bakeries around. Restaurants seemed to be small inside and had more outside seating but a bit chilly in Feb. We found a few nice ones.

This was a GREAT place to stay! The location was tremendous, in a nice neighborhood and about 5-6 blocks from the Metro. The apartment itself was very nice, quiet, and offered great views from the balcony and the rooftop terrace. Check in was a breeze - we were greeted immediately and provided quick service. They arranged a (free) cab from check-in to the actual apartment, and also arranged for a cab to the airport on the back end of our stay. We would DEFINITELY stay here again!
