Fresh air in our BBB-Jardinets Guest House

Part of our philosophy is to be every day to improve the service we offer to our guest. Thanks to the opinion of our guests, we've renovated two rooms in our BBB-Jardinets Guest House:

Our triple room is now called "Sand Room". This light brown color, brings more peace an light to this spacius room. Designed to create a more relaxed atmosphere for relaxing after a bussy day in our city.



Our single room is now called "Blue Room". In this room we thought give it a more fresh and younger style adn we choose the blue and white colors. We hope you enjoy this change!

This impresive spectacle of light, water and music was created in 1929 for the second World Exposition that took place in Barcelona (the first took place in 1888). In the beginning people though of it as silly, but to the day of today it attracts many visitors!


At a pace of 2.600 litres per second and with 4760 light bulbs in many colors, the playing fountain leaves you speechless. The show takes place in front of the palace of Montjuich, near the Plaza España, and starts in the late afternoon. A splendid way to conclude a sunny day in Barcelona.
The time table:

October to May (winter) Friday and Saturday at 19:00, 19:30, 20:00 y 20:30hs
May to October (summer) From Thrusday to Sunday at 21:30, 22:00, 22:30, 23:00 and 23:30hs.

MACBA the best of our Contemporary Art



The history of the Museum Contemporary Art (MACBA) goes back to 1959 when art critic Alexandre Cirici Pellicer championed the idea of creating a museum of contemporary art in Barcelona.
The MACBA, designed by American architect Richard Meier, is clearly based on rationalism and alludes to the masters of modern architecture, particularly Le Corbusier.
The museum renews its expositions on a regular base and we recomend you to visit the expositions and at the same time explore the architecture of the museum itself.

During summer (from 24th June to 24th September) the MACBA is open the Thursday and Friday until midnight for a friendly price.
The MACBA museum is located in the "Raval" district, in the Plaça del Angels number 1. And the price for visit all the museum cost 7,50€


In the neighborhoud of the MACBA you'll find lots of bars, terraces and restaurants and it's the favorate playground of the skating comunity in Barcelona.

San Valentín and Snow in Barcelona



What a better combination than snow and valentines day! There is no doubt that a bit of snow makes the event more romantic than a typical rainy February day.
Although there was not much of it and in some places it stayed no more than 0,5 seconds, snow in Barcelona is a rarity and thus its a memorable moment. Maybe next year there will be more? Or should we all move Valentines day to the beginning of January?
We hope you have a hot Valentines day!
