Situated in the bustling Raval district of Barcelona, Casa Camper is where M.E. Magazine would choose to rest our tapas-laden selves. Designed by Fernando Amat and Jordi Tio, this is a hotel with a difference. To start with, all rooms are separated by central corridors into a bedroom on one side and a living room on the other. Then there's the Tentepie (Spanish for snack) area on the first floor, where guests can help themselves to refresshments. With an eco-friendly water recycling system alongside all the mod cons of WiFi, plasma screens and interactive television, if there is anything to tempt us off the streets of Barcelona, this is it.
