Room Mate Pau sits on Fontanella, between Plaça Catalunya and the top of the Gothic Quarter. You are in the tourist hinge of the city, not in Gayxample. The walk to Eixample Esquerra is about ten minutes up Passeig de Gràcia or along Gran Via; the old city is even closer. First-timers like it because the airport bus, the trains, and the square are easy to find at 1am. If the whole trip is the Aribau grid, stay on Aribau. If you want Catalunya as a base and Gayxample as a walk, this is the simpler booking.
