Les Corts is a small district of Barcelona that, compared to other districts in Barcelona, is one of the most geographically limited. It has three different neighbourhoods, among which the one with the highest per capita income in Barcelona.
Les Corts comprises the area in which the largest number of universities are located, and extends from the outskirts of Tibidabo to the district of Sants-Montjuïc and l'Hospitalet de Llobregat. Les Corts is ideal for anyone who wants to rent a student flat next to universities, or for a luxury and exclusive rental property.
You can find spacious, elegant apartments with a communal area, usually equipped with a swimming pool, gym area and tennis court. You can also find large shopping centers, such as El Corte Inglés and La Illa Diagonal. Both can be found at the Avinguda Diagonal in Barcelona, the artery that crosses the Ciudad Condal and which is one of the most impressive avenues of the Catalan capital. Renting a flat in Barcelona is a great idea, and doing so in the district of Les Corts will be an unforgettable experience.
The district of Les Corts is one of the most exclusive districts in Barcelona. It is divided by three neighbourhoods with each quite different characteristics.
First there is the neighbourhood of Pedralbes, the most exclusive of all neighbourhoods in Barcelona, and where its inhabitants earn the highest income per capita in the Catalan capital.
If you decide to rent a flat in Pedralbes, you will find very spacious buildings with an average of 200 square meters, and you can enjoy all kinds of services: a doorman, a communal area with a gym, swimming pool, children's area and, in many cases, a tennis court. This neighbourhood extends from the border of Tibidabo to the Avinguda Diagonal.
Secondly, renting a flat in the neighbourhood of Les Corts is ideal for university students, who decide to pursue their higher education in Barcelona. Les Corts is also an interesting area for people who want to rent in a part of the city with many services and good connections, since the area of Pedralbes, for example, is more residential and has less public transport. In addition, Les Corts is slightly cheaper than Pedralbes.
Finally, you can also rent an apartment in the neighbourhood of La Maternitat i Sant Ramón, which borders the city of l'Hospitalet de Llobregat. This district is the most affordable in the whole district of Les Corts, more family oriented and also suitable for students, although it is a little further away from universities.
You can visit the commercial area of Avinguda Diagonal in the district of les Corts, which includes El Corte Ingles, La Illa, a very large shopping center that also houses restaurants and delicatessen, shops such as H&M, which has a large shop in this avenue, and not forgetting the elegant hotel offer in the area.
One of the soccer myths that all Barcelonians feel proud of is F.C. Barcelona, which has its temple in the district, Camp Nou. This football stadium is one of the most visited attractions in Barcelona. It is also interesting to see the Gothic style Monastery of Santa María de Pedralbes.
