Where to stay in la Vall d'Hebron
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
La Vall d'Hebron takes its name from the valley it fills on the edge of Barcelona, a calm residential quarter set apart from the tourist centre. Not many hotels sit in the valley. Those after a quiet base in the wider Catalan city, well back from its crowded central streets, settle happily in la Vall d'Hebron, out where the valley opens toward Catalunya.
The quarter stays low-key.
