Sagrada Familia is Barcelona's defining monument and needs an itinerary that respects reservation timing and crowd pressure.
Park Guell adds space, views, and Gaudi context, but it works best when the hotel strategy acknowledges elevation and timing.
Casa Batllo is one of the best arguments for staying in Eixample if design and architecture drive the trip.
