“Praktik Essens immerses you in a crafted sensory experience from its unique perfume theme to its modern, cozy design. I think the location is a prime advantage, placing you steps from Passeig de Gracia and Barcelona's vibrant heart; the in-house happy hour and comfortable rooms only add to the appeal. For travelers interested in culture and gastronomy, Praktik Essens appears to me a well-situated, family-friendly choice.”
