Bathe in Barcelona

14th October 2008

People looking to indulge in a relaxing bath or treat themselves to a steam room session may be pleased to hear that after a revamp the Arab baths in Barcelona are now open once more.

The Aire de Barcelona offers a range of soothing experiences, from hot, warm and cold baths, to steam rooms, salt water baths, saunas and jacuzzis.

Guests can also enjoy the sounds of soothing music as they swim or relax on a hot marble bench with a glass of tea.

Located in the Spanish city's Bonne region, the baths are housed in a former warehouse, which was renovated by renowned architects Luis Alonso and Sergi Balaguer.

The baths are open daily from 10:00 local time to 02:00 the following morning, allowing plenty of time for indulgence.

Visitors to Barcelona may also enjoy seeing the city's sights on a guided tour.

Barcelona Tursime's latest newsletter notes that people can choose from a variety of walks, including a trip to the city's Gothic Quarter, on a Picasso Tour which involves a stroll around the famed artist's old haunts.

For food lovers there is also the Gourmet Tour which takes participants through the city's old town, taking in some restaurants and including a tasty sample or two.

A great opportunity for a break in Barcelona
