Lonely Planet review

Half the city's population would like to live here. Mr Granados (1867-1916), a classical musician, probably wouldn't have minded either. The pedestrianised bottom end, at Carrer de la Diputació, is marked off by the gardens of the Universitat de Barcelona. The banter of diners can be heard at a couple of nearby restaurants as you wander between rows of elegant apartments to the leafy (but noisy) Plaça del Doctor Letamendi (C5).

From here on, one lane of traffic trickles down the rest of the street, along which are stationed more tempting eateries until you reach Avinguda Diagonal.
