Fodor's Expert Review Alemanys 5
Carrer Alemanys 5, Girona, Catalonia, 17004, Spain Fodor's Choice
Award-winning architect Anna Noguera and partner Juan-Manuel Ribera transformed a 16th-century house steps from the cathedral into two extraordinary apartments: one for up to five people, the other for six. Preserving the original stonework and exposed-beam ceilings, Noguera used modern materials to create spacious interiors that are luxuriously simple, open, and comfortable. The first-floor flat has a private garden with a plunge pool; the two-level flat above has a sunken bathtub, working fireplace, and a huge patio-dining deck with a view of the medieval city. Book well in advance: the minimum stay is between two and six nights, depending on the season, and many visitors take these gems for longer. Large groups can rent the whole house.
