City Walking Tours

Barcelona's secrets are revealed through a series of excellent walking tours, conducted both in Spanish and English, and led by the knowledgeable staff of Barcelona's Contemporary Culture Centre (CCCB). On Wednesdays and Saturdays, the dramatic architectural and social transformations of the old city are explored. On Thursdays and Sundays, ramblers can examine the wonders of Gaudï and Cerdà's master planning. Finally, on Tuesdays and Fridays, walkers can venture into the ultra-modern Olympic Village by the sea.

Harbour Plaza North Point

The latest chrome and glass addition to the empire of the grotesquely rich Li Ka-shing sits directly across the harbour from its sister hotel in Hung Hom. Of interest to locals and visitors, it is offering special deals to mark its opening, including discounts on rooms and food. Rates and discounts depend on the time of week and size of party booking.

Expect hip house from the man himself and an army of young glo-stick wielding and dummy-sucking youngsters going crazy on the dance floor.
