Why Barcelona works for family trips
Barcelona, Spain combines compact sightseeing with enough depth for a 5 days stay without feeling rushed. For vegan diners, the restaurant scene has matured quickly — you are no longer limited to side salads and vague "can you make it vegan?" conversations.
We weighted hotels toward locations you can reach on foot or a short metro ride, because nothing burns a 5 days trip faster than spending an hour each way in an Uber.
