Hotels in Catalonia, Spain

Catalonia, in northeastern Spain, boasts a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters-perfect for hitting Barcelona's beaches in July (85°F/29°C) or skiing in the Pyrenees near La Molina in January (45°F/7°C). It's famous for Antoni Gaudí's unfinished Sagrada Familia and the Costa Brava's coves, like those at Tossa de Mar. In spring, you can hike Montserrat's jagged peaks, while autumn offers wine harvest tours in the Penedès region, known for its cava production.
