This low-cost hotel is proof that sustainability can go hand in hand with affordability to offer eco-friendly accommodation to suit all budgets. The Hotel Andante is signed up to the Biosphere Responsible Tourism charter and follows a number of measures to reduce its impact on the environment, including using solar panels for energy and sourcing plant varieties that require minimal watering, as well as LED lighting to keep energy consumption down.

Although not technically located within the city of Barcelona, this pioneering eco-resort in Catalunya is close enough that it is definitely worth mentioning. The number of measures in place at Mas Salagros makes it easy to see why this hotel has earned the label of 100 per cent eco-friendly: from using locally produced bio-fuels to recycling rainwater, even the beds and mattresses have been made using natural materials and sustainably sourced wood. There’s even a farm onsite that provides some of the produce for the two in-house restaurants.
5. Hotel Neri

The Sixtytwo Hotel is committed to providing its guests with a menu of dishes prepared using KM0 products, meaning products that are produced within 100km (62mi) of the hotel itself. Given the richness of choice offered by Catalonian farms and wineries, there’s plenty to choose from.
