If you want to start planning your spring or summer vacations, Europe’s incredible cities are always a good choice, particularly stunning destinations in Spain like San Sebastian, the Balearic Islands and Tenerife in the Canary Islands.
Why San Sebastián? Simply because it’s one of Spain’s most charming cities, and even though it’s not particularly big, it’s packed with things to do and see and taste, so make your plans before you start exploring the city to make sure you experience all the wonders it has to offer.
This jewel of the Basque Country is one of the most charming and distinguished cities in Europe, mainly known for its beautiful coast on the Cantabrian Sea and the iconic architecture of the old town where you can admire the colors of the city.
Tourist attractions include: La Concha Beach, the Peine del Viento, Mount Urgull and Mount Igueldo, and the city’s many Michelin-starred restaurants.
Across the Kursaal Bridge is the Conference Center and Auditorium of the same name, famous as the main venue of the San Sebastián Film Festival.

A getaway to the Balearic Islands is always a good idea. But which island is best? Mallorca and Ibiza are highly recommended and two of the most popular destinations in the Mediterranean.
Their charm, perfect climate and spectacular ambience combine to create just the right destinations for total relaxation and maximum fun, the perfect formula for an exceptional vacation in the Balearic Islands.

If you’re feeling a bit more adventurous, feed your wanderlust with a trip to Porto, Berlin or Amsterdam, iconic cities with their own unique style, singular traditions and range of different activities.
Porto, in the north of Portugal, is one of those cities that has a special vibe, where romance is found around every corner; some even say that a sunset stroll along the river is enough to fall in love. Feel like discovering it?
Taking a pleasant stroll through the stunning streets to explore every corner of Porto is the best way to get to know the city and its main tourist attractions such as the Crystal Palace Gardens, a streetcar ride and tours of some of its most famous wineries.
Since Porto is a relatively small city you can visit it in a couple of days, taking advantage of the fact that you can stay at the Catalonia Porto, a charming hotel in the heart of the city with all the amenities.
Another great city with its own particular style is Berlin, the capital of Germany with a history and incalculable beauty that makes it home to a diverse range of tourist attractions. There are strategic stops you have to make on a trip to Berlina, including the majestic Alexanderplatz or Town Hall Square and the Television Tower located right next door, which in recent years has become one of the city’s major landmarks and the most famous pedestrian area of the capital.
Don’t forget the Potsmader Platz, today the city’s most modern metropolitan area, the Hackescher Platz, a popular shopping spot with an enviable atmosphere, and Unter den Linden, a major boulevard in Berlin lined with some of the most iconic buildings in the city, including the famous Brandenburg Gate, the mythical Castle Bridge, the New Guard building, the Humboldt University and the Catholic Cathedral of St. Hedwig.
The great thing is that you can stay at the Catalonia Berlin Mitte hotel, the best possible option because of its unbeatable location, perfect if you’re looking to enjoy a few days of sightseeing in the city.
Last but not least, we encourage you to visit the famous city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. It’s 60-plus miles of canals, more than 1,000 bridges and just as many houseboats have earned the city the nickname of “the Venice of the North”. Amsterdam is one of Europe’s most interesting and exciting cities as ell as the most prominent intellectual hub in the Netherlands.
This spectacular city is home to historical buildings like the Museumplein, a square home to three major museums: the Rijksmuseum (Dutch National Museum), the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum. You can also go on a bike ride or stroll down its narrow, canal-lined streets and shop in the old town, all with Amsterdam’s laid-back energy in the background.
You can stay at the Catalonia Vondel Amsterdam during your visit to this unique city; the hotel offers outstanding facilities from its strategic location in one of Amsterdam’s most famous areas for shopping and entertainment.
