The airport access road is the Barcelona-Castelledefels motorway C-31. The exit B-22 leads to the T1 and the C-32B leads to the T2. The 2 terminals are connected by a road. The C-31 motoway leads directly into the city on the Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes (popular Gran Via), the principal Avenue of Barcelona which runs the city from south to north, and it's quite easy to get to the centre. By the way, if you rent a car you will need a parking. Here you can reserve a park space.
The most simple and convenient option for visitors coming to Barcelona is a private shuttle service. It is not much more expensive than a taxi and they will wait for you with a sign with your name inside the terminal. Indicative prices:
You can also book transfers for larger groups.

Visiting Barcelona this week, Is the bus the best and cheapest way to get from the Airport to Hotel Ambit? How far of a walk is it to the hotel from where the bus drops you off? Also will the Bus allow Luggage on the bus?

Dear John,
The closest train station is Sants Estació (around 20 minutes by walk from the address you mentioned). Better for you would be to take the Aerobus to Gran Via - Urgell, only 5-10 minutes by walk.
We wish a happy stay in Barcelona!

Hi we will be arriving on monday 14th at Barcelona airport . Which is the best way for four of us to get to an apartment on Carrer de la Creu ?
Many thanks
Janet
Dear Janet,
We are sorry but the information is incomplete. There is a street call Creu Coberta, another Peu de la Creu and more..
Best regards.
I am visiting Barcelona on Wednesday 23rd September landing at El Prat Terminal 2 at 12:00 hours and planning to purchase T-10 Zone 1.
Can I travel to HOTEL ONIX LICEO on Carrer Nou de la Rambla using this ticket once only ?
Please provide details of all transfers in the journey.
Thanks.
Dear Visram,
With the T10 you can use the bus 46 and the train. You can only buy the T10 card at the airport train station, which is in the terminal T2. We recommend you to take the train to Sants Estació and in the same train station take the metro line L3 (the green one) Trinitat Nova direction to Drassanes station. From Drassanes station you can walk to your hotel. The T10 has 10 journeys and it is multipersonal. You can also consider the Hola BCN card which has unlimited journeys and the train ticket is also included. The Hola BCN is unipersonal.
Have a nice stay in Barcelona!
Thanks for your reply. Please confirm if it is possible to travel on R2 Nord from Airport to Sants Estacio and change to R1 or R4 to go to Catalunya station using T-10 only once.
Thanks.
Dear Visram,
That`s possible but it's better to take the metro (line L3) in Sants Estació to Plaça Catalunya due to the lower frecuency.
Best regards,
Suggestions on the best way to trave from the Airport to Hote Europark on Carrer D'Arago would be appreciated. Arriving weekday 5.30pm and wondering if I'd be hitting peak hour traffic making a taxi an expensive option?
Would also appreciate advice on what ticket to buy for travel around the city for 3 days.
Many thanks,
Dear Georgene,
You could buy a Hola BCN card for 3 days which includes the journey from the airport by train (only by train). Near your Hotel there is a train station (Passeid de Gràcia). Note that you should take the train in terminal T2. If you arrive in T1 there is free shuttle connecting both terminals. A taxi will cost you around 25-30 €.
Have a nice stray in Barcelona!

Is it possible to easily gain access to the station with luggage, 2 check in bags p,us another carry on, at Catalunya, change trains and make it out at the other end? Without help? Otherwise I will need to get the airport buss. Thanks so much.
Dear Belinda,
Don't take the train in Catalunya square, the Passeig de Gràcia station is not far and from there the train is direct to the airport. However, if you have a T10 1 zone you will need to buy the ticket.

Hi, I would like to know which is the best way to get to Lesseps from Airport El Prat. I arrive in Barcelona at 21, so I'd prefer to not use the first day of HolaBCN/Barcelona Card for that day? Is it cheaper to buy a single ticket or use the Card?
Thank You very much! Very helpful website!
Dear Simone,
Thank you for your comments. You can use the Hola BCN card for taking the train not the AEROBUS. The train station is on the terminal T2 (connected with the T1 by free bus). The Hola BCN 2 days costs 14,00 € and the AEROBUS 5,90 €, one way. To get Plaça Lesseps you should also take the metro, L3 (single ticket is 2,15 €) in Sants Estació or in Plaça Espanya (first bus stop). If you prefer to take the Aerobus you can also buy the T10 card in Barcelona (metro station) which have 10 journeys.
Have a great stay in Barcelona!

Dear Robert,

Hello, we are booked near the hospital clinic metro station i was wondering what kind of transport we are going to take from the airport to the apartment & we want to go to plaza espanya to go to montserrat right away. Then we are going to see other sights like sagrada familia & finally going to the cruise ship ports. We are in Barcelona for 2 days...Is it cheaper to buy a card like BCN transport card or the T10 card or just pay the normal rate everytime? I appreciate whatever information you can give me. Thank you.
Regards,
Abby
Dear Abegail,
To go to Hospital Clinic area you can take the bus AEROBUS to Gran Via / Urgell bus stop and from there you can walk to metro station HC. Concerning to the card, with a tourist transport Card like Hola BCN you have unlimeted journeys and the train to the airport is included (not Aerobus). If you use that card, the train station is at the terminal T2. You can go to Sants Estació and then take the L5 metro line at the same train station and go to Hospital Clinic station. The T10 card has 10 journeys (5 per person, then), so you have to calculated the amount of journeys you want to do. If you are 2 perons, then you need to Hola BCN (28,00 euros in total) and the T10 it costs 9,95 for 10 journeys. Aerobus 10,20 € per person (roun trip).
Have a nice stay in Barcelona!
hello, my plane is landing at 22.25 . is any buses traveling to la rambla over night? i would like to use t10 ticket
Dear Ramus,
Yes, there is the AEROBUS, you can find information on this page, on the top. The T10 card is not valid for this bus. You can also take the line 46, which will take you to Plaça Espanya or the line N17 (night bus working from 23:00 h but only in T1) to Ronda Universitat-Plaça Catalunya. On those buses you can use the T10 but the frequency and the journey is longer than the AEROBUS.
Have a nice stay in Barcelona!!
Hi, this is not the first time we are visiting barcelona but the last time we stayed right at ramblas. This time we are staying at acta mimic in ciutat vella and we have a lot more luggage than we did the last time. Though we know the aerobus runs from the airport to placa de catalunya, we are kind of clueless as to how to get from there to the hotel.
A family of 4 with large bags, walking the 400m distance doesnt seem like an option. Could someone tell us about the availability of cabs from the stop to the hotel, if we take the bus from the airport into the center.
Any other, preferably economical, suggestion of getting to the hotel is also welcome.
Dear Ankita,
If you are staying at the Acta Mimic Hotel you don't need to go to Plaça Catalunya, you can go to Plaça Espanya, the first bus stop in Barcelona. From there you can get the metro (next to the bus stop), line L3 to Paral.lel station (only 2 metro stations). You could also stop a taxi in Plaça Espanya, but if you have a lot of luggage maybe is not possible with only a taxi. Other option is to contract a transfer service from Barcelona airport, but you should book for 5 persons so you will get a mini van and then you will not have problems with the baggage.
We hope you have a nice stay in Barcelona!!
What is the best way to get to Hotel Balmoral from the airport. I'll be carrying a backpack and I do not want to take a taxi. First time in Barcelona! Please help
Hi Nicole,

Message: I will be coming to Barcelona for the first time, can any body guide me how to transfer from Treminal 1 air port to Senator Barcelona Spa Hotel which is at Cardenal Reig, 11, Les Korts, 08028 Barselona.
Dear Milenko,
Take the Aerobus at the airport and get off the bus at Plaça Espanya (first bus stop in Barcelona). Thne take the bus D20 (Ernest Lluch direction) in Creu Coberta street. This street and the bus stop is just on the left of the Hotel Catalonia Barcelona Plaza. Get off the D20 at the bus stop Collblanc-Cardenal Reig. You will be next to the hotel. Tip: In Plaça Espanya buy first a T10 card for the bus in a metro station or at the tourist office (next to the twin towers). You can also buy online the Hola BCN Card.
Hope the information is useful for you.
if im arriving at barcelona el prat at 11.40pm and im going to catalunya square. how far is that? what are the option? im looking at bus or taxi. how much will taxi cost . thank you
Hello PK, The best option is the AEROBUS. Will take you there in around 20-30 minutos. Plaça Catalunya is the last bus stop in Barcelona. A taxi will cost you around 25 euros. Have a nice stay!
I will be coming to Barcelona for the first time, can any body guide me how to transfer from Treminal 1 air port to Hotel Caledonian which is at Gran Via Corts Catalanes 574 ?
Dear Harshad Shah, It's very easy. Take the AEROBUS at the airport (see information on this page). The bus stop for your hotel is Universitat (it's the third one in Barcelona city). The hotel is just 2-3 minutes walk from the bus stop. We hope you have a nice stay in Barcelona!
From hotel Caledonian I have to go to
Halls 6&7, Fira de Barcelona - Gran Via
Av. Joan Carles I, 64
08908 L'Hospitalet de Llobregat
Barcelona, Spain
Pl suggest what are the options available to reach above exhibition hall.
If possible, I wanted to do one day city tour, is it possible?
Dear Harshad Shah, to get the exhibition center (Fira Barcelona Gran Via) from Hotel Caledonian take the bus L94 at Plaça Goya (it is very close to the hotel, ask there about directions). The bus stop for the Exhibition center is Amadeu Torner. Total time around 25 minutes.
We can arrange a city tour for you, but we would need more information. Do you want a private tour in a car with a driver? Do you also want an official guide? What language for the guide? For how many people? 4 hour or 8 hours? Please, answer those questions sending us an email to info@webarcelona.net then we will send you a budget.
Thanks a lot for your support..
Could you tell me how far this address is from the drop off point of the AeroBus at Plaza Catalunya? We think that we'll be able to walk to it in a decently short amount of time (no more than 15 minutes).
Thank you for your help.
Dear Kris,
You can walk to the address you mentioned. The AEROBUS bus stop is only 5 minutes from La Rambla 124.
We hope you have a nice stay in Barcelona.
How can I get carre Escorial 32 baixos from Barcelona airpot? Thank you very much.
Dear Mr Yoneyama, If you arrive to the T2 you could take the train to Passeig de Gràcia station. There you can take the metro L4, the green one (Trinitat Nova direction) to Joanic station. In Joanic station you can walk to the address you mention. Ariving at T2 or T1 (probably you will arrive at T1) you can take the AEROBUS to Plaça Catalunya (last bus stop). From there you can walk along Passeig de Gràcia to Passeig de Gràcia metro station (L4). All this is valid assuming you arrive at daytime. We hope this information is useful for you.
