How to Get Here

Easy Airport Access

Barcelona Airport–El Prat (BCN) is the main airport for travellers arriving by plane in the city and the second-largest airport in Spain. It’s only a 15-minute drive from the centre of Barcelona, making the city an incredibly accessible place for those flying from abroad, as you can land in Spain and be checked into your hotel in less than an hour.

Girona-Costa Brava Airport and Reus International Airport can also be used to reach Barcelona, so there are plenty of options that make it an incredibly well-connected city to the rest of the world. 

Great Rail Connections

Air travel is perhaps the most convenient and time-efficient option for business or ‘bleisure’ travellers, but Barcelona is also a fantastic place to visit if you want to arrive by train. The city is connected to many other Spanish destinations by train, with effective transport infrastructure that makes it easy to get to Barcelona from almost anywhere else in the country.

If you’re already in Europe, this real network also makes it easy to travel by train to Barcelona from other nearby countries. Barcelona Sants is the city’s main railway station, serving as a hub for commuter, local and regional rail services as well as national and international arrivals and departures. The station is a less than 30-minute journey away from the city’s famous Gothic Quarter.
