Accommodation near Barcelona Airport is a big business.

A lot of people travelling in and out of Barcelona require a hotel that is convenient and close to where they will be getting on or off a flight.

Barcelona Airport Terminal 2 (T2) is only a 20 – 25 minute taxi drive from the city centre and Terminal 1 (T1) is 30 – 35 minutes from the city centre. So it is worth remembering that you will have a far greater choice of accommodation if you head into the city centre. However, if your main concern is a close proximity to the airport, you will find a handful of business-orientated hotels that are within five to ten minutes drive of the airport terminals.

Remember that, although many of these hotels are close, they are not accessible by foot. They can only be reached by major roads that would be very dangerous for pedestrians. For this reason, most of the larger airport hotels provide shuttle services from Barcelona airport to the hotel and back. See below for more details.

Most of the hotels that are close to the airport are four stars rated. The cheaper hotels are generally located in the nearby town of El Prat – ten minutes drive from the airport.
