Find someplace to stay near Las Ramblas if you can. Mel scroosko scott mcgrory Post Count: 29 Msg: #3 36 weeks ago, April 7th 2009 | yeah buses leave for airport every 10 mins from lots of locations. as Mel said try and find somewhere close to las ramblas as this is where the hub of activity is and you can walk to the beach from it. las ramblas is the point of sale of most hostels/hotels so if it doesnt mention it then it is nowhere near it. we stayed in a place called the Kabul hostel which was pretty nice, clean and safe and was located well. im not sure if you want to stay in a hotel or a hostel though if you choose a hostel you cant go far wrong with the one i mentioned. | scott Frau Fraukje van Boheemen Post Count: 1 Msg: #4 34 weeks ago, April 20th 2009 | Hi Peter! | You could also opt for a rental apartment, it gives you more independence than a hotel and normally is a lot cheaper. They also offer airport transfers. <snip> might be a good option. Have a nice time in Barcelona!
