Location information for Barcelona

Barcelona has everything a classic European city is known for: incredible dining, outdoor markets, exciting shopping and cultural treasures. But this Mediterranean beauty also boasts wonderful beaches and a wealth of cutting-edge art and architecture. From its pedestrian-friendly old town to miles of beachfront boardwalk, there's no end to the activities in Barcelona.

Barcelona attractions

The Ciutat Vella is Barcelona's historic core, featuring top attractions like the tree-lined Las Rambla and the magical medieval lanes of Barri Gotic. Use the harbour cable car to soar from the sand to the top of Montjuic overlooking the city, while Modernist architecture like Gaudi's Sagrada Familia cathedral is found in the Eixample district.

Barcelona excursions

From the impressive Salvador Dali museum in Figueres to the lofty mountain monastery at Montserrat, there are plenty of daytrips possibilities outside the city with car hire in Barcelona. Soak in the nature of the UNESCO Montseny Biosphere Reserve or hang with the locals at Sitges Beach. Car rental in Barcelona can make it all happen.

Best time to visit

There's no bad time for a Barcelona visit, but July and August get painfully crowded with holidaymakers. Even the winter, which is the rainiest and coolest season, can be very pleasant. But the best time weather-wise is during the shoulder seasons between April and June or September and early November, when crowds are low and the mercury perfect.

Car rental in Barcelona

Barcelona's interior suffers from typical city traffic woes like congestion and elusive parking. Car hire in Barcelona is best used for excursions outside the city, where loads of attractions await. All the big rental names have offices in Barcelona, but to guarantee the lowest rental rates available, compare car hire prices online and make your reservation early.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is HireCars.co.uk the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
