Barcelona car rental experiences: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travellers who rented a car in Barcelona 
Verified travelerOct 2024
Book early to get the best price and parking is hard in Barcelona but worth it if you’ll be traveling outside the city
Verified travelerMar 2024
Just make sure to account for the Barcelona traffic in the morning, it was very hectic. Google maps was all over the place at times so have a back up navigation system. Also be ready to pay for tolls, a lot of them from BCN to south France.
Verified travelerMay 2024
Minivans are rare so if you need extra luggage etc book far ahead
Verified travelerJun 2023
Go slow and watch your mirrors. Make sure you know some of the basic rules of the road in Barcelona.

I would recommend renting earlier in the day.

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Barcelona

  • Looking to rent a car on your trip to Barcelona? The quickest and best way to see the capital of Spain’s Catalonia region is by car, rather than taking the city‘s complicated underground Metro. Barcelona is well connected with a good road network and highway that leads directly into the city, so you can access all the main attractions. In the very heart of the Gothic Quarter, Barcelona Cathedral has ample parking nearby, as does the Olympic Stadium, where there is plenty of free parking on the streets. Plus Telefonica tower, Botanic gardens, Palau Sant Jordi, and Fundacio Joan Miro are all in the area.
  • Barcelona has one main airport which is about 15 km outside of the city center. If you’re landing in Barcelona-El Prat Airport, you’ll find that the best car rental companies are based onsite at Terminal 1 on the ground floor near baggage claim, and at Terminal 2 at the main exit hall and near the customs offices. There are also some car rental companies that offer shuttle or pick-up services to off-site locations.
  • It’s important to remember that, while you’re enjoying the cityscape from the comfort of your rental car, city center driving is pretty intense. The changeable roadway system is packed with one-way streets and narrow alleys, so take care when navigating and maybe invest in renting a GPS to aid your journey.
  • When you visit Barcelona‘s city center, make sure to avoid driving during the busy rush hours of 8 am to 9:30 am and the evening rush hour between pm and 8:30 pm. At these times of day you must also watch out for the many tourists and pedestrians spilling onto the roads, as well as the bikes and motorbikes that take up part of the roads. You should particularly avoid driving down the narrow one-way roads that are either side of the central Ramblas Boulevard, the city’s busiest street.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Barcelona for ₹ 1,667 or less
  • Book your rental car in Barcelona at least 3 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Full-size rental cars in Barcelona are around 81% more expensive than other car types, on average

Give us the car we booked with an Automatic trans, full size and clean with gas in it. When we have trouble with a vandalism and are standing at your counter, actually call the service people yourself rather than pass it on to us. Finally, when you charge me 1500 euro for a flat tire, give me a break down of the expenses so I canfile insurance. Or, just do what you did and I’ll go to Sixt next time.

I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the service I received during my recent car rental attempt at Barcelona Airport. Despite having a confirmed reservation and providing all required details, including my credit card from Kosovo, I was informed upon arrival that Budget does not accept credit cards from my region. This refusal caused significant inconvenience and additional expenses, as I had to secure a rental from another company, GoldCar, at four times the original cost. Furthermore, at no point during the reservation process was I informed of this regional restriction, which I find unacceptable.

We booked an electric car and the cable provided in the car didn't work at any of the charging stations, so we were the whole time more concerned about running out of electricity than enjoying the trip.
