Barcelona cruise port is one of the major European seaports and a homeport in many Western Mediterranean cruise itineraries. Before setting sail to explore the azure waters of the Mediterranean, I highly recommend you come earlier and stay in Barcelona for a few days to fully enjoy the city.
From budget-friendly hotels to more luxurious ones, I made a list of the 15 best hotels near the port of Barcelona. Barcelona cruise terminal is located near the city center, within a 5-10-minute drive (depending on the traffic) from La Rambla and the Gothic Quarter, from where you can explore the city’s landmarks on foot.
The selected hotels are located within walking distance of these sights and a short driving distance from Barcelona cruise port.
Before choosing your hotel, I recommend you read my Ultimate Guide to Barcelona Cruise Port where I cover the port information and 10 best things to do in Barcelona.
