Train
Renfe provides a wide range of trains directly from the airport to the city. In less than half an hour you will find yourself enjoying the culture of Barcelona. In just about 27 minutes, the train from Cercanías travels from the Airport to Passeig de Gràcia Station. In case your hotel is in a city surrounding Barcelona, check the map, there will probably be a train station that you can use just doing a simple train change in stations like Catalunya or Sants.
All the trains are designed to fit luggage, since this is its purpose, so do not worry about your luggage on the train.
Bus
There are many options if you want to take a bus from the Airport to the city. First of all, you can choose between two types of bus: the one that goes quickly into the city, or the one that goes through every town before Barcelona.
