Sant Pau Terraces Apartments are located just in front of the area of the largest ‘Modernista’ precinct in the world: that of the former hospital Sant Pau.
The terrace of one of our apartments we have for rent, offers a spectacular look over the buildings of this area while the other apartment has view towards the sea.
Just at the corner starts the Avinguda Gaudí, leading you straight to the Sagrada Família over a very nice Ramblas like street, filled with terraces and small shops.
Our apartments are very well connected with the public transport: several bus lines to beach, city centre and the Camp Nou stadion are close by as well as the stop of a metro line (L5, blue line).
Please find our map with several highlights here or click on the map symbol below.
Travelling to us
By Taxi (about 40 minutes travelling time) from Barcelona Airport (BCN)
At the airport you can find a taxi stand at the exits of each terminal.
The price of a trip to the apartment depends on the time of the day (day or night), the baggage and the necessary time it takes to travel from the airport to the address of your apartment.
Take into account that the trip costs more or less 45 Euro.
By Airport Bus and Underground from Barcelona Airport (BCN)
(a bit more than one hour travelling)
At the airport, take the airport bus. There are two buslines from the airport with a direct connection to the city. On both lines, big blue buses are being used. Line A1 begins its route from the new Terminal 1 and from Terminal 2 line A2 starts at building A and also stops at the building B and C.
Tickets for the trip to the city can be purchased at the ticket selling machines at the bus stop.
For information about the routes, timetables and fares: this is the website of the Aerobus.
The buses run every 10 minutes throughout the day and in about 45 minutes they bring you to the last stop, Plaça Catalunya, in the heart of the city.
Once arrived on Plaça Catalunya, from the bus stop you go in a southerly direction (with the department store ‘El Corte Inglés’ in your back), towards the other side of the square. Here you can take the underground, the green line, number3. Travel from here in the direction of TRINITAT NOVA. Get off at the stop DIAGONAL, where you change to the blue line. Travel in the direction of VALL D´HEBRON. Get off at the metro at the station SANT PAU / DOS DE MAIG. Once on the street, the building where the apartment is situated in, is about 2 minutes by foot.
By Metro (about an hour travelling time) from Barcelona Airport (BCN)
If you plan to buy a ‘ Hola Barcelona’ travelling card, (please find here a link , all public transport is included in this card) then you could consider taking the metro L9.
Change at station ‘Collblanc’ to the blue line L5 and get out at ‘ Sant Pau/Dos de Maig’ .
Get off at the metro at the station SANT PAU / DOS DE MAIG. Once on the street, the building where the apartment is situated in, is about 2 minutes by foot.
All in all, quite a good option.
