Car hire in Barcelona may be necessary however if you are on business or have special needs. Barcelona has an excellent metro system that will take you to most of the sights and parking spaces are limited in the centre. You will also find that the roads in Barcelona are often congested and rather hectic, making driving a most unpleasant experience in the city centre.

However hiring a car is a good idea if you're staying in a hotel that is not in the city centre and is not serviced by the metro system.

You could also consider Barcelona car hire rental if you're intending to leave Barcelona to see the surrounding area. e.g. Girona (ancient town north of the city), Penédes (wine region) or the Dalí museum (Figueres).

Barcelona car hire rental may also be advantageous if you want to drive along the coast to visit beach resorts other than the ones in Barcelona. If you don't want to hire a car, but still want to see these sights, you can catch one of the trains that run from Placa de Catalunya or Barcelona Sants station in Barcelona city centre.
