Looking to rent an apartment for the Spanish Grand Prix Formula 1 race? It’s the best way to enjoy one of the most exciting motorsport events of the year. Staying in a rental apartment in Barcelona offers you comfort, flexibility and the opportunity to immerse yourself in the city atmosphere as it fills with fans from all over the world.
The Spanish Grand Prix will be held from May 30th to June 1st at the famous Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, in Montmeló. The large influx of fans makes demand for accommodation skyrocket, so booking in advance is extremely important.
Today we’ll explain why renting an apartment is an excellent accommodation choice, give you tips to find the ideal apartment, and suggest the best neighborhoods to stay in during the event. Get ready for an adrenaline-filled weekend at the F1 Spanish Grand Prix!
Though hotels are the most traditional option, renting an apartment by the day in Barcelona gives you unique advantages that will make your stay even more comfortable and special.
1. More space and privacy
After a day full of excitement on the circuit, you'll want to kick back in comfort. In an apartment, you’ll have a living room at your disposal for relaxion, a kitchen where you can prepare meals to your liking, and private rooms for group or family members travelling with you.
2. Save on accommodation and meals
Hotel prices in Barcelona rise during Formula 1, while an apartment can be more economical, especially if you share expenses. Having a kitchen will also allow you to save on restaurant meals or prepare something quickly before going out to enjoy the event.
3. Total flexibility
You won't be limited by strict check-in or breakfast schedules. In an apartment, you organize your day according to your own schedule, which gives you more freedom to explore Barcelona.
Selecting the right accommodation is key to making the most of your experience in Barcelona during the F1 Spanish Grand Prix.
The demand for accommodation in Barcelona is extremely high during Formula 1, so it is best to secure your booking months in advance if you want to get the best prices and locations.
If you plan to attend an event at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, you’ll want to choose accommodation that facilitates your travel to the venue. Fortunately, the circuit is easy to get to from Barcelona, so you’ll be able to choose among several different locations for your apartment without making your travel more difficult.
To make the most of your time and avoid setbacks, we recommend looking for an apartment close to public transport, especially the R2 North line of Renfe. This train leads directly to Montmeló, the closest stop to the circuit.
A few of the best places to stay include:
The Fort Pienc neighborhood, located in the heart of Barcelona's Eixample district, is an ideal option for those looking to combine tourism with the excitement of the F1 Spanish Grand Prix. Its strategic location allows for quick access to the circuit, thanks to the direct buses run by Sagalés. These leave from the central bus station, the Estació Nord, during the days of the event.
As for accommodation, the Monumental Apartment stands out for comfort. This recently renovated, bright and fully equipped space will guarantee you a carefree stay. When you’re not at the racetrack, you can stroll down the charming Passeig de Sant Joan, enjoy a weekend brunch or walk through the center of Barcelona.
If you are looking for a quiet, well located and affordable area, El Clot is ideal. From the El Clot-Aragó train station, the R2 line takes you directly to Montmeló, where you can grab a cab or bus to the circuit.
Here you can stay in the Enamorats Apartment, a duplex with a spectacular terrace that’s perfect for relaxing with a glass of cava after a day of adrenaline. In addition, you’ll be close to the Sagrada Familia and the Hospital de Sant Pau, two of Barcelona’s architectural jewels.
If you're looking for a premium experience in Barcelona, staying near Passeig de Gràcia is unparalleled. This iconic avenue combines the luxury of exclusive boutiques with the architectural beauty of famous landmarks like La Pedrera and Casa Batlló.
City Center Barcelona is an excellent choice. It’s just a 15-minute walk from the Passeig de Gràcia train station, which connects directly to Montmeló. Plus, if you're traveling in a group, the same building has several additional apartments and a 24/7 customer service team.
And if you feel like enjoying a more local and bohemian atmosphere, the charming neighborhood of Gràcia is just a stone's throw away, offering you a unique experience full of lively squares, charming cafés and artisanal shops.
Choose an apartment that makes you feel at home. If you are traveling with friends or family, look for one with sufficient space, fast Wi-Fi, a well-equipped kitchen and, above all, air conditioning, which you’ll be thankful for in the Barcelona summer.
