Although traffic in Barcelona has terrible traffic conditions, car hire in Barcelona may be necessary if you are on business or have special needs. Generally, the roads here are often congested making driving a most unpleasant experience in the city centre. Also, parking spaces are limited in the 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.

With a car rental in Barcelona, you can see the city's best attractions when and how you like. With your rental car in Barcelona, see the Picasso Museum and the fantastic architecture of Antonio Gaudi at the Sagrada Familia and the Parc Guell. 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.

Many of North America's biggest car-rental companies, like Avis, Hertz, and Budget, have offices in Spain. Although several Spanish car-rental companies exist, many people have to resolve billing irregularities and insurance claims, so you might want to stick with the U.S.-based rental firms. Note that, usually, prepaid rates do not include taxes, which will be collected at the rental kiosk itself. Be sure to ask explicitly what's included when you're quoted a rate.
