Local businesses

Hotels, agencies and workspaces around the congress

Useful addresses for congress week, with the driving time to Gran Via and to the airport. We list them because they are useful, not because they pay us: no ratings, no commissions.

Plaça d’Europa and L’Hospitalet

Barcelona

Next to the airport

Castelldefels and Sitges

We have no commercial relationship with these businesses. Details checked on their websites on 26 October 2026; driving times without traffic (OSRM, OpenStreetMap).

Next to the venue

Plaça d’Europa and Gran Via de L’Hospitalet

The towers of Plaça d’Europa are about a kilometre from the South entrance. Hotels such as the Porta Fira, the SB Plaza Europa, the Renaissance Fira or the Hyatt Regency Barcelona Tower further along Gran Via are the first to fill up and the most expensive in congress week. From here you walk to the venue; a car is useful at night and to move material.

Gran Via de L’Hospitalet and Bellvitge, three kilometres away, are seven minutes by car without traffic and next to the L1 metro line.

In Barcelona

Plaça d’Espanya, Sants and the city centre

Plaça d’Espanya and Sants are between 7 and 10 minutes from Gran Via without traffic, and the city centre around Plaça de Catalunya about 12. It is the area most teams ask for: restaurants, client offices and the hotels you already know. The morning run is short on paper, but it shares the road with everyone else going to the venue at the same hour.

Diagonal Mar and the Fòrum, by the sea at the other end of the city, are about 20 minutes away via the Ronda Litoral.

Outside Barcelona

The coast, Badalona and Sant Cugat

When the city fills up, teams look to Castelldefels (20 minutes without traffic by the C-31), Sitges (33 minutes by the C-32 toll motorway), Badalona or Sant Cugat (about 26 minutes). A daily run in the same vehicle keeps the team together and on time.

Before you sign a hotel outside Barcelona, add the transport to the room price. The planner prices the whole week from your area so you can compare like with like.

Prices

What a room costs in congress week

A study by Simon-Kucher published by Hosteltur before the 2025 edition put the average hotel room in Barcelona at 553 € a night during the congress, more than four times the 136 € of the week before. Prices for 2027 are not published.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay for MWC?

If budget allows, Plaça d’Europa: you walk to the venue. If you need the city for meetings and dinners, Plaça d’Espanya, Sants or the centre, 7 to 12 minutes without traffic. If the city is full, Castelldefels or Sitges with a daily transfer.

How long does it take from Sitges to Fira Gran Via?

About 33 minutes without traffic (34 km by the C-32). For the opening we plan for around 80 minutes.

Do you have agreements with these hotels?

No. We list them because they are useful for congress week. We have no commercial relationship with any of them.

Can you pick up the team from several hotels?

Yes. Send us the hotels and the times and we plan the pickups as one schedule.

Would you rather talk to a person?

We answer 24 hours a day, every day, in English, Spanish, French and Catalan.
