Destination: Barcelona
We're ready to host you in our home, Barcelona! We know you'll love it. Barcelona has everything:
Arriving in Barcelona
Barcelona has one main airport, Barcelona-El Prat (BCN). Barcelona is reasonably small, and a taxi to the center will only cost you around €30.
Where to Stay?
Barcelona is the 3rd top European city in terms of tourism. As such, there is a huge range of accommodation options, from top hotels such as the W hotel on the beach to the more student-friendly Airbnb options.
In terms of location, there are several districts in Barcelona. We recommend staying in the Eixample district, which is a great jumping-off point for IESE Spring Games beach and field locations, as well as being close to the main tourist attractions of the city.
