Although Barcelona Sants Station is just a few kilometers from the main tourist area of Barcelona, you can still reach the centre using the Rodalies suburban commuter trains.
The Rodalies depart Barcelona Sants every 10 or 15 minutes. If you are heading to La Rambla or the Gothic Quarter, you can take the R12 to Catalyuna. Journey time is around 5 minutes.

Anyone staying in the Eixample district can take the R2 Sud to Passeig de la Gracia station. Travel time from Barcelona Sants is 6 minutes.

Anyone that can’t wait to view the city might consider the option of getting the bus from Barcelona Sants to the city centre. You can find several bus stops outside the train station, on both sides of the street. You can buy a single ticket for 2.40 euros or a 10-trip ticket for 11.35 euros at the vending machines or at some newsstands.
If La Rambla is your destination, you need to take the bus number 59 and get off at La Rambla – Pla de la Boqueria stop. To go to Placa Catalunya, you need to take the bus number V7 and get off at Placa Catalunya – Portal de l’Angel stop.

How to get fromBarcelona Sants Train Station to the Centre by Taxi
The most comfortable but also the most expensive way to get from Barcelona Sants to the centre is by taking a taxi. You can find a taxi rank outside the train station, on both sides of the street. You can also use apps like Free Now or Cabify to book a taxi in advance or on demand. Just like taking the bus, it will give you a chance to view the city of Barcelona as you travel to your accommodation. It also may be a safer option if you are arriving late at night, as the taxi will be able to take you to the entrance of your hotel.
The taxi fare depends on several factors, such as traffic, time of day and luggage. It usually ranges from 10 to 16 euros from Barcelona Sants to any of these destinations in the center.
The taxi ride takes about 10 minutes from Barcelona Sants to any of these destinations in the centre.
How long does it take to walk from Barcelona Sants to the centre of Barcelona?
If you are fit and energetic, then walking from Barcelona Sants train station to the centre of Barcelona would be a great chance to view the city. However, if you are arriving with heavy luggage, then walking to the city centre wouldn’t make sense. If you are arriving at Barcelona Sants and would like to walk to the city centre the walking time would be about 25–35 minutes. Based on my experience, arriving at Placa Catalyuna from Barcelona Sants would be around 25 minutes, and from Barcelona Sants to the Gothic Quarter would be close to 35 minutes.
The distance to La Rambla, Gothic Quarter or Placa Catalyuna from Barcelona Sants train station is around 2.5 kms (just over a mile and a half). A word of advice, the summer months can get very hot. It wouldn’t be wise to walk this distance during the midday heat of the hot summer months, and a bus or the metro would be a wiser option.
What to see and do in the centre of Barcelona
Once you arrive at the centre of Barcelona, you will be amazed by the variety of attractions and things to do in this vibrant area. Here we take a look at what to do when you arrive at the centre. Here are some of our recommendations:
La Rambla
La Rambla is one of the most famous and lively streets in Barcelona. It stretches for about 1.2 kilometers from Placa Catalunya to Port Vell, passing by several landmarks such as La Boqueria market, Gran Teatre del Liceu opera house, Palau de la Virreina cultural center and Plaça Reial square.
La Rambla is always full of people walking, shopping, eating or enjoying street performances. You can find many souvenir shops, cafes, restaurants and bars along this street, as well as where you can see a fountain that was once believed to have magical properties.

Placa Catalunya
Placa Catalunya is considered as the heart of Barcelona and one of its main squares. It is located at the end of La Rambla and connects with other important streets such as Passeig de Gracia, Rambla de Catalunya and Portal de l’Angel.
Placa Catalunya is a large and open space that hosts many events and celebrations throughout the year. It is also a popular meeting point for locals and tourists alike. You can find many fountains, statues, benches and pigeons in this square, as well as some shopping centers, department stores and hotels.
Placa Catalunya is also a good place to catch public transport to other parts of the city, as it has metro, bus and train stations nearby. Also, the fantastic El Corte Ingles department store is well worth a visit. If you are feeling hungry there is also a Hard Rock café.
Gothic quarter
The Gothic quarter is the oldest and most charming part of Barcelona. It is a maze of narrow and winding streets that reveal the history and culture of the city. It is here where you can find some of the most impressive Gothic buildings and monuments, such as the cathedral, the royal palace, the city hall, the basilica of Santa Maria del Mar or the church of Santa Maria del Pi.
The Gothic quarter is also full of hidden surprises, such as ancient Roman ruins, medieval courtyards, cozy cafes, quirky shops and lively bars. You can also discover some of the most interesting museums and cultural centers in this area, such as the Picasso museum or the Chocolate museum in the nearby El Born district.

Rome2rio.com website is incorrect in saying “the best way to get from Barcelona Sants Station to Barcelona is by train”. The best way to get from Barcelona Sants train station to the centre of Barcelona is by metro, as this website has stated. If you travel by metro you can reach most tourist areas within the city centre. Most metro stations will be a few minutes walk from wherever your hotel is. Of course, if you can afford it, a taxi is the best option. I agree with the information on your blog post, that by taking the metro from Sants station to the city centre is the quickest and cheapest way. Well done and a big thank you for providing the correct information.
I agree with you that the metro is the best way to get from Barcelona Sants train station to the city centre. Most visitors to Barcelona will find taking the metro from Barcelona Sants train station to the city centre easier to reach their hotel accommodation. Taxi is another great way to reach Barcelona centre if you have the budget. I wouldn’t recommend taking the bus unless you are familiar with where you are to going to get off. Another point is taking the metro gets you right into Barcelona city life. Always interesting people on the metro!
