Metro: Either Palau Reial or Zona Universitaria, both about the same walking distance. Both from L3.Bus: 7, 33, 54, 60, 67, 68, 74, 75, and 113. This document has a map of all the transport choices, which may be useful, but my recommendation is just to use metro.
Accommodation:
It is really urgent that you confirm your accommodation immediately, as Barcelona is still plenty of summer visitors and booking may be a problem later.We have agreed a block reservation of about 25 rooms at Bonanova Park (**), walking distance to the venue. Price is 81 Euros for single room and 92,5 Euros for double room/single usage (in both cases buffet breakfast and VAT included). Only a few single rooms available, so first-in, first-served. In order to facilitate the booking, the hotel has been informed about the group code "softwires", but my recommendation is that it will be much easier if you can just make your reservation by email to She can also assist in other traveling needs, tourist information, vacations packages, or even assist with your flight booking, etc. This map shows the hotel location and the path to the venue. Of course, you have many other choices if you prefer other rates or being in the historic center of the city, the expensive Olympic port, etc., Maria from Viajes Gram, can provide any required help on this as well. Some other choices often used for meetings at the same venue are (cited rates are not necessarily the correct ones at the time being, because we didn't make a block reservation on those hotels): Senator Barcelona (100 Euros+VAT) Catalonia Castellnou (104 Euros+VAT) NH Les Corts (108 Euros+VAT) Husa Arenas (123 Euros+VAT) NH Rallye (131 Euros+VAT) Hesperia Presidente (193 Euros, VAT included) Hesperia Sant Just (107 Euros, VAT included) St. Moritz (203 Euros, VAT included) Covadonga (153 Euros, VAT included)
