Train or aerobus from Barcelona to Holiday Inn Express C/Pallers Barcelona
by enquire
I will be arriving at Barcelona airport 19-30 hours on a Sunday evening.I had thought of getting the aerobus from the airport to Plaza Catalunya. Is there a bus which goes from Plaza Catalunya and stops very near the Holiday Inn Express on C/Pallers or would I be getting a taxi from Plaza Catalunya? Or, has anyone else another suggestion for public transport. Also, do the aerobuses run on Sundays as the timetable only gave Monday to Saturday.
Thanks in advance to any repliers.

The airport web site has some information about transport.
http://www.barcelona-airport.com/eng/transport_eng.htm
It gives the times for the Aerobús (A1). Aeropuerto-Plaza de Catalunya.
For Sunday it states:
Horario sábados, domingos y festivos: salidas aeropuerto, desde 6:30 hasta 24:00; salidas Plaza Catalunya, desde 6:00 hasta 23:15.
Frecuencia: cada 12-13 minutos.
Precio billete: 3,45 €.
So on Sunday (Domingo) it runs from 06.30 until 24.00
Cost €3,45

I am not local in Barcelona, but looking at the Map and seeing that this Holiday Inn is nearest to Metro station called : LLACUNA which is on LINE 4
you may wish to look at taking the nearest line 4 train to Plaza Catalunya which is at URQUINAONA only about 400 metres from the middle of Plaza Catalunya.
Have a look at Google Maps. Input the addresses etc. You can also find the location of the Metro stations.
This gives a map of the Metro. The LINE 4 is in YELLOW.

Puerto Lover's advice is good. I can confirm L4-Llacuna is the nearest metro station to Holiday Inn EXpress, but expect a 5/10-min walk from the station the the hotel.
If you want to avoid the metro, from Plaza Catalunya there is another option which will definitely take longer. You can catch bus nr. 7 on Gran Via avenue (corner Passeig de Gracia, look for Zara boutique building, face the mountain, then turn right). Ask the driver to let you know when you are near Diagonal Ave / Rambla Poblenou. Once you are in Rambla Poblenou look for a high, modern structure made of two buildings.
A metro/bus costs less than 1.5 Eur. A taxi might cost 10-12 Eur if you go the fast way (Gran Via avenue - Plaça Glories - Diagonal ave) and traffic is ok.

I can just add to the fellow forumers' advice that for the future, various journeys you can use the TMB route planner:

btw www.barcelona-airport.com is a bit out of date
(the Aerobus time-table has not changed for a long time , but the tickets are now: A1 - 5 euro , A2 - 4,25 one-way)
A :)

Thanks you for your help. As we won't be arriving in Barcelona city until about 20-30 hours I think a taxi seems the quickest way to the hotel even though it will cost more.By this time we will just want to get to our hotel. Will there be taxis parked around Plaza Catalunya?
Travel Tips for Barcelona
You must live in Barcelona for...
by Poldavo
You must live in Barcelona for some months. Barcelona is an arquitechtonical wonder, but its daylife is better! Don't forget the old harbor and the Marina, Tibidabo Panoramical Tower, Sagrada Familia Church, Picasso and Miro Museums, The 'Rambla' famous boulevard and the Passeig de Gracia Avenue, the shops, the Gothic District (Medieval). At night, get out at Aribau and Balmes streets (many discos and bars), at 'Port Olimpic' mini-discos, at Teatre Nacional de Catalunya (National Catalonian Theatre), at Teatre Grec (Greek Theatre), at hundred of cinemas, shows, nightlife places, etc... the night not stop until the next morning! It's my city. I travel very much, and I love more and more my city at time that I see more 'world'. But It's a subjective impression.
Walk along LAS RAMBLAS
by Sharrie
Walk along LAS RAMBLAS towards Port Vell. This is where everything is happening & very busy during the weekends. All kinds of stalls are here: newsstands, flower stalls (pictured), tarot readers, caged bird & cafes! Very interesting!
CCCB Exhibitions
by DPando
Barcelona Contemporany Culture Centre located closer to MACBA (other museum) offers regular exhibitions about everything ... hte most interesting i ve seen were about Borges, city of Fez in Morocco and obviously this one below about Sarajevo few timw ago before i went to visit this unfortunate city
DONT FORGET Sarajevo, 10 years after the siege
From November 1993 to March 1994, and later, in January 1995, a group of film-makers daily filmed two minutes in the lives of citizens under siege in a street in Sarajevo. These images, presented together for the first time, show the everyday experience of a war and the instinct for survival. In the form of the installation, every day presents a month of the siege, and the programme therefore changes daily.
The exhibition also includes the work of five photographers who turned the act of chronicling the siege into a manifesto of life and art: Gervasio Sánchez, Enric Martí, Santiago Lyon, Danilo Krstanovic and Damir Sagolj (some nationals, others foreign) show the bravery and independence of this testimony.
And, as a chronicle of contemporary reality, we can attend the trial of Slobodan Milosevic for crimes against humanity, a vital event in the history of Europe which was scandalously hushed up, once again announcing the dangers of forgetting and indifference.
