The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is 20kms north east of the city of Barcelona near Montmelo.

This track has hosted F1 since 1991 although today, the facilities are in need of an upgrade but the weather is normally good and the crowd enthusiastic.

Accommodation-wise there are some OK hotels around the track and in nearby Montmelo but for those looking for 4- and 5-star properties and a cosmopolitan social scene, stay in Barcelona it’s a wonderful city.

KYM'S TIP

Radisson Blu 1882 Hotel, Barcelona Sagrada Familia is one of my favourite hotels. It has one of the most comfortable and convivial lobby bars I’ve come across. The in-house restaurants are tastefully decorated, the rooms are good value, the staff joyful and you can save 5% on your booking with the hotel, simply call them directly on +34 933 478 486 and mention the promo code F1BARCELONA.

Oh, and you can see the Sagrada Familia from the rooftop swimming pool.

The Arts and the W Hotels are near the beach and are top notch although the W can be noisy in busy times; neither are cheap.

The city is full of colour and you should visit Sagrada Familia, Gaudi’s greatest work and La Rambla, the main pedestrian shopping street but beware of pickpockets and scammers.
