A dated sample from 2 Nov 2026 to 10 Nov 2026 (6 nights, 7 calendar days) for two adults sharing one room, on the ground only and excluding international airfare. The estimate is built from the sample's own itemised prices, each used in the unit it was recorded in: the room rate per room-night, food per person-day, and the airport trip as a fixed cost. The sample total itself is never multiplied out to another party size or trip length, and because each sample is a single dated observation the figure stands at that date's price level and does not model seasonal change.
Barcelona charges the Catalan tourist tax plus a €5 city surcharge per person per night, under the tariff in force from 1 April 2026: €7 in total at the sampled three-star, €8.40 at the four-star and €12 at the five-star. It is charged for the first seven nights of a stay only. Source: Agència Tributària de Catalunya — tourist stay tax tariffs (checked 2026-09-21).
