The area
Address
Neighbourhood: La Rambla
Barcelona's most famous street was once a dry riverbed. Now, La Rambla is a 1200-metre boulevard, and a major draw for visitors. During the day, La Rambla fills with pedestrians, some of which stroll past impressive human statues and artists while others take a break to people-watch while enjoying a drink at one of the many terraces. Housed here is the iconic Boqueria Market that offers one of the most varied and appetising selections of local produce and specialty meats and treats. While it’s important for tourists to keep an eye on their belongings at all times, this area is most safely explored in the daytime and is a must see for everyone who visits.

Loved walking this part of Barcelona during various times throughout the day and evening. When it gets too busy that's when I leave as that's when the pickpockets are harder to spot and unable to keep away from people as easy. It was nice to sit have a drink and people watch.

We love Barcelona especially Las Ramblas but this time it felt very dirty graffiti everywhere made the city feel like it has been forgotton no sign of street cleaners or any attempt to clean up
With all the bikes -scate boards- electric scooters and motor bikes walking can be a challenge
was very busy this week but no need to queue for anything
will return but not too soon

A good walk and easily accessible links the city center with beach front. Can be crowded and you must take care. A must do for sure.

It’s a great spot to visit to experience a part of the vibrant scene in Barcelona. Always packed with people with access to the mercat de La bouqueria, gothic quarter, plaça catalunya, various shopping options, numerous cafes and restaurants and the historic el born neighborhood. I would echo in being mindful of your belongings like in any crowded place anywhere in the world.

This is a very long street full of souvenirs and tourists, we walked it many times and one can see very different looking people here. We haven't seen any pickpockets but we are always very cautious anyway.

A spectacular avenue without a doubt, but care should be taken with the pickpockets , especially at times of great movement

Our hotel, Petite Palace Bouqueria Garden is located on the pedestrian street off of La Rambla. Is it possible to stop on La rambla street to unload our luggage and have my husband wait in the car while I check in at the hotel to drop our luggage?

En las Ramblas, abajo a la izquierda tienes el Amaya, un clásico que no defrauda. justo al lado, el Oluiva, moderno y barato. Subiendo a la derecha, en la calle Escudellers, a la derecha, los caracoles, otro clásico.
Subiendo a la izquierda, en la calle San Pabro,l el España, puro modernismo y buena comida,

My husband and 12 year old son and I will be visiting Barcelona this summer. We will stay 3 days before our cruise and 4 days after the cruise. For the first 3 days I’ve booked an apartment at Carrer Nou de la Rambla 53. After reading general reviews, I must say I’m a little nervous and I’m playing with the idea of cancelling this reservation. Could anyone shed some light on this area for me? I need to make a quick decision. Thank you.

If you are going to spend several days in Barcelona and you are not in a rush I would not stay in Las Ramblas. But it also depends on what you are looking for. Las Ramblas is a very visited place and noisy. You must go if you are in Barcelona but i would not stay there. At the end of the day you want to be able to relax and to have a nice dinner, you will not be able to do that in Las Ramblas. The metro in Barcelona works really well, so as long as you are near a metro stop you will be able to go anywhere. Thus you don’t need to be in a centric place. There is lots to do and see in Barcelona. If you decide to stay in Las Ramblas then stay on the other side of Las Ramblas street, in the Gothic Quarter. I would suggest that you look for places near the Arenas de Barcelona or near the Sant Station. The AC hotels would be a good choice if you want a hotel without spending too much money. Enjoy, Barcelona is a great city.

Just a 15 - 20 minute walk. I prefer the walk to the subway. It’s a nice subway, but not what I go to Barcelona to see.

We are arriving on Sunday, October 27th, on the Sky Princess. Most of Princess tours, and private tours are booked, and because it is Sunday, then most stores are closed. What suggestions do you have?

hi
it's depends with your pleasure activities.
It you like shopping I would not recommend Las rambles stores – tourist traps, high prices, poor quality
You have few malls and outlets at the city.
If you like to see sites and love architectures, I would recommend planning long days – or as much time you must visit:
La Familia Sagrada – min 2 hours + get tickets online and arrive near scheduled time
Casa Battelo + Casa Mila – 1-2 hours per location.
If you cannot walk or have the full tour – take the city bus and see the sites from outside
Hope you have great time!
