      Hi,

      to reach Barcelona, you will first need to reach Valencia city centre. You can do that easily by public transport (bus or metro).
      Once in Valencia, you can check buses for Barcelona. You can check all the information about departures and tickets here.

    What bus would I need from Valencia airport to for Senator Parque hotel.

    • Marija Štrljić   •  

      Hi Ann-Marie,

      you can take the metro or a combination of bus and metro. The best option is to take the metro line 3 (red line) from the airport to Angel Guimerá station. From there, you should transfer to metro line 1 (green line) which is heading towards Torrent Avinguda, and get off at the next stop, Turia. From there, you can easily walk to the Senator Parque Central Hotel.

      Best,
