General Information
Though Barcelona is famous for the football and it is visited by many tourists who want to see a good football match (for additional information – Football in Barcelona and Football Vacation Hotels in Barcelona), there are just a few opportunities to spend your holiday with sport activities (actually, other Spanish cities are more ideal for this kind of vacation).
Since Barcelona does not focus on sport vacation activities, you cannot find too many sport vacation hotels in the city. Nevertheless, you can find some hotels equipped with such facilities as a fitness room, an Olympic swimming pool, a football pitch, a basketball court, a tennis court or many others. However, these are usually not situated in the city center. For instance, in the northern part of Eixample you can find several hotels with a fitness room or a swimming pool, but most of the sport vacation hotels are located in Gracia area and in the northern part of the city, near Park Güell (for additional information – Hotels near Eixample, Hotels near Gracia, Hotels near Park Güell and Hotels in Barcelona).
