Paid
Covered
Open 24h
- Price notes
- Paid underground garage directly under Plaça de Catalunya — the single most central spot, but reviews are mixed-to-poor: a low overall rating, reports of theft from cars, and complaints about access and staff. Central convenience, but empty the car and weigh a safer garage.
- Walk to centre
- 1 min
Parking Saba Plaça Catalunya sits directly beneath Plaça de Catalunya, where the old town meets the Eixample — you genuinely cannot park more centrally. That convenience is the whole case for it, because the reviews are sobering: a low overall score, complaints that “access is not easy” and staff can be “rude,” and at least one alarming report of a hire car being “cleared out … a crime hotspot.” Reassuringly, other guests parked here with foreign plates and had no trouble at all. We include it because it is the obvious central garage and many will use it — but treat it like the other busy central car parks: take everything of value with you, and if your car will sit unattended, consider a guarded garage like Parking Diputació or APK2 Cèntric instead.
Good to know
- The most central garage — directly under Plaça de Catalunya.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Plaça de Catalunya car park safe?
It is the most central garage in Barcelona, but it has a low rating and at least one report of a car being broken into and emptied. Take everything of value with you, or use a guarded garage such as Parking Diputació if the car will be unattended.
Is it central?
It could not be more central — it is directly under Plaça de Catalunya, where the Gothic Quarter, the Ramblas and the Eixample all meet.
