Barcelona holidays are set to get more expensive for Brits from next year

Brits heading on Spain holidays this year will want to take note of a new tourism tax hike in Barcelona, as the popular hotspot looks to charge visitors more for overnight stays.

The move comes in a bid to focus on 'quality' rather than mass tourism.

Barcelona city council says it wants to bring in 53 million euros from its tourist tax in 2023 and is aiming for 100 million in 2024. In 2022, the income was 33.3 million so the objective is to triple this figure in just two years.
