Uber in BCN
 
Tomorrow I’m staying at the Hilton diaganal Mar. I see Uber is at BCN but Uber X is quoting £44 whereas a regular taxi is at €30. Does this seem correct?

Well that depends on your departing point, is it the airport? El prat? if so, fixed rate from the T4 is 39€ :p

there is no T4 in BCN, only T1 (new terminal) and T2 (old one, mostly low cost and charter companies)

and as far as I know, the 39 eur is not a fixed rate, but the aproximate rate from the airport to most city center destinations and hotels (so not those in Diagonal Mar, which are much further away)

The T4 was a typo, my bad! :(

I translated this:

Tarifa fixa de 39,00€ que s'aplica als trajectes des de l'aeroport al Port de Barcelona i viceversa, i inclou tots els suplements.
Els taxis que no disposen de taxímetre adaptat per mostrar aquesta tarifa, portaran ben visible un adhesiu indicatiu amb la mateixa.

I guess that's where I got the wrong idea then. Though I went to BCN a couple of years before and there was an airport fixed rate as well, it may have changed then,

I know OP posted this many weeks ago, but for others in Spain looking for a taxi alternative, I have found Cabify to be good, though the drivers don't usually have the best English.
