Client Site Visit to Barcelona – April 2011

THIS WAS A 4 DAY VISIT …

We visited a variety of venues suitable for meetings ranging from 20 VIPs, to lower budget 30 delegate, and a 100 delegate requirement.
Lots of walking was involved to see as many venues as possible, resulting in having to purchase a new pair of shoes – “costing twice as much as back in the UK!!!”

Hotels included:
* Hotel Arts Barcelona – a 5* modern skyscraper of 44 floors, situated almost on the beach.
* W Barcelona Hotel – modern funky hotel ideal for design companies or those looking for a trendy venue. It also offers views of the Mediterranean.
* Hotel Casa Fuster – a 5* ‘Leading Hotels of the World’ offers an an array of Suites including circular Suites overlooking leafy avenues –
“This hotel is one of my favorites based on the fact they have a rooftop gym and bar complete with plunge pool.”

For the more functional events we also saw:
Hotel Condes, Claris, Olivia Plaza, Barcelona Skipper Pullman, Majestic Hotel & Spa, ME Barcelona

We stayed at the Majestic which is one of the oldest hotels in the City but currently undergoing refurbishment.

Evenings we had the unenviable job of trying a variety of Restaurants!! Viewing nearly 20 different options – including some large Restaurants with Beach Terraces.
We also tried out a stunning restaurant in the hills overlooking the City, only a short drive away.
