Review: Hotel Amister Barcelona
I was most impressed with this beautiful little hotel. Hotel Amister
Barcelona is housed inside a refurbished classical building on a
corner on Avenida Roma.
The road it is on isn’t the prettiest
but the hotel is on the edge of one of Barcelona’s prettiest
areas, Eixample, and the interior of the hotel will do wonders for
a relaxed and comfortable state of mind. It really is beautiful
and modern and so well thought-out, from the furniture to the lighting.
Hotel Facilities
The Hotel Amister Barcelona has an in house restaurant called Mezzanine,
and there is also a lovely funky-looking lobby bar where you can
sample a delicious range of cocktails. This area also has Wi-Fi.
There is no pool but there is a solarium if you want to top up your
tan. The hotel uses its walls to exhibit colorful, contemporary
work from Spanish artists. Also, children under the age of four
get to stay free. The hotel also has an ironing and laundry service.
Business Facilities
The Hotel Amister offers 3 rooms for any occasion. The rooms can
hold from 10 to 50 people and are equipped with the latest technology
(Wi-Fi, adsl). 2 have good natural light and all 3 have access for
the disabled. The largest room is 80 metres squared and all can
be changed by means of partition walls.
Rooms
There are 52 rooms in the Amister Hotel Barcelona. There are rooms
for non-smokers and for the disabled, and also there are some joined
by an inter-connecting door. All rooms are fitted with air-conditioning,
a safety box, Satellite TV, internet connection and desk. They have
been designed in a sparse and modern way but are classy and comfortable.
The Avenida Roma is not too busy, and the rooms are also soundproofed.
There is also a minibar in each room, and you get a paper everyday.
The hotel Amister Barcelona has one suite and several privilege
rooms which have a small lounge area with sofa.
