Hotel Icaria Barcelona
Whilst quite imposing from the outside Hotel Icaria Barcelona does
nothing to warn you of the sleek, contemporary design awaiting you
inside.
The red, silver and black colour scheme gives a sophisticated almost
quite oriental feel to the lobby, where the staff are helpful and
multi-lingual. The hotel from the outset well deserves its 4 star
rating.
The hotel also offers you an easy walk to both Barceloneta and
Icaria beaches which are only about 10 mins walk away.
Hotel Facilities
The lobby is large, and incorporates a café and if you walk
past the aquarium there is a red, modern piano bar. There is also
free, wireless internet in this and every public area of the hotel.
On the ground floor is the restaurant which also has a garden terrace.
The food is Mediterranean and there is a buffet breakfast available
for 14 euros.
The Icaria has an outdoor pool and sun terrace for the days you
can’t make it to the beach, and a small gym so you have no
excuse! If you’re not a gym person then relax and enjoy the
sauna and Turkish bath.
The reception staff are happy to help organize your sight-seeing,
book you into restaurants or onto tours.
Business facilities at Hotel Icaria Barcelona
The hotel Icaria Bacelona has 5 meeting rooms which you can hire,
along with specialist staff who will help organize your function.
You can also hire all equipment from computers to audiovisual gear,
and if this happens to break down, as they do, there is a maintenance
team on hand to help. If you would like there is also a multi-lingual
secretarial service available.
Rooms
The Hotel Icaria Barcelona has 180 rooms in total, including rooms
designed for the disabled. If you are at the hotel for business
then there are 24 business suites that have been adapted with Pcs,
printers and such to fit all business needs. There are also non-smoking
floors. The standard rooms are light and decorated in a classy manner.
They are equipped with all you would expect from a 4 star hotel:
Satellite TV, safe, 24 hour room service, air-conditioning.
Hotel Location and Facilities
The
hotel Icaria is located on the wide Avenida Icaria, about 5 minutes
walk from a large complex called Vila Icaria. Here you can go shopping,
have a bite to eat or watch a movie in the 15 screen cinema in English.
There is also a supermarket on the ground floor and a pharmacy
just outside. Surrounding the complex on every corner are banks
with cash points, which you will no doubt need if you are intending
on going shopping inside. If you find the breakfast a bit pricey,
walk round the corner from the hotel and there is a lovely bakery.
The
Metro stop, Ciutadella Villa Olympica is past the Vila complex,
a 10 minute walk away. At night you may want to do the 10 minute
walk to the Olympic village to sample the varied night-life on offer
there, and it's only 10 minutes to both Icaria beach or the marina area.
Or perhaps if you feel like a walk during the day then head left
down Avenida Icaria and you will wander into Poblenou where you
can see how real Barcelonans live and have a coffee in a little
Catalan café.
