Barcelona, Spain

Wake up to a satisfying buffet breakfast with hot and cold options, pastries, fresh fruit and continental favourites – ideal fuel before a day of sightseeing. The hotel’s contemporary breakfast room continues the clean, gallery styling found throughout the property.

Later in the day, drinks and light bites are typically available from the rooftop bar during the warmer months, so you can pair a cool beer, glass of cava or soft drink with those Eixample views. For main meals beyond breakfast, you’re spoilt for choice with local tapas bars, cafés and restaurants within easy walking distance – this is very much a dine-out neighbourhood.

The hotel’s compact rooftop pool is all about cooling off rather than clocking up laps. It’s a small outdoor plunge-style pool, edged by a terrace with sunbeds and seating – a welcome retreat after a full day exploring the city.

Facilities may vary by season and weather, and the rooftop is generally open in the warmer months. For proper beach time, Barceloneta’s broad sands and chiringuito bars are around 4.2km away and easy to reach by public transport or taxi.

Sercotel Amister Art Hotel leans into its boutique-city-break personality rather than full resort facilities. Expect:

• Small fitness area or access to basic fitness equipment (set-up may vary)
• Art exhibitions and original works integrated into the hotel design
• Lounge areas for relaxing with a drink or planning your day

There’s no full spa on site, but reception can usually recommend nearby wellness centres if you’re craving a massage or treatment during your stay. The focus here is on a stylish, comfortable base, with Barcelona itself providing the entertainment.
