Sunborn Intl. wins contract
to set up a
ship-hotel in the Barcelona Port Fòrum
The Finnish company Sunborn International has won a contract
with Barcelona d' Infraestructures Municipals S.A. (BIMSA)
for a 25 years licence to locate a floating hotel in the
Barcelona’s new marina, the Port Fòrum.
The floating
hotel, branded as a Yacht Hotel, will be a specifically designed
for this location and will encompass
180 rooms. The Yacht Hotel will be moored beside the spectacular
photovoltaic pergola and further add to the maritime and
urban landscape of Barcelona. Similar to the company’s
existing purpose built Sunborn Yacht Hotels, the Barcelona
Yacht will be specifically built for hotel operations. The
vessel will be facing the new marina with private yachts.
The
Hotel will combine business and leisure. The location is
in proximity of the new marine zoo, parks, beaches, commercial
centres, cinemas, sailing and diving schools, ITER head-quarters,
several public institutions and the new Port Forum area shops.
A perfect location in a relaxed maritime atmosphere, surrounded
by luxury yachts, shops and restaurants, at one of the most
modern and exclusive Mediterranean ports.
The Port Fòrum location is just 10 minutes away from
downtown, 600ms away from the new international convention
centre of Barcelona and the Fòrum building which combined
are one of the largest convention centre of Southern Europe
(capacity: 15.000 pers.) In close proximity is also the new
business and leisure area at the beginning of the famous
Diagonal Avenue.
