If you follow my writing, you know I have a penchant for hotel bars. If you happen to share my passion, then this year don’t miss your chance to experience what’s happening behind the hotel bars in Barcelona from Sept 21 – 27.
Now, thanks to our guest today, Barcelona’s stepping into the spotlight again with more than 30 of its best great hotel bars teaming up for the second Barcelona Hotel Bar Week.
You might have heard the brains behind it all, Bianca Grisolia, last year when she introduced the event on Lush Life. If you missed it, let me introduce you to the one who thought it was high time Barcelona’s hotel bars got the spotlight they deserve.
Not only is she Founder and Organizer of Barcelona Hotel Bar Week, but a communication strategist, international PR expert, and founder of BG PR & Communication, an agency working globally with premium hospitality brands and venues
Bianca is a passionate advocate for the cultural value of hospitality and a driving force in building community and connections within the hospitality industry, plus she is my friend!
Today, she’s here to tell us how it all began and how this year is different.
In addition, we are lucky enough to have Bar Managers from four of the participating hotels. We have:
- Alberto Melis, Bar Manager, The Cotton House Hotel
- Marcos Miranda, F&B Manager, Hotel Kimpton Vividora
- Matteo Conte, Bar Manager, Grand Hotel Central
- Hugo Maciel, Bar Manager, Mandarin Oriental Barcelona
