Feel Safe at AB Apartment Barcelona
General measures for your safety
We are pleased to present our Feel Safe at AB plan, a set of measures and actions designed so that you can stay in one of our apartments in Barcelona with total security and peace of mind. Thanks to all the measures implemented and to obtaining safety and sustainability certificates, you will be able to enjoy your stay with us to the fullest.
Medical assistance in the apartment
Your safety is our priority. That is why, together with Quirónsalud, we offer you a medical service for any need, available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. If you have a medical emergency, you can call 0034 901 123 456 and a team of multilingual professionals will arrange your home medical care, free of charge.
If you need to be transferred to hospital, Quirónsalud includes transfer by ambulance to the nearest hospital, as well as a hospital assistance service with an accompanying person that can speak your language, although in this case it will be necessary to have private medical insurance or travel insurance that can cover these expenses.
