“An excellent hotel in a very charming ambience with a great restaurant too!”
“We found this to be a lovely, peaceful hotel. Not too far from Barcelona but with enough amenities to just stay in and around the local town for a few days. We had the pool to ourselves every time. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would come back.”
“It is an above average hotel. Breakfast buffet is not included in the hotel package (available for purchase) and its buffet has limited options. Rooms are clean; the toilet is divided with a tiny and partially painted wall glass which can cause some issues with privacy if you are travelling with a friend, family, or colleagues! Location of this hotel is awful as it is not only faraway from Barcelona city center; but also, the public transfer option is around 20 minutes walk! Cab ride is also limited to a local private taxi which costs around €40 to Las Ramblas (one way)”
