Excellent hotel in all ways. We stayed for a night some years ago and were eager to return for longer. So glad we finally did. Especially as, this time, we were able to spend time on the roof by the lovely pool in the Catalan sun. And the in-house restaurant, Can Bo, was new to us and extraordinarily good. Very minor thing was that bathroom was great, just always a little shower spray spillage to mop up afterwards, despite our efforts to avoid this. But that’s nothing at all really when set against four very comfortable and luxurious days and nights.
