Nettes Hotel abseits vom Zentrum

Das Hotel Ancora ist ein nettes kleines Hotel ganz in der Nähe vom Strand (bis zum nächsten Strand, Platja La Fosca, sind es 5 Gehminuten). Der Service ist sehr gut und alle Mitarbeiter sind äußerst freundlich. Wir hatten auch Frühstück und Abendessen gebucht und waren auch sehr zufrieden damit! Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und geräumig. Der einzige "Negativpunkt" unseres Aufenthaltes war, dass die Wände der Zimmer sehr sehr dünn sind und wir am Sonntagmorgen um 7 Uhr von den anderen Hotelgästen geweckt wurden. Für eine Nacht war das in Ordnung, aber mehr Nächte mit wenig Schlaf und viel Lärm könnte ich persönlich nicht ertragen. Alles in allem: sehr schön, aber mit Lärm.

Avkopplande område

Härligt avkopplande område. Varit flera gånger i Fusca under ca 20 år men nu har restaurangerna blivit sämre och det är dyrare överallt. Senast vi var där var för 5 år sedan. Vägarna i omgivningen har blivit mycket bättre och stranden i Fusca är bra men solstolar osv är jättedyra att hyra. Bra område att jogga och vandra i efter kusten.

Goede stop voor een autotrip.

Het hotel ligt op enige afstandvan het dorp en haven. We zijn er een dag geweest. Het haventje was leuk omdat er juist vissers waren die met hun vangst binnen kwamen. Verder was het oude dorp erg rustig. Blijkbaar nog geen seizoen voor de tourist.

Pres de la plage de la Fosca

Séjour d'une semaine. Hôtel orienté clientèle espagnole, donc globalement assez bruyant surtout le week end. Notre chambre N°105 donnait sur la rue et sur la terrasse de l hôtel où les personnes discutaient jusqu'à tard le soir. Le balcon ne préserve pas l'intimité de ceux qui s'y trouvent, les matériaux employés, parquet ds les chambres accroissent le niveaux sonore, l'isolation est faible tant au niveau des cloisons que des baies vitrées dont une ne fermait pas, pas de contre porte et fermeture bruyante. Les toilettes sont dans la salle de bain qui comportent une baignoire assez petite. Bonne restauration traditionnelle, service, choix, quantité et qualité, menu à 23€. Une autre adresse sur la plage que nous vous recommandons, le El Timon, avec un menu à 12,90€ avec un choix de poissons frais et de tapas et un service fort sympathique. A déconseiller en revanche le Can Pujol, c'est cher et pas bon.
