Second time we stayed at this hotel, great staff, great service, nice breakfast, dinner, bar area etc. Fab location, in a beautiful area. The two single beds pushed together was a little annoying as a gap kept appearing but the bed was comfortable.

Super room with lovely balcony, extremely comfortable bed - I had the best nights sleep I've had in years! Bathroom facilities great too and coffee machine all added to our enjoyment of our one night stay. Location is perfect for access to the beach and beach front restaurants. The area is clean and well kept - at least in February, and we would visit again. Evening Food in restaurant was not really to our liking, but the service was superb and the Head Waiter very helpful. Self Service Breakfast was much better, offering a good selection including cook-your-own eggs and bacon - perfect.

Glorious Sant Pol

Booked this hotel because of other glowing reviews and was very pleased!! Sant Pol is without doubt the prettiest place we visited in Catalonia; beautiful sandy beach and spectacular cliffs and bays. We walked the coastal trail to Sant Feliu (about 2 hours including MANY photo stops). Spectacular! Rented a kayak on the beach to explore and snorkel in the many bays. The hotel was wonderful: great staff, good breakfast, great room, great value! We had a ground floor room with a cute patio. It was spacious and very clean; comfortable bed. I'd return in a minute!

Interesting location.

A very pleasant place to stay, very close to a pretty beach with interesting walks in both directions along the coast. The hotel provides a good base, it is comfortable, clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. The wi-fi is a bit erratic. The charge for the dog is 12 euros a night.
