4-Star Hotels in Catalonia, Spain

Super hotel in a castle, clean, quiet Check-in is quick, the rooms are clean, parking is free, the views from the window are 5 out of 5. There is only one recommendation, make a fan in the bathroom with a switch, it is noisy at night

Location: The hotel is located near the train station, but getting there requires climbing a steep hill. It’s puzzling why the hotel doesn’t offer a shuttle bus to the station. On the bright side, the hotel faces the sea, offering stunning views. There’s also a sightseeing mini-train right downstairs, which costs €8 per person. It takes you around some of Tarragona’s main attractions, but it doesn’t stop along the way, nor is there any guided commentary. Service: The hotel staff were incredibly welcoming. They not only recommended excellent sightseeing routes but also some very delicious restaurants. Since we arrived early for check-in and our room wasn’t ready, they kindly offered us the option to use the gym facilities to change clothes if needed. Cleanness: Good. Facility: The mattress was terrible. Why do mattresses in Spanish local-brand hotels seem to always sag so much? Do they actually prefer that sinking feeling? Overall: Great value for money.

El servicio, ubicación, instalaciones son muy buenos!!! La cama es fantástica y las sábanas muy suaves. El aire acondicionado va genial !!!

The room was unexpectedly clean and there was no bad taste. The whole hotel in winter may have a few rooms with guests, but it is very quiet and comfortable. The hotel restaurant can also try traditional dishes. The room didn't even have a kettle and no water. I had to go to the bar to buy it. The bar can have tea and a little wine, super beautiful at sunset There are really no shops in the town in winter, and even a meal and a bread have to be eaten at lunch and dinner time. The only advantage is that you can take any photo and you can't see one.

We spent a weekend at Aiguablava Parador in Begur. We were a party of four people. The good points were the location, the rooms (comfortable beds, fabulous sea view, spacious rooms, nice amenities) the hotel is very spacious and tastefully decorated. The swimming pool, at the top end of the cliff, although not massive, is large enough and with fantastic views of the area. A very privileged position with views of Aiguablava cove and a private path down to the cove. Breakfast was varied and good quality in general and served in the breakfast room with gorgeous views. Freshly squeezed fruit juice and good quality coffee. The negatives were the check in experience, too long and with an inexperienced receptionist who lacked aptitude in the treatment of experienced travelers/customers and couldn’t get my name right. There was a general lack of coordination between departments (reception and restaurant) our evening meal reservation was not communicated to the restaurant either of the two days and my name was wrong in all departments from beginning to end even though the receptionist had access to my ID card and the online booking form. The evening meals were sub standard. Generally unpleasant food, tasteless fish and a dirty lukewarm brown sauce, packet custard-based deserts. Brick sized chunks of melon as fruit salad. Some dishes were inedible. A very limited wine list and very expensive wines. The service in the restaurant varied from pleasant to inappropriate with some comments from waiting staff demonstrating their inexperience and unsuitability to work in a hotel of this category, even though they were pleasant and kind at all times. On a final note, I requested by telephone if it would be possible to have some candles on a desert on our final evening as we were celebrating my husband’s 60th birthday. The receptionist said it would be no problem but it was not communicated to the restaurant and forgotten. As there had been so many hiccups with communication in general I didn’t bother to even try to remind them.

Hotel muy señorial, bonito, habitaciones y baño amplias. Piscina y Spa. Desayuno buffet muy completo y rico. Restaurante con menú, te dan la opción de que sí el día de salida, reservas un tratamiento o comida restaurante, te dejan la habitación hasta las 18,00. Una maravilla para poder aprovechar el día.

Hotel very close to the city center, perfect for visiting the museum. Excellent value for money.

Nice hotel in a small city. Very convenient as it’s just a stone throw away from the supermarket. 15 mins walk away to the old town where you can visit all the scene of Game of Thrones. Hotel reception is very friendly and welcoming. There’s also welcome cookies for hotel guests

Excepcional hotel. Desde el envolvente aroma de las zonas comunes hasta las instalaciones, la limpieza y el personal. El único aspecto a mejorar, en mi opinión, es el desayuno, que siendo de calidad y suficientemente variado, con los salados fríos creo que vendría bien un pequeño cambio y que se presentara del mismo modo que tienen con el resto del buffet. Nada, no obstante, para empañar la estancia. Gran por la fantástica estancia. Por cierto, recomiendo encarecidamente el menú degustación experiencia de mar en el restaurante del hotel.

The staff were very friendly, but they gave us a room with a shared door, and on the last night some rather annoying guests came in (screaming at the children, slamming doors, etc.). They were kind enough to change our room to one without a shared door. Even so, the building's general noise levels aren't well controlled; they are quite loud, especially when walking and in the bathrooms. Otherwise, the location is beautiful, and you can relax with gorgeous mountain views.
