cleanliness and convenience

The right hotel
The breakfasts and the views.
The room could have been cleaner.
8 Apr 2023
very nice but if they did renovations it would be excellent.
the location is spectacular. and the breakfast very good, too
the condition of the rooms/bathroom is a little too simple for the price
6 Apr 2023
Fine! Also for the dog.
The restaurant. A bit unsociable, but food was super good and not expensive.
Nothing really, a small downside was that you can see the sea from your room through the roofs of the apartments on the boulevard.

Disconnection looking at the sea
Excellent views, charming place...we will be back
I liked everything, no problem
19 Feb 2023
great little hotel
The views from the room and the rich buffet breakfast ☺️
At night we would have liked to have hot water instead of warm.
14 Feb 2023

Dinner
25 Jan 2023
Stop for a getaway to Sant Pol de Mar
Well heated room. Good buffet breakfast with a great sea view.
The upper floors are more pleasant (more unobstructed view, less of the street and cars). Despite its proximity, no direct access to the beach.

Spacious hotel overlooking the sea
Beautiful, spacious hotel, good location, parking lot at the hotel, room was large, spacious, balcony with a view of the sea, bathroom was handicapped accessible (don't know if all rooms are equipped like this) The breakfast was great 👍 especially the place with a view of the sea and the rising sun, terrific! Breakfast buffet everything was great, crispy baguette, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, fresh fruit, delicious sweet pastries, everything was included
The hotel was noisy, until it was quiet in the evening, it was about 1 hour at night, but maybe it was due to spirited guests?
14 Jan 2023
Good 3 star hotel. Perfect for us as travelers. We will be back.
Location, room size, breakfast good and plentiful.
Dinner in the restaurant was mediocre
5 Jan 2023
ideal for a short stay
charming and helpful staff
sea view but also on the nearby cars because room on the ground floor
15 Dec 2022
Quiet hotel outside the summer season
The good attention of all the staff.
I miss some space to read, chat with friends...
16 Nov 2022
Very good relaxing and relaxing weekend
Very pleasant sea view very good bedding very clean room welcoming staff and very good breakfast.
people who slam doors.
16 Nov 2022
excellent meal served by young people from the hotel school. Great time.
Exceptional sea view from the room
lacked a device to have hot water with tea or coffee. poorly soundproofed room.
12 Nov 2022
Really good
Basic breakfast but a bit of everything, very nice views, good size of the room, all have sea views, the higher the floor the better view you will have. Grateful to the people at the counter for their service
I understand that due to the date that it is we should be in autumn, but it does not seem fair to me that they block the a/c in the hotel, the room is hot at night, it was necessary to enter in the wee hours of the morning to be more comfortable, on the web it says a/c, if they had the correct information I would not have chosen the accommodation and if I did not call to ask I would not have found out, apart from the fact that the sun enters from the front and there is no way to keep the room cool.
9 Nov 2022
we recommend this hotel
quiet cleanliness attentive staff very good bedding
7 Nov 2022
Good but should be updated
Oceanfront. The restaurant area is very nice.
Very old rooms. Too much. You have to update.
5 Nov 2022
Perfect for a night out of summer season
Hearty, varied breakfast. Very pleasant to have lunch overlooking the sea. The quality of service and food at the application restaurant that is part of the hotel. The friendliness of the staff who make the effort to speak French.
The lack of soundproofing especially when your neighbors are very noisy and act as if the hotel belonged to them, whether during the day or at night. Too bad there is a building even low between the hotel and the sea which does not facilitate access to the beach. Why a bathtub? Bathroom a bit cramped
4 Nov 2022
Excellent location with good views
Very good location. 5 minutes from the town center Correct damping Very quiet on the sea and with incredible views
There is a bathtub not very comfortable facilities to improve!
4 Nov 2022
Hotel in disrepair…
Situation, staff
Old fashioned hotel
16 Oct 2022
Good hotel.
Location is good
The rooms are noisy.

We would book this hotel again anytime
The breakfast was very plentiful and everything was very clean.
23 Sep 2022
Good hotel
Everything was very right
They could update the rooms
8 Sep 2022
pleasant
tranquility
very simple room. old bathroom
30 Aug 2022
I would live there 2 months a year
Location, air conditioning, delicious breakfast.
The bathroom needs to be modernized, and the money should be put on the street and everything on the terrace.
29 Aug 2022
Good and calm
L. breakfast very good variety and good quality. Friendly staff
Stayed 1 night, I requested a room on the upper floor and a king-size bed could not be there yet, q x dates and in a short time to make the reservation is normal
29 Aug 2022
Typical hotel of the Costa Brava
The views from the room The sensors in the window to prevent misuse of the air conditioning.
Small details such as one of the cast toilet lights. A bit of "sheet metal and paint" would be nice, you can tell that the hotel has its years. There is no minibar in the room to be able to store a bottle of fresh water.
28 Aug 2022
Fantastic stay.
Large room with super comfortable beds. Nice view of the sea, a plus for the balcony. Fantastic breakfast with lots of fruit. We will be happy to come back.
27 Aug 2022
Great surprise
A good 3 star hotel with the necessary amenities for a relaxing holiday. Room with a view, comfortable bed, good restaurant service with excellent breakfast, swimming pool and free parking for customers. Polite, friendly and helpful staff.
Perhaps the furniture needs updating.
25 Aug 2022
in short satisfied
The location is great. Our paella was excellent. The breakfast is very extensive. This hotel with reception and service simply belongs to Spain.
If the furniture in the Spanish-style rooms is updated, then everything is ok. The menu could be expanded a bit.
24 Aug 2022
Relaxation
Well stocked lunch with very professional personal selection, well located hotel, everything within walking distance
Poor soundproofing of the room, especially if the neighbors are noisy
23 Aug 2022
An oasis of calm during the high season.
Tranquility, a bit cramped, pool and service quality, cleanliness. View from wonderful rooms. The menu and dishes are of a very high category and at a very good price. Service and attention are appreciated. Very familiar. We liked that we were allowed to finish our day on the last day, without being banned from the pool, which is not the case in other hotels. We will definitely return.
The lack of a gym and the fact that in some rooms the air conditioning was not up to date. If you have just arrived and there is a problem, you are somewhat disappointed, but the front desk has corrected this very carefully. I also did not like that the bedside tables on the third day of my stay in the room were taken away and replaced with others of lower quality without warning me in advance, since I found my things on the bed, which made me very upset. a little .
18 Aug 2022
cozy and relaxing stay
the friendliness of the staff and the tranquility of the premises
14 Aug 2022
Tranquility, friendliness and a very pleasant environment
In general, we really like the hotel, and the room, and the pool, and the attitude of the staff, etc... We recommend
The restaurant seemed to us to be downgraded compared to the other years that we left. In particular, some dishes had good quality one day and baked the next (specifically sweet veal). The current menu system of 28 euros, excluding drinks, doesn't make much sense because it's practically the same as what's on the menu and not worth it. The weekly menu was much better than what was offered before and which we were now told was only for those on half board. Otherwise, we really like the hotel, the treatment is very good and we intend to return. Thanks
13 Aug 2022
Charming hotel overlooking the sea
Old but good facilities and attitude of great staff
in general, everything is fine, perhaps the age of the furniture is the only thing that needs to be updated
11 Aug 2022
Quiet and pleasant stay, without crowds
Close to the beach. Quiet. good breakfast Free parking.
Everything is OK.
9 Aug 2022
Good
Staff, views.
The room is a little old, the air conditioning is not very powerful and also old.
9 Aug 2022
We would love to come back!!
The pool, the restaurant (cooking school) and the fair price!

Beach hotel
beach hotel Very good views. Very very friendly administrators. The hotel needs a reform because it is stuck in 60. A few years ago we dined again in Sant Pau and stayed here because it is one of the few hotels in the city, this time we came back to the discovery of Sant Pau and we stayed here again, because there is nothing else in the city.
We arrived at the hotel and at the reception asked if there was a vending machine with water and soft drinks, they told us that no, but that they sold us to take it to the room in the dining room, they told us how to get to the dining room very very kind. We go into the dining room and the waiter in a rude form tells us "closed", we apologize and tell him that we were told at the reception to go and that they can sell us water to go up to the room, we answer: "you tell my colleagues at the reception If they don't know my schedule, they recognize it," of course, I did not tell them anything, because I was amazed. I work in a hotel just like him, facing the public, I know what his job is, I will never come to head like this to respond to the customer Problems between departments are handled internally without the customer involved I assume these are different ways of working but I was very surprised for the worse I hope being a hotel school they don't teach students these "good" manners.
2 Aug 2022
overall good but a bit dated
Swimming pool, nearby beach, varied breakfast buffet, free parking
the hotel deserves a bit of a refresh, especially in the rooms which are a little dated… the beds are comfortable but the air conditioning is not very efficient and turns off every time you open the bay window to get to the balcony. the view from the ground floor balconies is somewhat "overshadowed" by the flat roofs of the buildings below.
31 Jul 2022
very nice
The treatment, the cleanliness, the comfort, the spaces
all right
31 Jul 2022
A nice place waiting to update the rooms
The breakfast buffet very well presented and with a lot of variety and quality of products. The treatment of the staff very correct and friendly.
Cleaning the bathroom. The equipment and furniture of the rooms needs to be updated.
31 Jul 2022
it's really good to live there
very nice staff, good facilities in the hotel, large rich breakfast room cleaned every day, towels always changed
can't blame anything
26 Jul 2022
Cozy and quiet, by the sea
Location and friendly staff. Huge and comfortable bed. View from the room (we lived on the 3rd floor)
The hotel was clean, everything worked fine, but an update would take it up a notch.
24 Jul 2022
Ideal accommodation to spend a night in Sant Pol.
An accommodation with history, well located if you want to spend the day in Sant Pol and with a good gastronomic offer.
Maybe it's starting to need some updating, although it's still comfortable.
23 Jul 2022
short stay but excellent. Close to a wonderful beach. beautiful swimming pool with mattresses. Good hearty breakfast
welcome cleanliness of the place
nothing
23 Jul 2022
We will be back next summer!!!! Thank you very much for the friendliness and professionalism of the staff.
Very good breakfast and great location!
I can't think of anything. Ouch!!!!. The food is EXCELLENT
22 Jul 2022
is it worth it
Great location, the views from the room, the tranquility, the service. Ideal place to disconnect for a few days by the sea.
The bathroom is small and outdated, but clean and functional. TV, air conditioner... they are also a few years old
22 Jul 2022
Good hotel to stay
Full breakfast, nice view
very old room impractical bathroom Needs a deeper cleaning
17 Jul 2022
good place to disconnect
views, breakfast, pool and that you can bring your pet

16 Jul 2022
VERY GOOD
Excellent treatment and a very complete buffet style snack
16 Jul 2022
Great views and helpful staff
Staff opinions and attention
Room soundproofing needs to be improved
15 Jul 2022
Top Sant Pol de Mar
The food (menu for 17 euros) was very good and friendly. The hotel staff were also very friendly. We will definitely return. Our room was quiet and had a dream view.
The bathroom smelled very strongly from the ventilation shaft, it must have been broken!
14 Jul 2022
Good night to the sound of the waves
sea view and silence. Very hospitable staff. Spacious bedroom and large terrace. Beach access. Good breakfast with choice.

Simple and pleasant, in front of the sea
Very nice, well located and the attention is very correct. The facilities are spacious and the views from the rooms overlook the sea. The breakfast is varied and plentiful and the restaurant offers excellent food for lunch or dinner.
The pillows in the rooms (at least the standard ones) were very thin and not very comfortable. The cistern in our room (102) was not working at all.
24 Jun 2022
Perfect overnight hotel with a beautiful sea view.
Wonderful view of the sea from our furnished balcony. Large and bright room. Friendly staff. Good dinner in the hotel restaurant. Easy to park.
A little tired especially the bathroom.

Not enough furniture
14 Jun 2022
Nice hotel with great sea view
Very friendly and courteous staff (the hotel is affiliated with the School of Hotel Management), the rooms are clean, large balcony with sea view, enough sockets, breakfast buffet is fantastic! The adjoining restaurant is also highly recommended: a large selection of regional cuisine, well prepared and reasonably priced.
A small fridge in the room would be nice, the bathroom is a bit dated.
11 Jun 2022
Happy and relaxed in Sant Pol de Mar
Sea view rooms. The hotel is located on a hill on the outskirts of Sant Pol de Mar. The walk to the beach is short. Unfortunately, the road leading out of the city passes the hotel (from the side of the balcony). The parking lot is big enough. The breakfast was delicious. The bed was huge.
6 Jun 2022
pleasant stay with great sea view
best location and staff
housekeeping is poor, there was a lollipop stick outside the door.
30 May 2022
Great
sea view
some old furniture

Good hotel with a less beautiful sea view
The staff, especially in the restaurant, were very attentive and polite. The hotel itself is recommended if you are only staying for a day or two. Less suitable for a beach holiday, as the path to the beach leads down many steps. A bit difficult for older people.
We were looking forward to the sea view, but it was spoiled by the ugly roof structure with chimneys of a block of houses in the first row by the sea. You can partially improve the view by covering the glass panels of the balcony with an opaque material.
14 May 2022
3rd time in the same hotel, I will repeat!
The views, the location, the relaxation that comes with being there, the attitude of the staff was a great solution.
The restaurant is ok but the chef could improve. We ordered the duck dish and it was very tough (when duck is supposed to be tender).
5 May 2022
Sleep by the sea
Kinds!! It is also the luxury of sleeping to the sound of the sea. The calmness and good attitude of the staff.
I think that those who visit the city for the first time could be offered more information about routes and activities.
18 Apr 2022
lulled by the waves
Live view and sound of the sea, exciting 1st plane of the sea. Very good location and big room and beds. Very attentive service. We appreciate the sinks with shelves and places to store cosmetic bags and towels, hotels do not always have them, but here it was perfect.
3 Apr 2022
great stay and we will be back in a few months for a few days of peace
sea view - onsite catering at low prices - good location in a very friendly and beautiful village
admittedly the hotel seems a bit old, with facilities that could use an update

Breakfast and views.
There was noise in the room, similar to the operation of an air conditioner.
21 Feb 2022
Not bad, but don't expect something otherworldly
Very comfortable bed. Good breakfast.
The hotel is not bad, maybe even very good, if you know where you are going. But the pictures are a bit misleading, maybe what I didn't like is that I was expecting something different. The hotel is old and the sea views are separated by a car park where the balconies actually open.
19 Feb 2022
An excellent stay!
Sea view room! When we arrived, the room was surprisingly warm. Nice staff!! Excellent breakfast buffet.
Dinner portions were really too small!! The main course looked like an appetizer.
13 Feb 2022
Big
Great view from the 3rd floor. Pretty quiet Minibar and XXL bed Complementary breakfast buffet has something for everyone: sweet and savory...
There is no water faucet in the bath.

The heating took a while to work.

Looking out to sea
Sea view room and beautiful. The attitude of the hotel staff is very good. The hotel restaurant (L'Ermita) is the school of hotel and tourism and the food is very good, highly recommended.
The mattress is very uncomfortable and the room needs to be upgraded.
22 Nov 2021
Very good value for money
Large room, clean, nice view. Accept animals. Excellent breakfast.
The decor is a bit austere.

Very good, but ...
view drinks in fridge staff cleanliness pool breakfast
A restaurant that doesn't change the menu every day Dishes and service that makes you skeptical, even if you want to be conciliatory, given that this is an app restaurant

Very good hotel and value for money
Very good breakfast. Very spacious and clean room. Very friendly staff. I'll be back!!

Tranquility in Saint Paul
Location, pool and breakfast. The attitude towards employees is excellent.
There was nothing I didn't like.
28 Aug 2021
Simple hotel with sea view
Parking Location
very old furniture expired jam non-functional bathroom
28 Aug 2021
Great!
The staff, restaurant and location are great! They provided us with a room to take advantage of the day of departure at a very modest price.
The rooms should be updated, especially the bathroom
27 Aug 2021
Great location, but a bit expensive
The location is great, just a few steps from the beach. The room with balcony overlooking the sea. Very kind staff. Good breakfast. Despite the problems of the structure, the rooms and the bathroom are clean
A little expensive compared to the services and the condition of the rooms which are old, not well maintained (the bedspread was torn, the bathroom smelled like sewage from the pipes) and lacked services (for example, there was no mini-bar).
26 Aug 2021
For the three days that we stayed, it hasn't been bad.
Quite complete breakfast, the hotel well located to go to the beach that was quite quiet on the days that we were there, as well as the quiet and comfortable pool, very comfortable parking the car at the door of the hotel in its free parking lot. The hotel looks a bit old now, but good cleaning and very friendly and attentive staff, the room with a balcony overlooking the sea, the beds starting to be a bit uncomfortable, the bathroom acceptable. The restaurant looked good, but in the end we didn't try it...
The beds were what I liked the least, but they are not bad at all, the balcony has the typical curtain that does not let light in, but it lacks another one that lets it in like in other hotels, that is, you have it completely open or are you in the dark and if you open it there is no other that gives you a bit of privacy with respect to the street.
24 Aug 2021
Nice and quiet place!
All the rooms have a large balcony with sea views, the breakfast is complete and healthy, the attention is very professional and the pool space is also very good.
Right on our balcony there was a huge exhaust fan that made a significant level of noise that can cause discomfort.
24 Aug 2021
It's a traditional hotel, I mean it's hard to improve some things
Breakfast (self-service) was very good. The pool area is ok
The bathroom in the room is very old. The rooms on the ground floor face the street behind, and only parked cars are visible. In the room there is only a chair, not a comfortable chair
23 Aug 2021
Fuck on the outside, fine on the inside...
The hotel itself including breakfast and employees were great! The cleanliness of the room was great!
Our room was very old and not worth the money. One of our two beds was old and the springs were coming out. Altogether zero lovingly furnished. Not even a picture! Quite in contrast to the rest of the hotel complex which is very nice!
23 Aug 2021
hotel
Views.
The very hard beds, the lousy television, the very small pool. Otherwise well.
19 Aug 2021
A few beautiful days
I liked everything else: staff, excellent breakfast, cleanliness, location...
They do not give an option when booking for half board or full board.
18 Aug 2021
Good hotel
The spaciousness of the room and the variety and good organization at breakfast.
A mysterious noise that was often heard and we didn't know what it was... Shower could not regulate the water temperature well.
18 Aug 2021
My position
Location, next to the beach and excellent sea view from the room
Unpaved parking area

Acogedor
Location, room with sea view, breakfast
There was no clothesline, rooms with few details, there was no fridge
17 Aug 2021
Quiet
The treatment of the staff is very good and especially that of Joan, the waiter in the afternoon. He is very professional and the treatment is excellent.
The furniture in the rooms could be renewed, it is very old and deteriorated. The bathroom is spacious but also very old.
16 Aug 2021
Very good, beds, views and breakfast.
The views of the room, the width of the beds, the air conditioning and without a doubt, the breakfast.
The furniture was a bit dated, the phone falls off by itself and therefore we had to keep it off the hook all the time.
14 Aug 2021
Excelente
Personal touch and tranquility of the place
Old furniture and rooms need to be modernized a little. There was no terrace awning.

Fantasy
The staff is fantastic, everyone, starting with the reception who are charming and helpful, especially the lady in the afternoon, the location is very good too
As the only bad thing in the pool, there is a product that makes our swimsuits all turn green... We don't know if it was the chlorine or what
3 Aug 2021
Purity
Very good communication with beaches and visits to the town. Low noise and very attentive staff.
The sink and shower a bit uncomfortable

We'll be back
The location, next to the beach and the town. The rooms, comfortable and with sea views The pool and breakfast very good
In general all good
27 Jul 2021
Nice views and quiet, but old
The room was very large, very quiet and with a view of the sea
It is noticeable that it is an old hotel and some small repairs need to be made, such as the railing
16 Jul 2021
Simple but correct, can improve
The pool and everything around it
The room is too simple and small, the furniture needs a good overhaul, the bathroom is outdated but correct

Quiet and comfortable stay
The room was simple but comfortable. Great views, to the sea. The staff very friendly.
There is nothing to comment
26 Jun 2021
Spectacular views
The location is very good, the views of the sea are spectacular and it is very close to the center of the municipality.
The rooms need updating, especially the sink.
6 Jun 2021
very relaxing
The continuous sound of the sea is most relaxing, it is great to disconnect. It has been a very good weekend.
The rooms are decent but without luxuries, they lack nothing, although there are no rooms with double beds, at least not on the web.
31 May 2021
with the family very well
The staff, great for walking, cleanliness and the beach is very beautiful
furniture and bathrooms, especially furniture

Good value for money in a quiet hotel with sea views
The friendliness of the hotel employees. Breakfast. The tranquility of the site. The sea views. The spaciousness of the room. The TV. The pillow very comfortable.
The bed was very hard.
