“Pleasent stay in a great location”

The hotel is really well located in the main plaza of Besalu. We left our car outside the center on a free parking and walked for 5 minutes.

The hotel is really well located in the main plaza of Besalu. We left our car outside the center on a free parking and walked for 5 minutes. The room as clean, with one unpleasant exception - that was dealt with right away! Our room was nice and had a great view. In our whole "Besalu experience" (hotel, restaurants, ice cream parlors, etc), no one was rude or unpleasant, but we felt like people are more quiet, lacking a bit of enthusiasm, or just don't want to be pushy to the clients. We just have to keep in mind that this is in a small town where nothing happens, so don't keep expectations too high.

“Great location on main square in a delightful mediaeval town”

We checked into this hotel for one night at the beginning of April. There seemed to be no other options in town that night, but I was slightly wary of this hotel, as previous reviews I had read had been somewhat unfavourable.

We checked into this hotel for one night at the beginning of April. There seemed to be no other options in town that night, but I was slightly wary of this hotel, as previous reviews I had read had been somewhat unfavourable. I was nonetheless happy when they said that they had a room available and they gave us the key so that we could go to inspect it (quite rare this, in my experience). We went with some trepidation, but the room was large with a good bathroom and TWO balconies on adjacent walls. It was on the second floor and had good views over the main square. The manner of the receptionist was perhaps a little abrupt, as she explained that they did not take credit cards, that the rate did not include breakfast and that they did not unlock the front door until 9 in the morning. But some people are just like that and she managed a smile when we said that the room was ‘muy bonito’; ‘very nice’. The room was comfortable, although it was odd that the sheets seemed to be not quite the right size for the bed. We fixed this by remaking the bed with the sheets turned through 90 degrees: they were then fine. We did not have breakfast as there was no indication what breakfast was and what it would cost and anyway we also needed an early start for the day - and the hotel breakfast starting at 9 was too late for us. The cost of the room was €72.01 for the night, which was good value for that room. When I looked up our room (201) I saw that it was listed as a ‘junior suite’ Recommended.

“Take a bath plug”

The hotel is situated in a pleasant square with various restaurants. Access to the hotel is via narrow roadways. Be mindful of traffic, including speeding cyclists. Reception staff have very little English. There is a bar behind reception. There is a lift. I had room 104 which had a jacuzzi, but n… lisää

The hotel is situated in a pleasant square with various restaurants. Access to the hotel is via narrow roadways. Be mindful of traffic, including speeding cyclists. Reception staff have very little English. There is a bar behind reception. There is a lift. I had room 104 which had a jacuzzi, but no bath plug. The room had a small window and twin beds. In the morning I went to check out at 07.50 and settle my account. There was no staff. The bar area had not been cleared since I left at 10pm. I waited till 8am, left my room pass, and went to catch my transport.
