Calella de Palafrugell hotels

Pros: Very relaxing

Pros: The personal is very friendly and helpful, also very professional

Cons: Nothing

Pros: A garden oasis - near the beach! Would happily return.

Cons: Pool bar / breakfast arrangements could be a little more thought through.

Pros: Peaceful garden yet minutes from the centre. Helpful staff

Cons: Could do with more soundproofing..and slightly more luxurious fittings in the room. Plus shower caps.

Pros: The staff were very friendly and very informative about the local area

Cons: Couldn't fault the hotel but it çould do with lunch or dinner options?

Pros: The staff were very pleasant. Marina, Maria and the girl who generally prepared the breakfast, I think Paola and all the staff, were always attentive and smiling. An extra thanks to the gardener/handyman who was so hard working to keep the grounds looking good. The hotel was in easy walking distance from the beach and restaurants. I liked the movable tall mirror in the bedroom, as I was able to move to get the best light!! Walk in shower was excellent. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast very good. The sunbeds were readily available. Excellent stay surrounded by gardens and trees, yet so close to the centre of Llafranc.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: good location. sun beds available on lawn.

Cons: Decor in bedroom very bleak. 1 rail behind curtain otherwise no storage. no drawers or shelves! No bar or snack bar. only 1 chair in room for 2 people! no table. Chairs on balcony very cheap and uncomfortable. Concrete floor in shower! A few tiles would help. Reception hadn't any information about the area in English.

Pros: The staff were very helpful and accommodating. They offered to make dinner and excursion arrangements for us. The grounds were relaxing and beautifully kept.

Pros: Good location, only 300 meters from village center. Lovely setting. Lots of restaurant choices (see below). Friendly, helpful staff. Vey quiet and secure. Good, free parking. Nice, adequate breakfast with Nespresso machine (coffee/tea anytime). The rooms are "minmalist", clean but spare, a bit like a Hotel 6 with a nice view. OK, but sparse.

Cons: The only "problem' was the period of time I was there, essentially the end of the season. During several of the nights I was there, I was the only guest. Being the only guest was a bit strange but the real hurdle was the fact that only one of the many restaurants in the village were open in all but one of the nights I was there. If I had known this, I would have either come at a different time, or I would have stayed in a less-seasonal location. This seemed to come at a surprise to hotel staff because all of the restaurants they suggested were closed. That was a disappointment that didn't need to happen.

Pros: A really lovely hotel with parking. Gorgeous pool and grounds, lovely very friendly staff. We highly recommend it and will definitely come again. Also it is so close to the beach and the restaurants. But what a joy to get away from the noise and crowds ànd come back to this oasis of calm and tranquility...

Cons: The only criticism I might have is that the pillows’were Too soft. Maybe one hard one and one soft one?

Pros: quiet, breakfasts, lunches, beds, staff lovely, view great, location perfect, small hotel

Cons: last bit of the hill but it wasn't a big problem.

Pros: The staff are extremely friendly and the view is amazing

Pros: Very friendly staff. Excellent breakfast. Beautiful view over Llafranc. Free parking.

Cons: The beds were too hard.

Pros: The view from the pool was simply fabulous, breakfast every single day was one of the best and most delicious breakfasts I've had in a hotel- quality not quantity! Decor is lovely in rooms. Shower and products excellent. Daily clean was thorough and very discreet. Location is excellent as Hotel is only a 6 min walk from town down a steep hill. Check in suggestions were all good and very helpful. The dark haired lady who arranged transport was fantastic and so friendly! Thanks!

Cons: Although rooms are nicely decorated with good facilities, I had specifically booked a superior sea-view room. Our room had a (small) partial sea-view only if you stood in one part of it and twisted your neck! Not ideal really when you've paid extra for it. Perhaps advertise these rooms as 'partial sea-view superior' so people know what to expect as I was very disappointed and felt slightly ripped off. I asked about this at reception and they just said some superior rooms are downstairs. I'd imagine the upstairs rooms have a spectacular view. Another suggestion would be that a hotel of this calibre and price should provide padded sunbeds. (It is not misleading in any way the sunbeds are shown in pictures) but I feel it would really add to the experience and add a lot of comfort to people's stay.

Pros: Beautiful location with wonderful views. Very serene and quiet hotel perfect for a relaxing chilled break. Breakfast was good with a variety of choice, which covers most tastes. Room was large, cleaned daily with a balcony overlooking the pool and sea.

Cons: Perhaps complimentary water in the room.

Pros: Thank you for such an amazing holiday, the staff are amazing especially YOLANDA who normally looks after the gusts in the evening, she is a force and has a great energy. will be returning to the Hotel and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quiet,relaxing break !

Cons: Staff, Food, Pool was awesome, for me personally the location as it was not close to bars which meant we tended to relax in the evenings rather than go out and spend spend spend (whoch is what we needed).

Pros: A lovely relaxed hotel in a great location with very attentive staff and great food and drinks.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Beautiful location (apart from the hill climb!). Very peaceful & staff were amazing.

Pros: Breakfast was excellent. Bedroom totally comfortable and well decorated. The view over the bay was wonderful, as was the swimming pool and its position. Altogether a real oasis of tranquillity and comfort. Very hospitable family proprietors and delightful staff.

Cons: The signposting from the entrance to Llfranc was non-existent, and the signs to the hotel only really began when you had nearly arrived (by car). Returning from the village after an evening meal requires extreme sturdiness of limbs. It is a seriously steep climb.

Pros: The hotel has an enviable position on the hill behind Llafranc. The views from the hotel out across the town to the sea are spectacular. Although it’s set back from the town, the walk to the beach is only 10 minutes.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Our stay at the Casa Calella was excellent. Everyone made a genuine effort to ensure our comfort. You are just a couple of minutes from the water and Calella de Palafrugell is a beautiful seaside town - great tapas and wine!

Pros: Unbeatable location in the town, plus in front of little peaceful church. Very kind host, the place itself is very calm, peaceful, clean.... The comfort of the bed was an unexpected nice surprise.

Cons: would be nice to have a possibility to make some hot tea in the night. And maybe a cork opener !

Pros: Excellent service from the staffs. Very near to the beach & to almost all of the restaurants Charming hotel & bedroom Unlimited breakfast We love the garden especially the breakfast nook under the lemon tree

Cons: Its infront of the chapel. And the bell wakes me up at 5:00am! A bit expensive

Pros: It was the little touches like the freshly squeezed orange at breakfast to the attentive nature of the host. Explaining many lovely places to visit in the area.

Cons: Nothing it was perfect.

Pros: The staff and owner were very friendly and extremely efficient. The breakfast was superb sat in the sunny garden. The room was clean and tidy and the bed very comfortable. Good shower too.

Cons: The church bells although by the 3rd day we were used to them and slept through

Pros: This little guesthouse makes you feel right at home and it’s location in Calella gives you the feeling of a house to yourself without all the hassle of hiring a villa The rooms are pretty simple but there is a lovely outdoor garden to enjoy a drink or a picnic lunch. You can’t see the sea ...but it is very quiet and only a 2 minute walk to the beach and fab restaurants The breakfast was absolutely perfect with fresh croissants, fruit , cheese and meats . The staff were helpful and attentive . Highly recommended

Pros: Very lovely hotel with a beautiful view over Llafranc beach and marina. Would recommend getting a room with a sea view. Nice breakfast and free parking is possible close to hotel. The restaurant is meant to be excellent however we did not have dinner here as we stayed only one night.

Cons: Would book a sea view room next time - our room was facing a wall and ventilator shaft and was therefore quite dark.

Cons: Nothing

Cons: The parking is a bit complicated but the staff is very helpful to get you to the parking place with a gate around it. But in all fairness, parking is a bit problematic in entire Llafranc so no reason for downgrading the score for this hotel

Pros: The property was exceptionally clean, the staff were remarkably friendly and you cannot match the location/views. A true gem of Costa Brava. Relax on the beach. Hike to 2 nearby towns. Live your best life.

Pros: The breakfast and the friendliest staff .

Pros: Wonderful position - comfortable room - friendly staff

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Fantastic location, staff lovely, very comfortable

Pros: Helpful front desk staff Beautiful coastal walks

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: We highly recommend this hotel. The view and breakfast were exceptional, the decor is simple but lovely, and the location is the best in Calella. We found the price we paid very reasonable. Staff was overall very lovely.

Cons: The room seemed very clean except for black mold in the shower. This really needs to be addressed, otherwise we have no complaints for the hotel. As for the restaurant, it could be better. The advantage is the exceptional view, absolutely gorgeous and framed well by large windows. However, we ate there two nights (out of laziness to go out) and we were not impressed with any of the main dishes we ordered either night. The appetizers and desserts were good, but the main dishes were very small in portion, and although beautifully presented, were nothing special in taste.

Pros: Great spot and views to die for.

Cons: Needs a bit of an update in the decor

Pros: Lovely views, lovely staff, and a very well maintained retro place to stay at Calella de Palafrugell! the hotel has the best views there, thanks to its location up on a hill overlooking the old village and right next to amazing secret swimming spots. There is a supermarket next to it (5 min walking distance). The property is easily accesible from Barcelona by bus to palafrugell (2h10 min) and then a 10 min taxi ride to the property or take the local bus there that might take up to 15 min and drop you next to the hotel as well.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Excellent location and views if you can get Ocean front room. Very helpful multi-lingual staff. Fun ocean decor in bar/ restaurant area. Amazing views for meals/ drinks. Easy access to ocean and town.

Cons: Very outdated rooms and really uncomfortable hard beds with skinny minimal pillows. Rooms are drab and dated but pretty typical ocean area. This would be higher review if they had good beds

Pros: Everything. Way beyond what one would expect from a 3-star hotel (“3-star” still gives you this stereotype of something “nice and proper, no more”). This hotel has style and class, it is spotlessly clean, gives the impression of being recently renovated (or very well kept), service from the reception to cleaning to the restaurant deserves all 5 stars (“5-star” is still associated with class and style which you often fail to find there now, unfortunately). Location is perfect, 1st line on the cliff with panoramic views over Calella and the sea, 3 minutes walk to the beaches and the center of Calella. Good breakfasts, excellent restaurant open for lunch and dinner. And the outside terrace with olive and pine trees and those views... idyllic. I had a superior room with a terrace overlooking the restaurant garden and the sea, plus two lateral windows (one with balcony), tastefully decorated and super-cosy. A place to re-visit.

Cons: Hard to book for high season. But taking the advantages (see above) what would you expect?

Pros: The view !

Cons: Suggest bottled water in rooms

Pros: We got a free session at the roof top jacuzzi and ordered some drinks that the friendly owner brought upstairs.

Pros: Excellent buffet breakfast with option of cooked omelette. Location just off the square on the sea front. Many excellent restaurants close by. Staff could not do enough for us, and were very pleasant and friendly. Easy parking close by.

Cons: nothing

Pros: Delicious breakfast, amazing jacuzzi & terrace. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Warm welcoming from the people working at the hotel. Always there to answer our questions.

Pros: Location and breakfast was excellent Managed to get street parking at no extra cost Staff provided ice on request and no charge Brother owners of hotel very friendly and helpful Would definitely revisit

Cons: All good

Pros: Great location, facilities and staff.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: People; location; breakfast; roof top.

Pros: The location is unbeatable - uninterrupted views over the Mediterranean (although the antennae in front of the lighthouse spoil this a little). The rooms are comfy and spacious although some details could be improved (the hairdryer, the room temperature). The staff are very professional and friendly both in the hotel and the restaurant where the food is also a of a very high quality.

Cons: See above

Pros: Easy check-in. Friendly staff. Incredible location.

Cons: Food at dinner was good but not exceptional.

Pros: Amazing views, lovely private terrace overlooking the light-house and spacious room. Lovely maritime decoration.

Pros: Loved the location and the ambience of the whole place.

Cons: Possibly unlock the main hotel doors to make it easier to bring our bags in... instead of walking thru the restaurant. However I’m sure that is a staffing issue and I understand that!

Pros: Great location. Friendly staff. And an excellent on site restaurant. The views are spectacular.

Cons: I wish there had been sun loungers in the public areas. There’s nowhere to sit and sunbathe unless you have a room with a balcony.

Pros: Amazing view and nice food. definitely will try to back here again!

Pros: Fantastic view. Excellent cuisine.

Cons: Decor could do with a makeover

Pros: Place was amazing sights

Cons: No Elevator - Many Stairs - Staff not too attentive

Pros: Beautiful hotel/restaurant at the former convent/Cap Saint-Sebastian Lighthouse. The rooms and building are charming. I would recommend room #4 for the best view terrace and of the ocean (it's the one on the corner). There are many great beach-side spots to have lunch down the hill in LLafranc, but definitely do a full dinner at the El-Far restaurant, well worth it!

Pros: High standard restaurant and interesting character of the place. Obviously a popular restaurant with locals .

Cons: Nothing to dislike, although as a "with rooms" restaurant a little more attention to residents on entry would be an enhancement

Pros: All that you expect to find in a good hotel was there. Clean, good bedding, fine food in the restaurant including breakfast. Very friendly staff .

Pros: So close to the beach with roof terrace. Clean and fresh and all staff spoke English

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very good buffet breakfast with delicious scrambled eggs made to order, coffee also (you need to request it), selection of healthy options, fresh fruit salad, mixed nuts were so fresh, tomatoes to make your own pan con tomate. Good quality toiletries. Location is right on esplanade so handy to beach. Mixed review re staff. One was super friendly and chatty and made me feel welcome (as a a solo traveller this is especially important) the other not so friendly and would not let me check out an hour later. They do however allow you to leave your bags after checking out and you can go take a shower and use a bathroom, which was great. Small fridge in room.

Cons: Light sleepers may have a problem hearing the humming of the aircon in the hallway. It’s faint, so not a problem for most, but not if you are a light sleeper. I didn’t get any sleep. Room 104. Nice, small interior room with no bedrooms adjoining (so I thought I would get sleep).

Pros: good breakfast. excellent location

Cons: For the most absolutely a good stay and a great hotel, location wise. Only negative was the reception desk personell. They would benefit from actually providing a smile and give the guests a feel of being welcomed. Not a big deal, but that shouldn't be too difficult to improve.

Pros: The breakfast was good but nothing special. The location and view were wonderful.

Cons: The staff could have been a little friendlier. Also, I asked if we could do an early check out and if someone would be there to assist us since we had to leave before 8AM. I was told yes, but the next morning there wasn't anyone at the front desk.

Pros: Marvellous stay. Excellent restaurant. Highly recommend. Thank you Carlos

Pros: Location was fantastic and staff helpful.

Pros: We had a third floor room with a balcony overlooking the beach and also easy access to the terrace which is under-utilised when we were there. We were able to order dinner from the restaurant and get it delivered to the terrace so we had an amazing view for dinner. The room was super clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great and included with the stay and staff were helpful. We were able to use the beach umbrellas from the hotel instead of having to buy them which was great.

Cons: The rooms were a little small but with the terrace it was fine. The parking was extra at 11 euros a day and wasn’t very close.

Pros: Gorgeous little hotel right on the beach and a lovely little square. Quite simply my favourite hotel stay ever. I didnt want to leave.

Cons: There was nothing I didnt like.

Pros: Lovely staff. Great tidy simple yet elegant rooms for summer vacation.

Pros: Impeccably clean, friendly staff

Cons: Uncomfortable beds, no AC, super noisy fan, thin walls so you can hear most of the things your neighbors do

Pros: Great location.

Cons: Be careful after hours check in... we were lucky but had no response. A very helpful girl was able to let us in... good to have a fridge/kitchenette from the lobby available at all hours but this was our fault. Recommend a room with air conditioning in summer!

Pros: Great communication, made it easy for a late check-in. Very friendly

Pros: The property was lovely, really clean and in a quiet location. Served breakfast in the morning and a roof terrace. Staff were friendly, came in to clean our room every day and provide clean towels. Perfect for a quiet couples short stay (we’re late 20’s and would prefer a bit more nightlife normally but perfect for a short stay).

Cons: It would have been nice to have a hairdryer in the room. A safe would also have been handy as carrying passports around isn’t ideal.

Pros: Breakfast was fabulous....Staff were fabulous and excellent location....rooms comfy...lovely towels every day...beds very very comfortable

Cons: nothing

Pros: Lovely clean rooms great position 2 mins to the beach

Cons: Could do with extra can in room very hot

Pros: It is one block from the beach so the location was perfect. Rooms are super clean and a very friendly staff.

Cons: The twin bed was small and mostly comfortable. The fan was well pointed towards the beds but no air conditioning (which may most be a thing in this area).

Pros: Great Location and clean.

Cons: No Air Conditioner, no Fridge, no wardrobe, no tea and coffee facilities.

Pros: Very nice staff and Clean rooms. Good breakfast!

Cons: Level of the rooms very different!

Pros: We absolutely loved our stay at Hostal La Llagosta - it was during the low season so it was super nice and relaxing, we had 2 rooms with sea side views and woke up to the sound of birds chirping and the waves. Absolutely fantastic. While nothing luxurious, the hostal is exactly as advertised - great value for money with unbeatable location! The lady who welcomed us was incredibly nice and even gave me a first aid kit for free when I asked her if there was a pharmacy open nearby because I had had an accident and busted my knee. I will definitely recommend stay there.

Pros: The staff, the location and the food were outstanding

Pros: Breakfast was exactly what we expected; quite basic but just right as it was inclusive.

Cons: All was fine.

Cons: We stayed here in the low season, and got a room on the sea front with a nice sea view for a really good price. Apart from this, the place was clean and comfortable, and the staff very friendly. We loved it!

Pros: Position

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great location just next to the beach A bit far from the main town but still a lot of good eateries around.

Cons: Everything was good .

Pros: Really friendly helpful staff. Great breakfasts and food. Fantastic location on sea front.

Cons: Air conditioning would have been great.

Pros: Location, Hotel, Food, Wine and Staff

Cons: Nothing to report

Pros: Fantastic position Fan and hair dryer readily supplied on request. Plenty of hot water.

Cons: No lounge or seating area to chill out in. Only the restaurant, which we didn't feel we could just relax in a read a book. Would have been nice to have a variety of fruit each day for breakfast. For 2 of our 4 days there was only apples on offer which were past their best, as were most of the pastries.

Pros: Very nice breakfast

Cons: No fridge in the room

Pros: We loved this little hotel. The location was perfect, 2 mins from the beach and some great cafes and resturants. The bed was super comfy (better than home!). It is a basic hotel but that was part of our reason for booking it. Keep it this way please! Don't do it up and go all fancy! Stay like you are :) We loved it and will definitely be back.

Cons: Nothing it was brill :)

Pros: Staff & basic breakfast.

Cons: No lifts, toilet took an hour to fill up after flush, shower hose leaking, hot tap on basin not working, had to keep asking for shower gel, 6 coat hangers to share.

Pros: All the facilities were good and what we expected. On the first morning the dining room was not available but arrangements were in hand to have breakfast at an adjacent hotel. Therefore this not detract from our holiday.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Quick walk away from the beach

Cons: Unclean and stuffy

Pros: The hotel is well located and a nice building. The rooms were well sized and we had a balcony with views of the sea

Cons: Bathrooms need upgrading. Showers were a total disaster. Between two rooms only one shower was in a good working condition! Breakfast expensive for what’s on offer and walls are paper thin. Could hear all what was going on in the corridors and neighbouring rooms

Pros: Excellent affordable hotel in quite pricey location, actually preferred it to the more expensive option we stayed in in Calella. Very friendly reception staff, good balcony

Cons: Pillow wasn't the most comfortable!

Pros: Very good breakfast with chance to fry your own egg which made them fresh. Varied spread of fruits, yoghurt, meats and pastries. Balcony with sea view (when standing ) was good to sit on in the evening sunset. good size room with comfortable bed.

Cons: Shower was a little small and awkward. Not that easy to use the remote for the aircon! Me just not used to it!!

Pros: The location is excellent and the hotel is such good value in what is an expensive location,
