We stayed here in February for a night. The receptionist was fantastic, she was really helpful. The breakfast was good too. The room however was really not good. We were cold (even with extra blankets), we seemed to have a shower curtain for our window curtain and there wasn't any sound proofing, we could hear them sleeping/chatting/watching TV til 3am...

This was a good place to stay to explore the city of Tarragona. It is a couple of minutes from the railway station and it took me about 10 mins to the old town. I thought it was clean, friendly and the air-con was very much appreciated in the heat. Very good choice for breakfast with a mix of hot... More

I wish that good manners did grow on trees. If they did, then the staff here were surely first in line. We were greeted with a very friendly and helpful welcome from the young girl on their reception. She helped us negotiate into a tight parking space, gave us lots of hints and tips for our stay and onward travels.... More

We overnighted for Euro 53, inclusive of taxes and breakfast. If you have a car, the secured Car Park is less than 3 minutes away and does give you a 20% discount if you stay in this hotel. Car parking overnight in Tarragona is very expensive: Euro 18 - 25( in the centre of the old town) The buffet breakfast... More

Booked this hotel as near to Reus airport and our flight arrived late at night. Very friendly reception staff (at all times, as always a different face). Room clean but small, but we only ever use the rooms to sleep in so no problems there. Just a short walk to main ramblas and square. Not only would I say we... More

We picked this on the factor of price with the B&B option, paying 49 euros for the night, and we used it as a stop gap after a long weekend in Barcelona. Where do I start?
