We were in this hotel for the first time in 2005 and were completely charmed by this hotel. Awesome location, quiet, peaceful town, wonderful service at the hotel and is exceptionally tasty and varied food at reasonable prices. However, since then, it took seven years and what's the difference now. We were at this hotel in the summer of 2011... More

Dear Vladimir, First of all we appreciate your comments, so they help us to improve our service. Regarding the variety of the buffet, we adapt it to the period of the year, as in some months, such as june or september, our clientele is more local, and they prefer to choose from a variety of prepared dishes on a daily...

I stayed here in September and it was everything I could have asked for - peaceful, clean, with a view directly onto the sea. The location was great for Sant Pol de Mar. The room was fairly basic, but clean and perfect for my requirements. Very good value off season.

I have stayed here for many years. I am now disabled and need support and I have always found the staff, without exception, extremely good and helpful. Yes, it may not seen as a luxurious hotel but it is comfortable and has the best points i.e. clean, good food and most of all the best staff and they make your... More

I went to Sant Pol De Mar on the beginning of October to combine a yoga retreat with a little holiday, while most of Europe is heading towards colder months. I was lucky to arrive there and enjoy late summer temperature using Gran Sol as my lodging. The hotel is simple (very), lacks any decor but it make it all... More

Stayed at the Gran Sol last week - booked from Laterooms.com due to family emergency. I was a little worried as it was a two star but there really was no need as this hotel is better than some four star hotels I have stayed in. The staff were so helpful and couldn't do enough for you. The food was... More

We had a very enjoyable stay in this quiet, unpretentious hotel in a village so peaceful it seemed like something from another era. Just to clear up any misunderstandings - when booking this hotel, some reviewers seem to have been under the impression this hotel is right on the beach itself (maybe from the photos?). It is not - it... More

This hotel is trapped in 70s time-warp. If it wasn't for the fact that it has no competition whatsoever. I am certain that it could not exist or function as it does. The hotel doubles as a catering college and whilst the students are eager to learn and are extremely attentive and helpful. Those charged with overseeing their development and... More

Enjoyed our stay here although disappointed with our view of the sea. All rooms facing the sea but you can see the flat roofs of the buildings underneath on the seafront down below. Also the train track ran between the village and the sea, right along the sea front, and you had to cross this to get to the beach.... More

We spent a week at the end of July. The hotel is very close to the beaches of the village. The staff is friendly and clever. The buffet is of quality (the hotel is seat of a touristic university school). The only complaint could be the state of the bathroom facilities, quite old (but always clean). The room was cleaned...
