Review 4:Nothing

Review 5:Martha and Gemma took really good care of us ..extremely pleasant loving and homely people ...thank you for making our trip as comfortable and amazinget

Review 6:Very welcoming and accomodating as we arrived with 2 bikes which they let us keep in a spare room for security. Fantastic breakfast, beautiful decor and art works everywhere. we will go back if we are in Besalu again. Great central location. Thank you.

Review 7:Best hotel by far. Small design-led converted building on edge of village. Very stylish. Great room, immaculately clean. Fantastic breakfast and very friendly staff / owners. Great garden - [improve with lavender in the gazebo planting tubs?]

Review 8:The location is in the heart of the old town. The cleanliness and quality of the hotel is first class. The staff are helpful and friendly. The garden, pool and Church are exceptional. Excellent value for money. The breakfast, decor and facilities are outstanding. I strongly recommend Casa Marcial as a perfect place to stay in Besalu. 10/10

Review 9:The design and atmosphere of the building was a little cold.

Review 10:The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was very well presented and appealing.

Review 11:Hard to find, especially with GPS, which routes you through the improbably tight streets and alleys of the old town. Parking is along the highway, some blocks from the hotel. There is an easier access, but you won't learn about it until you check in.

Review 12:An amazing little hotel in a wonderful medieval city, Besalú! Lots of room in the rooms and between the rooms, several open patios, a grassy area, and a swimming pool! Helpful staff, who recommended two superb restaurants! Not luxurious but very comfortable!

Review 13:The WiFi was a little slow, although ok to get emails etc in the public areas.

Review 14:Super location & excellent hotel all round. The rooms were very modern & the garden was an oasis from the heat of the town in July. The pool is small, but fine for a cool off, given the small number of rooms.

Review 15:A modern, comfortable hotel in a charming medieval village. A great combination. The people were friendly, helpful, accommodating. Our night in Besalu was delightful!

Review 16:Everything! What a gem of a find in this very quaint medieval town. Staff went out of their way at all times to assist and were so friendly, the design of the hotel is amazing. Breakfast variety very good and facilities first rate! Loved loved our stay and would highly recommend!

Review 17:Parking is a little difficult, but well what do you expect in a medieval town.

Review 18:Great staff ! Arrived really late, middle of the night, but still enormously sincerely friendly. Even got a tour around the property at 01.00 (!). Beautiful hotel, clean, nice atmosphere, spacious rooms, spectacular view.

Review 19:Who can possibly not like EVERYTHING about this place ?!

Review 20:We loved completely everything - from the marvelous lady-administrator (who was pleasant and very helpful with the maps and all explanations of all the sightseeings around Besalu area), modern spacious room with everything you may possibly need, garden to have a rest, swimming pool with the wonderful view over the hills, delicious breakfast. It's all quietness and peace in the middle of the ancient village. The only thing we regret is not staying there longer, but if we only knew that it's so beautiful!

Review 21:The experience was great and we would definitely return.

Review 22:Beautiful small hotel approximately 100 meters from the medieval bridge. The concierge Gemma was wonderful,she couldn't do enough for us including moving up breakfast so we could get away quicker. Room good sized with all the amenities.

Review 23:Impressed by the gardens and the breakfast, with views over towards the mountains and a medieval church in the grounds. Really friendly staff, who helped us pick a restaurant for the evening, and relaxed checkout time of 12pm!

Review 24:We liked everything about this hotel! It is very well designed, appointed and modern inside, even though it is set in the old town. The breakfast was amazing! We never had one like this where they displayed several choices of local charcuterie and baking. Absolutely lovely. The grounds are very nice, in the evenings you could have a nice glass of wine on the covered patio. It was a cool spring day when we were there otherwise we would certainly have enjoyed the pool. You park your car in a safe spot about a block away, walk in and enjoy the treasure.

Review 25:There was nothing we didn't like, except that Monday & Tuesdays are a bit quiet with many of the shops in Besalu closed.

Review 26:We loved swimming in the pool overlooking the village. The suite was luxurious and we loved that we could buy ham, cheese, wine etc in the village & eat it for dinner on our room patio overlooking the most amazing view & lit up monestary. Also great restaurants in village. Thanks to Gemma for being so helpful & giving us great advice on places to visit in the area.

Review 27:I was a little annoyed by loud voices talking in the next room during the night.

Review 28:Ms.Gemma was extremely kind and helpful. Overall, the hotel was spotlessly clean as though it had only just opened. Breakfast was exceedingly tasty, particularly the homemade bread and the fresh orange juice.

Review 29:Jenna was an absolute delight. We arrived a day early but this presented no problem to her .She introduced us to all aspects of the hotel and even offered to purchase and post a guide book we wanted when the shop had not opened by the time we had to leave. Great service !

Review 30:The breakfast was not much to brag about, it was very plain. Also the wifi did not work..

Review 31:I really enjoyed the Hotel, and the receptionist Gemma was really kind and helpful. We had a lovely Suite with a nice view of the Hotel garden

Review 32:Location for travel in la garatcha national park,beautiful old village,hospitality,family atmosphere in the hotel.Very recommend for your holyday in Catalonia.

Review 33:At 7:30 pm we learned that there were not going to be ANY restaurants opened for dinner in Besalu! Gemma did her very best calling around town. No luck; we had to drive to Figueres. Just wanted to let other visitors know if you overnight on a Tuesday.

Review 34:There were four of us and we booked two suites based on other travellers' opinions (wanted privacy in the bathrooms). The staff/Gemma, the hotel, the rooms, the grounds of the hotel were just perfect. And not too far from the parking area.

Review 35:Nearest place to park the car is on the road, in a lonely dark place.

Review 36:Excellent bedroom. Really nice staff. Very nice breakfast. Impressive house. Perfect stay.

Review 37:Staying in this hotel certainly will add charme to your sejour in Besalu. Though it's a relatively new hotel with some modernized parts, it still has this medieval feeling. Our room was spacious with great view on the mountains covered by clouds, breakfast is wonderful and the staff was very friendly, helping us to explore the mysterious Besalu and plan routes in this part of Catalunya.

Review 38:Wifi access available in lounge area just outside our room, but not in our room. No time to enjoy the sunny garden!

Review 39:Great location right in the pedestrian area of old Besalu. Lovely hostess who was very helpful. Hotel is newly renovated with large garden area. Nice breakfast.

Review 40:Wish we had stayed longer

Review 41:The architecture was really well done, the staff excellent and the owner also owned the beautiful old church around which the garden, seating area and pool had been designed. Couldn't fault it.

Review 42:Wonderfully attentive and accommodating staff and very knowledgeable about the area. Our room was bright and airy and so comfortable. Breakfasts were delicious! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Casa Marcial to anyone.

Review 43:I didn't like the emergency light that they have in the door. During the night is very uncomfortable.

Review 44:The hotel is very beautiful and in the spot of all attractions.

Review 45:Ask instructions for parking lot before you arrive otherwise be prepared to walk with luggage from the other end of town.

Review 46:Beautiful town and great location.Lovely breakfast and helpful staff.

Review 47:The staff ! Especially Mrs. Gemma ! She were very helpfull and she gave us a very good tips about Besalu . As a travel agent I will do my best to send tourists to this excellent hotel !!!

Review 48:Nothing!

Review 49:The Staff especially Gemma who appeared on reception, serving breakfast was fantastic, lovely hotel, view's, location will definitely be back

Review 50:Lack of parking. Room very small. Although there was a door from the room to an outside area/patio it was a dedicated "smokers corner"! Friend we also booked for had a room with an horrendous smell of drains. Pool is tiny.

Review 51:Location in the centre of town. Good beds and linen. Wifi. Breakfast was good. Receptionist friendly and welcoming. Well designed, spacious common areas. Books available in common areas.

Review 52:The hotel is in the narrow street of medieval town, arrival with car and luggage almost impossible, public parking relatively far. Only cold breakfast.

Review 53:Historical building charmingly renovated - modern design inside with big terrasse, garden and swimming pool. Great views at historical panorama of Besalu. Extremely helpfull staff - Gemma took care of our needs and proposed various ideas what to see and do in the region.

Review 54:1. The church bells ring loudly every hour all night, so keeping your windows pint is not an option (for me). 2. Hotel has no dedicated parking, parking is free a short walk from the hotel on the side of the road outside the city walls. This is not a problem but better directions on the web site would help (otherwise car navigation tries to navigate you through the narrow alleys of the old town - which is awkward and serves no purpose). 3 better separation of the shower cabin (eg a door) would help avoid spillage of water onto bathroom floor,

Review 55:This is a nice simple yet elegant boutique hotel. What makes a difference is outstanding service from Dolores the receptionist, she is just so kind so ready to help . I have been to many places but this is probably the most amazing service I ever experienced.

Review 56:Everything! Gemma was fantastic with us, she was really helpful and she made our stay perfect, I could not ask for more. Thank you!
