Reviews for Hotel Can Català
Review 1:L'Escala was a real surprise, lovely location. The hotel is family run, has a good lift, a car park out back, its accessible from the car park (make sure you request "no stairs room" if that's important to you when you book). Breakfast was excellent. Lovely people who manage English well and we learnt some Spanish. The hotel is located opposite the Tourism office and in the main Piazza. A walk thru the old town for about 200 metres brings you to the town beach and numerous restaurants and shops. You can also enjoy a coffee or drink in the bar located next to the reception at reasonable prices up to about 11pm at night. Room was fine, plenty of space, clean, good bathroom, shower bath, althou they need to look at the shower head support (I used an old toothpaste tube to fix it in place). Visited Girona, Roses, the lake at Banyoles, the old Roman and Greek town ruins. drove the coast road, local markets, great tapas and wine opposite the beach, spectacular 4 nights.

I had my doubts when I booked it because it was cheap. To my surprise and delight, it is really good. All the other guests were really nice. Will stay there again for sure.
Review 28:- it was quite loud since our room was facing the street side - the lights in the room aren't very romantic, but the lovely lady from the hotel could provide us with a little night stand lamp which made it great!

Review 31:Our room was overlooking the main road near the roundabout, which was very noisy with the sliding door open. Had to sleep with door closed and aircon on. Room very basic, needs more pillows for comfort. But clean enough. Would ask for room overlooking the car park for quietness.
Review 32:Good breakfast, friendly staff, good location, good parking for our large car full of dive gear.

Review 68:Nothing. It was fine..
Review 69:Centrally located in L'Escala, the hotel has a spacious private carpark behind it and is a hundred metres from the seafront and the restaurants of the old town. I was recommended a brilliant restaurant by the staff and they kept open the breakfast for me even though I was late. The room was comfortable and modern.
Review 70:OLD tired rooms Unreliable Hot water Original room very noisey and AC not working. No water in Bidet. Replacement room was the same except AC working Coffee at breakfast horrible. This is unacceptable, Spain has a very good understanding of what is good or bad coffee!
Review 71:Free Parking Price Staff were better than average
Review 72:I can't say that it is problem, but you must know that the furniture is quiet old.
Review 73:The hotel in whole is very nice and clean. It'is running by one family and you can even feel its atmosphere. The location is very good: just across the road - bus stop (buses depart and arrive to and from Barcelona, Figueres, Girona etc), and not so far from one of the city's beaches. I think this hotel is the best in the centre of La Escala to discover the most beautiful beaches outside the city (Mistral club beach as well). And, of course, I must say about breakfast. It is quiet perfect!
Review 74:bedside cabinets were a little dated with very little storage space and we would have liked tea/coffee making facilities
Review 75:Friendly family run hotel, the owners and staff were extremely helpful and obliging, our stay was much better than we could have imagined, the breakfast options were fantastic and everything was fresh each day
Review 76:Very helpful owners and the breakfasts were good quality.The location is superb with the tourist office and main bus stop opposite .It is on the edge of the historic part of the town and only 5 minutes walk to the town beach
Review 77:The location couldn't be better: on the edge of the old town, a 5-minute walk from the beach and right next to the tourist informationoffice, the tourist train stop and the bus stop for Barcelona. Our twinroom was basic and bright, with air conditioning, a big en suitebathroom and a balcony overlooking the quiet car park area with the seain the distance. The breakfast was a continental buffet with lots ofchoice, and there were loads of nice restaurants nearby. The staff werereally friendly and helpful and it was excellent value for money. Reallynice place :)
Review 78:Everything is very old and kind of dirty. Bathroom was not really dirty but not clean at all. The only light was a big fluorescent lamp over the bed. Not very cosy.
Review 79:Room with a big terrasse and bathroom. Room was quiet. Breakfast Buffett is good.
Review 80:Breakfast was the best we had in Spain. Staff we very pleasant andhelpful. Room was very comfortable with great shower. Great valuefor money.
Review 81:We loved the host family, they are friendly, flexible and gave us advises to find best beach, best dinner restaurant and made our short stay perfect. There was not many guests but the breakfast buffet was very rich. Our room was simple but very clear and with big balkony. The extra value of cause the safe parking lot in courtyard.
Review 82:We like everything besides the possibility to have the Internet in the room. But it was in the lobby and for us it was OK as we were on holiday.
Review 83:The staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a private parking place. The hotel is in the central part of the city and can be easily found. Breakfast is enough not to think about food until dinner and very tasty coffee is brought. The room is not luxurious but has all you need to spend night in comfort. So you get for your money even more than expect. We are going to this place in June and will choose the same hotel.
Review 84:The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and enough for our needs. The gentleman who checked us in and out, unfortunately I didn't catch his name, was very helpful and still offered us breakfast even though we were too late. A lovely hotel.
