Search hotels in Malgrat de Mar

I first visited the area in 2004 on a coach tour, I've now been there four times including the coach tour. Twice I stayed at the same property near the train station and this last time the other end of town close to Santa Susanna. I don't plan on going back in the foreseeable future but I would recommend anyone going to that area. If you have a car visit Tossa de Mar, very picturesque and a lovely drive through the mountains. Calalla is cheaper for food than Malgrat de Mar.

Two cities are very near from the Malgrat de Mar. The Botanical garden in Blanes is very beautiful & offers stunning view of the rocky sea side. The Castle in the Tossa de Mar is also must visiting attraction. A boat ride with glass bottom gives glimpse of sea bed & it takes into the caves formed over the millions of years.

When we first arrived we didn’t know that the train line runs straight past the hotels, no all only on the main street, as we arrived late at night. Nor did we know that if you have a transfer they drop you off in the street and have to use the subway to reach some hotels, ours being one. You really must ask for detailed directions from the driver as our first driver didn’t, just said down there nor did he tell us where to go for our return journey. Saying that having the train line in front of our hotel we didn’t hear them much and they don’t go on all night. We have just returned from our 3rd trip so it hasn’t put us off! This time we used a taxi as it turned out around the same price as a transfer but we went from Girona airport, which is closer, straight out the airport and straight into a taxi and dropped off right outside hotel. Nice shops, restaurants, bars and a train station. Train cost around 10 euros to Barcelona. There is a vegan restaurant in the old town. Found Malgrat de Mar to be a friendly place to be in. We stayed in an adult only hotel so can’t really comment on entertainment for children. We did see large inflatables in the sea though don’t know how old children have to be to us them. There is quite a bit of graffiti, which is a shame as our first reaction was shock but we got past that once we had a look round. It’s not party central but does have the bars that I could only wish I got ID for! We went to a bar called Champions, which families use and the younger ones use as a start off point. Just down from there is a tobacconist where you can also exchange your money. Hope this was of some use.

We went for 4 days organised by a others I personally wouldn’t pick the resort again because I drive for work this place is is really far from Barcelona airport that renting a car was the just another expense that and an hours drive then parking not ideal for our hotel , taxi costs € 155 from Barcelona and the same back although if don’t mind trains and public transport it’s a lot cheaper but do research routes etc as they take longer . The beach isn’t great , man made and very stoney and not enjoyable for casual use , local food was good though

Some nice bars and a few restaurants but not masses of choice.. lots of graffiti everywhere even on the trains! It was a little bit smelly in places. I preferred Blanes and would travel there next time.

I very much liked the room I was given at the top of the hotel with private terrace and beautiful views. The food and drinks were good and reasonable. the flooding on Friday night of the lobby area was an experience to remember, but overall it was a good stay. Too bad I was alone there to attend a wedding. It would have been even nicer if I had someone to share it with, but it was within walking distance to the venue for the beach wedding so really worked out well.
