Location was good with beach a stones throw away and rooms were kept clean. However food was cold and bland so we ate out a lot.. breakfast was a bit better than evening meal. When we checked in there were no towels in the room and spilt ice cream from the last guest on the balcony. We were told we had to move rooms mid stay then given the wrong key several times necessitating running up and downstairs 3 times late at night with a young child. Then the next morning when we eventually did move we were told we didn’t have to after all and we had to return to the original room. Such a faff and staff weren’t helpful. Electricity went out one night too.. Check in also took forever and it seemed there was constantly a huge queue at reception so it was tricky to get the multiple issues we had resolved. Very small amount of food on offer for a large number of guests meant it was always cold by the time you queued up/waited for everything (microwave was there for this purpose which said a lot) and the staff started clearing food away 15 mins before end of service times and actually pointed at their watches and told a group of elderly women to leave at 10am etc. very rude. We found Meal times were awful to be honest with the lack of tasty warm food and queues and general Hectic feeling of it all. Felt sorry for AI guests. Location was great but any hotel along the long sea front had the beach etc, wouldn’t recommend this hotel sadly, in our opinion it was not 4 star quality.

Everything from the room to the staff was great! Good views of the beach, good size pool with lots of beds and brollys. I have nothing to complain about, even the buffet changed every night so good selection

Prior to arrival I requested a double bed and got 2 separate beds. I asked the reception for king sheets and they quickly came and made one big bed for us. I appreciated that. Bed was comfortable, and room was clean. The view from the room was awesome. Lunch and dinner are ok, could have been better. Think it would have been better if they cooked more regional meals. Staff was super friendly and professional, and there was entertainment every night. Overall we had a great stay.

We have now stayed at this Hotel 3 times it is very modern inside and spotless the pool area is ideal and plenty sunbeds on two levels only issue on this visit was that the promenade outside the front had all been ripped up and was under construction but we heard no noise or disturbance so I would not let this put people off as in a couple of months it will be finnished and it is the first section to be done so it should be amazing.

Perfect Hotel (but read payment comments)
Nothing to add that you will find in other reviews. Had a great stay but..….check and check again about the payment of the invoice. First time I have booked with Expedia and my contract gave me a cost in euros and the conversion rate in sterling. Nothing too complicated about that, however when the final cost was taken from my account it included an "Exchange Rate Mark-Up of 4.75%" I have queried this with the Hotel and Expedia and they show no interest other than telling me it's not their concern. I tried to pay the total amount quoted before I stayed but it was not allowed. Clearly, based on the experience with this hotel (and Expedia) they are now on my black list. The "Retail Dispute Team" of my bank have withheld the payment and tell me that this is "wrong" and it will be sorted. We all spend time abroad, in Hotels, and generally without this problem. I say again "CHECK & CHECK" again because this is a one-off that I have not experienced before and if it happens to you far too much time will be needed fighting your corner

Spanish Grand Prix week.
Stayed here when over for the Spanish Grand Prix. Well situated, Rooms very spacious and comfortable beds. Staff are excellent and went out of their way to give me directions to the race course. Food wasn't always the warmest but I always got something to suit the pallet. Overall a nice hotel and I would go back again.

Lovely hotel
Lovely hotel directly opposite the beach, which is accessed by an underpass. The rooms are very small, with a large modern shower room. The hotel is immaculate throughout & the rooms are modern. The food was of good quality, although not a great deal of choice for vegetarians. Breakfast had a huge choice of food, including strawberries & pink champagne, cooked breakfast, yoghurts, breads, fruits & cold meats. There are a large amount of shops and some restaurants on the street outside the hotel & you can walk along to santa susanna. Malgrat itself is a bit scruffy, but the beach was clean. Lovely hotel for a decent price & would definitely recommend.

Amazing hotel stay, highly recommended!!!
Our stay was really good. We enjoyed every minute of it! The location of the place is strategically placed, accessible to shops, restaurants, train and most of all walking distance to the beach. The hotel buildings are behind the shops in the pedestrian area and there's a small clean alleyway going towards the reception. The hotel was clean inside and out. The staff were very nice, pleasant and helpful. The facilities were good too. Their entertainment and bar area were sociable too. We've met people from the UK, everyone seemed to be enjoying and relaxing themselves. While we were there, we've explored Barcelona and Tossa de Mar which were withing 2 hours travel from the area. Combined tickets could be bought from the Rodalies train station. I highly recommend the hotel, we've been treated like a valued customer. On our last night, they celebrated Tourist Day, sangria and cava are offered for free the whole dinner. They served special dishes too. Only thing that didn't make us comfortable was the bed, it was 2 single beds instead of a double bed. We didn't make a big fuss out of it because the whole experience was good anyway. It could have been mentioned to the staff. Overall experience, highly recommended hotel.

Excellent hotel.with fantastic hospitality. Great sundecks. Food throughout the day.and of high quality. Drinks on the All inc....again good quality. Only slight downside is the all inc starts at 11am.....so no fresh coffee or bottled water given to guests. Also could do with another quiet lounge in an evening....the music and games not to all tastes.

Es war im grossen und ganzen ein angenehmer Aufenthalt. Hatten ein kleines Zimmer, aber es war alles vorhanden was nötig war. Ich würde mir persönlich wünschen, dass es auf dem Balkon einen Wäscheständer hätte. Reinigungspersonal ist stets bemüht alles ordentlich zu machen. Toll fanden wir,dass wir bei gebuchter HP das Abendessen auch aufs Mittagessen tauschen konnten. Rezeption ist 24/7 besetzt und man fühlt sich sicher. Abends am Pool wurde immer ein anderes Musikprogramm angeboten. Für gross und klein.

Populært feriehotell
Stort og fint hotell med god frokost! Fin beliggenhet nært stranden og sentrum. Ikke så fristende å benytte svømmebassenget, da det som oftest var fullt av barn og ungdom som lekte med ball og gjentatte ganger hoppet ut i vannet.

A modern, clean hotel with a great location near the beach. Me, my husband and our 15 year old daughter stayed at the hotel for 16 days and we were very happy about our stay. The staff was super friendly and service minded and always smily. We stayed at the building next to the reception and this was a bit more quiet than in front of pool. We had half pension (breakfast and dinner) but we were able to choose lunch instead of dinner whenever we wanted to so we ended up doing this. All eating/buffet is indoor so we wanted to have dinner outside and Malgrat de Mar had many good restaurants to choose from. Breakfast has everything you want and there are show cooking where you can order pancakes, omelets and eggs. The buffet has yoghurt, fresh fruit, granola and bread. They serve free cava and wine at the breakfast. Lunch buffet is also good and there is a lot of options every day. Since it’s indoor it is quite noisy so would appreciate the ability to sit outside. There is a very small gym with a very few options. Our daughter bought a 10 day membership at a nearby gym for 50€. The cleaning is top notch and we had a lot of clean towels every day. Unfortunately there are no coffee or tea options in the rooms but since we read that in advance we brought a kettle and coffee from home which worked out fine. Air condition was very good and the bed sheets were surprisingly comfortable and good.

El personal muy amable y atento, sobre todo en el bar y las dos chicas de recepción de la noche, sobre todo la responsable, muy profesional ya qué fuimos a mostrar una queja sobre la comida y nos atendieron compre diendo nuestro malestar. Entramos para le cena y se nos desmoronó toda la buena imagen qué tuvimos hasta entonces. Una comida muy básica y nada qué ver con un ****. De primeros ensaladas básicas con quesos "variados" en los qué sólo había uno verde durante todo el rato qué estuvimos en el comedor. De segundos, patatas fritas, ternera helada, dura y se notaba qué recalentada, champiñones de lata, coliflor y poco más, postres muy básicos también, nada caseros, mi marido no cenó absolutamente nada.En el rincón de plancha, cordero y pescado. Al día siguiente el desayuno algo mejor y la comida nada especial tampoco. No se corresponde para nada con platos de 4*. Es una pena qué al final te vayas con esta mala imagen porque el resto está bastante bien para ir de fin de semana. Mi consejo: mejoren los menús e inviertan más en calidad. Uno espera comer algo más de lo qué puedes encontrar en cualquier bar de menú de 12€. Gracias
