Hotel Pigal

This was a cost effective place for me to stay as I am traveling solo. The staff were very helpful and kind. Overall, I had a good experience here and would recommend it to a friend. Xavier was a legend.

The hotel is well-located for walking to the amazing cathedral as well as the marina.

Location perfect,

No AC Ants on floor Housekeeping didn’t get to clean room despite that being a policy Overall get what you pay for Xavier who greeted us was helpful and gave us map of area which was helpful. Very centrally located. Very basic accommodations and very affordable.

The staff were extremely kind and helpful with giving directions and interesting information about the area (thank you Hector!). The hotel is not fancy, but as it is an older building it has charming characteristics and it also felt safe. I greatly appreciated being able to use the common meal area for light meal prep and having somewhere to sit and eat breakfast in the morning. The hotel is an easy short walk from the inter-city bus station and is also a short walk to Playa de Miracle and the Rambla Nova/heart of the city.

Very friendly staff, easy check-in, the beds are very comfortable and the room cute. Will definitely return.

Maybe my favorite hotel ever. This hotel was perfect for me. If offers the ultimate combination of location, friendly and helpful staff, and value. I’m going to admit a little trepidation as it sits in a narrow alley at the border between the seedier part of town downhill and the historic center uphill, with its fantastic eating choices, clean streets, and noteworthy historic sites and buildings. Turns out a perfect location about equal distance to train, bus, and city center (all less than 15 minute walk). Staff went out of their way to outline the best walking tour and explain exactly how my bus to the AVE train station would work and cost (exact change is recommended). While they don’t offer a breakfast, they offer a 1 Euro coffee machine and a wonderful tabled area to store your own food, complete with shared fridge, plates, silverware, tea, and vending machine. A wonderful place to organize your papers or plan the next leg of your trip. My room was surprisingly large, with own bath. Very small shower, but lots of pressure and no shortage of hot water. I stayed two nights and Friday night was loud outside, but hey it’s Friday night in downtown and people are going to party a little. Quiet when it counted, between 1 and 5 and not too loud regardless if you are on the 3rd floor. I heard nothing from my neighbors, which makes me think they did a little soundproofing. Little things like loner umbrellas at the door and the Roman mascot made it special.

All the reception folks were awesome….I mostly dealt with Xavier and Hector. So helpful in suggesting the places to see. The hotel is walking distance to everything so very convenient. My room was quaint…I enjoyed it with the sweet balcony full of character. The bed, however was too hard for me. Also I guess a bar or two are close so folks would be talking loudly even at 3am so ea plugs were essential to get a good night sleep.

Super helpful and friendly staff that are very welcoming! Convenient location, walkable to everywhere.

Very nice stay and comfortable beds and nice bed sheets. The shower pressure was excellent. The attention was very nice and the hotel is near and convenient to the train station.

Very charming hostel style hotel with private rooms and a common area for coffee and snacks. Located in a commercial zone near sightseeing and beaches. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, we enjoyed our visit.

Very comfortable and friendly small hotel. Centrally located. Very happy with my choice and will stay again when i visit Tarragona

Nice Hotel & staff, especially the Manager Xavier

Like sleeping in a sauna. The fan worked on one speed, extremely slow mode.

The proprietor, Javier, went above and beyond to share things to do, places to eat, where to park, and the best beaches areas. His hospitality made us feel like we were honored guests in the city. Exceptional hospitality!

Friendly, informative proprietor with clean, comfortable rooms nearby sites and market.

I enjoyed how close it was to the historic part of town as well as the beach. They provided beach towels and an umbrella which was awesome. They were so helpful, friendly and tended to every need. The common area was very nice and the bed/pillows really comfortable. I only wish it had A/C but it did get cooler at nights so we left the balcony doors open.

We had an amazing stay!

The staff was lovely and incredibly helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here. The room is very reasonable for the price. The only drawback is an odd smell from the shower drain, but this didn’t have a significant impact on our experience!

Perfect location in city center, with public library and central market around the corner. Xavi was very helpful! It has a “communal kitchen” of sorts that made it feel like an upscale hostel (with private rooms), where you could meet others if you want. I had a single with my own bathroom 6 feet away in the main hall. Just fine.
