Guest reviews for Hostal de la Gavina GL - The Leading Hotels of the World

5 out of 5

A Grand Hotel

Pros: Quiet
A grand hotel, five star in all respects. The staff was helpful. Our room was large, comfortable and beautifully furnished. We loved our terrace and spent most of our evenings there, prior to going to dinner. We had dinner at the hotel, in the courtyard. The food was wonderful, the setting romantic. A wonderful experience. One note, our GPS had difficulty finding the hotel.
