We stayed here for 10 days on an all inclusive,the hotel is situated down a street,5 min walk from bus drop off,and next to the railway station. For us the train station was a added bonus as we intended using the train it goes all thee way down the coastline into Barcelona.... more

I felt obliged to leave a review after reading so many negative on other sites. People, its all inclusive, you are probably paying about £5 a day for 3 meals, snacks and drinks! Why are you expecting 5* cuisine? The food was edible, if you arent keen on whats on offer,... more

I'm going to break down this review as much as possible as I feel this hotel is worthy of it. To get to this hotel you have two choices of airports either Girona (that I used) or Barcelona I am told that if you get a Taxi from Girona you can expect to pay about 55 euros as... more

Just returned from the Sorra D'or Hotel holiday. Flew into Gerona with Ryanair and got a shuttle bus to the hotel. The bus drops you off at the Hotel Planamar and you have to turn round and walk back the way down the hill to the hotel. There are two lifts in the hotel and... more

We read other reviews before booking this holiday, and we hoped that we agreed with the majority of them, and we feel that we did. We thought that the hotel was great value for a 3 star, as did other guests we spoke to on our stay. It was a lot grander and more traditional... more

Great location
Basically if you are looking for a 3*, thats what you will get. I arrived back yesterday and had a lovely time. The hotel is situated right near the beach, It is near the railway station but that didnt bother us at all. The bus drops you off at the top of the street as it is mostly pedestrianised so wheels on your luggage is a must! The hotel is in the quieter part of the resort surrounded by a few shops, bars and restaurants. Im glad I was staying there and not on the sea front at the other end of the resort. The food was ok. There was always something we liked and didnt go hungry. Labels on the food would have been helpful as it wasnt always obvious what things were though! Most of the staff were nice. The restaurant staff were pleasant as were reception. The bar staff were ok, but being all inclusive in the evenings it was a bit of a nightmare getting a drink and the staff werent always polite. It was a bit noisy if you were staying in a room overlooking the pool as the hotel surrounds the pool and the noise has nowhere to go! I think though that it was down to a group of German youngsters who had been drinking all day and all night as apposed to the fault of the hotel. We moved rooms as I couldnt get to sleep and we had a room over looking the road. It wasnt ideal but it was quieter and actually we overlooked the roof tops and flowers so it wasnt all bad! If you get a room overlooking the sea, you're laughing as it was a wonderful view across the sea. The rooms over the Sorra D'or Bar at the side were also ok. A word of warning - the Sorra D'or Bar along the side of the hotel charge for your drinks it is not all inclusive. All inclusive drinks have to be obtained from the bar near the pool. The pool area isnt very big but we managed to find a bed every day and it was the end of July. We much preferred the beach though which is clean and you can get your all inclusive drinks (lager being the only alcohol drink you can get) from the Sorra D'or Beach Club situated on the beach which is handy. I would return to this hotel and recommend it as a 3*.
Youth Hostel
Only stayed in this hotel for one night, and not by choice, but that was enough. The place is extremely noisy, not just the trains but the guests as well. The food was disgusting and we walked out leaving full plates! The majority of guests are young and the whole feel of the place felt more like a youth hostel than a hotel. I will never stay here again!
dreadful food!
we have just returned from a short stay at this hotel. the location is great, and luckily we were given a top floor sea view room suitably high enough away from the continuous train noise. However, the food was terrible. Even the milk was unrefrigerated and salamis and hams sweaty and totally unappetising.Even though we were all inclusive, we dined out all the time.Our room wasnt cleaned everyday and I took our own bin out. Everywhere else was clean, but the swimming pool was very small and inadequate for the amount of guests. In summary, dispite being right by the beach, I wouldn't recommend this hotel.
Depends What you are Looking for
You do have to walk down a shopping street with suitcases from where you are dropped off from the Hopper bus, about 400 metres. Very close to the train station which is great for you to travel along the coast however if your room is over looking the train station then be prepared for the noise of passing trains from approx. 5am. I found the hotel to be particularly noisy with trains, people outside and other guests in the middle of the night. The hotel decor and rooms are good, and there is maid service each day. If there are more than 2 people in the room the addional bed(s) are best described as fold down sprung chairs. Also if there are more than 2 in a room there isn't additional seating put on to the verander, I guess there could of been if requested. The food: Breakfast was great no complaints, something for everyone. Other meals and snacks were ok, mixture of meats and fish at every serving. Big problem was that there was no labeling of the food so it was a guess everytime of what you were eating, very unnerving for restricted diets or conservative eaters, also the food was warm and not hot. The pool area is not manned by a life guard and there were very few sunbeds for the amount of people that are staying in the hotel. These were also not stacked away at night and additional tables and chairs made availabe to sit outside at night in the warm weather. There was no air conditioning in the hotel so sitting outside can be a necessity. Generally the hotel staff were friendly and helpful however one in particular, the head barman, did make the holiday very uncomfortable by consistently insisting we only got one drink at a time, per person re the All Inclusive. When in a group of 7 (aged from 10yrs to 66yrs) this became unreasonable and in another group there were 2 disabled ladies, who were drinking tea only. A complaint was made to the management but with no outcome. Overall the hotel was ok, would have been better if we had a room at the back of the hotel re the noise and the head barman was more friendly towards british women!!!!!!
Not returning
Just home from a week holiday. what i can say is the hotel is lovely and clean and a great location!! but there is not enough sunbeds round the pool area which isnt really that big. the food was all one sided i mainly lived off chips for a week as i dont eat fish, which was served every nite!! the drinks and service was good. but i wouldnt go back again
hated my stay the food was disgusting did not cater for the british if you were
did not think very highly of hotel food was terrible, door was broken to pool for two days staff not at all friendly unless german

Fantastic hotel in a very lovely town
We have just received from beautiful Malgrat de Mar. Honestly we didnt expect too much from this hotel but this hotel definitely exceeded our expectations! Lovely hotel just by a train station (not too loud, and you can get to Barcelona in 25 minutes). Hotel was almost empty, very quiet, mostly booked by Spanish people. Very nice staff, as we had late evening flight we booked late check out for just 19 Euros! Unbelievable! Nice, long beach and as there are not too many hotels in Malgrat de Mar it doesn't get busy (Santa Susanna beach is very busy - there are plenty hotels there) You can get a night life in Santa Sussana - I think there are about 6 big night clubs, there are plenty of restaurants and shops over there as well. It only gets about 10-15 minutes to walk there. If you dont want to walk - there is a small train every 30 minutes stopping just by the hotel. There is no air-con in rooms unfortunately and swimming pool is not too big but apart of that we think this hotel is a very, very good 3 star hotel. And again we had a brilliant deal and we definitely got what we paid for! We would recommend this hotel to everyone! One more thing - if you like pasta - there is a very nice restaurant D'Angelo just by the hotel.
Excellent!!
What a surprise, Old Spanish opulance, if this hotel had air conditioning it would be a good 4 star. However, other things make up for it, excellant food, nice staff and exeptionaly clean. We met Dutch, French, English couples who return year after year. The hotel is situated in the old town of Malgrat right next door to the station, for a few Euros you can visit any resort on the Costa Brava for a day trip. We will be back!! Mid 50's couple from Warwickshire.
