Pigal

We loved our hotel owners, Xabi and his gracious wife who were both very accommodating, knowledgeable and great hosts. Both the young gentlemen who manned the desks were equally helpful and kind. The staff were very good and always greeted us with lovely smiles and were eager to help where they could. The venue was in a great position. Close to the centre, close to the beach, the train station and an 8- min walk to the bus terminal. What more can one ask for? As for this small personable hotel - It has an eclectic mixture of antique furniture and shabby chic pieces with a huge Roman centurion standing in the dining room with a huge welcoming smile. The facilities are really exceptional. Residents are encouraged to bring their meals to the dining room tables where the hotel offers all crockery, cutlery, microwave, toaster, kettle, tea on tap, a great coffee vending machine (yep, only €1 for a capuccino!) and a soft drinks and beer vending machine as well. Residents can use a space in the large refridgerator to keep their food and use stickers for them to mark their food parcels. No, no need to wash your plates either...just leave them in a tray for a hotel staff to wash. Happiness is... We loved our 11-night stay at this cute, eccentric hotel in the hart of Tarragona and we found it to be very reasonable and believe me...it had a hart! We recomend this without reservtion and will happily go back to stay again!

- Xavier at reception was lovely and gave me a lot of information on Tarragona! - Good position, a short walk from everything you want to see - There is a dining area with everything you need to eat in case you get takeaway or get some food at the store

Short version - Stay here!! The owners, and all the staff if amazing, it feels like you’re around family all the time. Long version - I arrived at Hotel Pigal being very sick, and the owners took care of me straight away. It can be scary being sick when you’re in a foreign country; but the made me feel so safe and taken care of. Once I recovered I was meant to keep on traveling, but I loved my stay at Hotel Pigal so much that I just stayed! The city is amazing as well and they were always available to ask for recommendations on different things. The hotel is in a great location, very short walk to the port, beach and center, and again the staff is amazing and goes above and beyond for you, and the rooms are super nice as well. I cannot recommend this place enough. Special shoutout to Xavi who owns this hotel with his wife, he always made sure I was ok, and I’m going to miss them both!

great location halfway between bus and train stations - short walk to either. quiet location in the middle of a sedate street with little traffic. comfortable bed. good wifi. large kitchen area. friendly staff.

This is an excellent budget hotel that offers much more than you’d expect. A simple, clean and cool room with comfortable bed and small balcony in our room. Use of food preparation area with everything needed to prepare and eat simple food. Coffee machine, and tea, fridge, toaster, microwave provided. A large table to sit and enjoy your meal. The check in was easy, we were greeted by the hosts who are super friendly, and they cannot do enough to make your stay a good one. Very informative with local knowledge, and we were given a map with local places of interest to visit. We were very happy with our stay and we thoroughly recommend to all.
