Malgrat de Mar Hotel Guide - Kite & Paddel Surf Center Catalunya hotels in Malgrat de Mar, Spain.

"Clean hotel and friendly staff. "

"Clean room, friendly staff. Close to th sea."

"The hotel is stunning — spacious, modern rooms, great bars and restaurants, and a fantastic pool area. However, there are a few drawbacks: there’s no beach access (areal photos are misleading), and frequent corporate events with loud music often go on until midnight, which can spoil the atmosphere. The breakfast buffet is extensive, but the quality doesn’t fully match a true 5-star standard. Overall, an impressive place, just not ideal if you’re after quiet relaxation."

"Nice compact room."

"We stayed for 5 nights at the end of September and were pleasantly surprised after reading mixed reviews. We booked mainly for the splash park, knowing our 4-year-old would love it — and she did! The pools were clean, there were always sunbeds available, and the splash park was brilliant for little ones. We were full board, and the food exceeded expectations for the price. There was always fresh, varied food being cooked — great salads, fruits, veg, and changing evening dishes. Dessert options weren’t huge but always included ice cream, which my daughter loved. We didn’t use the hotel bars, but queues looked long at times. Our rooms were fine but small for three people, especially compared to our family member’s larger single room. There were some signs of wear and tear, but the lobby and pool areas look recently renovated and well cared for. The only downside was some rowdy guests — including a late-night incident where staff avoided calling police to protect the hotel’s reputation. I felt they should have prioritised guests’ safety. Overall, for the price we paid, it was a great family break — clean, fun, and far better than expected. "

"Kids pool was not open"

"The room was small for 4. Beds blocked the wardrobe. There was a double balcony but the entrance to half of it was blocked by a fake wall. It was noisy, with the balcony overlooking the neighbouring hotel with loud air conditioning units. The pool was nice and there was free parking nearby. It was a short walk to restaurants and the beach. Breakfast was good but the staff were militant about taking a pastry out if the dining room with me, literally chasing after me to shout at me. "

"The hotel is ok, more senior crowd. My concerns: the bed in my room was broken. The manager upgraded our room but the shower drain in the new room was clogged and remained clogged throughout our stay, even though we made several maintenance requests. Showering was a creative art. "

"Hotel Papi is a charming mini resort that made for a great family stay. Our children enjoyed exploring the safe grounds, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. There were daily activities for both kids and adults, and karaoke night was especially fun, with everyone handed a microphone to sing along. The rooms were clean, but the beds were quite small for a family of four (three adults and a child). Thankfully, we had booked two rooms, which made our stay much more comfortable, and it was still a great value. Note that two full-size beds are pushed together to form a king, so space can feel tight. The balcony faced other buildings rather than the pool, but it was fine. The front desk staff were helpful and provided great local tips. Breakfast was a highlight, with both fresh and pre-made options, a great way to start the day. The beach nearby was rocky, making it difficult to get in and out of the water. Much of the coastline seemed to be the same. We took a short metro ride, about 10 minutes, to San Pol, a beautiful nearby beach town that felt like an oasis. The hotel is about two hours from Barcelona’s El Prat Airport (BCN), and a taxi costs around $250. We opted for the metro, which was tiring but gave us a more local experience. Hotel Papi wasn’t crowded and attracted both locals and international guests. If you’re looking for a relaxing stay outside the hustle of Barcelona, we definitely recommend it."
