Aparthotel Palamós - Palamós, Girona

Studio S.

We stayed at this hotel for a week as a family.
It’s a calm and pleasant place, well suited for a relaxed family holiday.
Breakfast and dinner were generally good, with enough variety for everyone.
The location is great - just a short walk to a clean beach and clear sea.
Shops, restaurants, and a local fish market are all nearby, which was very convenient.
Overall, we had a nice stay. Thank you.

Position of the hotel was great, 5 minutes walk to the beach & 10 minutes to town. Hotel was clean & apartment was more than adequate. No kettle but we used the coffee maker when we wanted tea. Didn't use the restaurant so cannot comment, although decor feels like a school canteen but that's my personal opinion. PARKING - you will drive round & round for a parking space, they are like gold dust. We managed to park at the rear of the large supermarket at top of road (approx 8 minutes walk). Ona charge €20-25 per day which I wasn't prepared to pay & I think they should make clear on their website (although they never had space when we were there. Overall we would stay here again.

I had a great stay at Ona Palamós. The service was excellent, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. A special mention to El Houssaini at the reception – he was incredibly professional, attentive, and made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. He also gave us great recommendations for the best beaches and local restaurants, which made our trip even more enjoyable. His kindness and efficiency really stood out. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to come back!

We stayed 2 weeks in Palamos ona hotel and this is our 4th stay here.
Love the location and the beach is clean and easy acces for children with nice views. Iff you go to the right side towards calonge there are nice small coves to see and to explore.
Rooms are clean and the crew is cleaning proparly! The rooms are noisy wich is the only thing i can say.
After 23.00 we did not hear anything so that is good!
Food in the morning i give 5 stars.
Food in the evening is not bad however i am missing some finesse sometimes butt 4 stars is a good result!
Crew in generely are very nice and we will be back again for sure!

Looking at previous reviews I think the first thing to realize is this is not your typical 3 or 4 star hotel. It's more serviced apartment rooms so the typical amenities and cleaning rotation is different. If you go with the right expectations ( which I think we did) then you'll have a good stay. Notable positives. Location, location location. But right now the entire beach frontage is a massive construction zone. Piles of concrete, dust and fences. This is obviously not the hotel's fault just an FYI for those staying here in the coming months/year. But get to the walking path and head into town (10 mins) and there's a lot to do/see/eat/drink. Saturday nights are very busy. Shout out to the ladies at La Fleca coffee and pastry/bread shop two blocks up the street and around the corner. We were there every morning. Cant say anything about the breakfast or dinner at the hotel, We didn't eat there. Too many other options in town and elsewhere. The Pool is big and nice enough. Rooms and bathrooms are nice, basic and clean. AC worked well and it was needed. Bed was comfortable enough. Shout out to the desk staff. They were very nice, helpful and as accommodating as possible. (Suggestion to add plastic cups for the beer taps so guests can take a drink to the pool). Also they recommended going to Caldes de Malavella train station to park overnight for free when we went to Barcelona and it was an excellent suggestion. Now a few more things to consider. Again not necessarily the Ona's fault but the parking is non-existent in terms of dedicated to the hotel. You'll do circles around the one way streets until you find an open spot (that isn't yellow or blue marked). We always found a spot but it always felt like a gamble as to which street would have a spot we could squeeze into. If you rent a car, get as small as you comfortably can. The pool was nice but there wasn't a bar open and they don't allow glass in the pool area so bringing in a beer or other fun drinks was a no. They didn't have plastic cups to offer. Need a bottle opener? Gotta ask at the desk. Need more towels? Ask at the desk. There are not separate shampoo/conditioner/soap supplied. No real bar soap. Just a pump of all in one. If you're a guy like me with limited hair care needs then no big deal. If you're like my wife and prefer decent shampoo and conditioner either pack your preferred products or hit the supermarket up the street. (5 mins away and we got what we needed inexpensively). As noted in previous reviews cleaning isn't daily. If you stay longer than 3 days your room is cleaned or a week it's half way through. Fine with us but I knew that going in. I can't say the cleaning was spotless but was fine, we're not fussy. All in all it was a great stay. I'd recommend it with a couple of caveats. Not sure I'd stay any longer than a week. But an excellent location to base for exploring Costa Brava.

Unfortunately, the pictures of the hotel website do not show the reality.

I stayed with my family for 9 days, expecting a decent hotel. Unfortunately we left very disappointed:
- personnel unfriendly and rude at reception,
- I had to repeat my request for basic things like towels several times to get it done,
- the shower was broken so it would fall each time,
- shower water would be either burning or super cold,
- the bathroom smelled horrible all the time, even after cleaning,
- cleaning is done only every 3 days! And they forgot to clean the second time, not to mention that the room was not really fully cleaned,
- the swimming pool is facing another apartment building, and it is so close that there is no privacy at all,
- the sleeping couch was broken,
- this hotel is called "aparthotel" while it is only rooms, squeezed to make they seem apartments,
- last but not least, the reception employees are not consistent with policy. When I asked whether one more guest could be added to the room for a night, one employee told me it was possible. A couple of days later the guest arrived and I was told by another employee that the guest could not stay. Not only were they disrespectful, they did not offer any solution or took responsibility for the problem they caused to the new guest.

If you are considering this hotel, there is plenty of alternatives in Costa Brava. So better look elsewhere.

This hotel enjoys a fantastic location right next to the beach. It’s just a 5-minute walk to a large supermarket and about 10 minutes to the city centre, which makes it very friendly for travellers who like to explore on foot.
It is also extremely welcoming for families with children. In particular, Andrés from the Animation Team was incredibly kind and attentive. When he found out that my daughter had missed the face painting activity due to a schedule change, he offered to organise a small face painting session for her in his own free time. Although it was clear that face painting was not his speciality, he still took the initiative to help and made sure the children were happy.
On top of that, he regularly hosted activities by the pool and helped create a lively and welcoming atmosphere for all of the gue
