Pros
  • The location is ideal for being in the center of historic Begur, and the hotel is a restored colonial house from 1800. 
  • Enjoy the hotel's many charming corners, including its restored library with comfy sofas and books in multiple languages.
  • The hotel is particularly quiet, thanks to its historic build and the fact that it only hosts 12 rooms.
  • Enjoy a delicious, homey breakfast buffet each morning on the patio and grab a drink from the honesty bar in the evenings. 
Cons
  • The rooms are generally very simple (though done purposefully to uphold the history of the building), and the standard rooms are a bit small, so you might want to upgrade for more space. 

Authenticity

You'll stay in a charming 19th-century colonial house in Begur's Old Town. The building has been fully restored and maintains its authentic charm with details like high ceilings, stone archways, and original tile floors.

Location

If you want to be in the center of the action, Cluc Hotel is an excellent choice. You'll be right down the street from Torre de Sant Ramon, which connects with the staircase leading up to Begur Castle. A quick 8-minute walk will get you to the top, and you'll pass the Mirador de Sant Ramon observation deck along the way. The coast with beaches and hiking trails is just over 10 minutes away by car, and you can visit the medieval hilltop town of Pals in 12 minutes. 

Rooms & Bathrooms

Rooms are comfortable yet simple by nature, as this historic hotel upholds the property's original appeal. Enjoy antique and restored furnishings, wooden window shades, authentic tile floors, and high ceilings with chandeliers. The standard rooms are a little cramped and feel darker with smaller windows, so you might prefer a double room for more space and light. Bathrooms are small and simple but modern. 

Other Highlights

The morning spread is the highlight, served on one of the outdoor patios (in good weather) or in a cozy dining area. You'll find locally sourced and homemade goods using all-natural ingredients—favorites are the cakes and jams. You can also relax on the two patios during the day or in the library, with its comfy furnishings, work table, and a wall of books in numerous languages.
