Why so chic?
Why travel experts chose this hotelChic Treats
Only when you book with ChicFor a romantic, atmospheric Catalonian escape, you need to look no further than the Hotel Gran Claustre. In the town centre of the charming medieval town of Altafulla, this boutique hotel occupies an historic 18th-century building surrounding a cool, picturesque courtyard and a new modern extension. This Chic Retreat has 39 chic and stylish rooms, a spa and an award-winning restaurant, and is one of the finest boutique hotels in the north-east of Spain, that welcomes both couples and family groups. Please note that pets are not permitted at Hotel Gran Claustre.
Dining
In centuries past, the 'Bruixes de Burriac', or the Witches of Burriac, kept villagers in a constant state of fear with their curses. Today, they lend their name to the much less scary, but no less enchanting restaurant at Le Gran Claustre. Heading the kitchen is Jaume Druidis, acclamed local chef, who combines traditional recipes with the very freshest produce to artfully express the traditions of the region through flavours and aromas.
We love how you can watch the chefs at work in the kitchen from the dining room. If you want to get right up close to the action, there is a chef's table, allowing you to take in all the passion and drama! The restaurant has a cellar that showcases excellent local and Spanish wines, with the very best of international wines making a strong appearance.

The décor is contemporary and minimalist, with touches of bright colour such as playfully painted ceiling beams and artistic prints. Bathrooms are equipped with showers, bathtubs or hydromassage tubs.
Activities
We can't begin to talk about the activities on offer at the Hotel Gran Claustre without mentioning the Gran Claustre Spa. Alongside the delights of the sauna and the steam baths, each incorporating aromatherapy, you can indulge in an invigorating cava oil massage or bamboo therapy. The pool sits in a secluded spot where you can float your worries away and there's plenty of shade from the heat of the midday sun.
If you are looking to be active, the hotel can organise almost anything - hiking, cycling, golf, horseriding, segway tours, diving, watersports and boat trips. Ask about wine tours to the cellars and enotecas of Tarragona - a great way to spend an afternoon.
For those who love to wander, the beach is just one kilometre away and taxis can easily be arranged to take you there. The town of Altafulla itself is worth visiting and just 15 minutes away is Tarragona, a wonderful gem of a city that combines history, hip boutiques and the best of Spanish food and wine.

The rustic old-town charm is only outdone by the modern interior design.This Hotel is located in the center of the old town of Alta Fulla in close proximity to some of the major local sight-seeing spots. The sandy beach is about a 15 min downhill walk away. The Hotel itself is split in 2 parts separated by a narrow pedestrian alley each containing guestrooms. The in-house restaurant and spa can be found on one side of the street, whereas the sheltered pool area and the rooftop hot-tub can be found across the alley. All the wellness areas are well maintained and beautifully designed to shelter the guests in comfort. The view from the rooftop hot-tub stretches for miles and makes the 25EUR/hour reservation fee very worthwhile. An hour in the spa area costs 5,50EUR and is normally shared with other guests (not during COVID period). This fee includes 1h use of all spa facilities: heated whirlpool, cooled pool, steam sauna, Finnish sauna, ice-fountain and rain showers. Money well-spent!The spacious outdoor Restaurant also used for the breakfast is located 20m up the street. The area is walled in and open to the sky. The design is coherent and fits well with the old-town charm of Alta Fulla. The selection for breakfast is vast and delicious and a definite recommendation to include in any stay at this hotel.The in-house upscale restaurant offer 5 course meals and was easily one of our highlights on this trip. The staff exceeded expectations and the meals were creative and incorporated mostly native cosine.The rooms are designed in a modern style using aged wood as to not disconnect the guests from the antique exterior. AC and cleanliness are top notch! The bathroom was very spacious and could easily be called a room in and of itself. Sadly this place was also where we experienced the only downside of our stay here: the ventilation of this spacious bathroom was insufficient and caused moisture to build up quickly which in turn made the room smell moldy. We informed the staff and were ensured this was an exception and would be remedied.Overall this Hotel is very recommendable to escape the stress of daily life and have a spot of seclusion to recharge your inner batteries.

The first room we was offered was up in the attic no views. The 2nd was a little better but red which made it dark inside & the lamps were dark no good if you want to read in bed. There was no hydrimassage bath. The bed was hard too.
