So, in order, the four of us went, arrived at the hotel at about 20:45 at the reception, they offered to leave the suitcases in the lobby and run for dinner, because it is until 21:00, and then check out. We did just that (by the way, no one is kicked out of dinner at 21:00, all the staff serve "until the last client", they just don't let anyone in after 21:00). After dinner, we went to the reception and we were settled at the same minute (there was a Russian-speaking girl behind the reception desk). Russians are apparently settled on the 4th floor, because we were settled there, as well as newly arrived tourists. The guide from TUI was at the hotel every day (I know complaints about other tour operator guides who do not appear at all) and was always happy to prompt and help.

As for the location of the hotel, I found it to be perfect. Bus station 3 min. walk (from there you can go to Barcelona, ​ ​ Girona, Tossa, etc. , etc. ). Stop from which take away on excursions in 1 min. walk from the hotel (opposite OLIMPIA RENT A CAR - they rent cars there).

Sea in 5-7 min. walk through the streets with shops and snacks. Disco street 4 min. walk, but at the same time the hotel is located so that violent Germans and pretty drunk Russians hanging out at the disco and near you can not hear!

Meals: We took breakfast and dinner. For breakfast: scrambled eggs (when scrambled), various sausages, sliced ​ ​ sausages (several types), cheeses (several types), chicken mcnuggets (or the same thing, but not chicken, but cheese), yogurts, various buns, cookies, quick breakfasts (cereals with milk, etc. ), fruits, milkshakes, juices, teas, coffee, champagne. Everyone will find something for themselves, you won't go hungry. For dinner: chicken, meat (in different interpretations), salads (types of 4-5), french fries, paella, fried, fresh, pickled vegetables, sausages, mussels (not always), shrimp (not always), buns, yogurts , ice cream, fruits (3-4 types per day, but change with frequency: apples, pears, oranges, apricots, peaches, nectarines, kiwi, watermelon, melon, pineapple).
In general, everything is also in abundance and everything is fresh. Drinks for dinner, as well as for lunch - PAID! ! ! It's like that everywhere in Spain.

Service: at the reception, a Russian-speaking girl, as I already wrote, will tell you, help. Cleaning is daily, everything is clean in the rooms. Our guide in def. the clock is in place (it’s always easy to buy a tour, and just ask something). The staff is smiling and not pushy. There is Wi-Fi (paid, except for premium rooms).

In the room (standard): one double bed and two shifted one and a half (xs why), a TV from my grandmother's time: ) with two Russian. channels (lead 24 and 1 in my opinion), a table, 3 bedside tables, a wardrobe, a mirror, shelves. In the bathroom: a bath with a shower, a sink, a toilet, a trouble, a mirror, a hair dryer, towels (5 pieces), well, there are gels, shampoos.

The hotel has 2 elevators (there is never a queue to go up or down). There are computers in the lobby, again you can get into the Internet (for a fee). There is a swimming pool, I saw it briefly, I never swam (I didn’t have time for it).

There is a vending machine with drinks (2 euros - 0.5 cola, sprite, fanta; there is something else, but I don’t remember). There is a room for luggage (for example, you leave for the airport at 13:00, and check-out takes place at 10:00, so you can leave your luggage in the luggage room for 3 hours and walk), there are also toilet rooms (because after checking out you will not be allowed).

Now a little about the various trips: we were in Tossa de Mar, it is 20 minutes. drive from Lloret (in Spanish Lloret), pts. a picturesque town, there is a castle-fortress Vila Vella (city of romantics). We visited Girona (about 1 hour to go). The main attractions of Girona are concentrated in its historical center, in the eastern part of the city, which is surrounded by a fortress wall preserved from ancient times. In Girona, you can also do good shopping. The main trip is Barcelona. It is unrealistic to cover all the sights of Barcelona in one trip (choose the most interesting for you).
You can get from Lloret to Barca in 2 ways: 1) from Lloret to Blanes (about 20 minutes) by bus, then by train from Blanes to Barcelona (the bus will bring you directly to the station where the trains run). It takes about an hour to drive from Blanes to Barcelona, ​ ​ but + in the fact that the train travels along the coast, you will admire the beauties (we liked this option more). And by the way, the train will bring you directly to Plaza Catalunya (the center of Barcelona). Price - 13.9 euros (round trip) 2) from Lloret to Barcelona (about 1-1.1 hours) by bus and it will bring you north of Plaza Catalunya, you can reach the square on foot min. for 20, probably. Price - 20 euros (round trip). 2 excursion routes (red and blue) depart from Plaza Catalunya, each of them is lucky according to the definition. attractions, the bus has a type of radio in the cat.
you plug in your headphones (they will be given to you when you buy a ticket for this bus) and, having tuned in to the desired language, listen to the information about the approaching sights. At each stop of this bus, you can get off and look at whatever you want, and then from the landing site you will sit on the trail. bus of this route (free of charge) and proceed to the next. Attraction.


You can write about this trip indefinitely, I seem to have outlined the most basic, there will be questions - contact me! Have a good trip everyone! ! !
