Apartments and Hotels

Our wedding planner Elise from http://www.barcelonawedding.com/ went to Sitges last week to check out some apartments and hotels for us. (Thanks Elise!)

Apartments:

These apartments were her favourite option. The apartments she saw were really lovely, spacious, well decorated and well located. Many have terraces and some look straight out to the beach. All bookings with this company can be made over the internet or you can call Brian (English) or Ryan (Canadian).

When booking online, please put "Barcelona Wedding" in the comments section, and mention it when booking over the phone, so that they will know this is our wedding group staying with them. They have about 47 apartments on their books.

Most apartments should be no more than 10 minutes walk to the church or centre of Sitges. Apartments looking over the beach will obviously be priced higher than the rest.

It's still quite busy in Sitges at the end of September (there's a film festival this time of year), so book early to avoid disappointment!

Hotels:
This hotel is arguably the best in Sitges. However, like much of the accommodation on the beach, the price is quite high. Midweek, it costs about Eur145 per night for a double room, and more again on the weekend. For reservations at the San Sebastian, contact me for an access code/IATA code which will mean you will receive the best possible tariff for your room bookings and a discount on any bar drinks during your stay. Follow the above link for booking. We have seen a couple of the rooms and they really are lovely. Ask for a beach view though!

El Xalet:
A really good budget option, especially if you like something a bit different. Rooms are basic but clean and nice. It is a period property built at the height of the Modernista movement, with all the original features from the period. The location is perfect, a minute's walk from the station, 5 minutes to the beach through the narrow winding streets.
It is great value for money: Eur55 per night for a single and Eur90 for a double. Don't stay here if you want the standard 4/5 star service but do stay here if you want a comfortable retreat, in the authentic style of the region, close to everything and at a very reasonable price. Reception staff are reportedly not very friendly but hey you get what you pay for!
I don't have a phone number for them, if anyone has got one, will you post it in the comments?



Parrots is a good basic option, quite gay so maybe not up everyone's street! It has recently been renovated to a high standard. Location is really excellent, a couple of blocks from the beach and beside all the action in Sitges. Stay here for location, service, cleanliness and cost. Don't stay here for room size, charm.

A double should cost about Eur80 per night.

I will post some more information about the hotels again. Check out reviews on Tripadvisor.com. If there's somewhere else you're thinking of staying, post a comment and let everyone else know. Shop around for the best prices. I quite like Venere.com.

Remember, most hotels in Sitges are within walking distance of all the action!
