Hotel silenzioso ed in posizione ottima, vicino alla stazione ferroviaria ed al porto. Camera silenziosa e pulita ogni giorno
RichardSmall, friendly and good value.
Small friendly hotel with a nice breakfast. Rooms are small but well maintained. No lift and showers have a step to access so might be tricky for people with limited mobility. Also note that it is at the bottom of a hill…

Questions about Catalunya Express
What time is check-in and check-out at Catalunya Express?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Catalunya Express allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is breakfast included at Catalunya Express?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Catalunya Express have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Catalunya Express have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Catalunya Express?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Catalunya Express?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
