Lugar espectacular
La ubicación
El desayuno es un abuso, pues cobran 20€ al saber que no hay ningún sitio cerca para desayunar. Nunca vamos ya que algunos en la familia toman un café con leche y poco más, y no queremos pagar 20€ por eso.…

Very relaxed, beautiful building, excellent location, friendly staff - a lovely stay
Very good breakfast with excellent choice of food. Coffee not great
Detail in room - some plug sockets didn’t work and sliding door not great. Didn’t spoil the holiday though

That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.

Questions about Hostal Empúries

What time is check-in and check-out at Hostal Empúries?

Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:00 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Hostal Empúries allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Hostal Empúries?

Yes — parking is available on site at a charge the property sets. We check the rate and whether a space can be reserved against your dates.

Does Hostal Empúries have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Can I book a block of rooms at Hostal Empúries?

The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.

Does Hostal Empúries 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 Hostal Empúries?

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 Hostal Empúries?

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.
