About Hostal La Fosca
Comment by Bravissima about Hostal La Fosca:
Hostal La Fosca is a cozy establishment located in a prime spot on the Costa Brava, right by the beachfront at Passeig de la Fosca, 24, CP 17230. Visitors highlight the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff, creating a welcoming, family-like atmosphere that makes guests feel at home.

EXCELLENT!!! Beautiful location, you fall asleep to the sound of the sea, the restaurant, what to say? Well, Borja and his team have treated us like royalty, and we are very grateful to them. After a night walk in front of the sea, on our return the serene has treated us with great joy, it is seen that they are happy with what they do and the result is highly positive. And what to say about the products made by themselves (wines, oils, vegetables) we are going to have a very nice experience, highly recommended !!!!!

The staff is magnificent, they make you feel at home, very close and humble. There is a man in the morning who prepares the picnic if you need it, and he prepares it for you with great dedication and affection, even the coffee he makes it delicious and delicately. I have not tried their restaurant dishes but they were very well presented and with an exquisite look, I would like to return and try their menu. Customers should appreciate the good and human details that this place has

The location is excellent, on the beachfront. We have eaten some anchovies and bravas (homemade) and they are very good! And the fideuá ... is one of the best I've ever had! Of fine noodles, prawn from Palamós, with a crunchy layer on top (oven) and very honeyed. The homemade cheesecake also very good. Excellent treatment by the entire team (manager and waiters). We will be back! Highly recommended, and always better to book.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
I deal with the excellent staff. Incredible to find efficient and friendly staff, they have to take care of it a lot !!!! The location cannot be beat. Very first line of the sea, at the foot of the beach. You don't even have to cross the street. It was the first time I had gone to a hotel on the first line and taken a room with a sea view. A lot of noise for my taste, but nothing controllable by the hotel, people who walk at night and talk as if they were in a disco, kids who come back from partying, etc., who go along the promenade, etc. The hostel does not have air conditioning, but it does have a fan. It is not the same, but you have to get used to the idea that it is a HOSTEL and not a hotel. The food, on a par with the best restaurants. Very complete breakfast and good quality. The cleanliness of the rooms, for me, is what could be improved a little. We threw away a (paper) cup and they didn't replace it when they made the room. If we had had a problem, we would have asked for it, but if they had replaced it it would have been a hoot, it is a paper cup. Activities available. Tourist excursions organized from the hostel. A highly recommended hostel and a more than reasonable price considering the location.

We had the white wine from Palamos with the dinner. An excellent wine. The waiters were pleasant and attentive. Thanks to Jose and the rest of the waiters for a pleasant evening. Will come again to this restaurant!

Fantastic experience: I loved this very simple but nice place. The rooms are very basic and tiny. But the staff and the food is very good and value for money. I was with my husband,and our plan was to enjoy the beach, swim and walk in the numerous trails offered by that area of Costa Brava. Indeed I selected the Hostal for being on the view on the sea. But then we were surprised by a foody experience. Local products and slow food, Mediterranean cooking, offered at a very accessible costs. Lovely staff, always ready to inform you on the best option and extra "chupitos" (drinks).

Excellent terrace of a great location hotel. Perfect location for the beach, for users of Camí de Ronda and for holidaymakers looking for tranquility. The brutal kitchen. Very good paellas, ceviches, fish and starters. The wines of Celler Brugarol, owners of the hotel, are fresh and pair perfectly with the rice and fish starters. I recommend the Ceviche de corvall, the octopuses with onion from Figueres and the rice dishes. Health and wine Brugarol.

Located at the foot of the beach and in an incredible cove gives it a special charm. Your kitchen is of a maximum quality. To put a stick, the shower in the room, so small that if you move to one side sticks the curtain to the body, and if you move to the other you tap the tap and close it. The staff of 10!

Fantastic experience:
Rested in Palamos, where two beaches, this and the city. We had to drive a car to this one, but it was worth it, the beach is very nice, beautiful, the water is wonderful. Often there are waves, we like it. There is still a stall with the most delicious ice cream, which we ate))

Fantastic experience: The room and bathroom at Hostal Fosca are small and very simple, but where can you find a place where you can watch the sun rise over the sea from your bed, where the staff are very friendly, the meals are delicious and organic? , there is also delicious orange juice and marmalade with the well-cared for breakfast, you can sit in the evening or when it is cool outside, nice and warm in front of a fireplace and where you are immediately on the beach and beautiful walks on good paths along the rocky coast can make all that at a reasonable price !! We enjoyed! PS Not all rooms have a sea view.
