Fantastic experience: Great discovery, beautiful hotel with huge and well-preserved rooms. Clean, quiet, and very welcoming. I will not hesitate to return with the kids in the summer to enjoy the gardens and the pool. The staff deserves an 11 out of 10. Thank you very much for all the attentions received.

Fantastic experience: It has been wonderful staying at this hotel. All the staff working there have treated us very well. They even gave us a bottle of champagne for our anniversary. The views from the terrace are beautiful. The room is very large, the bathtub, I would like to have one like this at home, ha. The only thing that may not be good about the room, for some, is that the bathroom has a transparent door, slightly frosted. With practically zero privacy. I wonder what the architect or designer was thinking when they came up with that. Furthermore, the door used for the bathroom is the same one used for the shower, so if you are taking a shower, the bathroom door is open. In short, we had a lovely day and were very well attended to. Thank you very much.

Fantastic experience: We've stayed for 2 nights the previous week. It was perfect! From start to finish. Prime location, wondrous hotel and kind staff available and understanding. The cherry on the cake: the quality of the breakfast (gluten and lactose free if requested), and the private spa for 2. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: The hotel is a marvel. The room is very spacious and clean and the bed is incredibly comfortable! The staff is unbeatable. The breakfast is good and very complete. There is a cute little pool at the very top with very nice views. The spa is small but very cozy, you have to make an appointment. And the massage and therapy service was a pleasure, the masseuse is a charm. They have a menu with 4 things to eat all day and they bring it to your room or the pool. And it is in a very quiet area of the village with parking spaces near the hotel as they do not have private parking. The staff is super helpful and in a good mood. We will repeat if God wills.

Fantastic experience: An authentic stay at Palau Macelli! Palau Macelli is a true gem in the heart of Castelló d’Empúries, a place rich in history that beautifully combines the charm of the ancient with modern comfort. Housed in an old noble house, the hotel reflects the elegance of a bygone era, while offering modern amenities such as a spa set in the former stables. Its location is ideal, right next to the Basilica of Santa María, the old convent of Santa Clara, and the city walls. It’s a perfect setting for those wishing to explore the historical and cultural richness of the region. The staff is attentive, and the atmosphere in the hotel is both serene and exclusive. Every space has been designed to ensure an unforgettable experience, whether to relax or to enjoy the beauty of the place.

Oliviero Causa 02/04/2024

Fantastic experience: I recently took a break from the hustle of Barcelona and found a slice of heaven at Hotel Palau Macelli. Tucked in a cozy town close to beautiful spots like Cadaques and Figueres, this place was the peaceful retreat I desperately needed. Right away, Hotel Palau Macelli felt special. Everything, from the spotless surroundings to the super kind staff, made me feel truly welcome. They really cared about making my stay amazing, and it showed in every little detail. The town around the hotel was just as charming, giving me the best of both worlds: a quiet place to chill and cool spots to explore nearby. It was the perfect backdrop for my little getaway. My room was like a personal haven. Comfortable, stylish, and just what I needed to relax and recharge. Waking up there felt like a dream, with sunlight gently peeping through the curtains each morning. But my favorite spot had to be the hotel's garden. It was so peaceful, sitting there with my coffee, surrounded by nature's quiet. It was these moments of calm in the garden that really made my stay unforgettable. Hotel Palau Macelli wasn't just a place to sleep—it was my peaceful bubble away from the city. It was ideal for some quiet time alone, and I left feeling refreshed and grateful for the experience. This place is a true gem for anyone needing a break from the busy city life.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful boutique hotel in a very cute village. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. There is a small spa that you can privatize, a rooftop pool which unfortunately isn’t climatized and breakfast option which is worth it. Impeccably maintained property.

Agafe 10/12/2023

Fantastic experience: Great quality for the price! The hotel is very nice and clean. Except for the saleswoman who attended us. When we were supposed to go to the room, instead of being the guide, she let us 'go first' without knowing where we were supposed to go or knowing the facilities. UNCOMFORTABLE to be followed. We got the feeling that because we were 'young 25/30' she undervalued us. Her face changed when we left the next day as scheduled and left her almost €10 in tip. The SPA is very nice, private for couples. The downside is that to access it, you have to go through reception, the entrance door, and everyone sees you leaving the SPA.

Sandrine Carton 06/12/2023

Fantastic experience: As always, a warm welcome. The management and staff take great care of us. We come in May, June, and September. A great pleasure every time. The location is ideal if you want to stroll through the streets of Castéllo. There are excellent restaurants within a short walking distance. The rooms are very spacious and silent, even those facing the street. We have stayed many times and have been able to try different rooms (standard rooms and suites). The garden is beautiful and allows you to enjoy a cocktail in the evening peacefully accompanied by tapas. And if you wish to have your aperitif in your room, that is possible too. It is true that the pool is small, but given the building, it's already huge to have one. Therefore, we recommend this establishment.

Palau Macelli
Dear Madam, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your recent stay with us. We are very pleased that the hotel, the service, the breakfast, and the various amenities in the room were to your liking. Regarding the pool, it is indeed not a large pool. The building dates back to the 17th century and structurally, it was the only place it could be located. In recent months, there has been little rain in the area, and all the pigeons living in the basilica have gotten used to trying to drink the water from the pool because they don’t find it anywhere else. We are truly sorry that you found the pool unclean due to the pigeons, but we are doing everything we can to prevent this from happening. On the other hand, Tramuntana is known for the Empordà wind, and on days when it blows, we cannot set up umbrellas because it can be dangerous. It was a pleasure to welcome you to Palau Macelli and we hope to see you again in the near future. Warm regards,

Fantastic experience: Absolutely incredible hotel. The building itself is nothing but stunning: old palace carefully rehabilitated, right next to a beautiful church. The rooms are tastefully decorated. The service is outstanding, all staff members are warm and make you feel at home, making sure you have everything you need and beyond. Really nice breakfast buffet with a great variety of options, including high quality local products for a more than affordable price (15€ per person). Cherry on the cake: it is located right at the heart of Castello d'Empuries's old town, one the cutest villages I've seen. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: We have been able to enjoy a wonderful stay at this establishment, which stands out not only for its location (next to the Basilica of Santa Maria) and its fusion with the surrounding environment, but also in many other aspects: firstly, the attention from the hotel staff is excellent, very family-oriented, and always attentive to the well-being of their clients. The rooms stand out for their comfort, hygiene, and tranquility. The design of all the facilities, the decoration, and all the small details carefully looked after in every corner of the hotel create a unique atmosphere. The breakfast, with a wide variety of high-quality products (cured meats, fresh orange juice, homemade pastries) offered by the hotel, is more than complete. Without a doubt, we will return!

One night with family in the presidential suite on the way back from southern Spain to Paris. Just a small note, in my opinion, a few hooks for towels, bathrobes, and clothes are missing. Small intimate pool on the hotel roof. Be careful with the first step of the pool, it is slippery! Fresh breakfast with quality products. Bravo for these services!

Soon as she walked in she said I would love to get married here and if she plays her cards right that might just happen. Thank you for making our stay so amazing, we will definitely be coming back.

Cristina 13/10/2021

Positive experience: A nice hotel, especially the common areas. The staff attended to us correctly and they placed us in a superior room to the one we had reserved. The downside would be the pool, which is not only small but also unheated. And unfortunately, the windows in our room let in outside light even with the curtains closed, which made it difficult for us to rest, which is exactly what we were hoping for since it was a holiday.

Xavier Tomas 20/09/2021

Positive experience: New hotel designed with great taste, but it shows that in many aspects, design has taken precedence over pragmatism and the functionality of what a hotel should be. Very spacious room, but with views of a wall and the air conditioners. The biggest flaw is that the bathroom has a glass door, which is visible from almost the entire room when the other is on the toilet... The breakfast process is uncomfortable. Wifi very weak. The staff is very attentive and professional. If they fix the details, it will be a great hotel.

Enrique Fernández 13/09/2021

Fantastic experience: Fantastic, really good. Don't even think about it. If you can afford it, go and you won't regret it. Obviously, like everything good, it's NOT cheap, but paying the difference often changes your trip and comfort. Everything is brand new because they opened it just 4 months ago. Clean and the room I stayed in was super large. It can't be more central, you have the main square and the village church 10 meters away. Yes, I said 10 not 100. What stands out to me, apart from the room, is the outdoor bar. I would dare to say it's the best in the village. Very spacious, it has a chill out vibe with outdoor tables and chairs where you can enjoy a drink quietly. Ideal for after dinner or something like that. I'LL TELL YOU A SECRET: I slept so incredibly well, so comfortably, that I begged them to give me the manufacturer and model of the mattress... I swear... I wanted to change my home mattress and this is the one I'm going to buy for sure. The only complicated thing is the parking, but when you're in a historic center it’s enough to leave your car parked in some alleyway 200 or 300 meters away and that's it.

Fantastic experience: We went to have a drink and with the gardens being so calm and relaxed, we decided to have dinner. The tapas were very good, the bravas a bit weak, but the big detail was that, due to a delay in the kitchen, we had to wait for a while and, for the inconvenience suffered, they treated us to all the tapas. A great gesture that only serves to enhance the great impression the place gave us. We are already looking for a weekend to stay at the hotel!

Fantastic experience: True to be told, Castelló d'Empuries was not on our holiday itinerary but then I ran into the Palau Macelli and decided to make an exception to the original plan, adding one extra night (glad I made this decision). After a renovation of the old palace lasted 2 years, the property is now an architectural masterpiece, decorated with very good taste. Oleguer and his girlfriend, the owners and hotel managers, are very attentive and helpful. It is hard to add something to the photos (mine and the official ones) that speak for themselves about the beauty of this place. Everything is wonderful, both the room/s and the common areas. The Junior Suite (thanks for the upgrade) is amazing, with all the amenities one could expect for a hotel of this level. Great attention has been paid to all the details. The swimming pool on the terrace is a nice place to relax and the gardens are marvelous too. Breakfast is delicious and served at the table, even if there is a small buffet corner. CON's: I do not find any! If you are looking for accommodation in this area of the Alt Empordá, you should not look further: Palau Macelli is the place where to stay. More than highly recommended.

We recommend you book the spa for a romantic getaway and make sure to get a refreshing cocktail in the beautiful garden with a panoramic view of the Catalan surrounding, at the foot of the stunning Basilica.

Fantastic experience: Perfect experience in this beautiful restored Palace. The Hotel is rated as 4* superior. Every corner is a perfect place to spend some time. Careful, delicate, and appropriate decoration for the building and the surroundings. The walls of the Palace tell the history; we can see exquisite Catalan vaults with inscriptions from 1890. The Hotel has a rooftop pool and wellness services such as a complete massage menu. They use environmentally-friendly amenities. Complete and good breakfast with natural foods. The staff is very professional and pleasant.

Fantastic experience: This hotel in Castello d'Empuries has recently opened and offers you double rooms and fully renovated suites. The hotel was built in an old Italian palace and charmingly blends the new with the old. A very friendly young couple manages the hotel with a lot of dynamism. A bar offers you drinks to enjoy in the hotel's gardens in the evening. The breakfast is complete and prepared with fresh regional products. Ultimately, a very good value for money.

Fantastic experience: An amazing place, very well-kept details and very friendly staff. They offered us a better room and we were really happy. The terrace with the pool is small but enough to cool off, and the gardens are amazing for having a drink in the afternoon or evening. 100% recommendable for a weekend getaway and relaxation. 10/10

Positive experience: Their gardens for having a drink are spectacularly beautiful, good atmosphere, tranquility, good service and treatment, and during COVID times, all safety measures are respected. The only negative point is that the cocktail menu does not offer much variety, but I highly recommend it!
