Well above average with great building, architecture and environs. Poor breakfast that gets served to you on a plate by the miserable hotel woman owner. Customer service isn't her best attribute but then this is Spain! Air con, nice bathrooms, televisions and good beds. Avoid ground floor street rooms

Me and my wife have stayed many times at hotel El Xalet, and we love the place. The building and the rooms are fantastic. It is close to both the station, centrum and the beach. The family who owns the hotel is very friendly and helpful. And the food the serve at nights in the lovely garden is marvelous. We... More

I love this charming hotel and was delighted to stay in the same room as last time. On this occasion I met the lovely Yvonne who is the sole English speaking staff person (although the others do their best and are as helpful as they can be). I can't add much more to what I wrote from my stay last... More

My partner and I are usually budget travellers and this hotel is excellent for two stars. The rooms are not amazingly clean but ample. I think the staff overall are ok...not great. We always sleep with airplugs but for people that don't the aircon might keep you awake. The breakfast is great start to the day and the beach is... More

I have stayed at the Hotel El Xalet and its’ sister hotel the Hotel Noucentista several times. Despite having a reservation confirmed by e-mail, and held with a credit card number, we turned up at the Hotel El Xalet to be told “No room at the inn”! Seriously! And the worst part – the owner and her son (who took... More

I stayed here in the suite for a week celebrating my partners 40th birthday and it was my 3rd stay in Sitges. The El Xalet is a beautiful hotel, very grand and full of stunning high ceilings and features set in an old Mansion with a romantic courtyard and small swimming pool. The room had beautiful mosaic floors, masses of... More

This was my third trip to Sitges but my first one alone. I decided to keep it a cheap holiday and looked for what could be basic but not dreadful. Upon arrival I found out that I would not be in the main hotel but at their sister building, the Noucencista (spelling?). This was only a few seconds down the... More

Hotel is architectually wonderful and very very well situated near the train station, market, main shopping areas and beaches. We stayed for 3 nights in room 104 - large, charming and a bit ramshackle, with a massive terrace. Breakfasts (included) are fine. Owners are not overly welcoming, but not unfriendly - in Spanish or Catalan, and English receptionist Yvonne is... More

I stayed at El Xalet with my family for a weekend to celebrate my Mother's 60th birthday. The building is beautiful and although the rooms were basic they were clean and air conditioned and decorated in a period style in keeping with the era. The staff were extremely welcoming and looked after us all during our stay. I would also... More
