My Wife and I got married in Sitges in May. We had our wedding reception in the Calipolis and most of our guests stayed there for a few nights.
We cannot praise this hotel enough. The staff are very friendly and efficient, they may not have the best of English but, hey this is Spain.
All our guests commented on the cleanliness of the rooms and the public areas within the hotel. We stayed in a suite which had fantastic views across the bay. In fact most rooms in the Calipolis have beach views and are good value for money.
One thing that really stood out for this hotel is the food which is excellent. However the breakfast which is charged seperately €13 is a bit pricey but the buffet is still excellent.
The Calipolis is excellently situated in Sitges, right beside the beach and restaurants and a quick walk to the town centre.
Other reviewers have commented on the pool, which is really only a water feature, but how can they complain when the sea is just a quick hop across the road.
We can reccommend The Calipolis very highly.

I stayed over at the Calipolis for 4 days, over Easter holidays. The room was very big, with a little office-foyer; which was handy to prevent any noise from the corridor to reach the room. The bathroom was very big as well and there was plenty of closet space. The views from the room were great, even though we did not get a sea view.

The Calipolis has a great location, central to everything, yet not in the middle of the noise. I do recommend it.

I actually got the Calipolis thanks to a review here: I was contemplating the Hotel Celimar at first, but they gave me a hard time when I called because they would not assure that I could get a two bed room instead of one. After reading the review of the Celimar and checking the room sizes and pictures, I realized that they were going to charge me about the same price for a really tiny room and no assurance of my only request. The Calipolis is very new, with big and comfortable rooms. I am glad I did not get the Celimar.

Here goes!

Sitges, is a very gay friendly town, more gay than straight. I am straigt and had no problems everyone was nice and friendly. The gay beaches could be overwhelming to Americans and I would caution against this especially for those with children. I enjoyed the more family friendly beaches and little shops.


Room, The room me and my girlfriend had was 4th floor direct ocean view which was amazing. The room however had no clock, no cofee maker etc, it was very sparse. If you got an even numbered room that didnt face the water, this hotel would SERIOUSLY BUM YOU OUT. I would avoid this hotel if you dont get an ocean view, however the hotel lcoation, lobby etc are very friendly and clean.

Overall, The room depending on location and view can make or break this hotel. With rooms this sparse you need a nice view or it would be terrible. If you arent liberal or gay oreintaed I would avoid this town, its very very different from what I am used to. That being said there are many discos and food joints that are friendly, clean and a blast to visit.

Americans would give this a 3 star rating and nothing more.

British couple, just returned from 3 night stay at Calipolis Hotel and was quite disappointed as the pics on the website certainly make it look better than it is. The pool pictures are most misleading. Pool is miniscule and it certain not in a place (at side of a busy road) where we would want to sunbathe.

The theme of the place in "minimalist" but just substitute that for stark and uncomfortable - I defy anyone to find a single comfortable chair or sofa in the whole place.

Our room was on 8th floor, good views, but room was as small as it could possibly be. The bathroom is large and a waste of space, bath was large, but bathroom was stark with horrible lighting.

There is supposedly one of the 12 channels broadcasting in English - info in room said it was TCM but this was in Spanish so TV was pretty useless unless you wanted to watch wall to wall BBC news !!

Staff are certainly now friendly and you are not made to feel welcome in the least. Would not return.
