“Small family run hotel where you instantly felt like you had known them for years”

Breakfast was great, everyone at the hotel was very friendly and helpful and it was a joy to speak to them everyday.

“Perfect small hotel in great location”

Very welcoming staff. Good breakfast. Very clean and well appointed. Great bed.

“Fabulous on every count.”

Amazing hosts Matthew and Mariona! A wonderful hotel and we will be back xx

“Perfectly located with excellent hosts!”

Perfectly located near the water. Matt & Mariona are the perfect hosts, we really enjoyed our stay. Matt gave us information about what to see in the area & how to find everything required. Restaurant was great & always busy with locals which tell s you it is good.

“Taverna by the sea”

The Taverna de la Sal is an excellent boutique hotel that caters to every requirement. It is owned by a lovely couple that are most helpful, and nothing is too much for them. The staff are hard working and very friendly and very pleasant. The busy restaurant is on the ground floor of the hotel and is very busy, so book early. Couldn't fault anything at all and big shout out to the breakfast waitress and the hard-working cleaner who add to a very pleasant atmosphere. Will be back

“Terrific Taverna”

Excellent central seafront location/v friendly and helpful owners, and their staff/Good-sized room with safe/Roof terrace/Heavenly breakfast included, with freshly squeezed juice and fresh fruit/Superb restaurant attached to the hotel/Balcony with sea view/Secure hotel with card-operated front door, lift and internal doors/Multi-storey car parking option (€20/night).

Great location, just around the corner from the main beachfront. All the staff were very friendly and genuine. Lovely big room and great spacious shower. It felt all very new and modern. With only 6 rooms it give it an exclusive feel. Also great breakfast and proper coffee! We're just sorry we ran out of time to try the restaurant. Next time!

“Luxurious hotel - perfect location”

Luxurious hotel room with everything we needed. Fantastic spacious bathroom too! Excellent location just a few metres walk from Platja de la Riba and the bars and restaurants of L’Escala. (Taverna de la Sal has its own restaurant too open to the public which was also of a high quality) It is just a 20 minute walk to the Ruins of Empuries and beautiful beaches nearby. Matt and Mariona were the perfect hosts and all the staff working in the hotel were friendly and helpful too. Our stay was perfect!

“Wonderful 2 day stay in L'Escala.”

Suberb location. ( 30 metre walk to beach for pre breakfast swim). Beautifully maintained property. Rooms larger than expected. Good breakfast - high quality food. Finally and most importantly, wonderful welcoming hosts.

“10/10 would recommend to anyone”

Absolutely perfect accommodations across the board. Location, service, affordability, all top notch. I've stayed in at least 500 different hotels in my life and this was a top 10 experience for me. The owners, Matt and Mariana (I'm probably misspelling this;) ) were incredibly gracious and I'm very much looking forward to my next visit!

We liked everything about this Boutique Hotel especially the owners Mariona and Matthew!

“10 out of 10 - But the owners Mariona and Matthew elevate it to 11 out of 10!”

Breakfast was excellent

“Perfect stay. Like staying with old friends”

Room very comfortable. Owners totally looked after us. Location is amazing. Loved guest lounge, great restaurant

“Perfect place to chill & feel totally taken care of!”

Everything was totally perfect, from the welcoming of the staff to the fantastically spacious & beautifully decorated rooms with sea views, The hotel was quiet & we were lucky enough to have a slot in the hotel car parking facility. Everywhere was exceptionally clean. Also, it was great to have the opportunity to receive several English-language news stations. Having a restaurant in the hotel is a real bonus as is having use of the roof terrace. The hotel is perfectly situated close the the main beach & all the delightful shops selling a variety of goods from clothing to delicious local products. A return visit is definitely on the cards! Thank you Matthew & team

“A wonderful stay, a great place for a late autumn break”

Beautifully designed and spotless. Friendly helpful owner and staff. Parking provided nearby Great restaurant underneath but no noise intrusion. Beach a few steps away

Exceptional accommodation. Exceptional location. Exceptional restaurant. Exceptional breakfast. Exceptional owners who made us so incredibly welcome. What else can we say? Highly recommend. We will most definitely be back.

Every single thing exceeded our expectations. From the moment Mat (the brilliant NZ owner) met us outside the hotel to explain the secure car parking procedure, and at every moment in our excellent four day stay, Mat and his wonderful wife were the perfect hosts. Our room was quite spacious and modern (in a classy manner) and had a massive bed and modern large bathroom. It was such a comfortable quiet space to sleep and relax in. The room also had a small and perfect balcony, with table and chairs, that gave us a wonderful view of the beach and sea, which were just a few steps away from this marvellous boutique hotel. The breakfast was excellent, with everything freshly cooked and sooo tasty and all served in the lovely first floor breakfast room. The restaurant on the ground floor was tastefully and simply decorated and very popular. If you’re going to eat there (and we did) (and the food was superb) then it is worth making a reservation to be sure of getting a table. We’ve traveled quite extensively over a long number of years so understand what makes the difference between an ‘ok’ stay and what makes for a ‘memorable’ stay and this perfectly run luxury boutique hotel is most definitely in the ‘very memorable’ category. We will return!
