Authenticity

Sant Roc is a hotel with a rich history dating back to the 17th century. Little by little, the hotel has renovated itself and now features (mostly) updated and beautifully restored spaces that maintain original charm while offering modern amenities. You'll find a mix of contemporary and traditional decor throughout the hotel, including local artwork and conventional Spanish elements. 

Location

Located atop a small cliffside hill in the heart of Palafrugell, Sant Roc is the perfect home base for exploring the surrounding area. A short two-minute walk takes you down to the beach, or keep strolling into the village (about a five-minute walk) and peruse its many shops, restaurants, and bars. The hotel is also within easy driving distance of many other regional attractions, including Begur (a 15-minute drive) and Girona (a one-hour drive).

Rooms & Bathrooms

Sant Roc offers a range of cozy and comfortable rooms, most completed with recent upgrades and a beautifully decorated mix of contemporary and traditional elements. All rooms have views of the sea, but some also feature balconies, which makes the views even better. Enjoy cozy spaces, comfy beds, unique historic furnishings, and modern bathrooms.
