William United States of America

It is real palace from the 1900's, it has kept its spirit. Ceilings are very high, the tiles and balconies superb. A great experience

Rudy France

Amazing location, great value for money, fast wifi and extremely kind staff. Will definetly come back if i go to Sitges again!

Agata Spain

The building and rooms were gorgeously decorated in the old Spanish style. The tile work and attention to detail was fantastic and everything was immaculately clean. They knew how important quality cotton sheets are to me. The Frenchman who received us was smiley, knowledgeable, and very enthusiastic. Never underestimate the power of a friendly welcome. We had safe storage for our bicycles and recommendations for the town. The price was a song compared to the value.

Daniela United States of America

The rooms were nice and the bathroom was really nice. Good lighting and clean sheets. I loved the location right next to the train station! Met my expectations.

Aaron United States of America

The suites was spacious. Loved old Villa feeling, high ceiling, big windows, bright and nice balcony . Location is excellent, right off the main road of town and very close to the train station. The airport bus is about 10 minutes walking away.

Jean United States of America

Great breakfast, beautiful setting poolside while enjoying breakfast.

Marialena United States of America

Have been staying at the Xalet every year for the last 20 years. I love it and the restaurant around the pool is one of the best in Sitges.
