Hotel Historic is in Girona
Capital of the Costa Brava region and one of the capitals of Catalonia, Girona is a medium-sized city boasting a wealth of historic heritage. A university city and bustling service centre, in close proximity to the coast and the Pyrenees, and with an international airport, it is one of the most beloved cities in Catalonia.
Situated in the Ter valley at the point where the river enters the city lies the largest city park in Catalonia, La Devesa. The Onyar River, which flows through the historic quarter, has afforded an image which sets the city apart: a Florentine vision of earth-toned houses flanking the peaceful waters crossed by various bridges such as the Iron Bridge (by the architect Gustave Eiffel). The east bank of the river is home to the historic quarter while the west bank is home to the modern city. Just 30 minutes drive from the center of the Costa Brava and just over an hour from Barcelona, it has an excellent range of cultural, commercial and recreational offer.
If you have the opportunity to visit the Costa Brava you should not miss this city, which has the urban charm but also the cosy beauty of small towns. Like all corners of the Costa Brava, Girona is a city on a human scale so that it can perfect fit your travel needs and take advantage of its cultural offers as festivals, cultural activities, concerts... undoubtedly Girona is the city of the Costa Brava with an highest activity through all the year.
Strategic site on the northern route of the Via Augusta, it was first a Roman city, seat of the bishopric from the 5th century and capital of the earldom of Girona from the Carolingian era. Even in modern times, its resistance in the War against Napoleon (1808-1809) was legendary.
Its old quarter is dominated by the cathedral, with a majestic entrance (a Baroque staircase with almost one hundred steps). It comprises a large Romanesque bell tower and cloister, a Baroque façade and a Gothic nave. Moreover, it is the widest single nave (almost 30 metres) in medieval European architecture. The temple houses an extraordinary Romanesque masterpiece of textile art, the Tapestry of the Creation (11th century). The Chapter Museum exhibits an outstanding Beatus (10th century) by Ende, one of the few named female artists of the Middle Ages. Lovers of Romanesque and Gothic art must pay a visit to the Art Museum housed in the Episcopal Palace.
Behind the cathedral, the stroll along the ancient wall is an unrivalled vantage point. Visitors can gain an insight into Girona’s past at the History Museum. At the foot of the cathedral, visitors can explore the Call or Jewish quarter, few of which have been so well preserved. The streets surrounding Carrer de la Força and the house of Isaac the Blind (now the seat of the Jewish History Museum) were home to an active Jewish community for 600 years until their expulsion in 1492. The Call features its ritual baths, synagogues and an important Kabbalah school with such wise men as Nahmanides, more commonly known in Catalan as Bonastruc ça Porta.
Next to the cathedral, beyond the Sobreportes gateway, are two churches which form the silhouette of the old city: the Monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants (11th-12th century, a former Benedictine abbey), which houses the Archaeological Museum, featuring a magnificent Gothic nave and a cloister, and Sant Feliu, a stone’s throw from the River Onyar, a blend of different styles which in the presbytery conserves the early Christian tombs from the period of Christian persecution. It has a beautiful cloister and a two-floor octagonal bell tower, decorated with double glazing also in Lombard style. Sant Feliu church contains a chapel dedicated to the patron saint of the city. Legend has it that a swarm of flies emerged from the chapel which frightened off the French during the siege of 1285.
The Arab Baths constitute a unique Romanesque building which was designed according to a North-African model.
One of the most emblematic images of Girona is that of the buildings on the river Onyar, which crosses the city. This is a series of houses on the river, in height, which are painted in bright colors. The city has eleven bridges over the river, and the best known of all is the Eiffel Bridge, designed by Gustave Eiffel and built shortly before the famous tower in Paris.
Girona’s historic centre boasts outstanding architecture and unforgettable nooks and crannies: the Church of Sant Nicolau, the Gothic building of Pia Almoina (a medieval charitable institution), the convents of Sant Domènec (now a university building) and El Carme, the mansions flanking Carrer dels Ciutadans such as the Palau Agullana and the Fontana d’Or (which hosts fine exhibitions), the Plaça del Vi, and the archways on Rambla de la Llibertat. However, Girona also has a wealth of popular legends including the witch of the cathedral (a sinner turned to stone, now a gargoyle on the north façade of the cathedral), the Cocollona (the monster that crosses the river on nights with a full moon) and the bottom of the lioness which brings good fortune to those who kiss it (in front of the Church of Sant Feliu). Girona is a city through which to saunter, brimming with myriad restaurants, designer boutiques and handcraft stores.
Notable buildings on the other bank of the river include the Farinera Teixidor flour mill and the Casa de la Punxa, part of the legacy of the Noucentista architect Rafael Masó. Visitors to this part of the city can also explore the Cinema Museum, the only one of its kind in Spain. Housing the Tomàs Mallol collection, it is a veritable journey through the passion and ingenuity that made cinema possible.

The Hotel is situated on top of a hill but this makes it peaceful with a fantastic sense of history. As is normal with a medieval town the cathedral bell tolls hourly so just take some earplugs if you are a light sleeper. |

The location in the central of the Jewish quarter, next to the cathedral and the wall. Very convenient to obtain groceries or to shop or eat out. It was very noisy due to construction. Visitors should be warned about the cathedral bells being rung every hour, and sometimes half or quarter hour, as well, sometimes there were two bells. The kitchen utensils (i.e., pans) were not functional. The knives were not sharp. |

Location. Doorman/front desk staff with good English skills, pleasant 2 star by US standards for the quality of the hotel room - American double bed. Kitchenette had a gas range but no automatic lighter or matches. Radiators took 24 hours to adjust. Room was freezing in early December the whole first day and night, requiring wearing heaviest coat in the room while reading, and putting wearing the blanket from the bed too. No safe, no hair dryer. |

Friendly, helpful owners. Excellent location if you want to be near Cathedral/Jewish Call area. Apartment furniture a little thread-weary but very spacious, comfortable and good value for money. Not a negative for us: We knew church bells ring every 1/4 hr; this did not bother us. Light sleepers might want to bring ear plugs. |

Great location in a lovely city that is worth a visit. Beautiful old building. Lackluster service. We had numerous interactions with the man at reception desk -perfunctory at best. Definite sense of not being particularly welcome. We are a gay american couple. Contrasts to other reviews which extol the warmth of the owners. Also we were promised that someone would be at the desk to call us a cab at 8am for our 9am train. Not so. At twenty past we figured we were on our own.It's about twenty minutes on foot through cobblestone streets to get there. Fortunately we knew the way. We made it but no need for the extra adventure. |

Good location and comfortable bed. Great for buisness or vacation stay. Late check out. The breakfast room was not ready as we showed up after the opening time. The lights were no open in the dining room, long wait and most of all the man attitude didn't make us feel that he was happy to serve us. We didn't feel welcome at all. Bad way to start a day! |

Pleasant surroundings eg near cathedral, arabic baths and old quarter. Helpful manager. No air con which made it difficult to sleep at night (fans not really sufficient in the heat of August). Stayed in one of the apartments which could have been better equipped for self catering eg basic cutlery and crockery needs improving. Bathroom could do with updating (broken tiles around bath). These comments only relate to the apartments not the hotel proper. |

The apartment was clean and had necessary appliances. The air-conditioner worked well.The staff made every effort to be helpful. This hotel was nearly impossible for us to find. You have to end up going the wrong way down a one- way street to get to the hotel. We needed to actually hire a taxi to get us to the hotel. Maybe we came the worng way but that was also what the taxi had to do to get us there. The location, across for a parador and next to the historical Cathedral was excellent. |

He gave us great recommendations for places to see while in Girona, as well as provided great restaurant recommendations We were able to go to three of the restaurants he recommended, and they were all fantastic. Location was excellent, and we were able to easily walk to all points of interest. This is something that I find in many hotels - more bathroom lighting is needed. |

Location is perfect as it's in the heart of the old city and is quiet. The man on the desk didn't offer to help take any of our bags to the room even though he was accompanying us there and was younger than us. It's rather over priced and the room hadn't been cleaned one day by 12.45pm. When this was pointed out he merely said they were busy when of course he (as he was the owner) should employ more staff at such times. After that he wasn't at all friendly even though we were perfectly polite. |

Helpful and friendly owners, large and comfortable apartment, location in the heart of the old city and near the cathedral. The hotel is at the top of the hill, with steep climbs. Was ok for us, but some people might find it tiring. Taxi from the restaurant areas or the station is €6 to 8, so it is not an insurmountable problem. |

What a treat so stay in such beautiful, comfortable surroundings in the middle of the fabulous old town of Girona. The owner was extremely helpful and we only wished we could have stayed longer. Bed could have been more comfortable, cathedral & church bells will disrupt your sleep (take earplugs!). |
