"You’d be forgiven for thinking Barcelona and Catalonia were one and the same — but drive up the Mediterranean coast through the province of Girona and you’ll find it’s got charms far beyond the urban. Just over two hours from the Catalan capital you’ll find the town of Cadaqués, presiding over a harbor on a rocky peninsula, a picturesque seaside town that’s played host to the likes of Picasso, Joan Miró, and Marcel Duchamp, and features a museum dedicated to Salvador Dalí. It’s an auspicious setting for the right kind of boutique hotel, a place with a keen visual sense and a flair for the dramatic — a description that suits Boutique Hôtel Villa Gala to a tee." - Tablet Hotels
