Hotel La Malcontenta

We are not impressed. Three star at Best. Road noise from nearby freeway. problems with Internet Wi-Fi. Bad pillows too hard. Great mattress bed. No privacy between decks, bamboo curtain between decks translucent transparent can easily see and hear and smell smoke from neighbors easy to crawl over onto other deck. No cushions on lounge chairs at pool. Restaurant has a very limited unsatisfactory menu offers the same menu for lunch and dinner. Same menu lunch and dinner all week long does not change. Too many smoking areas. There should be one or two isolated areas. Astray are located almost everywhere outside. Breakfast was just OK. Great service throughout the hotel great trail down to the beach 25 minute walk.

A really nice hotel. Friendly staff, an excellent breakfast and our room was very large and exceptionally warm for the winter. The setting is nice, if quite stark.

This review is made considering this is a 5 stars hotel. If it was a 3 / 4 stars hotel it woud more positive. We were not expecting that in a 5 stars hotel room: two sockets did not work, a lamp didn't work, the tap was leaking, the aircon nearly worked, two shower taps at the swimming pool were broken, etc ... the only aspect which fully met a 5 stars hotel expectation was the high price paid. Dissapointing experience which we'll not repeat again. A pity

Still giddy about the gem of a hotel we got to experience this weekend. Every detail was a delightful discovery - from the doors leading to the back garden, the art pieces on the walls, the silverware, the massive shower, the library full of books in various languages, the beautiful breakfast spread, to my personal favorite - the white slipcover armchair that I wanted to take home and make my own little nap nook. It was the perfect balance between history and charm - that felt both elegant yet extremely inviting and homey. The staff was very warm and helpful from the moment we arrived. Not to mention we had the most gorgeous beaches and coves less than 10 minutes away by car. I saw some reviews about it being outdated, but personally I didn't find anything to be outdated at all. In fact, we wouldn't have loved it so much here if it had been more modern than it was - that is what gave the hotel its charm. As much as I want to keep this place my own little secret, it would be doing such a disservice to this beautiful establishment! I highly recommend staying here, and I will most certainly be back. Thank you so much to Joaquin and the rest of the staff for making our short stay such a pleasant one.

Incredible stay. If you love charm, impeccable style, and an unreal setting — this is your place. The quality and price of the dinner was outstanding and the overall service was fantastic. Very pet friendly , our dog had an incredible time at the beach and fields. Thank you Qin for the wonderful breakfast service and the other staff members for making it memorable for us.

We booked a table in the restaurant for dinner with friends on New Years’ Eve! It was great! Everything was wonderful and of high standards; the food (a beautiful set menu inclusive of wine, cava, water), the service, the entourage, and great staff who did everything to make you enjoy the evening! And all of this for a very friendly price, given the high quality. We love this place and will definitely go back there!

We went for lunch today.|Compared to many local restaurants it was not inexpensive. However having been before, some time ago, it's a good location, not far from home, and the dining room is lovely.|I don't know if there's a new ownership but lunch today was just awful. My husband had two dishes with additional supplements. The first was Burrata with salsa. The Burrata was tough. Maybe past it's best? The mango and tomato salsa not ripe, hard and tasteless.|His steak was served with a few rocket leaves on top a grating of parmesan and nothing else. I gave him half of the potatoes served with my very tiny fish.|Crema Catalana was our dessert of choice. A staple on any menu. This one came from a packet, looked and tasted awful. The caramel crispy layer was almost non existent. We both left it after a spoonful. The waiter offered us something else instead. My husband declined. I chose profiteroles. They had obviously been frozen and microwaved before serving so hot and running in the middle and inedible. |This is such a pity. What a lovely location and such bad food.

Hotel: amazing 5stars boutique with unique pieces of art and furnitures. Service top level, breakfast perfect. Need serious maintenance but still remains of exception. Restaurant: overall not good at all, simply an obvious lower standard than the 5stars hotel it is attached to. It is for nearby camping guests. Sea food clearly not fresh. Cant have such offer of quality products in a 28euros menu.
