Somiatruites

Fantastic food using local ingredients. Beautiful atmosphere and the AC was a welcome plus. Highly recommend!

The staff are very helpful and service very good. Just had breakfast and it was exquisite.

So this review is mainly for the hotel, as sadly we didn't get round to trying the restaurant! We were invited to Igualada for a family friend's wedding and when I looked for accomodation Somiatruites stood out from a bunch of bland looking places. It looked great and was a very good price so we booked a room and looked forward to our May adventure. Once we finally got there, delayed flight, we were so happy! This place is amazing, easily one of the nicest places I've stayed in Spain. We were checked in by the lovely Augustin, who while rushed as he was working the restaurant also, took us through everything to do with the rooms and made us all feel really welcome. The rooms where absolutely fab. The whole vibe of the place is quite contemporary and a focus on the use of sustainable materials. So lots of wood, metal, some 'raw' finishes which I actually quite like. The bed was fantastic, we meant to look at what brand it was because I want one in the UK. Bathroom had a quirky setup, the shower was above the bath and you stand on a platform with a grate - slide it out the way for a bath. I think this needs just a big grate really instead of the solid part of the cover, as it could get quite wet, but the shower was lovely, and my girlfriend loved the bath. There's no door to the bathroom, so be comfortable with the person you are sharing the room with. Space and lighting is fab, sockets are in good places for charging electronics. We had a room that overlooks the square outside, so the balcony had lovely views, but also some good privacy from the other rooms. There was water for us and a nice selection on the mini-bar. We don't usually bother with them, but Augustin told us it was cheap and he was right! €20 euro for some lovely red wine, Vichy Catalan, coke and the local tax when we checked out was super reasonable. The only complaint I have about the decor was that we didn't have any space to put the cases away! I got mine on a wardrobe shelf, but my girlfriend's was a tiny bit to big to shut the door. We managed fine though and used to living out of cases. Could have done with a couple more hooks on the walls to hang towels or jackets easily at hand, the two by the bed where a bit high and awkward position! Area around the hotels is a mix of old buildings and industrial. Felt safe round there and was very quiet most of our long weekend stay, except the Monday and Tuesday morning! There was big event setting up on the streets and local buildings so got a little noisy first thing, but was super quiet Monday evening. Parking is free on the street, we always managed a space close and the car was fine. Overall, one of my favourite places I've ever stayed in Spain. Igualada may not be a tourist destination really, but we are keen to go back and revisit Somiatruites, try the restaurant and just wander round this lovely town.

Our visit to Somiatruites was a bit of an odd one. We came into the restaurant through the same door everyone was using and then were told by the (I am assuming was) the manager that we were not supposed to us that door. We then seated on some weirdly uncomfortable seats and waited to be served. The menu was quite long and we were able to choose lots of things to try. We ordered and we were served quite quickly. The food was quite good and for the price we paid per person I thought it was very good. Would I think it to be a Michelin star level? Maybe? Not sure. The place is beautiful specially the building from the outside. From what I was told it was an old Catalan country house which was refurbished and transformed into a hotel and restaurant. The service was ok and the environment was quite noisy. I am not sure if it was a coincidence but I have read other comments which make me think it is not unusual. I would definitely recommend the place for anyone living in the area. I would not recommend it for someone to travel more than an hour 😅

Absolutely gorgeous. We went for 3 menus for 2 people, as we wanted to try many options and we were full when we left (but not sick). I'm not a dessert man but the carrot cake was just ridiculous. The value for money is incredible. The staff is really helpful and the chef even explained some of the recipes we were curious about.

The mid day menu from Monday to Friday is 16€ and includes a drink and bread, as well as a starter, main dish, and dessert. It's very well priced! The plates are different and fun, as well as generous In portion. The desserts were OK (perhaps the least tasty of the whole meal). The starters were the best!

The food and service is on point! Innovative presentation and use of i grey that stays true to the dish it represents. I ordered the quiche entry, hake main course and their iconic ‘fried egg’ dessert. Portions of the food were just right. Totally what you expect from a Michelin gourmand restaurant. Highly recommended!

This place was simply the best of our entire experience in Spain. Somiatruites offered a cozy, modern, and unique atmosphere with well thought out and locally made decorations. The room was well appointed and the beds were comfortable. The concierge services were excellent, everyone at the hotel and restaurant was very friendly. The restaurant was charming and a great addition to any stay. The food, yum!

Really neat place as it used to be a leather tannery and the decor incorporates elements of the history. Tapas menu is very delicious. You can do a nice combo of appetizer, main dish and a dessert for 13 Euros. Great deal. The items are Catalonian so that's even better with the experience. We started with the gazpacho chilled soup with salmon and tomato carnitos, main dishes were the burger of Catalonia and tuna tataki or tartar, which was evenly seared around all edges over potatoes and tomato. Finished the meal with almond cream with nectarine and the chocolate dessert, not too sweet, hit the spot. It's a good tapas stop.

There is no enough words to describe what they do! How can I rate a restaurant like this. You cannot imagine What they do with It's price, 14€ menu!
