Spain — 10 Hotels Reviewed
Girona is the Catalan city that Game of Thrones made internationally famous (the Barri Vell's medieval lanes stood in for Braavos), but its architectural and culinary substance long predates any television production. The Jewish quarter—El Call—is one of the best-preserved medieval Jewish neighbourhoods in Europe; the Romanesque monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants and the Gothic cathedral anchor a centro storico that rivals any in Catalonia. The hotel scene is defined by converted stone buildings within the walled old town, with a handful of smarter properties in the new city around the Rambla de la Llibertat. Girona's proximity to the Costa Brava beaches, the volcanic Garrotxa landscape and the Empordà wine country—combined with excellent high-speed train connections from Barcelona—makes it one of the most accessible and rewarding boutique destinations in Spain.

Common Questions
Our top pick is Nord 1901, which consistently receives outstanding reviews. We've curated 10 of the best hotels in Girona across all price ranges, from budget guesthouses to five-star properties. Each has been selected for quality, location, and value.
Shoulder season — typically spring (March–May) and early autumn (September–October) — offers the best balance of good weather, lower hotel rates, and manageable crowds. Peak season brings the most vibrant atmosphere but also the highest prices. Check local festivals and events as these can both enhance and complicate your visit.
Budget options start from around $60–100/night, while mid-range hotels run $120–250/night. Luxury five-star hotels start from $300/night and can exceed $1,000 for top suites. Prices vary significantly by season, so booking 4–8 weeks ahead usually secures the best rates.
For first-time visitors, the city centre or historic quarter offers the best combination of walkability, restaurants, and access to main attractions. Once you know the city, neighbourhood hotels often offer better value and a more authentic experience. All the hotels in our guide include neighbourhood notes to help you choose.
Yes — all hotels in our guide can be booked through reputable platforms. We recommend booking either directly with the hotel for potential perks, or through Booking.com for flexible cancellation policies. Always read recent reviews and confirm your booking with the hotel 48 hours before arrival.
