Hotel Mas Palou

The hotel is ideally located next to the road which goes to Cadaquès in the quiet countryside, and less than 2 km from the sea. The building has a lot of exterior charm. We had already been there 11 years ago, but it is a shame that this hotel has aged and so have the room facilities due to lack of maintenance and modernization. The room: To save energy all electricity is cut off when the card is removed from the room, including the heat pump. Which means that when you return to your room, in February, it is quite cold! Especially since there is no interior insulation! And since the indoor units are not young, you have the choice between freezing yourself or putting up with quite a lot of noise. The same goes for power outlets: it's impossible to leave a tablet or computer charging while you're away for a meal or breakfast... An oddity, in room 11 (rented as a superior room!), you have 3 roof windows without blackout curtain or shutter: you are therefore awake at daybreak! Not great in June when the nights are short! In the bathroom, it takes several minutes (and how many liters) to have hot water in the shower: not very ecological in a region that lacks water. For the hot or cold water sink, it is impossible to have lukewarm water because there are 2 taps. To be as objective as possible, the bedding is perfect, neither too hard nor too soft. 👍🏼 Restaurant: For the meal part, just 1 menu with 5 or 6 choices. But a small problem is that it is sometimes poorly translated, the pork chops are in reality ribs, and the portion of accompanying vegetables is really very small. Breakfast: correct and plentiful, some cold meats and cheeses, scrambled eggs, pastries, but not fresh fruit juice but bottled, and of course hot drinks. Too bad… 😏

Very beautiful farmhouse, lovely setting with a beautiful swimming pool. For room n14 can accommodate 3 people, very large room, bathroom very large but not practical (no heating, the bathtub with jets a little dated but it is not a spa, the photos are very misleading. And the bathtub faucet is positioned at head level! Who knows 🙄...)No shutters, window in the roof which lets in the daylight, as well as the noise from the restaurant. Decent breakfast, hot drinks can be served at the bar. Practical; 5 minutes by car from Rosas.

Really very disappointed. Room not ready when we arrived. Unpleasant surprise to be in a dark cellar overlooking a wall and a passage. Whirlpool bath more than critical. Moldy tile joints. Moldy nozzles. Broken shower hose. Didn't sleep a wink all night. Every ten minutes a motor would start just behind our headboard. Behind the wall is the spa's technical room. We changed rooms the next night. A little better in terms of clarity. On the other hand, WC leading into the bedroom just separated by a small wall! Super glam, hello privacy... window just above the bathtub And without shutter. A simple curtain. Long live the exhibition! And finally swimming pool not clean with two parasols which no longer open. Broken. And very average breakfast....etc... Room price 180€.

Exterior good, room bad. It is an old farmhouse with old rooms, ours was almost underground, although renovated, but you can notice the cold and, above all, humidity. Bathroom not at all cozy, everything very cold. In addition, it was located next to the restaurant's public bathrooms and you could hear everything. Breakfast and correct staff.
