Small hotels in Valencia and Balearics
- Benissa,
Costa Blanca
Hotel La Madrugada *** This hotel is the opposite of most hotels along the Costa Blanca. Though located between Denia and Benidorm, it seems a world away from the tower blocks of the resorts. With seven rooms and one suite, this is a stylish villa in the hills, with pool, tennis court and views to the sea, a quiet out-of-the-way hotel for a relaxing break. AP7 motorway exit 63. - Ebro delta -

Eco-friendly hotel (European eco-label) located in a small village in the Ebro delta nature reserve. A modern family-run hotel with ten rooms, and a restaurant serving local produce and local specialities. Bicycle hire, picnic service. Easy access to the unspoilt beaches of the Delta (there are no big hotels in the Natural park area). - Valencia -

Costa Brava,
Hotel Tamariu *** Small 17-room family-run hotel in one of the few traditional former fishing villages on the Costa Brava. Lovely seaside location, good restaurant, helpful staff and a friendly welcome. Excellent value for money. -
Montseny, near
Barcelona,
La Husa Sant Bernat *** €€€ lies in the Montseny National Park, in the hills north of Barcelona, and is an oasis of peace and calm compared to the city.

The 3 star rating does not do this place justice, though the three-star prices represent excellent value for money.

Spanish hotel prices.
iHi only lists hotels offering good value for money; and comparing Spain to France or the UK, this can mean very good value.Plenty of good quality small hotels in Spain offer double rooms for less than 60€ a night, notably off-season. And this may well include breakfast.
Good "midscale" three-star hotels can often be had for between 80 € and 120 € a night; and many upscale or luxury hotels even offer rooms for little over 100 € a night, depending on season and demand.
Rates are higher in Madrid, Barcelona, and other tourist hotspots.

Catalonia and Valencia
The
two northern provinces - or autonomous communities - of Spain's
Mediterranean coast are not quite like the rest of Spain; here, the
main language is not Castillian Spanish, but Catalan or the slightly
different Valencian. Virtually everyone understands and speaks Spanish
too, and the further south you go, the less of the regional languages
you will here. But take care when driving, road signs and place names
may be in two languages, or in Catalonia, only in Catalan.The coastal strip of these two provinces is in general highly developed, with an intensive tourism industry. But here and there, specially where the hills come down to the sea, there are some beautiful unspoilt places to be found. As for the hinterland, generally dry hills and pine forests, most of it is off the tourist trail, except for part of the Spanish Pyrenees.
