Hotel Històric

Girona


Each of the 17 rooms and apartments at this rustic-chic hotel, within an ancient stone building whose foundations date back to Roman times, is personally designed by its owners. Earthy tones, wood-beamed ceilings and original stone walls fuse old-world ambience with stylish touches. The best (and priciest) rooms are kitted out with four-poster beds, coloured-glass bathrooms or freestanding in-room baths.

A few metres away, Casa Cúndaro is under the arm of the same family team, offering uncluttered modern-rustic rooms in a converted medieval Jewish home.
