Comfortable modern hotel near Girona's old town and train station, popular with business travelers and tourists alike. Stylish contemporary rooms, good restaurant, and excellent location for day trips to the Costa Brava.
Hotel Carlemany is a contemporary four-star hotel positioned on Plaça del Milenari on the western edge of Girona's old town in Catalonia, a 10-minute walk from the Barri Vell's medieval streets and a 5-minute walk from the train station. The building is modern and purpose-built, offering practical, comfortable accommodation that complements Girona's outstanding medieval attractions without the heritage charm premium of the smaller boutique hotels inside the walls. The 90 rooms are decorated in a clean contemporary style with good quality beds, ample wardrobe space, and modern bathrooms — a reliable choice for both leisure travellers and the business visitors who make up a significant portion of the clientele in this well-connected Catalan city. Restaurant Carlemany serves traditional Catalan cuisine with a focus on the Girona region's producers — the Empordà coast's seafood, Garrotxa volcanic zone vegetables, and local cheeses. The restaurant's set menus represent excellent value for the quality. A gym and a bar complete the on-site facilities. Girona's proximity to El Celler de Can Roca means the hotel frequently hosts food-focused travellers using the city as a base; the concierge can assist with reservations at sought-after local restaurants. The hotel has its own car park, a practical advantage given limited parking in central Girona. Girona Airport is 11 km east, with regular bus service from the city centre.

Tips for visiting
- The hotel restaurant is better than its mid-range positioning might suggest — worth dining in at least one evening.
- Girona train station is a 5-minute walk, with high-speed trains to Barcelona (37 minutes) and connections to the Costa Brava.
- Parking in the hotel car park is far more convenient than trying to park in the old town — book it when reserving the room.
- Request a room away from the road-facing side if noise is a concern; inner rooms are quieter.
- El Celler de Can Roca accepts reservations months ahead; the hotel concierge can assist in contacting the restaurant.
