Husa Imperial Tarraco

A seaview at it's best

In October 2008, we stayed at the Husa Imperial Tarragona for a fabulous four nights stay, it is in a prime location over looking the sea and the magnificent amphitheatre. The rooms are modern and comfortable with a mini bar, hair dryer, in room safe. Staff were very helpful, and spoke adequate English. The highlight of the hotel was the magnificent breakfast, the light and airy breakfast room was adorned with tables of fresh and dried fruit, a choice of cereals, breads, pastries, cold meats and cheese, hot bacon, eggs, sausage, a variety of oils and sauces including the Catalonian Romesco sauce….delicious, and an abundance of fruit choices, teas and coffees.

Unique Quality: Fantastic sea and amfitheatre views if requested, fantastic surrounding neighbourhood views if you don't.

Centrally located to the historical sites

It might not be the cheapest hotel in the area, but it very centrally located to the historic sites, providing easy walking distance to many restaurants and attractions. Its view is spectacular if you get a room facing south, over the coliseum or beach.

The hotel however is rather old and in need of a bit of attention. The rooms can have a musty, damp feel to them and the beds in some rooms are a bit seasoned.

Stunning View of Sea and Sites

First things first - WOW!
The view from this hotel is breathtaking! See the picture if you don't believe me!

The ammenities were great and the hotel couldn't have been better situated.

We were given a tip that the weekend rate was lower then it should be for the quality of the hotel and it was - we got a suite (we asked for a double room and they had a suite available so they upgraded us free of charge without telling us) for 115 Euros (which included a buffet breakfast for two the next morning).

Unique Quality: - The most unique quality is the view.

- Second to that is the great room rates available on the weekends. It's used during the weeks by business people and is well set up for conferences, etc..., the travel guide we used told us they significantly reduce the rates on the weekend. This is true!

- Every room has a balcony.

- Breakfast was good and included in the room rate.

- It's very well situated to see the sites of the town and the sea.

- There is an outdoor pool
