Salou: Mediterranean Energy Without Limits
Salou is one of the most popular seaside destinations on the Costa Dorada, especially loved by families and couples looking for sun, comfort, and plenty of things to do. With long sandy beaches, a lively promenade, and one of Europe’s best theme parks right on its doorstep, Salou combines relaxation with entertainment in a way that suits all ages.
Make sure you visit:
- The Jaume I Promenade, perfect for an evening stroll among palm trees, fountains, and cafés.
- The Camí de Ronda coastal path, offering beautiful Mediterranean views and quieter coves.
- The Light Fountain, which comes alive at night and is a hit with children.
- Salou’s old town, where you can get a feel for local life away from the beachfront.
- The nearby PortAventura World, a must for thrill-seekers and families alike.
Beaches we think you’ll like:
- Llevant Beach, Salou’s main beach, wide, lively, and ideal for families.
- Capellans Beach, smaller and more sheltered, great for a relaxed day.
- Llarga Beach, surrounded by pine trees and slightly more peaceful.
- Cala Crancs, a charming cove with clear waters, perfect for snorkelling.
Family-friendly activities:
- Spend a full day enjoying rides and shows at PortAventura World.
- Take the tourist train for a fun and easy way to explore the town.
- Try paddleboarding or kayaking in the calm coastal waters.
- Let the kids enjoy the playgrounds and open spaces along the promenade.
- Enjoy an ice cream stop while watching the sunset by the sea.
Make sure you try these local delicacies:
- Fideuà, a seafood dish made with short noodles instead of rice.
- Fresh grilled fish and seafood from the Costa Dorada.
- Xató, a traditional Catalan salad with cod and romesco sauce.
- Crema catalana, a classic dessert similar to crème brûlée.
Make the most of your visit and go to...
- Tarragona, just 20 minutes away, famous for its Roman ruins and historic centre.
- Cambrils, 10 minutes south, ideal for seafood lovers and a relaxed harbour atmosphere.
- Reus, around 15 minutes inland, known for modernist architecture and local shopping.

Very helpful staff
Pools too cold

Pues sinceramente de lo que más he disfrutado a sido de mi pareja, porque lo demás tururú.
La comida una auténtica vergüenza. Y como siempre el agua en el comedor más cara que la gasolina.

Muy buen lugar y por el precio pagado no se puede pedir más.
Habitaciones antiguas. Desayuno y cena con poca variedad y de calidad dudosa. En la habitación estiraban la colcha pero no hacían la cama y tampoco limpiaban. Hotel muy deteriorado en general. Pero por el precio que hemos pagado no se puede pedir más. Buena ubicación

La habitación está muy bien, es correcta y limpia.
The hotel is ok, the bad thing is that it is full of groups of teenagers who do not respect the rest. We had to change rooms but it was more of the same. I think they should reserve some space for families or couples, or have that foresight (if they are going to come hundreds of teenagers it is normal that there is noise, but it is not normal to put 2 families with 4 children next to them). The buffet is quite scarce (few things) and with little variety.
El hotel es correcto, lo malo es que está lleno de grupos de adolescentes que no respetan el descanso. Tuvimos que cambiar de habitación pero era más de lo mismo. Creo que deberían reservar algún espacio para familias o parejas , o tener esa previsión (si van a venir cientos de adolescentes es normal que haya ruido, pero no es normal poner a 2 familias con 4 niños a su lado). El buffet bastante escaso (pocas cosas) y con poca variedad.

La verdad que el hotel me pareció muy bonito, la recepción fue muy correcta y la ubicación muy buena porque íbamos a Port Aventura.
El desayuno muy variado aunque había muchísima gente a primera hora y era difícil conseguir tostarse el pan. Después de ese momento en hora punta se despejó un poco y genial.
El desayuno sin gluten muy rico y bastante cantidad. El personal muy muy amable.
La cena no la encontramos tan variada, quizá porque llegamos sobre las 21h y ya había pasado mucha gente.

Hotel en buena hubicacion,cerca de la estación de tren, se nota ha sido reformado. Personal todos muy amables, la zona de la piscina tiene bastantes hamacas y bonita.
To improve would be the food, the breakfasts were repetitive, in the dinners the dishes were not bad, but some dishes were very simple. It is understood that it is difficult to cook for so many people.
A mejorar sería la comida, los desayunos repetitivos, en las cenas los platos no es que estuvieran mal, pero algunos platos estaban muy simples. Se entiende que es difícil cocinar para tanta gente.

El parque de Port Aventura genial.
The rooms were dirty. Lots of partying at night in the hotel and difficult to rest. We had to call reception several times. The buffet was scarce and repetitive, practically the same every day. Very focused on foreigners and little Mediterranean food.
Las habitaciones sucias. Mucha fiesta por la noche en el hotel y difícil descansar. Tuvimos que llamar a recepción varias veces. El bufet escaso y repetitivo, prácticamente lo mismo todo los días. Muy enfocado al extranjero y poca comida mediterránea.

El hotel es cómodo, nos alojaron el el edificio nuevo y bien. La comida bien, un poco de todo y estaba bueno.
The cleanliness in the room, I had to tell them to clean under the bed, a broken dresser drawer, missing hangers (each in one way) the rest fine.
La limpieza en la habitación, les tuve que indicar que limpiaran debajo de la cama, un cajón del armario roto, faltaban perchas (cada una de una forma) el resto bien.

Está muy bien situado, puedes ir andando a Port aventura y te ahorras el parking. Aconsejable aparcar por los alrededores y no mover el coche. Totalmente céntrico
The staff, with some exceptions, seemed to be angry all day and the beds and pillows have given everything, time to change them. And the food, little variety although tasty, which is the important thing.
El personal, salvo excepciones, parecia que estaba todo el día enfadado y las camas y almohadas han dado todo, hora de cambiarlas. Y la comida, poca variedad aunque rica, que es lo importante

Localización estupenda. Todo muy limpio.
The only bad thing I can say is that very little consideration is given to celiacs. They give you gluten free bread but without toast
Lo unico malo que puedo decir que se tiene muy poco en cuenta a los celíacos. Te dan pan sin gluten pero sin tostar

Excelente relación calidad-precio y muy tranquilo
He quedado muy satisfecho con la estancia, especialmente por lo económico que resulta para todo lo que ofrece. Es una opción estupenda en Salou si buscas ahorrar sin sacrificar comodidad.
Ubicación: Aunque no está en el centro histórico, la ubicación es fantástica porque tienes muchísimas tiendas y ambiente justo al lado. Es como estar en el centro, con todo a mano.
Tranquilidad: Me sorprendió el silencio en las habitaciones; el ruido exterior se escuchaba muy bajito, lo que permitía descansar de maravilla.
Instalaciones: El restaurante es nuevo, muy amplio y estaba impecable. En general, la limpieza de todo el hotel y de las habitaciones es de diez.Comida buena de calidad.
Food: The food was very good, although as a suggestion, they could add a little more variety to the buffet.
Comida: La comida estaba muy buena, aunque como sugerencia, podrían añadir un poco más de variedad al buffet.
