About Hotels in Girona

Girona is one of Spain's most beautifully preserved medieval cities, offering a remarkable mix of history, culture, and gastronomy. Walk the ancient city walls, explore the Arab Baths, visit the Cathedral of Saint Mary with its soaring Gothic nave, and dine at world-renowned restaurants that have helped put the Costa Brava region firmly on the culinary map.

From boutique hotels in the atmospheric Barri Vell to modern options along the Eixample, Girona's accommodation scene spans heritage charm and contemporary comfort. The city is highly walkable, and the train station connects visitors swiftly to Barcelona and the wider Costa Brava coast.

Where to Stay in Girona

Barri Vell (Old Quarter)

The historic heart of Girona and the ideal base for first-timers. Steps from the Cathedral, the Arab Baths, and the colourful Case de l'Onyar houses. Atmospheric and supremely central.

Eixample

Girona's refined modern extension, home to elegant boulevards and upscale dining. The best choice for travellers seeking stylish, contemporary hotels with easy access to the train station and city sights.

Mercadal

A lively, creative neighbourhood bordering the old town, known for independent boutiques, café culture, and a bohemian spirit. Excellent for those who want character alongside close proximity to the Rambla de la Llibertat.

Sant Pere

A quieter residential quarter just across the Onyar river, offering good-value stays in a more local setting. Peaceful streets, neighbourhood restaurants, and an easy walk into the historic centre.

Airport and Transport Guide

Girona is served by Girona–Costa Brava Airport (GRO), a regional hub used primarily by low-cost carriers including Ryanair, with connections to destinations across Europe. The airport is linked to Girona city centre by the Sagalés bus service (line 602), with a journey time of approximately 25 minutes; services run to coincide with flight arrivals and departures throughout the day and night.

Within the city, Girona is compact and largely walkable, but local buses operated by TMG (Transport Municipal de Girona) cover the wider urban area. A T-10 multi-journey card offers the best value for visitors making several journeys. Taxis from the city centre to the airport cost around €25–€35; local ranks are found at the train station and Plaça de la Independència. Cabify operates in Girona, though availability is more limited than in larger Spanish cities.

Tips for Finding the Best Hotel Deal in Girona

  • Book at least 6–8 weeks ahead for stays during the Temps de Flors flower festival in May or the Girona Film Festival in autumn, when hotels fill rapidly.
  • Staying in the Eixample or Mercadal neighbourhoods offers lower nightly rates than the Barri Vell, with easy walking or bus access to the old town.
  • Look for hotels that include breakfast — having it on-site saves time when exploring the cathedral quarter and Jewish heritage sites early in the morning.
  • Choose free cancellation rates if your travel dates are flexible, as demand around Girona's festival calendar and long weekends can shift prices quickly.
  • Midweek stays from Tuesday to Thursday tend to be noticeably cheaper than weekends, when visitors arrive from Barcelona and beyond for short breaks.
  • Sign up to loyalty programmes at NH Hotels or Meliá, both of which have a presence in Girona and offer member discounts and early-booking rates.

When to Visit Girona for Lower Prices

Winter (Low Season)

November to February sees cool, quiet days and the lowest hotel prices of the year. The city retains its charm without the crowds, and the medieval streets feel atmospheric in winter light. Expect rates from around £55–£90 per night at mid-range hotels.

Spring (High Season)

March to May is Girona's most popular season, peaking with the celebrated Temps de Flors festival in May when the old town is adorned with floral displays. Book well in advance as accommodation sells out quickly and prices rise sharply.

Summer (Value Season)

June to August brings warm, sunny weather and steady visitor numbers, though Girona is less frenetic than coastal resorts nearby. Prices are moderate rather than peak, making it a comfortable and reasonably affordable time to visit.

Autumn (Value Season)

September and October offer mild temperatures, golden light on the old city walls, and prices easing after summer. Fewer crowds than spring and pleasant conditions for walking the Rambla and exploring the historic Jewish Quarter make this an excellent time to visit.

Popular Areas to Stay in Girona

Barri Vell (Old Town)

Girona's historic heart, home to the Cathedral, the Jewish Quarter, and the colourful houses along the Onyar. The most sought-after location, with premium prices to match.

Eixample

The 19th-century grid district west of the old walls. Girona's main business and commercial zone, with good transport links, practical hotels, and a calmer residential atmosphere.

Mercadal

The bustling market quarter flanking the Onyar river on the western bank. Well-connected and lively, it suits mid-range travellers who want easy access to both old and new Girona.

Sant Narcís

A quieter residential neighbourhood north of the centre, popular with longer-stay visitors. Fewer tourists, lower prices, and straightforward bus connections into the city core.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Barri Vell puts you steps from the Cathedral, the Arab Baths, and the Call Jewish Quarter, but rates are the highest in the city. Eixample is the practical choice for business travel, with easy access to the train station and Girona's commercial streets. Mercadal offers a mid-range middle ground, while Sant Narcís suits budget-conscious visitors happy to take a short bus ride.
Yes, Girona is one of the more affordable cities in Catalonia. Budget options in Eixample and Sant Narcís typically run between £45 and £75 per night. Mercadal can also offer reasonable rates outside peak periods. Note that prices rise sharply in summer, particularly July and August, when Girona's proximity to the Costa Brava drives up demand across all categories.
Eixample and Mercadal are the most family-friendly choices, offering quieter streets, supermarkets, and straightforward access to the Parc de la Devesa, Girona's largest park and a favourite for picnics and cycling. The Museu del Cinema on Carrer Sèquia is also a reliable hit with older children. The Barri Vell's narrow lanes and steps can be tiring with young children, and its bars can be noisy at weekends.
January and February offer the lowest rates, with November and early December also good value. Midweek stays are consistently cheaper than weekends throughout the year, as leisure visitors tend to arrive on Fridays. Avoid booking during the Girona Fires de Sant Narcís in late October, the Temps de Flors flower festival in May, and the Girona Film Festival in late May, when accommodation fills quickly and prices spike.
Girona is an excellent short break, with two to three days enough to explore its highlights. The medieval Jewish Quarter (El Call), the colourful houses of the Onyar riverbank, and the grand Gothic Cathedral are all within easy walking distance of one another. Girona is also well connected by high-speed AVE train from Barcelona in under 40 minutes, making it simple to reach.
Yes, the majority of Girona hotels offer free cancellation rates, which you can filter for easily in the search results above. It is worth booking further in advance during busy periods such as Temps de Flors in May and the summer season, when flexible rooms sell quickly. Free cancellation rates typically carry a 10–15% premium over non-refundable options, but the flexibility is usually worth it.
Hotel Llegendes de Girona Catedral and AC Hotel Palau de Bellavista are two well-regarded luxury options in the city. For reliable mid-range stays, the NH Collection Girona offers consistent quality near the centre. Boutique hotels are concentrated in the atmospheric Old Quarter and along the Onyar riverbank, where restored historic buildings provide a more characterful alternative to larger properties.
The most convenient option is the Sagalés airport bus, which runs directly to Girona city centre in around 25 minutes and connects with Ryanair flight arrivals. Local city buses also serve the route. A taxi takes roughly 20 minutes and costs approximately €25–30. Ride-sharing apps are available but less common here than in larger cities, so pre-booking a taxi is advisable for early or late arrivals.
