Amazing location, super helpful/nice staff, and good food. The hotel looks great and is clearly well maintained after their renovation a few years ago. Highly recommend. In particular, the rooftop pool and bar has an unparalleled view and is great for families.

Best hotel in Tossa. Great location near some really good restaurants. The rooms and hotel are very clean. We had breakfast one day at the hotel which was 25 euro. It was good. The rooftop pool is nice and the bar makes good drinks with an amazing view.

The hotel is beautiful and very well maintained.
Our only concern was with parking. The hotel lot is offsite and was full so we had to find other parking which was difficult especially with the very narrow roads.

C'est un bel hôtel, mais rien de spécial du côté des chambres. À refaire je trouverais quelque chose dans le quartier directement où l'ambiance médiévale est plus présente.

Honnêtement tout est beau mais le coût ne vaut pas les quelques 100$ supplémentaires. Surtout que la climatisation a arrêté au milieu de la nuit et qu'il faisait très chaud. Lorsque j'ai reporté le tout on m'a dit que c'était ma faute et que j'ai dû enlevé la clée qui active les lumières et le reste (nous n'avons pas déplacé la clée tout le séjour).

Les services sont tous des ajouts. Le spa et le parking pourrait tout aussi bien être inclu dans le montant affiché. Ça ne change pas grand chose, mais c'est dommage de devoir payer encore une fois qu'on arrive.

Bref c'est beau et sur le bord de la plage mais toute la ville est sur le bord de la plage.

Absolutely loved this hotel and the staff was amazingly accommodating! They were very helpful in answering all of our questions via messaging through the Expedia app prior to our stay. During our stay they were so welcoming. They also helped to arrange transportation to the Barcelona airport upon our departure & even packed us a picnic breakfast since we had to leave before breakfast service began.

The views from our room and from the hotel pool were absolutely beautiful. The loungers by the pool are super comfortable. And everything is nearby. There are a ton of places to eat within steps of the property. The castle is also an easy walk.

Hands down if we ever make it to Tossa de Mar again, I will absolutely stay here again. It was perfect! I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel!!!

The view was amazing. The reception, bar, wait staff and doorman were all great. There may have been things that were not perfect, but the location and views more than made up for it. The breakfast was simple, but very good every morning. I stayed only 3 nights, but I want to make this place an annual routine now.

Probably one of the best hotels in the Tossa Del Mar area. Beautiful installations, the spa was really nice and clean. The ocean facing balcony room was beautiful and comfortable. Really good and fresh breakfast with plenty of staff always walking around, helping and cleaning up. Amparo the bartender was super friendly with me and my wife; made the best drinks and gave us tons of tips on places to go and restaurants around always with a friendly smile. There was this kid in the front, i am not sure his name is spelled “Yan” or “Jean” of German background; he walked us all the way to our car whenever my wife felt hesitant to walk alone, he helped us with our bags and also gave us super friendly advise on where to go and wha to do. Would definitely go back to Elizabeth by the Sea as per their installations but specially because of their amazing staff! Two thumbs up!

Outstanding choice! We were met at the hotel car park to ensure we got in ok and helped with our luggage. The hotel staff were super friendly and ensured we had everything we needed for a super relaxing stay. The pool, bars and dining areas were all great and the room more than met our expectations ! Most of all, the luxurious and comfortable bed was the best! We had a sea view room and would recommend to take in the ocean sunrises

This hotel is beautiful! The staff really made our stay wonderful though. Pepe on the rooftop bar was lovely, our waiter Christian was superb and the chef (named Ema or Emmet perhaps?) was so kind to prepare something especially for my partner who has unfortunate allergies when the dish he wanted was sold out. All around it was beyond a 5* service.
Also, we had massages with Elizabeth who worked wonders on my tense shoulders.
I would 100% recommend a stay here.

Lovely hotel in lovely town

Amazing stay, wish we could have stayed longer. The hotel is gorgeous and in a great location right on the beach. The views are amazing from the rooftop. They gave us each a free drink ticket upon arrival. We did not have time to go to the spa, I wish we could have stayed longer. The hotel was clean, well appointed, nice lounge with piano music, good breakfast. We drove a rental car there - the parking lot is a few blocks from the hotel, but it was not difficult. We called the front desk and they opened the gate to let us in. If you need to park you should let the hotel know ahead of time.

My girlfriend and I were skeptical after booking as we both read negative reviews. We both disagree with MUCH of what people had to say.

We were extremely happy with our stay. We stayed in a Comfort Double / Twin Room with Balcony and Sea View. The rooms were beautiful. Yes, for your \"sea view\" you have the parking lot in front of you, but the view of the castle and beach is still breathtaking. The bed was comfy, blackout curtains, and bathroom was nice. Small room, with not a lot of storage space, but that's the only downside. All we needed the room to sleep in and recoup once or twice a day, so we didn't mind the size.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Courtyard was extremely peaceful with a downstairs bar. Rooftop pool was just enough of what we needed. Not a huge pool, but was not crowded in there during our stay. The lounge chairs on the rooftop are comfortable and all have an umbrella (should you wish to use). The rooftop bar and service was very professional and quick, although we wished at one point someone was coming around to see if anyone needed anything. Still, they were quick, delivered your snacks / drinks to where you were sitting and were very friendly.

Spa access was a nice amenity (if you like that kind of thing). Sauna, steam room, cold plunge, mini jacuzzi (wasn't heated), and a bunch of comfy spa lounge chairs.

Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would come back again.

Check in was easy. Definitely didnt realize if you have a car, parking isn't included and its a charge. Unfortunately their lot was full so we had to fond alternative parking and it was far. Upon arrival to our room, everything was clean and fresh nothing negative about the cleanliness. The inly negative is there was no welcome info about hours of bar, pool, breakfast and etc. so we had to keep asking for information. They also did not prepare us for needing separate cards for pool towels and it one card per towel. Why we were not given these upon check in ? Other than those minor details we had an amazing time with our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. We particularly enjoyed the spa, which was very relaxing, and we had a great view of the sea from our hotel room. The staff (particularly doormen) we’re amazing and provided great service. One thing to note is that the hotel did not provide us with bottles of water, and we had to pay several euros to purchase them. Considering it is a 5 star hotel, it would be nice if they would provide this. Otherwise, we had a great, relaxing stay and would not hesitate to come back!

Amazing location, terrible overall

While I want to love this place because of location and lobby aesthetic, it’s full of problems… There is no desk (not suitable for any computer work), no drawers at all (clothing was a mess on a shelf), no bedside table drawers (no place for PJs, etc so it was just a mess on a table), A/C is controlled remotely and barely worked at all (we were miserably hot constantly and called down 6 times for a thermostat override), sat at the bar being intentionally ignored for 15 mins until we had to leave for dinner. The gym advertised on the website wasn’t open (until May!). Maid service on one day: took our room key, didn’t leave any towels so I got out of the shower to have nothing to dry off on, left no coffee pods so we had to call down and wait for them.

We liked the decor but overall felt the hotel was quite souless. During our stay we didn't see one person using the ground floor bar or lounge area. The breakfasts were okay but the service was chaotic with too few staff to assist with hot drinks. Coffee machine was constantly breaking down. The rooftop pool was very cold and univiting. The staff were generally quite helpful but not particularly friendly. Overall we believe this hotel is not currently worthy of its five star rating

Beautiful hotel by the sea

We had an incredible stay at Elisabeth by the Sea in Tossa de Mar. The location is unbeatable—right in front of the sea, so you can walk to the beach in just a minute and reach the charming medieval town in about five minutes.
We arrived late, but the receptionist made our check-in quick and easy, giving us all the details about breakfast and the hotel’s facilities, which was much appreciated after our long trip.
We initially booked a comfort room, which was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and had a stunning front-facing view of the sea. Although the room was a bit small for us, we decided to upgrade to a deluxe room. The upgrade was well worth it—the deluxe room was spacious, elegantly decorated, and truly felt like a five-star experience. A big thanks to Conchi at reception for being so helpful and accommodating with our requests.
Although we didn’t use the spa, we checked it out and found it to be very nice, with a small pool, sauna, and steam room—great for relaxation.
Breakfast each morning was very good. While there weren’t a ton of options, the chefs were more than willing to prepare special requests. Chef Suyin was amazing, always cheerful and attentive, making sure we started our day with a smile. Ezequiel was also fantastic—always busy serving customers and keeping the dining area spotless. His hard work didn’t go unnoticed.
The hotel’s interior is stunning, but the rooftop pool is definitely the highlight. The views from up there are amazing.
