How to get there

To get to this hotel, you need, naturally, to fly to Catalonia (Spain). As a rule, flights from Russia arrive at one of the international airports in Barcelona or Girona. Fly from Moscow here about four hours. Up to the first air harbor (in Barcelona) about eighty kilometers, and to the second - about forty. If you have a shuttle, there's nothing to worry about. Otherwise you will have to take the train (local "serkanhas") and get to the station Blanes. From Barcelona to go here for an hour and a half, from Girona - about forty minutes. Then by bus you will reach the bus station of Lloret de Mar (it's about a quarter of an hour), from where to the hotel Frigola 3 * just a stone's throw away. It is best to buy a special ticket "bus plus serkanya" - it will be cheaper.

Lloret de Mar

Frigola Lloret 3 * is located in the center of one of the most beachfront resorts on the Costa Brava. This is Lloret de Mar - a place where almost all the youth of Europe are eager to rest. On the local embankment you will meet a very democratic and dissimilar audience, sometimes quite unconventional. But these are the features of this resort. It is also famous for its picturesque surroundings - cliffs of freakish shapes that rise from the clear blue water. If you want to go to the water park, then next to the hotel there is a free bus stop that goes there. The main promenade, which is located near the hotel, is the Marine Boulevard. There you can not only walk along the coast and wander through the shops, but also get drunk from the Canalet Fountain. Then, as the local legend says, you will some day certainly return to Lloret.

Territory and infrastructure

Frigola 3 * (Lloret de Mar) represents three large seven-storey buildings of light beige color.

The hotel has its own territory, where there is a parking lot, a minimarket (there you can buy souvenirs, food, beach accessories and other useful things for guests). Free Wi-Fi is available. In addition, the hotel guests can use the territory of the neighboring hotel "Flamingo", which almost merged with the "Frigola". In the neighboring streets - a lot of cafes and shops, which you can glance on the road to the beach. And at night, there begins a completely different life - incendiary and cheerful, which bubbles until the morning. Five steps from the hotel there is a good supermarket where you can buy everything your heart desires.

Entertainment

Beach holidays

To get to the sea, it is enough to leave the Frigola Lloret 3 * hotel and cross the road. Own beach at the hotel there - but this is a feature of all Spanish coastal hotels.

The swimming pool at the Flamingo Hotel is also allowed. Both ponds are very clean, cleaned there every day.

Excursions

Trips to the surrounding area can be booked both in the hotel and in the special offices, most of which are located on Avenida de les Alegreis. If you want to see the surroundings, then you need to settle in the hotel Frigola 3 *. Costa Brava is the first thing you should look at. To do this you can go on an excursion, and you can just take a bus and go for a scenic serpentine. Very popular is a sea walk along the coast, where you can see the local grottoes. For walking walks this area is also very suitable. By the local rocks are laid many paths that lead to beautiful and comfortable bathing bay. Perhaps in order to go to Barcelona and Girona, you should first take the services of a guide and go on an organized tour. But since all the sights of these beautiful cities in this case you will see only from the bus window and "on the run", then in order to inspect them better, it is worthwhile to go there again, but on your own.
