Sitges, on the Costa Brava, offers a slice of escapism but plenty of fun, too. And it’s brimming with boutique hotels that inject charm and character into the buzzing coastal town. So if you’re busy planning a post-lockdown getaway, Culture Trip has the best options for your hotel in Sitges.

This crescent-shaped seaside resort, just half an hour south of Barcelona, is renowned for its LGBTQ community, international film festival, and popularity with wealthy holiday-makers. Despite its size, it retains an intimate feel, and balances the historic centre and charming beaches with a vibrant nightlife scene.

The Hotel MiM Sitges is a coastal sanctuary. The sun-drenched rooftop bar is an idyllic spot for a refreshing mojito and a dance under the stars, while superior rooms have balconies overlooking the Med. If it’s true relaxation you’re after, look no further than the luxury spa, where the subterranean hydrotherapy circuit includes a Finnish steam room, plunge pools and a neon-lit saltwater pool with decor that looks as if it’s straight out of Atlantis. After a stroll along the beach, you can tuck into Mediterranean-inspired cuisine in the in-house restaurant.

This striking four-star seafront hotel was taken over by the Melia hotel group in 2017 and given a proper polish. Right on the Sitges waterfront promenade, it’s just a few minutes’ walk from the town’s vibrant bar and restaurant scene. In terms of decor, stripped-back rooms feel natural and fresh and are decked out with wooden furniture and potted plants. Most have french doors that open onto private balconies with impressive sea views. The greenery- and cabana-lined Radio Rooftop bar sets the scene for a pleasant evening tipple, while the pool-side snack and oyster bar is the place to refuel after your midday swim.

Its best asset is the outdoor courtyard and garden, home to ivy-twisted trees, a small fountain and pinstripe awnings, perfect for unwinding on a hot summer’s day, or treating yourself to a refreshing cocktail on a tropical evening.
