Had a great stay at El Petit Convent. Hotel is very well situated and just a short walk to the center of Begur. We stayed for a week and used the hotel as a base to explore throughout the Costa Brava. Rooms are very comfortable, clean, modern and, while a bit small, very functional and manageable (and the intent of the stay was not to stay in the hotel room but to be out and about). Breakfast was good with a nice selection of choices and all quite fresh. As we visited in March, it is off season and there were a few other guests but overall quiet. We have to commend, with our many thanks, the assistance we received from Simone, one of the desk staff. She was kind enough to take the time to suggest many restaurants in Begur and in the surrounding towns, but also suggested some flea markets and other stops that would certainly not be in a guidebook. Her recommendations were excellent and definitely made our trip more enjoyable. In regards to some of the other comments, no there is no car park, but it is a medieval town - nothing in the center of Begur has a car park (and we happily respect old school urban planning). There is a large one just a few minutes walk away. Was not inconvenient at all. And if you are seeking to access the beach, the town (again, it is medieval) is situated up on a hill (and topped by the ruins of an old castle with an incredible view). To get the beach is best by car - it's not far to several lovely beaches but far enough (and steep enough) that driving is the best option. If you view the hotel as a base with access to the many shops and restaurants in town, then you'll be very pleased.
