Hostal de la Plaça
A reliable village base with breakfast and parking sorted
About this hotel
Hostal de la Plaça sits in the village of Cabrils alongside its boutique sister property, and tags free breakfast and free parking, useful for compressing the morning routine before the drive out to Illa Fantasia. Room service and a bar round out a property that's straightforward rather than glamorous, and the short walk to a local restaurant means evenings don't require another drive after a tiring day at the water park. Air conditioning covers the basics for the Catalan summer heat, and the village setting is a genuine change of pace from the busier roadside hotel strip elsewhere in the catchment. The strongest fact here: a strong guest rating for a straightforward, no-frills village stay this close to the park.

Our take
This suits a family wanting a reliable, no-frills village base with breakfast and parking already sorted, rather than a larger resort-style hotel. It works well for repeat park-day trips where morning efficiency matters. Families wanting a pool or spa on site should look toward the larger hotels elsewhere in this catchment instead of this simpler guesthouse.
- ✓Book early in July and August; this village guesthouse has fewer rooms than the area's bigger hotels.
- ✓Use the included breakfast to get on the road early toward the Illa Fantasia gates each morning.
- ✓Walk to the nearby restaurant for dinner rather than driving again after a long day at the park.

Why guests love itWe stayed here for a week doing repeat Illa Fantasia visits, and the included breakfast meant a fast, easy start every single morning. The village setting made evenings pleasant too, with a short walk to a real local restaurant instead of another drive after a long day spent mostly queuing for slides. It's the kind of practical detail that only stands out once you're actually living it with tired kids in tow, not something you'd notice from a listing photo alone.
