Sitges is a beach resort west of Barcelona and a good spot to escape from the rain and gloom of the British summer. It’s about 45 minutes by train from Barcelona. The town centre is quite busy, so I opted to stay just outside, about 10 minutes walk away. Hotel Los Globos is set one street inland from the beach and promenade, which is literally about a minute’s walk away. The quiet residential area is lovely and peaceful. Phiippe, the owner, was really friendly and wecoming. We had a good chat about the Far East, where he used to own property and I even had a chance to practise my French because he’s a transplanted Frenchman. He was able to give me some good tips about Sitges and recommended a good Catalan restaurant for dinner, where the locals dine. My room was comfortable with a nice balcony — being on the second floor, there was a nice breeze. Inside the room, there’s air conditioning. It was also nice to find some English channels on TV, making it possible to keep an eye on the quickly developing story about the massacre in Norway that weekend. The hotel has a bar open all day, where the continental style breakfast is served in the morning. Reception for the free wifi is strongest downstairs. There’s a generous sandy beach with cabanas and sun loungers for hire. The water was cool but not cold. The wide promenade is great for strolling and I found some great spontaneous entertainment on the weekend I was visiting — the incredible ‘floating snake charmer’ street performer(photos posted) and a percussion band getting people’s toes tapping and dancing shoes on. Sitges was a good fun resort and the Hotel Los Globos a good base to explore
