Hotel La Nina in Sitges


After reviewing the bill for yesterday's lunch and now having had a similar lunch, but this time on the sea front at Hotel La Nina in Sitges, I have to say that the meal in Sa Rascassa was expensive. Ignoring the wine, the comparative price for the two meals was 102.60 euros at Rascassa and 70.54 at La Nina. The meals, both at lunchtime, were very, very similar and frankly the quality at La Nina was much, much better. La Nina, right on the sea front, has to compete hard with lots of other restaurants in the area but Rascassa had no competition nearby. There is quite a difference in room price between the two hotels (70 euros and 129 euros) but the quality of La Nina is way, way higher. La Nina cost 27 euros more overall but also includes air conditioning, wifi at no charge in the room, a fabulous sea view from the room (above) and a swimming pool. I have long wondered about finding that little bijou hotel, well off the beaten track and comparing it with something more salubrious. Salubrious wins hands down for me.
