The 188-room GHT Costa Brava is a family-friendly, mid-range hotel located a five-minute walk from Tossa’s main beach. Most rooms are dated, but all are spotlessly clean and feature free Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, and flat-screen TVs. However, expect fees for in-room mini-fridges and safes. The big outdoor pool is pleasant, and guests get free access to a great spa with aquatic therapy areas and reasonably priced massages. A full entertainment program is available in the summer, which includes fitness activities during the day and dance performances in the evening. Food gets consistently good reviews, but the restaurant is in the basement and can get loud during peak season. Couples wanting a quieter atmosphere may want to compare rates at Hotel Delfin, located closer to the beach.

The 166-room Premier Gran Hotel Reymar & Spa is an upper-middle-range property overlooking the beach in Tossa de Mar. Although room decor is nothing special, and the cheapest rooms are small for the price, all units are equipped with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and minibars. Many also have balconies with panoramic sea views. The pool is pleasant and spacious, and it has a hot tub and waiter service. The restaurant offers set menus for lunch and dinner, and smaller bites and cocktails are available at the pool bar. With no entertainment program and no loud music, this hotel is a better option for those looking to relax than for party-hardy travelers. Couples wanting a smaller hotel with more character may want to compare rates at Hotel Diana, also located across the street from the beach.

GHT is a series of Costa Brava chain hotels; this particular mid-range property, situated a five-minute walk from the city beach in a residential neighborhood, is a plain, apartment-like building centered around a small outdoor pool. Standard rooms are simple and somewhat beach-y, with wicker furniture and tile floors. Some basic complaints are not uncommon here, including that walls are thin, tropical-theme decor dated, and amenities scarce. The hotel does, however, suit the needs of many budget travelers looking for a convenient location to the beaches and downtown of Tossa de Mar. Families, in particular, are attracted to the few amenities that do exist, such as the kiddie pool and children's activities.

The 101 rooms at this mid-range property are contained in two hotels -- Tossa Beach Hotel and Hotel Tossa Centre -- operated under one management and separated by a street. The property consists of renovated '70s-era structures with laminate surfaces and tiling throughout -- a bit like a well-kept youth hostel. Food in the all-inclusive package can be repetitive, and drinks may not be the highest quality, but there are many dining options in the immediate area for those desiring additional culinary options. Location is a big draw; the property is situated three blocks from the Platja Gran, Tossa de Mar’s main city beach. Rooms are simple but clean, but Wi-Fi and numerous other amenities require an extra fee.

This lower-middle-range hotel is basic and a generally good value for the area, though it offers little more. Its 322 rooms, situated a few blocks from the beach, are clean for the most part -- however, some rooms have maintenance issues, such as thin walls, poorly functioning plumbing, and general mustiness. There are few amenities here, save for a small outdoor pool and children’s play area. However, the proximity to Tossa de Mar’s main city beach is very convenient, and that -- coupled with the low prices -- lures many vacationing families.

Housed in a gorgeous Modernist building with lovely courtyards and spacious decks overlooking the sea, the 21-room mid-range Hotel Diana is packed with charm. Rooms are cute and airy, with painted floor tiles, big windows, and simple but stylish decor. Free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning and minibars are great perks provided in all rooms. An excellent breakfast is served every morning on a serene terrace with sea views, and small bites are available at the bar during the day. No other amenities are available on-site, but location right in the heart of the old town and across the street from the beach allows for easy access to restaurants, bars, shops, and attractions. This is one of the best hotel choices in the area, but those looking for something a little cheaper may want to consider sister property Hotel Delfin, which features a rooftop deck with a whirlpool.

The 72-unit Aparthotel Porto Drach is a three-pearl option with a prime location overlooking the Port de Manacor. Guests can walk to the beach in two minutes and to the Caves of Drach in four minutes. The area also has shops, restaurants, and bars, and public transportation is easily accessible. Apartments are modern and simple, with kitchens, air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi. Some have large furnished balconies with views of the marina. The restaurant serves buffet-style breakfasts and dinners, but there's no lounge for socializing with other guests. The outdoor pool is a plus, and the nearby beach is lovely. Travelers who would prefer a hotel with more features could check out the THB Felip, which has a sauna, spa, and indoor pool, though is less fresh.

The Monteverde Hotel is a two-pearl, all-inclusive property located within walking distance of Porto Cristo's pleasant beach, marina, and dining options. The hotel itself is in a sorry condition, generally dated and scruffy inside and out, and with quality of facilities to match. Its saltwater swimming pool is decent enough, with a kids' section and plentiful loungers, but it's deep and lacks a lifeguard. There are 120 units, ranging from single rooms to two-bedroom apartments, with an extra charge for even basic amenities. And with dismal buffet dining to boot, there's little to recommend this hotel beyond the cheap price tag. The nearby Aparthotel Porto Drach is another affordable option—it overlooks the marina and is an improvement in every aspect.
