Hotel Esperit Roca

Hotel Esperit Roca occupies an elevated position on the mountain of Sants Metges in Sant Julià de Ramis, a few kilometres from Girona. The setting combines open countryside, silence and views across Girona and l’Empordà, with a 360-degree outlook from the summit. It offers a calm base for exploring the wider Costa Brava area while remaining close to the city.

The hotel has 15 rooms, each designed with natural materials to sit comfortably within the surrounding landscape. The rooms are intended as peaceful, comfortable retreats, with views across the Girona area. Gardens and an outdoor swimming pool add to the sense of space, while the quiet hilltop setting suits stays focused on rest and time away from busy urban surroundings.

Food is central to the hotel’s character. Restaurant Fontané serves traditional Catalan cooking with an honest, carefully finished approach. Its menu is connected to the region’s culinary roots, making it a suitable choice for guests looking for local cooking rather than a formal international style. Breakfast is served as a buffet, with locally sourced, artisanally prepared products and broad views towards l’Empordà.

The property also brings together several elements beyond accommodation and dining. A gym and spa provide space for wellness, while the Esperit Roca distillery and an exhibition are part of the wider experience at the castle. These facilities give the hotel added interest for guests who want to combine a rural stay with food, design and cultural activities without leaving the site.

Hotel Esperit Roca is suited to couples, independent travellers and anyone seeking a quiet base near Girona with a strong connection to Catalan cuisine. The combination of elevated scenery, natural materials, gardens, pool and wellness facilities gives the hotel a restful atmosphere, while Fontané provides a clear local identity. It also works for an overnight stop or a longer escape built around dining and the surrounding landscape.
