Just come back from above Hotel on Costa Brava. The room we stayed in (227) had some accessible facilities. Room size was reasonable. Kitchen facilities and benches were not lowered. Seperate bathroom with level access shower and fold down shower chair. Two handrails for toilet. They werent exactly space age and would only suit someone who was able to transfer with support from one other and had some balance (my opinion) Ramps into hotel and down to pool were quite shallow and not the usual 'face of the eiger' type. No pool access though.
Resort of Callella is quite accessible although a lot of shops and restaurants have steps into them. Train into barcelona is not accessible at all from what I could see although there were lifts at most stations. No idea how you would get onto train if you use a wheelchair, so it may require a request for ramps. Went to Nou Camp and it seemed geared up for wheelchair access. Same for the tour bus that does all of Barcelona.
Thanks

Thanks for your report Daveym, which company did you go with? It`s many years since I stayed on the Costa Brava. I stayed in Malgrat and Lloret. What is the beach like at Callella is it accessible?
Arranged it myself through Easyjet and wintersunshine holidays.com for the room. Really good site although they dont have much info on how accessible rooms are etc. I think this hotel is with Skytours although on the HT review site it is a different company. Beach is reasonably accessible, although it would depend on where you were staying as to how long it took to get onto it. The beach is cut off by the railway and so you need to find an accessible underpass. from memory I cant remember where they were and how many, but there were wooden walks on most parts of the beach.
Thanks
David
Yes, I`d forgotten about the railway. When I stayed in Magrat we had to walk over the rails. It was a very long time ago and I was fit then!
