    This place is very nice, and the staff are extremely helpful, doing everything to make your stay more enjoyable. After a long day driving from Germany in heavy traffic, it was great to come to this small quiet village, and be greeted by the staff. The room was nice and the beds comfortable, we had a meal in the evening and breakfast in the morning. Everything very good. The manager suggested that we go see a small medieval village nearby, which we did the next day. Definately recommended if you are in the area. We will come here again next time we are in the area.

    Hot water took a long time to come through in the bathroom.

    It's such a charming hotel with lovely friendly and helpful staff. Whoever designed and furnished the hotel has a wonderful eye for detail and the same can be said for the meals which were a delight. Good food, well cooked and beautifully presented. We also loved the village of Terrades which we have driven past on many occasions. Lovely old streets full of interesting houses, pots of plants and it is so very, very cared for and clean.

    Nothing - perhaps our fault that we didn't have enough time to stay a bit longer....

    From the arrival up to the moment of departure we absolutely loved this place. It's a family run business. The dad greats you, shows you where to park and helps with the suitcases - this all in a very friendly manner. You just feel at home from the first minute. The room is immaculate: beautifully decorated, nice linen, comfy bed, lovely smelling room and so is the bathroom and its separately toilet. It you stay here having dinner at their restaurant is a MUST. The tables are nicely set with white clothes and high quality glassware. The card is small but exquisite the food which is served and prepared with so much dedication. Nice starters with bread from the local bakery, the main course is excellent and the desert is not to be missed. This all is cooked by the son and his partner proved to be a fantastic hostess too! We left very early and didn't have chance to taste the breakfast although it very kindly was offered to us - even outside the normal breakfast hours. LOVED LOVED LOVED it!

A gorgeous room with a rich solid wooden floor, warm atmosphere and warmer underfloor heating. The royally sized bath the cherry on the cake. Biker friendly with secure motorcycle parking available. Attention to detail was apparent in every corner of the suite with no corners cut.

    A little tricky to find up a tiny street but the host personally took us to the car park area.

    This is a hidden gem. Cleverly decorated with new v’s old designs and the most wonderful light fittings. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious and we couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming stay. If the location fits don’t hesitate to book this!

    There was a bit of an off-odour from the bathroom, but this is common in Spain and did not bother us as we kept the bathroom door closed.

    The village of Terrades makes a great base for exploring the Pyrenees. The two gentlemen who run this small olde-world style hotel are friendly, charming and so helpful. The breakfast was hearty and delicious and Juan Carlos and José Maria made a huge effort to make our New Year's Eve meal one to remember. We cannot thank them enough and warmly recommend La Fornal to anyone visiting this delightful part of Catalonia.

    One night in La Fornal

    Would have been nice to heat up the room before we come. 5° outside and subjective feeling the same in the room was the only "not very warm" part of the welcome. Dinner you either like or not, it is spanish home cooking, I was OK, my wife did not like it, but again, this is subjective and not objective. But we received a nice postre and a great licor after the dinner.The so called "balcony" isn't really a balcony, but that does not change our positive feeling about this place.

    droll and odd but really nice place. Warm and helpful welcome in the evening, it was dark already, and somebody was waiting in front of the hotel to help us find a parking spot and explained us the area. Two really nice old men do the service in the hotel. The room is big, bed is good and heater in the bathroom which is not very common in Spain but helpful when you only have 5° outside. Super breakfast, and we had to leave early (for Spain) , but their anyway did this for us, even we were the only guests. I consider this as a very safe place, also for the car, there is parking close by and it really is only a small moutain village.

    Overnight stay when driving back to England

    Was looking for somewhere to stay when driving back from South Spain to England. Wanted to stop close to the French Border but in Spain and La Fornal fitted the bill. Beautiful traditional Hotel in a lovely village. We were greeted at reception by Joesph and the Boss and were made to feel very welcome. Our room was huge with tradition features. The heating was on as it was a particularly windy and chilly afternoon so we were grateful for that. We decided to have our dinner in the hotel restaurant and it was freshly cooked and delicious, served with a lovely bottle of local white wine. We set off early the next morning 4.30am so can't comment on breakfast although the Boss offered to get up and make us coffee before we left which we politely declined as to early for even the kindest host. Will definitely stay again hopefully when its not so windy and warmer. Thank you again Mr & Mrs Robinson

    The room and the whole place was beautifully decorated and the host made us feel at home from the moment we stepped in. We were travelling with our 2-year old daughter and she also loved the place and how spacious the room was.

    It’s a nice cozy hotel located in the heart of a small rural village, perfect for a romantic weekend in the nature or a hike in the mountains. The room was spacious, just renovated. Bathroom was clean, well equipped, with soft towels and hairdryer. There was separate bath tub and shower. Hotel staff was super nice and friendly. One of the best part was the breakfast. I was not expecting to find a table ready for us in the morning with a lot's of food (salty and sweet). All was cured in details. The only negative thing is that you need the car to get there.
