Where to stay

Platja d’Aro makes a natural base for a triathlon weekend: arrive the day before, collect your bib without rushing and wake up close enough to reach the start line unhurried. The Baix Empordà and the northern Costa Brava hold several Cycling Friendly certified stays within a short transfer, and they are just as handy for a post-race swim and a proper rest.

RVHotels Golf Costa Brava – Santa Cristina d’Aro, about 7 km from the start. The closest option on our list sits between the first and eighteenth holes of the Costa Brava golf course. It holds the Cycling Friendly Bronze seal, with a secure bike store and a mini-workshop of professional tools, so your set-up is sorted before race morning, and the pool is there for the afternoon after.

Arrels d’Empordà – Palafrugell, about 13 km from the start. A four-star aparthotel with 49 fully equipped apartments, ideal for groups or families travelling together. It offers a video-monitored bike room for storing, cleaning and repairing bikes, a partner laundry that returns kit the same day, and a cafeteria open from 8:00 a.m. with picnic service available on request.

GHT Hotel Neptuno Tossa – Tossa de Mar, about 16 km from the start. A family-run hotel close to the beach and the old town, with a garden, pool and jacuzzi. The Bronze-certified bike area has 15 safety hooks, a work and repair bench, an inflation point and a water wash-down for muddy or salty bikes.

Mas de Torrent Hotel & Spa – Torrent, about 16 km from the start. For riders who want to treat the weekend as a getaway, this restored 18th-century farmhouse is a five-star Relais & Châteaux property with a dedicated cycling centre and a full spa, including massage, to loosen the legs after a long day of racing.

L’Azure Hotel – Lloret de Mar, about 23 km from the start. Certified Cycling Friendly Silver, this central hotel opened in 2021 and offers a secure bike station, lockers, a pressure washer, tools, a gym, spa and heated pool, plus a meeting room for planning routes.
