HOW TO FIND US
CASA MARIA lies just two minutes from the pretty riverside walk along the Onyar, pictured above. Crossing the river takes you directly to the recently restored town wall, which circles the medieval heart of Girona. The walk along the top of the wall leads to the cathedral, and en route provides panoramic views of the city with the surrounding hills forming a dramatic backdrop.
Casa Maria provides all the comforts you'd expect from a modern apartment, giving easy access to the bustling shopping district of coffee bars and chic boutiques across the river from the old town. We're also within a ten minute walk of mainline train and bus stations. (Depending on your mode of transport, precise directions will be sent with confirmation of your booking.)
GIRONA AIRPORT is just 20 minutes out of town. There's a reliable taxi service from the airport (25 euro fare) as well as car hire from Hertz and Europcar. There's also a direct bus service from the airport into Girona central bus station (5 euro fare) which is a ten minute walk from the B&B.
