SO you’re planning a birding trip<\/strong> or bird tour<\/strong> to the Ebro Delta<\/strong> and you’ve been searching the internet for some suitable accommodation<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

You’re looking for en-suite rooms, in a clean, attractive, well-kept and efficiently run establishment, close to where the birds are?<\/p>\n

Something with local character, as long as you don’t have to pay through the nose for it?<\/p>\n

Somewhere with a relaxed atmosphere and in attractive settings?<\/p>\n

What took you so long to find us? Birdinginspain.com has been showing fellow birders around northeast Spain (Catalonia and Aragon) since 1996 and has enough experience of hotels to know which establishments offering accommodation<\/strong> are the ones that birders would choose<\/strong> if they knew about them.<\/p>\n

If you look at the Ebro Delta itineraries<\/strong> on the Birdinginspain.com website<\/a> you’ll see our two choices for this great birding hotspot: the Delta Hotel and Lo Moli de Rosquilles.<\/p>\n

The Delta Hotel<\/strong> is a family-run, single storey 3-star hotel on the northern side of the River Ebro. It’s ideal accommodation for birders with families (pool, lounge, nice grounds etc. – we stayed there with our kids in August 2006) and also for those who are keen to start birding within a short distance of the hotel. They also serve excellent fish and seafood-based local dishes (my wife’s favourite is the black rice).<\/p>\n

Lo Moli de Rosquilles<\/strong> is not in the delta itself, but is ideally situated for birding both the Ebro Delta and els Ports massif<\/strong> (an unbeatable combination of birds and scenery). It’s rural accommodation<\/strong> at its best, its heart being a restored olive mill. If you’re birding, but also have a soft spot for local tradition and history, then this is the place for you.<\/p>\n

Inland, a 45-minute drive more or less from the northern half of the Ebro Delta, is the Casa Ecol\u00f3gica<\/strong> in the remote and peaceful village of La Fatarella<\/strong>. It’s more of a hostal than a hotel, which makes it a more economical proposal for those who have to keep an eye on what they’re spending, although there are also 6 twin or double rooms available for more personal or intimate accommodation. The building is made of the local stone, and Black Wheatears can be found just down the road!<\/p>\n

But don’t take my word for it, have a look for yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
