We had booked the Citea hotel through Catalan Sports tours and have now been moved to the Malibu Beach

Any reasons as to why you have been moved ?

Overbooking at the Citea, there is 8 of us now in Canet - Complex looks quite good though.

unless they have been told different to us, it's because of the reasons on my earlier post, I believe Catalan sports tours is the business partner of CFW tailor made travel, who we have booked through.

sorry for butting in on this,but it stinks.I've been 3 times to Perpignan (Warrington),the 1st time we booked with this company and stayed at the Malibu.Its a nice enough hotel/resort,but its a good 25-30 minute walk into Canet along a main road.Its in the middle of nowhere!!.
The 2nd time,we sorted our own flights and hotel.(stayed at Kyriad).No probs.
The 3rd time,we sorted our own flight,but they sorted out the Kyriad for us.1st night was fine.Saturday,day of game,we went out at 11am,got back at 2am next morning,to find,that our rooms had been given to a number of American backpackers!!and that we had been moved to l'hotel de la loge.

My advice for those staying at Malibu would be to check in and walk into Canet and the beach,it is quite nice and classy.On the day of the game,get taxis into Perpignan about dinnertime and spend the day there.Also stay for a few hours after the game and get taxis back.

If you've not ben before,enjoy it and good luck for the game.

For price and location the De la Loge is king!
