The building is that of a typical end-of-the-19th century Catalan Inn, devoted to changing the carthorses of the carriages.
This privately owned hotel belongs to the Ventura Teixidor family, who have been hoteliers for 6 generations. The first records of the hotel date from 1858, and in 2008 the hotel will celebrate 150 years of opening.
The swimming pool is located in the upper part of the Inn's grounds, in the part called the Turell. You get there via the gardens along a dry river bed going uphill and ending up at some steps. There is a cold-drinks machine, parasols and sun loungers. Due to its high-up position you can get a bird's eye view of Besalú, la Mare de Déu del Mont and the Sagrat Cor.
The Fonda Siquès has an unattended open-air car park for its hotel and restaurant customers right next to the road; with a capacity for about twenty cars and very near the historic centre and Roman bridge.
