Meal times/queues
The restaurant was far too small for the amount of people staying there…we missed two breakfasts because the queues were too long. Also evening meal started at 7.30 which I think is far too late when you’re planning on taking children out afterwards. Apart from that, everything else was good.

Adequate facilities for a 3* hotel. Food options could be improved. Altho’ the public areas have been modernised our room was quite drab & would benefit from a facelift. Staff were polite & mainly efficient, hotel seems geared twds Spanish clientele, no English tv channels in room & entertainment quite poor.

Cannot fault the Staff, cleanliness and rooms. Housekeeping was fantastic. The only downside for us was that the breakfast was not anywhere near hot enough, we were also expecting a separate section to dine in as we had booked a penthouse room but this was not offered on any occasion as described. We would recommend this hotel to others because of all its positives they just need to re look at the breakfast service, we cannot comment on the other meals as we were only bed and breakfast

A good hotel problems with towels left on sunbeds
The hotel was Great and The food okay with a good choice.But sometimesha ing to qué because part of dinning area closed off for a group.like al hotels in Spain they need a attended to allocate sunbeds on first come first served basis as many people put towels on beds around the pool.Then only spend 2 hours laterin the day.So sun beds empty mist of the day taken by selfish people .If all hotels had the life guard allocate beds and no towels allowed to save beds.It would solve this problem in all hotels so why don't they all do it. The rest of the hotel was great but no entertainment at night in this hotel

Great hotel, with perfect location
Just back from a great week’s holiday. Pool area was just right for our family, two great pools, sun beds all around, poolside bar and pool tables to keep kids entertained. All was lovely and clean. We went full board and there was a great selection of food for all meals. One downside was that there were no drinks offered at lunch and dinner so had to buy bottles of water / other drinks at the bar. There were plenty of water / juices / hot drinks on offer with breakfast though. Rooms were cleaned daily and were fine for what we needed as a base. Staff were all very helpful and easily booked us a taxi at reception on the morning of our flight which arrived within minutes to take us to the airport. The location of the hotel was perfect - one of the closest to Portaventura so an easy 10 minute or so walk there and then about a 10 minute walk in the other direction to the beach, restaurants and nightlife. Had a great stay and would definitely return again

Half board was really good, food was very nice , my only problem was we had to pay €5 per day for a tiny fridge in our room, which was already there but locked till you pay, also the hotel gym was €5 for half a day and didn’t do a weekly pass , which most people go on holiday for , only did a monthly pass.. Also the air con system was directly over the head of the bed, crazy location to put it, when on at night it was so cold coming right down on top of you and we ended up with sore throats from it . Apart from them things it was ok, pool area really good, no queuing in morning for beds like other hotels around.

Staff were helpful. Rooms cleaned everyday. Room was a bit small but not a huge issue. The lifts are very small and take some time to come to you. Swimming pool is gorgeous. Only thing that was bad was the breakfast, only ate there once and didn't enjoy. Overall, a nice hotel and would go back.

Quick Weekend Getaway
The hotel staff was extremely rude in the restaurant. However, the price of the hotel was cheap, the breakfast buffet was included and it was next to everything so I can't really complain about the rest. Anyhow, I probably wouldn't eat at the buffet again given how I was treated but everything else was fine.

I have never stayed in a hotel that doesnt provide an iron and ironing board on request or in the roon until i stayed here. Was told we would have to go across the street to laundromat, pretty ridiculous to be honest, walls were paper thin, could hesr everything in the corridor & rooms next to us, going to the toilet etc,lighting in the room cosisted of 2 wall lamps, which was less than ideal,room was clean ,location was good but definitely would not stay here again.
