Very nice hotel for the price you pay. The rooms are a bit basic but they are nice with working Aircon so we slept well. The rest of the hotel was well-maintained and looked quite nice. Staff were also polite and helpful and the breakfast was sufficient and varied a little each day. There was a noisy drunk girl one night shouting and banging on peoples` doors which was annoying but not the hotel's fault. Thanks for a great stay!

The rooms were pretty much awful. To start with, the bed covers had holes in them, no duvet just old blankets if it’s cold. The AC did not work at all and our room was freezing the whole time. We booked a double room ideally with a double bed but just came as 2 singles, it was our anniversary thought a relaxing get away would be nice but couldn’t even sleep next to each other as you’d fall through the middle of the single beds. The bathtub had no bath plug. The water pressure in the shower was poor and very difficult to keep it the same temperature no matter how much you change it to hot and cold. Bathroom just looked very old. The rooms are paper thin, we had a lot of school kids turn up our second night (we only stayed for 3 nights), all surrounding our room. We had one across and one right next to us as well as another next to the next door neighbour. They were too loud very disrespectful, running and screaming down the halls and when reception were told they did not care. Also could hear people below us past 23:00pm, they had loud music and thumping after the downstairs bar shuts, can only feel sorry for their below neighbours. The tv only has around 2 English channels and they constantly glitch so pointless having it on and also no tv remote needing a €10 deposit? No kettle, tiny pillows. We weren’t exactly expecting anything too fancy for a 3 star hotel but fairly disappointed. We paid for all inclusive, the staff in the restaurant were polite however the food was not great. Only enjoyable thing was the breakfast and the snack toasties. The swimming pool area was okay however not many lounge chairs and the pool was awfully too cold, next to no one would get in. Another problem was if you don’t bring cash it’s very hard to find a card machine that accepts most English banks/ cards to get cash out for a deposit for a cup around the pool or inside bar. The drinks were okay bur extremely sweet or too much alcohol to the point it’s not enjoyable. Definitely wouldn’t bring kids here as you’ll get no sleep, the rooms are tiny, food is naff, the pools are not suitable and the rooms are freezing. Would like to come to Lloret de Mar again but unfortunately not to this hotel. It’s a shame as I don’t usually feel the need to write reviews but was a little disappointed with this hotel. However the area around was very nice, around a 10 minute walk to the beach, lovely views and nice restaurants and cocktails by the beach. Lovely shops to walk past and lovely food.

We are here right now! This hotel is clean and tidy the maids come in every day make the beds (lovely fresh white bedding) leave fresh towels, if I’m being picky two large towels would be nice you get one large two medium one small but I’m picking, all areas of the hotel are clean. The restaurant is also clean food was good, a nice selection for all, would be nice to have juice and tea/coffee for lunch and dinner not just breakfast but we will live. For the bar you need €1 for your cup would be nice if they gave you a fresh cup not just rinced out the one you give them, some bar staff do done don’t, cheese toasty also available from the bar. If you want your TV remote that also €10 from reception, there’s also a deposit for the safe. Pool area is good the sunbeds could do with replacing quite a lot are broken in the middle, and as it’s only a small pool area not many beds but they don’t have more space. We haven’t visited their second building. It’s a five min walk to the beach and shops which are lovely, great selection of restaurants along the front and the walk round from the castle is stunning (lots of stair!) there are boat rides from the beach and sunbeds to hire on the beach for €10. Also the bus stop is right outside where you can grab a bus to Barcelona, we haven’t been on this trip but I’ve been before it’s stunning. There’s a stag group here and they can be rather loud round the pool but there having a good time but at times we just went to relax on the beach. I have stayed at 5* hotels which have been just as good at blue sea. Just need to see their late room check out deal……

Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Food is 3 star however there's plenty of choice and each dining experience was extremely organised. Room was adequate and cleaned to a high standard each morning. Upon checking out Violetta and Niko on reception were very knowledgeable and helpful regarding details of my transfer after having a 10am checkout and transfer not arriving until 8.15pm. All in all it has been a great trip and great value for money paid. Would definately reccomend a visit and fab location within a 2 minute walk to the beach front with an array of shops bars etc.

So this hotel has extremely mixed reviews and I can to a certain extent understand but for the most part we really enjoyed it. From the off it's a budget hotel, we paid less than £160 for flights and 3 nights all-inclusive which is pretty cheap. The rooms are basic, but have all the essentials needs. The shower was abit dated and went hot and cold with no consistent temperature but that was probably the worst bit. The food was average, it wasnt amazing but it certainly wasn't rubbish. Fresh fish served every lunch and dinner which would cost a fortune in the UK. Fried eggs at breakfast which again isn't cheap, all of which tasted very nice. The phase 'the food is very samey' is mentioned alot but at the end of the day it's a budget all-inclusive so you can't expect gourmet food. The pizza was hit and miss, more miss than hit but it definitely wasn't awful. You get a good selection of alcohol and again factoring in the price it was very good. Staff were good and friendly, we originally didn't like the view from our balcony so requested a new room, which they gave us willingly. It is quite loud as there are a lot of British stag dos and just people wanting to get drunk so take that into consideration as well before booking. The sea is only a 5 minutes walk and it is in a very good location. Overall it was very decent for what it was. Would I return? Probably not but I'm not saying that because I think it's a bad hotel; I'd just spend abit more and get somewhere more upmarket next time. 4/5
