“Good all round holiday”

Can’t find many faults great holiday all round, the bar food choice at the pool wasn’t great chips and small pizza, but the food in the main restaurant for breakfast and dinner was very good.

Can’t find many faults great holiday all round, the bar food choice at the pool wasn’t great chips and small pizza, but the food in the main restaurant for breakfast and dinner was very good. Lots of choices all very tasty. The rooms probably reflect the 3 star rating as are a bit small and dated but very clean and the beds very comfortable. Always space round the pool whatever time of day. Good location the terrace bar had a different act on every evening nice atmosphere for chilling out after dinner

“The staff are the heart of this hotel!”

We stayed at the Calypso in September 2024, it was our 4th time there. We have stayed at several hotels in Benidorm but we have found our perfect hotel and would not stay anywhere else.

We stayed at the Calypso in September 2024, it was our 4th time there. We have stayed at several hotels in Benidorm but we have found our perfect hotel and would not stay anywhere else. The location is ideal - not too far from the beach and main bus stops and close to the indoor and outdoor markets and it is positioned right at the end of 'the strip'. The restaurant is large with plenty of seating and the food is lovely - We always had plenty of choice and usually ate too much lol. The pool area is quite large and we never had a problem getting a sunbed - even at midday. The entertainment takes place at the outside bar area at the front of the hotel. I've got to admit that it's not the best but there are so many bars close by it's not a problem. The rooms are ample size with good air conditioning and a free safe and large balcony. No kettle though so take your own or buy one from the indoor market. Guests tend to be more middle aged like us and although there were a few groups of men there they were all well behaved. There were several guests that we recognised and it seems we all visit the hotel at the same time every year which is lovely. The whole hotel is spotless and the staff work very hard. In fact the staff are the heart of the hotel! I've got to mention Samantha on reception who helped us so much, always smiling - the perfect person to welcome people to the hotel. Also Mercher in the restaurant- the happiest person I saw in the whole of Spain! And last but certainly not least - Lawrence the barman at the pool. He works so hard, he never stops yet he is always smiling and nothing is too much trouble for him! Visit Hotel Calypso - you won't be disappointed!

Have give Hotel Calypso 4 stars as can't give 3 1/2 as I rate this hotel 7/10. Would have scored 8 or 9 if rooms were bigger. They are just too small and claustrophobic. Also quite dated including the shocking pink bathroom! Other than that, this is a fine hotel, which appears to have numerous returning guests and I can see why. The staff are very polite and professional. The maids attend every day without fail. The restaurant is a good size and most days found the food ok. Once again, attentive staff who remove plates very quickly. Note as with all servigroup hotels, drinks must be ordered and paid for at mealtimes except breakfast, where the usual juices and fizz are plentiful. Plenty of lifts, albeit too small. Best part of this hotel for me is the pool area, Really good size. Plenty of sun all day and most importantly, plenty of sunbeds. Really was never a problem getting one. The pool is a fair size with a proper deep end to it and a nice poolside bar to go with it. As said, I can understand why so many return here and if the rooms were bigger, I might have but not for me but a fine hotel all the same.
