“Clean hotel, great pools”

Great place to stay while in Benidorm. Excellent location next to the main entertainment venues and very close to the beach.

Great place to stay while in Benidorm. Excellent location next to the main entertainment venues and very close to the beach. This was part of a package holiday with Jet2 for £1330 for two of us for five nights half board (including flights from Bristol and transfers). We arrived by 1pm and our room was ready. This was great as it meant we could leave our luggage and start our holiday. It felt however, that we were second class citizens being sent to the other block - Ocas. The room was basic and facing other buildings. Not even a pool view. This didn't matter too much as we only used the room to sleep. Comfortable bed, air con, tv, hairdryer, towels, hand wash, shampoo and shower gel provided. No need to take any notice of bad reviews. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was good. Breakfast 8-10.30; Plenty of fruit, cereals, pastries, cooked breakfast (if you like streaky bacon) and juices. On our depature day, we reserved early (continental) breakfast at 6.15am. Evening meal 7pm onwards: plenty of meat and fish, salads, chips, pizzas, soups, pasta and sweet. Water was the only drink available unless you paid for all inclusive. Fantastic pools. They open at 9. The sun is there all day although surrounded by tall buildings. Be sure to be there early to grab your own sun beds. In mid June, it wasn't too crowded. I really liked the pool bar. €3.65 for a pint of Cruzcampo in a paper cup, cocktails €6.50, €2.70 for a soft drink. Food is also for sale in the pool area. We had a chicken wrap and chips for €7.50. All reasonably priced. We also spent two days on the beach for a change. €6 per sun bed which was worth it, because it's such a nice beach. There were some issues with lifts being out of order. I hope they get these sorted by peak holiday times. During our five days here, they were not seen to. Our room was on floor four, therefore I was happy to walk the stairs if the lifts were busy. Not so easy for elderly people and people with injuries or disabilities. I'm happy to recommend this hotel to others. A very very clean place. I would stay here again because I want to return to Benidorm for the sun and entertainment. However, I'll be looking for a room only accommodation next time, because there are plenty of cheap food outlets in the area.

Hi there folks, this review is going to be written exactly as I experienced it. Firstly, the reception 10/10, quick friendly staff.

Hi there folks, this review is going to be written exactly as I experienced it. Firstly, the reception 10/10, quick friendly staff. The building and rooms etc 10/10 great nice and clean, beds are comfy unless your demoted to the pull out bed which is about as creaky as Oscar pistorious knee joint. The pool area is fantastic, swim up bar is like waiting for a bus, 25 mins to be served as he couldn’t be bothered to walk down the steps so continued to serve people on the other side that wasn’t in the pool, when I did get served my so called strawberry daq it was like an iced batchors cup a soup without the croutons. The food served at the hotel well let me tell you this! If you eat that stuff and your arteries don’t get clogged up or choke or got forbid you get the sqitts, I hope you go see a doctor, that stuff is like clay, the steak was like eating the sole of a workman’s boot, the chocolate milk!! That is NOT chocolate milk that’s battery acid with a splash of gravy granules. It’s a good job the drains have improved I’ll be honest as that stuff will give you a back end like a baboon. My advice, go self catering, at least you’ll live to see the end of your holiday. Jonny Vegas wouldn’t eat that stuff. Stick to the beef curtains.
