Allsun Hotel Riviera Playa

“good for 1 or 2 night stay..”

Booked here for 1 night,so didn't have far to go for the early morning flight,this is in the German area of Palma,so 95% of guests are German. The aquarium is only about 8 min walk away,so great for a day out with family before you fly home. The rooms are clean,but the bathroom really could do wit… more

Booked here for 1 night,so didn't have far to go for the early morning flight,this is in the German area of Palma,so 95% of guests are German. The aquarium is only about 8 min walk away,so great for a day out with family before you fly home. The rooms are clean,but the bathroom really could do with a new one putting in(reminded me of a bathroom from the 1980's!).The staff were polite and helpful,and the pool is nice with a walk way straight on to the beach. Cheap places to eat nearby,bars cafes etc..but in the evening,quite a few loud drunk Germans stagging around the area,so ok for a night or two as a pitstop for a early morning flght.

“Cheap room, fine for a night”

Upon arrival I waited for 5 minutes while the receptionist was on the phone. That was fine, but then check in took a further 10 minutes (even after booking through booking.com with all details pre filled-in) You are then made to sign 2 documents which are in Spanish (obviously) and German only.

Upon arrival I waited for 5 minutes while the receptionist was on the phone. That was fine, but then check in took a further 10 minutes (even after booking through booking.com with all details pre filled-in) You are then made to sign 2 documents which are in Spanish (obviously) and German only. I enquired what they were for but the receptionist couldn't speak enough English to tell me. Her lack of English didn't bother me (I'm in Spain, after all) but I would've thought an English translation would be appropriate. From the night I spent there, Can Pastilla is frequented by mainly German holidaymakers, and so this made more sense retrospectively. Breakfast is included, but you must pay for WiFi 5€ for the day and 15€ for the week, I think. If you would like the remote for the TV, you'll need to pay a 10€ deposit too. The room was basic. Nice balcony with ocean views, clean, 2 single beds that were a little soft. Check out is til 11 which is nice. Breakfast wasn't very nice, but there's plenty of options around. The location is great if you want to party, but loud and busy if you don't.

“...not the best aroud the area...”

We stayed here four nights, from the 27th of April until the 1st of May 2012.

We stayed here four nights, from the 27th of April until the 1st of May 2012. The hotel is not too bad, the staff is very nice and helpful, the buffet for breakfasts and dinners are quite good (...but you must try typical restaurants around there!) These are the problems in my opinion: there's not remote control for tv (if you really need it, you'd better bring your own universal one, if you have!). No air-conditioning: it was not a real problem during springtime, but it may be during summertime. If it's too windy there's an excessive draught under the balcony's door. We had to put our luggages to reduce it. The real problem is the presence of rude and bad-mannered german guys. They used to stay under our room shouting, laughing and drinking beer, and whenever they went back to their own rooms they always shouted too much.
