“Great hotel! Real 5* Service and amenitiee, location not an issue”

Located across the north city center (5mns to Macarena hood) in the former Expo 92 area and near the Magica Island park near the river, the hotel is attached to the convention center and is made of 3 circulars towers, each of 4 floors high and with circa 24 rooms per floor. The buildings are connected thru a very large and modern corridor, and the massive lobby is hosting as well across different areas the 2 restaurants (Inc breakfast one) and some stores. We were in room #2333, overlooking the main entrance and toward the river 200m away. Plenty of ceiling lights, the room was about 35 sqm, bathroom had a large walk-in shower, and an espresso machine, in addition of the large enclosure in the entrance were we could store the content of our 3 suitcases. The room was modern, with USB sockets near the bed head, a huge opening couch as 2nd bed for our son. The room was clean, modern and probably renovated less than 10 years ago. Upon arrival the English speaking receptionist gave us breakfast free of charge, as a gesture, and daily were giving us, wither crisps or even chocolate truffles, what an attention, real 5* ! The hotel has 3 pools, 1 laaaaarge fully outdoor, closed outside of the season, 1 kid pool outdoor and 1 indoor pool that has a 2nd outdoor part accessible thru an opening in the large glass-wall. This one was at 27c all day long, and water was perhaps 26c on the outdoor part, great equipment ! The down part was that they didn't tend the external pool part chairs outside for 20 hours: we could see towels left by our previous day pool neighbours the day before, or some drinks glasses left there long after the customer checked out. Pity when you know that there is someone on towels duty from 10h to 22h daily at the indoor pool. The streets around the hotel have plenty of free parking space, however they get free only after 6pm. This make it easy to come here by car, and even commute to the city by car and park in underground car parks (2 euros / hr) in the city, taxi is about 10 to 15 euros 1 way. Hotel parking is 18 euros a day. The breakfast is off really really good quality and high standard, the choice is huge, it includes show cooking. Coffee is their weak side, while juices are top fresh, made on demand. Building #2 has a weakness, albeit it is the closest to the river with good views toward the town, since it is a circle type building,  and with a huge light well from roof to lobby, all the lobby noises resonate heavily. Morning during breakfast are the worst, considering there might be 100s people, but as well night time, we were woken up by very noisy guests at 1am who were at the restaurant, and security wasn't toning them down. So ask for another building it will be further away from lobby and much much quieter I believe. Other than that, this is a great venue, with exceptional service and attention to customers. Thank you to David for helping us with our luggages on the check in and way out, and to Beatriz the lady from the tourism info point at the entrance and all the hotel staff, you all made our stay one to remember. We will come back !

We were there for an international convention. The hotel doesn’t stand up to it’s five stars. Also the open wiring and the cleanliness in the left elevator of building 2 could be a lot better. The overall stay gives a worn out impression and courtesy water only on the first day. Mould in the bathroom and unvacumed floor after the first day.
