Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with plenty of storage, kitchen facilities, a huge bathroom, and a spacious balcony, but noise from the corridors can be disruptive at any time of the day. The service seemed happy overall, but some staff members were seen as rude, especially if you were not from Spain. The location was excellent, with easy access to Port Aventura, cafes, shopping areas, and the beach. The dining experience provided rich and good standard food options, though some felt the areas for relaxing were lacking. The facilities were well-maintained, and additional amenities like car hire and laundry services were available.
The hotel has a great central location, near both the center of Salou and PortAventura. The rooms are spacious with a cold fridge and a good view from the large balcony, although a bit tight for families. The service is a mix of being helpful and impersonal, with some staff showing reluctance in communication. The dining experience offers both repetitive buffet choices and delightful made-to-order omelettes. The facilities are adequate, with availability of car hire and laundry services.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and well-equipped, although facing a busy road made it a bit noisy on the balcony. Despite this, I slept great every night and enjoyed the spacious balcony with all the amenities we needed.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, perfect for my family of three. The hotel's location was great, close to Port Aventura, the beach, and the center. The service was mixed, with some staff being very friendly, while others were not so welcoming. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some dishes being bland. Overall, a good value for money stay with some room for improvement in service and dining.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable but on the small side. However, the games room with internet access was a nice touch. The service was exceptional, especially with staff who excelled in dealing with diverse nationalities such as mine. The location was great, close to the beach and a peaceful area of Salou. The dining offered a good variety, though some dishes were a bit bland. Overall, a decent stay with both positives and negatives.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, with daily towel changes. However, noise from traffic and neighbors affected our sleep quality. The location, though not beach-close, provides a clean pool area with ample sunbeds. The dining experience offers a great mix of Spanish and English dishes, but drinks are pricey.
