My stay at the hotel was great overall. The rooms were spacious, well-furnished, and impeccably clean. The service was exceptional with attentive and helpful staff. The location was convenient for exploring the town, even though it lacked a sociable space. The dining options were varied and satisfying. The poolside area was stunning, but the service from staff was below average at times.

I found my room to be large, well-furnished, and very clean. Housekeeping did a fantastic job cleaning and servicing the room daily. There was always a good supply of hot water, and the room was at the end of the passageway, providing a quiet retreat.

Service

The service at the hotel was brilliant. The staff were pleasant, helpful, and attentive without being intrusive. The group activity leaders for children went above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay. However, there was room for improvement in the attitude and availability of staff at the bar.

The hotel's location was excellent for both walking and driving into town. While the poolside area was stunning, the hotel lacked a sociable space for guests to enjoy drinks. The proximity to public transport options was convenient for exploring the area.

Dining

The dining experience was excellent with a wide range of options, including fresh fruit, omelettes, and full English breakfast. However, some cooked options were served cold, which was disappointing. The availability of fresh orange juice was a nice touch.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and had a fantastic view from the balcony, but they seemed outdated and not properly maintained since the 80s. The service was friendly but lacked some helpfulness and knowledge. The location was outstanding, just a short walk from the beach and easy access to the city. The dining was hit or miss, with some excellent options and some disappointing ones.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were large, spacious, and clean, directly overlooking the sea and promenade. However, the balcony area didn't impress me much. The service was excellent, friendly, and extremely helpful, though their English proficiency could have been better. The location was perfect for tourists, with great transport links and a lovely view of the sea and Santa Barbara castle. The dining options were varied and delicious, providing a great overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room I booked, expecting twin beds, ended up with a double bed, and the room only had one chair for two people. However, the room was spacious with a balcony and a beautiful sea view. Unfortunately, the noise from the neighboring room was quite disturbing in the early hours of the morning.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant and not so great experiences. The room I stayed in had a spectacular view of the ocean and a lovely powerful shower, but it was quite different from what I expected based on the pictures. The daily change of the comfy beds and good supply of hot water were excellent perks, although the shower water control could have been better.

Rooms

The room with a double bed and ocean view was a highlight, but didn't match the pictures. The beds were comfy, and the shower was powerful with good hot water supply.

Service

6.0

The service at the hotel was a bit hit and miss. While there was a chef available to cook omelette of choice which was a nice touch, the staff could be a little blunt, possibly due to a language barrier. They weren't always the friendliest or most helpful, especially at the bar.

Location

The location of the hotel was a mixed bag. It was excellent for those willing to walk a bit, close to a shopping center, the city center, and the beach. However, the reception staff seemed indifferent, which affected the overall experience.

The hotel rooms were spacious, not cramped, and bigger than expected, clean, but there was a mix-up at reception regarding room features. The service was excellent overall, especially from the helpful staff like Rubén and Elena, though one staff member seemed more focused on personal grooming. The location is fantastic, overlooking Santa Barbara Castle and within walking distance of the beach, even though cleanliness was an issue. Overall, the hotel offers a valuable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
