“Beautiful but cold welcoming”

Beautiful building and place in front of the sea, nice confortable room. But breakfast a little disappointing with low quality products. And the worst in this hôtel is the réception desk, very Young and inexperienced people who don’t know how to be a minimum welcoming. You feel like you are just here to pay. Too bad for such a classy place !

“Would stay again”

Wonderful hotel. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and very helpful. The room was clean and very easy to maneuver for my wheelchair.

“Better than advertised”

So many of the reviews talk about 'faded grandeur', 'past its best' etc that we were pleasantly surprised to find that the reality is actually quite pleasant! We had a room with sea view and terrace - even in April it was great to be lounging outside with a cuppa, breathing in the ozone and gazin... more

So many of the reviews talk about 'faded grandeur', 'past its best' etc that we were pleasantly surprised to find that the reality is actually quite pleasant! We had a room with sea view and terrace - even in April it was great to be lounging outside with a cuppa, breathing in the ozone and gazing out over the huge (and empty) sandy beach and the waves pounding beyond! Our room was spacious and clean, well fitted with hooks (pretty rare these days) and generous space to hang clothes, with a modern bathroom and a strong shower - though, as many have said, the carpet needed replacing (old stains). Housekeeping staff weren't too good at routinely replacing the teabags and (powdered) milk, but reception staff obliged. The breakfast was one of the best I've encountered in a hotel - terrific variety and high quality. The evening meal we had there was also very good, though it is strange that the restaurant service is contracted out, with no connection to the hotel itself (so you can't put drinks on your hotel bill, for example). It also closes early, around 10 p.m. I think the frustration with the hotel is that it could be so much better than it is. In terms of facilities, its very name suggests that a huge pool and spa complex should be available, as in the hotel's heyday - but a small fitness room and sauna is as good as it gets. There are loads of ground floor spaces for exhibitions etc - but no comfortable lounge bars with late opening. And it is criminal that the beautifully grandiose front entrance is not in use, with only unglamorous access via car parks at either side of the main building. All in all, a pleasant experience but somewhat baffling - I'd love to see the place restored to its former glories....oh dear, here we go again!

“No good for the price”

Old . The bathroom is of poor quality, dirty, quite insane, silicone badly set, stained, covered . Badly finished. Breakfast regular. Far too expensive for the offer. No cabinet but hanging slots. I’m had a late check out and was aggressively addressed by the housekeeper. Came the receptionist... more

I’m had a late check out and was aggressively addressed by the housekeeper. Came the receptionist then after and had once again to deminstdate my late check out( 1h more…)

“Beautiful hotel but the room could be cleaner.”

Altough it’s a beautiful hotel at the beach and they have really friendly staff working at the reception, there are still some things that needs improvement.

Altough it’s a beautiful hotel at the beach and they have really friendly staff working at the reception, there are still some things that needs improvement. The room had a carpet that had more stains on it than I could count, the mirror in the bedroom wasn’t cleaned and the bathtub was filthy, the sides of the tub still had soap residue from a previous visitor. The bed was very clean and comfortable though, no complaints about that but for almost 200 euros for 1 night those complaints shouldn’t be there.
