Description

Hotel Elitsa is a three-star property located within the Albena resort complex, offering 176 rooms in a single 10-story building. It sits just 10 meters from a public sandy beach, providing direct beach access with free sun umbrellas and loungers allocated per room. The hotel features free Wi-Fi in the lobby and restaurant areas, an outdoor pool with complimentary sunbeds and umbrellas, and two bars including a lobby bar and a poolside bar. Families will appreciate various kids' facilities such as a children's playground, a dedicated section in the adult pool, and child-specific amenities like cots and high chairs. The hotel offers a restaurant serving continental buffet breakfast and includes services like currency exchange, laundry, and car rentals. Rooms have air conditioning and some offer balconies with views of the sea or park. While the hotel is appreciated for its beach location and animation program, many guests note that the rooms and furniture are dated and would benefit from renovation.

The location is perfect — if you want the beach, you have the beach; if you want the pool, you have the pool.

The food was tasty and had enough variety to suit my taste.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had to ask them for assistance several times — from helping with our room to even providing us with medicine — and they always did their best. However, sometimes they seemed a bit uninformed. For example, we found out only later that we could book the tennis court through them.

The entertainers and poolside games were amazing. We really enjoyed their company and even became friends with some of them, though it seemed like they might not be treated as well as they deserve.

The rooms were decently clean, so I cannot complain about the housekeeping. What could be improved, however, is the furniture and overall condition of the rooms. They are quite old and in need of renovation. During our stay, our door needed fixing, one chair was broken, and the armchair bed was not very comfortable. Still, the reception staff was always willing to help, which made these issues easier to overlook.

In my opinion, when going to the sea, you don’t need extreme luxury — and this hotel offers exactly what you need for a pleasant stay. I would happily return, especially if the rooms get a bit of an upgrade.

It's really fun especially the pool where you can relax. I like the animator and the programs they have.the rooms are also clean.Love the sea🌊❤️

This is one of the worst hotels I have ever been! The 3 stars is not a reason for the unsanitary and dirtiness of this hotel! Cleanliness is not a luxury, but a necessity! Hair in bed, dirty floor, moldy bathroom… Actually the bathroom is a place I am afraid of… because you can come out dirtier than before (it’s really dirty and old).
If you are young just avoid this hotel, it’s really boring and 90% of people here are 50+…
Food is disappointing and disgusting, the quality is bad and it’s the same food every day (we had at breakfast the fish leftover from yesterday’s dinner)😃.
The parking place is also a problem, you have to park your car right next to the road, basically you pay 10€ per day for your car sitting in a “public”, unsafe place!
The only good thing about this hotel is the location (it’s right next to the beach, first line). Also the staff is friendly (some of them)!

The location, the beer and some of the staff are the only positive things I can say about this hotel. The room is horrendous, hairs on the bed and in the bathroom, the shower is moldy and the floor hasn’t been wiped. Only half of the towels have been changed. Many things broken and worn out. The food variety and quality is very poor. I’ve been here 10 years ago but now the hotel is much, much, worse, would definitely NOT recommend it or come back!!! The price/quality ratio is unfair and incorrect. It’s not even close to what it used to be, I am highly disappointed and even disgusted in some way.

The animation is really amazing, like outstanding and kudos to the only animator there, that young and cheerful girl named Tillya, really a humble and a hardworking one! I'm impressed beyond explanation! I really like the work, and even the humble behavior of Tillya, the way she treats the kids there is also appreciable. Please give her a raise is say!

Everything was good and service was great. We had a nice stay in a big room. The beach is perfect and the restaurants amazing. I absolutely adored the style. Perfect pool activities and shows made by animation team with smile. Wish to go again soon.

The hotel is a bit old. It wasn't not cleaned well and the rooms weren't renovated. The restaurant was very stuffy and not pleasant to eat. The food was not very nice and the same. The receptionists were very polite. The animation was unique. Many thanks to the animators and for their hard work to make us happy. Every day we had different games and fun experiences. Many thanks to the animator Tillya for her help and she always entertained us during our stay. My little sister really liked the animation!

We was here for 1 week, but nobody was there to clean the room, the air conditioner didn’t work.. we was sayin on the reception but after 1 day still didn’t work. The food was a bit fine but it was cold. But the beach was ok. :)
