Hotels on first line in Spain

From reception staff to bar staff to cleaning staff to entertainment and pool staff, all were exceptional. I will be visiting again.

Really enjoyed our hotel stay overall. the room was clean and fresh, and was a good size. Excellent location on the strip and near to the beach. The only complaint was regarding their cleaning policy

As the Event Host and Manager of my recent Linedance Event here again at The Marina Resort Benidorm, I want to personally commend the superb service received from the excellent Bar and Restaurant staff, Edu, Ouasima, Nabil, Raul, Abdul, Fakir and Vicente

Big thanks to the English lady Julie Luck in the office that does the bookings, huge help with arranging absolutely everything for our group. Can't wait to see the new refurbished bar and catch some rays in the sun

The food (Breakfast and in particular evening meal, which was part of our group event package) was superb. All 95 of my Hotel resident guests have told me how superb this was. A huge thank you to the Kitchen staff

Raul from Guest Relations was super helpful with a few of my guests who had questions etc. A HUGE HUGE THANK YOU goes to our two Barmen for the event, Raul and Nabil. Unbelievable customer care and service

The beach is huge and water is crystal clear, perfect for swimming. The hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff was nice and friendly, and our room was always clean

Excellent trip at the end of October! The hotel is literally on the beach. It has everything you need for a lovely stay

Shower is a plus point very good compared to others we have stayed in. Loving sea and beach views the beach is on your door step

A lost star for the room always feeling a little bit sandy, but I know this is hard with it being on the beach. We didn’t use the pool or sun beds as it wasn’t quite warm enough

Our stay was 5 days, but it was fantastic. The hotel was beautiful, spacious, the breakfast was great, and the service was fantastic. Everything was close by. The rooms were cleaned daily. We will definitely be back.

Holiday booked last year, and hour transfer from Barcelona airport, to be able to fly from Luton worth it. Room is clean and well maintained with daily maid service, coffee and tea replenishment daily

Part of a family vacation. The all-inclusive part (dinner) left more to wish for. Pool area got quite crowded, but still very nice with professional service personnel.

The hotel was an excellent choice! Food was lovely with lots of choices throughout the day all freshly cooked and prepared. The chefs and staff were amazing. Every request was acted upon instantly which was appreciated

There was activities during the day at kids club that they liked and also activities for the adults like water polo, darts, archery and table tennis. There is a mini park on site and crazy golf course

The food was good and the kids and the bonus of hot dogs/ burgers/ chips and rolls to name but a few during the day. Fully recommend this hotel for children the age of mine

I stayed at this resort on an all inclusive package with my wife and daughter during the October school half term

Yes, the hotel room was small but the bathroom was more than adequate

There is also a sandy beach a 10 minute walk away and plenty of shops within a 5 minute walk from the hotel! 5 stars for Riu Papayas!

Genuinely an amazing hotel, would return in a heartbeat. The staff are extremely attentive and polite. The cleaners work non stop round the clock and the place is spotless

We went on 3 trips with help from the Tui rep within the hotel and they were great! The riu parties are a lot of fun and easy to book and transfer is quick! Lastly, the entertainment has variety and there is always something to do during the day

The entertainment team are kind and funny, special mention to Jose who made the holiday

Lovely hotel. Good food and drink options. Lovely staff. Would stay again

There were enough beds for everyone, but the usual ‘get up at 5 to get the bed I want but not turn up until the afternoon’ people were very much present here. Staff were lovely and the hotel is very clean

There are lots of places to relax, plenty of sun loungers, and the sea and beaches are right outside. Shops and bars are nearby too. The view of the sunrises and sunsets are amazing too

Just back from a fantastic week with my husband and our friends,first time at this lovely hotel And won’t be our last we all loved it x staff are all so hardworking and friendly special shout out to Noella at the main bar she was always so lovely and always smiling x also the restaurant staff they were always so nice despite some rudeness we seen from other guests ( not good tbh),food was also really...

Reception staff are also grumpy, this service would not be tolerated in Ireland. Food menus need to be more tasty, a lot of evenings we just had salad as the hot food was not very nice

All inclusive for 10 days, the food was great and a huge variety, though after 7 days did become a little repetitive, but what place wouldn’t. The hotel was clean and the staff amazing

We stayed at the hotel to attend a truly memorable event. The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking and simply one of the highlights of the hotel

You could see the ocean from a variety of spots within the property and it took my breath away! The hotel is approximately a 25-minute walk to the Marina, which offers a variety of restaurants and shops

The Ritz-Carlton brand speaks for itself and the expectation is high when staying here, as to be expected. The hotel was wonderful, and the staff were exceptional and attentive, and the food was also truly at a 5* level

Excellent! Very good, excellent, very good, excellent, very good, excellent, very good, excellent, very good, excellent, very good, excellent, very good, excellent, very good, excellent.

The staff here is very well trained. The room we had is beautiful with views. The location is beautiful and right next to the beach. They even have a free shuttle from the hotel to plaça Catalunya

Facilities: Good Ambiance: Good Cleanliness: Good Service: Average The location is great, right by the sea

As a Gold member, she went above and beyond to upgrade me to a sea-view room and was very patient in explaining why the hotel's logo wasn't very prominent

On a positive note, the sea view in Barcelona is indeed beautiful, and the design aesthetic of the Ritz, along with the bedding and toiletries, are, as always, top-notch

I loved all the slow cooked meat dishes! The braised beef and pork in lovely gravy or sauces, the spare ribs, the steak and fish off the grill, all delicious! Freshly made pizza was my husband’s favourite

My only quibble with dinner was why put the soup station right in the middle of the queue for main courses? People either have to queue for soup then again for their main course as there are no trays, or ask if they can push in to get soup which wasn’t always welcomed I noticed

Beds firm but comfortable, two large singles pushed together to form a super king size. Good toiletries, you really don’t need to bring any. Location good but would be better if a bus stopped anywhere nearby

I didn’t have enough appetite to try any of the lovely smelling soups unfortunately. Air conditioning great, very easy to work. Wi-Fi excellent, no dropping or weak spots that we found and it’s free

We really enjoyed the food! I couldn’t fault it, breakfast or dinner. Way too much choice to go into on this review but I can’t imagine anyone being unable to find something they enjoy

They could do with an urn for dispensing boiling water as their machines are REALLY slow and most people made tea while we were there but the coffees the machine made were nice

Bring your own towels or walk into Guardamar & buy one for 6. Direct beach access & all rooms have side sea view. There is free parking outside but it’s always full. Indoor pool 3 euros for 2 hours

Nothing like the photos, nice pool area with seating, although on the beach no deck chair or sunbeds for hire

Public bus goes into Guardamar but the hotel is very isolated & I had to hire a car. I am doubtful to stay here again but if you want a holiday on the beach or with large swimming pool

We have stayed here before and it’s a lovely hotel near the beach staff are lovely room cleaning is very good.entertainment is good especially for children would come back here again

Which we walked a few times 20 minutes walk , beaches were fantastic so clean and had a few bars along it which self food and drink , the hotel was decent , only thing was breakfast time takes were not cleaned a lot of time and was food on floor at times which should have been cleaned up , ppl at front desk were helpful and nice , it was august time so a lot of Spanish come down to guerdemar for their...

No pool bar! 5min walk to main bar for drinks. No description of what is included and what are you paying extra. You need a car because location… Nice staff, friendly place & Luckily not many drunk Brits

There’s loads of sun loungers and a lovely heated pool - we had to pay a deposit of 40 euro for pool towels which I think is a bit much I’m sure guests staying in this hotel are not looking to steal the towels - haven’t experienced this in similar hotels elsewhere

This is our fifth year at this hotel, we did have reservations about coming back this year due to the menu at the Tosca restaurant as after three weeks with the same choice it became difficult to choose,and the food lacked flavour, not so this year the new menu is a revelation and not sure whether there are new chefs but the food is of a high standard, the staff at Tosca are amazing and treat us like...

abd corridors, one must appreciate that maintenance in hotels is a 24/7 ongoing job and we are seeing in some corridors the relaying of new carpes,our room is immaculate and spacious and has a balcony overlooking the hotel next door but it is Quiet and with sun until four thirty pm on the seventh floor so our room is always warm

Not sure about the live music though as after five years listening to over the rainbow and other outdated songs perhaps a couple of new songs wouldn't go amiss

We were half board - food was ok - breakfast was best but we never tried dinner. Overall the location is great - the staff are lovely and the pool areas are really nice!

As for the main shows isn't it time to keep the lid in Elvis s coffin and let him rest, same goes for Elton John to retire with dignity

App says gym is open 24/7 but not true. Front desk will tell you it opens at 0700 and both times I went, I had to get them to open (after 0700). Location is perfect and safe

The hotel is adjacent to a private yacht marina, and there is a gas station and a small Carrefour at the back entrance. A medium-sized supermarket, Mercadona, is about 400 meters away

Breakfast was wonderful although some waitstaff gets anxious and snappy at the busiest time around 9. Pool is small and gets over crowded, ppl literally start reserving chairs at 0730 which is ridiculous

I recommend driving to the location. I recommend parking on the roadside downstairs without yellow lines. I parked there for three nights without any problems

Room was very clean, view was amazing and we loved the amenities in the Level lounge. Thank you for a fabulous holiday 😍

The room is quite big, the breakfast in the hotel is also delicious, and the scenery is beautiful

The pool and sun-lounger area was absolutely fantastic with no problems at all — just be prepared for a very ice-cold pool! All in all, we absolutely loved our stay at the Best Sabinal and would definitely recommend it

Lunch and dinner had live stir fry cooking and that was a particular hit. Normally on all inclusive holidays I eat out every 2/3 nights as I get sick of the food. We didn't go out at all here, which tells its own story

Sea views are incredible and very peaceful. We had many a night sitting on the balcony with a bottle of all inclusive red wine. I almost dropped a star on account of a few rude staff members in the restaurant

The spa facilities themselves were fantastic, and the staff at the bars were very generous with the drinks (so much so that we even had to ask for *less* alcohol!). Our room was stunning, with a beautiful view

The food was good, although a little repetitive at times, so we did choose to eat out on a few occasions despite being all-inclusive. One of the chefs especially deserves excellent credit for his hard work

I don't give many hotels 5 stars so it goes to show how good this place is The food, as some mentioned was quite samey at times, but there were that many options overall, it didn't bother us

We had the most amazing stay here! The hotel is lovely and in a great location. The beach is just behind the hotel and airport is a 5 minute drive. All of the staff were friendly and helpful

I think the hotel itself is ready for a revamp as some areas/rooms are a little tired. It’s a great location for the beach and clubs in walking distance

Her professionalism and skill made the experience truly relaxing. Overall, while there were some areas for improvement, I appreciated the good food and excellent spa service, and access to a clean beach

There are some things still I would suggest the hotel can improve in this area such as correct food labelling in restaurants, correct labelling on menus on the apps, more choice for coeliacs - particularly desserts and also an offering in the new sorts area as currently only fruit as an option

Having met her on our last trip in June this year Naiara went over and above to work with me before our arrival to ensure my dietary requirements were met in the best possible way and to try and create a stress free holiday

The staff gave me room options based on a request ahead of my arrival which was very appreciated. As a coeliac traveller it can be tricky but the hotel try hard to ensure you are catered for the best they can

We have stayed once in the city view room and twice in the sea view rooms, they are most certainly worth it! The rooms are clean and comfortable we really can’t fault the sea view rooms, we could just sit on the terrace all day looking at the view! The breakfast is exceptional, so much choice and all good quality food, we particularly enjoyed the omelette station and the fresh orange juice

The pool area I would imagine is very busy in summer but you are right on the beach! All the staff are friendly and helpful, and the location is great within Calpe, plenty of excellent restaurants, bars and cafes nearby, a short walk to the old town up the hill and a gorgeous promenade to walk along, you can walk to and hike up the Peñon de Ifach, for amazing views of Calpe

The hotel's location is directly on the sea, the breakfast is varied and delicious, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable.

The facilities are great, with good hotel gym (it’s spacious and has a bench press, dumbbells, some strength machines, a cable and cardio machines as well) with a supermarket below the hotel, and the spa circuit was enjoyable

Very clean Room well prepared every day. Excellent food with a huge choice in restaurant. Unfortunately too expensive parking for the guests. Spa area unfortunately charged extra. In overall hotel highly recommended

Food and drinks for breakfast are very diverse and they offer a discount in their supermarket for the hotel guests. They also offer a lot of free organized activities during the day

Highlights: - Staff are brilliant, service is great and rooms are always made up well - Rooms are spacious and will be even better once modernised further - Pools and grounds are lovely and well-maintained, you could be anywhere - Food is good for AI, including the 4 a la cartes … just book restaurants early on day 1 - Entertainment was really good, with live music every night and pool games most days...

we were never managed to get a bed by the front in the whole week we stayed, seating by the pools felt a bit overcrowded and beds packed in - No adults only pool at the moment, this was a pull for us but it was closed due to refurb - Soft drinks were flat, would expect this to improve with new equipment after the refurb - Location is quiet (which we expected) … if you are wanting to go out locally...

Fantastic Stay – Already Planning to Return! We had an amazing few days at Bahia Principe Sunlight Costa Adeje

Price of hotel not worth what it offers. Pay more and visit Bahia fantasia. Or just get a cheaper hotel and it wont be far off this place. If it's booked don't worry you will still have a decent holiday

Think they have gave up and just waiting on it closing. Hotel offering free t shirts for 5 star reviews. Would prob be better to get honest reviews and look to improve on what people find inadequate

Stayed room 6006 then moved to 5206 because of dirty water. 5206 had a bad cockroach infestation. Was only in it for 3 nights but seen at least 10 per night. Could have prob pushed to move again

Breakfast complete but I missed some more fruit variety! Might return for the marvellous beach and sea!!!

The best swimming pool is unavailable and without water (imagine someone, in a restaurant, shows you a dish of lobster and tells you that you can't eat it because the local government doesn't allow it)

Very difficult to go to the beach, which as I said is dirty, in the town its different and clean. the hotel should have a space for the guests, you have sit on the sand and take your own chair

Grande Hotel in the middle of nothing. The beach is dirty and far from hotel, no attractions, the town is far. Near the hotel nothing to see

Make the big swimming pool available again and bring an all inclusive option, and I will change my vote to 5*****

MUY AGRADABLE EN TODOS LOS ASPECTOS, LIMPIO, CON MUCHAS ACTIVIDADES, BUENA COMIDA, BAÑOS LIMPIOS, HABITACIONES AMPLIAS, HA UN PASO DE LA PLAYA, BIEN ATENDIDO POR EL PERSONAL, CON POBLACIONES BONITAS CERCANAS.

Swimming pools lovely and easy to get to local beach etc. I'm definitely going back again

Amazing hotel super clean rooms, very helpful staff, great pools, lovely food and drink. Lots of kids activities included like high ropes and trampolines. Can't fault it

Priorities for us are entertaining a small child and feeding a coeliac (gluten free) adult and the hotel has been perfect. Everything is immaculate, it's incredible. The heated pools and outdoor softplay are excellent

Food was limited tbh even for adults, we didn’t find the food to be of a good standard. The entertainment was fantastic and there was a quieter pool than the main pool which was more suited for the baby

We had our first family vacation with a baby at Hotel Landmark Costa Los Gigantes. Overall, our experience was really good and the hotel offers many activities for families. Here you can find everything one might need

What we really liked is a baby club service where you can leave your baby for one hour a day included in the price if booked via hotel website. The babysitter was really nice and friendly and our baby actually enjoyed it

Pool towels are very large and thick. We had no noise on level 3 on the side. Very friendly atmosphere , the staff cannot do enough for you. All are very helpful and bar staff are great with their jokes

Booking system for sunbeds so no one can put towels to save. Food was allways fresh and a large selection. House wines really nice as were spirits, beers etc on all inclusive

I try to get everyone's names that I have met there, but have probably forgotten a few but please extend thanks to: Nicholas (Platinum Reception) who checked us in, and in no particular order - Guiseppe, Laura, John, Manuel, Jannes, David, Amaral, Ana, Oana, Julietta/Alicia (cleaning) and I have missed so many more out but absolutely everyone there works so hard no matter what area they are in

My daughter and I went for a four night break, the reception staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was spotless and cleaned every day, the food was lovely but could have been warmer, the entertainment was fabulous

The sun-beds had to be booked the day before this was a great system no anxiety trying to get a bed! We went half board we were told we could swap an evening meal for lunch, we tried to do this on our last day as we wanted to eat out, we were told we had to book it the day before, I appreciate rules etc, however the restaurant was never full to capacity the food was plentiful, we thought due to our...

This is my fourth visit to the Guayarmina in as many years. The past three years I have visited with my parents and we always have a good time

Nobody does English breakfast like the English but it was a decent effort with lots of other options available, continental, cereals, wonderful selection of fruits, freshly fried eggs, tea, coffee, juices, even a variety of milks etc

- When asked, a sun lounger was reserved for the disabled traveller (fairly) close to the pool. However, there was only one sun lounger granted, despite the traveller being wholly dependant on a carer

This is a great hotel in the centre of Salou, our room was very clean with nice bed and quality bedding. Everywhere is very clean and all the staff were friendly and helpful

Fantastic hotel! Staff all friendly and helpful. Such a relaxed atmosphere and everything in Salou is reasonably priced. I am fussy where I stay and I would come back to Salou and same hotel

- Disabled access: There was a pool chair to lower people in, but it was placed in the deep end, so our disabled traveller couldn’t step off safely into the pool and family were unable to stand close to support, as we couldn’t reach the bottom

Evening meals were also great, lots of choice with different dishes throughout the week. I don't think my waistline appreciated it but every night was a treat

About 15 mins walk to the lively side bars/ restaurants 5 min walk to the beach Costal walks good

We were considering a score of 4 but have downgrade to 3 upon final review. The hotel overall is a nice family hotel sited away from but not far from the beach. We experienced undisturbed sleep

Things I would improve is leaving non slippery mats next to the pools as many kids slipped over and bumped the heads (even whilst walking so it wasn't the case of children running)

The bathroom lacked space to store our toiletries (just a minor point really). We tried the indoor pool which was free and very nice indeed

Enjoyed every moment of our stay. Staff were cheerful and friendly. Rooms were clean and well equipped. Especially the breakfast was excellent with variety of cheese bread biscuits fruit and English breakfast

Staff at the bar area really nice and friendly, restaurant staff nice as well. Beds firm but comfy We were just bed and breakfast- breakfast good plenty selection hot or continental- plenty even for fussy eaters like me

We did not have breakfast there but the hotel’s breakfast looks good. Eggs and Sausage and bakery 🥯. Swimming Pool and table tennis, ask receptionist for the bats and ball

A hotel review for Hotel SB BCN Events: Hotel SB BCN Events: A Fantastically Fun and Surprisingly Serene Stay! Forget what you think you know about "business" hotels, because the Hotel SB BCN Events is a delightful surprise that's packed with fun, positive vibes, and a truly relaxing atmosphere! From the moment we walked in, the staff greeted us with genuine warmth and enthusiasm

The front desk ladies Rosa and Ariadna were wonderful they upgraded our room to a family apartment suite. This room was nice but the bathroom still smelt like sewage, and the floor panels moved

16 mins uber ride from El Prat airport Barcelona to Castadefel, the hotel is easy to find, close to a mall and Burger King which is open till 1AM so it’s always great to know, there is additionally KFC next to it as well as Lidl, Carrefour and Aldi

Ticked off Becos I had to wait a while to be seen as there was only one receptionist at the time but she made up for it with her salutation and warm reception

We then requested a different room, we were shown three rooms all of them that their own issues moving floors, broken toilets, and the smell of sewage
