Hotel Naoura Barriere is located just on the outer limits of the old city. It is placed on a side street just off from the main road leading into the town centre and is a 10-15 minute walk to the central attractions. The hotel is set around beautifully manicured gardens and of course their wonderful pool area. The rooms are simply designed but contain all the required amenities with an over-sized very comfortable king bed. The television system was a little over-complicated and could certainly have fulfilled all requirements with much less fuss. The bathrooms are large and well designed if perhaps a little dimly lit in places.
Hotel breakfast is served in an external seating area overlooking the pool. Breakfast was more than perfect with a small cold buffet selection as well as a small selection of hot dishes including made to order eggs. As mentioned in previous reviews the hotel does seem very relaxed about allowing birds and other animals to lands on the food which may upset some.
The pool area is clean and provides more than enough sunbeds. However it should be noted that a lot of the sun covers on these seats were broken or in a shabby condition and so when it got very hot there was no respite from the sun.
All of the staff at this hotel were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to do what they could to provide you the best possible experience.
Overall this hotel really offers the best of all worlds. If you are looking for a base to explore the city from then this hotel is close enough to the city centre to allow this. If you are looking for a hotel with a luxurious pool, charming staff and great comfort then this hotel also fulfills all your criteria.
