“We will not be returning......!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 July 2011

Where to begin? From the outside the hotel looks very basic, but then so do a lot of hotels in the resort.Check in was a nightmare,only 1 member of staff on who spoke English but was rushed off her feet.We gave up & went into the resort for something to eat, came back 3 hours later & checked in straight away.After showering we went to the hotel next door where everyone eats in the buffet restaurant.The food was horrendous, there was no cutlery,we ate with only forks, & it was a real fight to get a table.The red & white wine was undrinkable & the only other drinks available were water or fruit juice!! After dinner we went back to the lobby bar in our hotel for a drink, which we sat outside with...until the bar ran out of Pepsi for our rum & offered us Vimto!!!! Time for bed!!!Breakfast wasn't much better food wise but at least it was warm (ish).We decided to go to the beach & had a lovely day, despite not being able to find the snack bar linked to the hotel (so we paid for our own lunch despite being all inclusive).On returning to the hotel, after showering, it was back to the 'bum fight' at the hotel next door for dinner....same food,same temperature, so we stuck to the salads which were okay!!Still a shortage of cutlery though.As we were leaving the following day we had an early night, but not before the Pepsi machine broke!!After breakfast we went to check out...my cousin was paying as a treat for my hub & I, because he had been staying at our house for a week.Reception announced that the credit card machine was broken...so off my cousin went to get the cash from an ATM 2 hotels away. That machine had no money,but the currency exchange said they would give him cash but he needed his passport...which was still behind reception in our hotel.So he arrives back to where his mum & I had been waiting, told us the story then went to reception to ask for his passport, explaining the situation.Then the manager appeared & they said they would get the machine from the hotel next door. By this time I was feeling rather angry & flustered...why couldn't they have done that in the first place. Whilst we were waiting someone else came to complain about something in their room!! Bill paid we left, but then I discovered that, although it says in the booking confirmation that parking is 'free'...it's not...it's cheaper than the daily rate..but not free!!!! Anyway, all in all, we had a good time but the company was what made it...we would NOT return to this hotel, not even if someone paid for a free visit!!!!Oh, and the wi-fi internet is only available a few metres from the computers in reception!

Room Tip: Don't have a ground floor room with terrace as they are mostly thoroughfares & noisy!!

“Good value hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I stayed here with a friend last year, and although we notmally choose a beach front hotel, we chose this one purely on price. It wasn't as good a where we normally stay, but then it was considerably cheaper. The rooms are basic but clean and comfortable, the location was nice and quiet, in a garden/park tye envioronment but only 10 miutes walk to the superb beach, or 2 minutes on the noddy train - cost about £1. The food was OK, varied self service buffet style hot food, and plenty of fruit and salads, but maybe it would be quite monotonous for more than one week, as it is repetative, Between meals all inclusive fare is fairly basic, but you can also eat and drink and get ice creams at their kiosk on the beach if you go there for the day, which is handy. The hotel pool area is quite small but adequate, and it was quiet when we were there, but we chose the end of the season because we like it quiet. Most of the staff were helpful and polite, but I think one or two need retraining in customer relations or have a grudge against us "rich tourists"! One of the bar staff in particular if you're reading this, remember:- smiles and courtesy + happy clients and tips! Overall a good holiday for what we paid, we were happy, and would go back.

“Not as bad as we thought it would be”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2009

We had read some reviews on the hotel panorama and wondered what on earth we had let ourselves in for. When we arrived, the hotel appeared clean and tidy but very basic, definately not 3 star material.
The rooms were clean and cleaned every day with fresh linen and towels.
The worst thing about this hotel was the food it was horrendous, I dont know how anyone could eat there, we felt the hotel would probably do better as self catering if they set it up properly.
We ate out every day for late breakfast/lunch and for our evening meal and it was so cheap and the food was decent also.
Would not go back to this hotel again, but it definately not as bad as we thought it was going to be.
