The Luna Park Hotel is a nice traditional Spanish hotel. The site consists of Luna Park 3* and Luna Club 4*. The Club shares all facilities with the Park except hotel rooms (Club have better rooms with air con).
The hotel guests are from Spain, Belgium, Germany France, Italy Russia etc. If you prefer to be only with British this hotel or resort is not for you. However we loved the mix of nationalities. The resort of Malgrat/Santa Susana is not aimed mainly at British more European (which usually means a good standard). Malgrat is not as posh as Santa Susana but still has its own charm. The resorts are actually joined and the hotel the street is on is exactly in the middle.
The beach is approx 5 minute walk and you get to via underpass, this is due to train line running through resort – the noise does not disturb you and gives you easy access to Barcelona which is well worth a day trip. You catch the train from either station (approx 15-20 min walk) for 7.90 euro return and takes approx 1hr 10min & follows the coast all the way to Barcelona. The worst noise in the resort (very loud) is at the weekend when all the young locals go to nearby nightclubs but the rest of the time there is no noise.
Back to the hotel as previously stated rooms at the Park are basic however very clean just a bit dated. The bathrooms are very small but as before very clean.
The hotel’s public areas i.e. bar/terrace, pool area and restaurants are all very nice and always being cleaned.
We stayed at the Park on All Inclusive which is well worth doing. The food is very nice but not really aimed at British; however you will always find something to eat. Breakfast- usual choice inc freshly cooked eggs/omelettes or pancakes along with cereals/fruit toast etc, they even had cava for breakfast. Lunch always a good choice meat/fish/pasta and usually chef cooking on the grill e.g. steak/fish. Dinner as at lunch always a good choice, they did a lot of Catalan food but always had pasta/pizza burger and chips. The Head Waiter was very nice and soon got to recognise you; for breakfast & lunch you could sit anywhere but he took you to a table for dinner. What we did find strange was everyone cleared their own tables as they went along although you didn’t have to do this. The barman in the restaurant was also very nice but as before you had usually had to queue for drinks. You could also have snacks between 12-6 in the Luna Club Snack Bar which usually consisted of pasta/salad/meat/bread chips etc. It was very nice in there and was very peaceful.
The indoor pool and jacuzzi are also based at the Luna Club and very nice.
There are a few comments re bar staff, must say we found them all fine and they never made us wait just because we were English or AI, everybody formed a queue. They stuck to the rules no drinks after 11.30 sharp. If you still want a drink after 11.30 just go down road 1.80 euro a pint or 3 euro for LITRE of beer.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Luna Park and could have easily stayed another week, our only negative is the queuing but you are on holiday so just go with it and it would not put us off visiting again.

Stayed here before - its a great hotel for the money.Paid £296 all inclusive per person.
Food is good - lots of variety - all well cooked..indoor pool and jacuzzi for the winter.
And the all inc alcohol is not gut rot.
Staff are friendly and the room is cleaned everyday.
Set back from the main road - so quiet but only 3 mins walk from the main drag.
Would recommend this hotel.
If you do get bored or want a late night drink go next door to the German bar next door Los Cerditos - good value - friendly cheap internet and open until at least 2.00am

returned on the 1st oct after an 11 night stay at the luna park.our group consisted of 2 adults,2 17 year olds and a 13 year old(only english under 18's in the whole hotel). check in was painless and we were in our room within 10 minutes of arrival, our rooms were basic but fine as we were always out. hot water, extra pillows and always clean, the maid was very good, ..perfect location, close to all amenities but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of nightlife when we didn't want it. until!!!! the raves started on friday and saturday night in the car park opposite the hotel and ended about 7 am, this appeared to be locals doing what locals do at the weekend,,lost some sleep those nights...staff,, what a shame, we've been to spain on many an occasion and it's a shame to say that some of the staff here let their fellow countrymen down, the worst being the bar staff... if you were not all inclusive and paying cash you were fine, if you tipped you were fine, if you were'nt english you were fine, i ended up complaining to the management after being ignored for 10 minutes because the people around me were tipping, the bar staff(except the middle aged guy with glasses)would thank every other nationality in their language but all the brits got was, you're welcome in spanish!! they were rude, ignorant, and selfish. after the complaint and the staff were talked to they couldn't do enough for us, however it went too far and they started giving the kids ice cream in tea cups instead of the small black tubs they would use normally...at times very childish.forget booking trips with the tour operator, we took the bull by the horns and made the trip to barcelona on the seafront train and saved a fortune, managed to see camp neu and the sagrada familia for about 50 euros cheaper than the tour operator, much more fun and the barelonians were very helpful when we got lost!! beautiful city!! the food was ok, you have to be a bit daring, not everything was labelled but we tried it anyway and were presently surprised most of the timeexcept for deserts, losts of hundrends and thousands to make things look a bit different, the boys had plenty to choose, the pasta dish was different every day,burgers and chips etc, lots of fish, salads,paella,breakfast was good too, with the chef cooking eggs how you wanted them.drinks were very good, local brands but as good as at home.the pool was good, but freezing, so we used the indoor pool and jacuzzi every day, had it to ourselves alot. evening entertainment?? very basic,,and as for daytime entertainment, there wasnt any, we were asked if we would like to go to pineda for a bike ride at 11am, looked at the time and it was 11am,, a little bit late!! saw 1 aerobics class by the pool and that was it....3 days before we left we were given a list of activities in spanish?? overall the resort suited us all, enough for all ages, the beach was ok,(within 10 mins)the hotel as a base was fine, the tour operator we went with have apparently pulled out of this hotel because of complaints, however all they needed to do was fire certain staff, re-employ explaining that the english are no different to any other nationality and it would have been perfect... 1 warning, if you have difficulty walking or with steps this may not be the hotel for you, there is no lift down to the restaraunt, the staff will carry you down( a little humiliating). we witnessed on our last day an elderly lady fall down the stairs to the restaraunt and ending up in hospital, there are no toilets either near the pool or bar unless you go down a flight of stairs, once again no lift..

I read a few review on here before going on holiday and was surpirsed as most were spot on.
Me and my partner both 26 years old (not the clubbing type) went to the Hotel Luna Park early September. I will try to cover all areas that you will be interested in:

Transfer - Only about 30/40 minutes. Girona Airport is very small and we were on the plan and on the bus in less than 15 minutes. On airrival to the airport you are asked to go to the bus stop round the back and all buses are clearly mark with their numbers and where they stop. Taxi's tend to be waiting outside the airport when they know that a flight is arriving and you with therefore have no problem getting a taxi.

Hotel - Arrival - On Arrival you will be given a yellow wrist band which is to be visible at all times when ordering drinks. You will also be given your orange restuarant card which must be presented to the waiter on entrance to the hotel restuarant and placed on your table and be visible at all time.

Rooms - This is pot luck. All of the rooms range from great to ok, so the good news is no rooms are damaged, mouldy or unlivable. We were in a room that overlooked the beautiful pool and had a lot of space. We did however meet two couples (1 with a child) that said they felt a little cramped. If you get a corner room might be best to move as they are also very cramped but that is very unlikely in such a big hotel.

The hotel consists of two parts - Hotel Luna Club and Hotel Luna Park. You can use all of the facilities in both however one is a 4* and the other 3* so if you are torn between the 2 go for the cheaper option as you will eat, swim and drink in exactly the same areas. I assume the rooms in the 4* are better.

Restuarant/Foods - This is what really lets the place down. Dont get me wrong the food is well cooked, always plenty off it, however it is the same thing every single day. They may chuck in a steak special now and then but food mainly consists of pasta, paella, potatoes Burger and hotdogs. The same goes for Breakfast but then again what would you want other than cereal, toast, bacons eggs etc. ALSO do not be fooled by the wording food all day. This is basically how it works:

8-10am - Full Breakfast buffet
1-2.30 pm Full Lunch Buffet
7-9 pm Full Dinner Buffer

Me and my partner were under the impression that we would be able to get food when we wanted etc, however discovered on the first day that after we missed lunch and asked for food we were send to the other hotel. Basically all the left over food from the previous meal (i.e Breakfast) is kept heated in metal containers for you to serve yourself. I wouldnt bother with this and suggest you stick to eating at the set times.

Drinks - Can't fault the drinks. You highstreet brands are not available but a local brand with do just fine and they stock the whole lot. The waiter will talk to you while he pours your drink and they are not shy on the measures. The all inclusive bar finishes at 11.30pm, but you can go at 11.29 and order a bottle of champayne or wine which will see you through the night.

Glasses cannot be taken by the pool so be sure to ask for plastic when ordering a drink.

Staff- Reliable and Friendly. Lets be honest they are cleaning up after us all day and to have a smile on theirs faces all the time is hard work. We had a leak in the shower above due to the couple getting the plug blocked but the staff run around the hotel to stop them using the water and fix our leak. They were very effiecient.

Pool - The pool is standard size, its a shame that is in not heated but this should not be the be all and end all of your holiday choice.

Entertainment - Average to good (but never bad)
The entertainment ranges from Bingo nights to kareoke, live parrots shows (great), live flamengo dancing (amazing). There is something for all the family but if not the main strip is a 5 minute walk and there is plenty to watch in all the other hotels that are on the beach front while your walking along. Most hotels will ask that you atleast buy 1 drink each of you choose to watch their entertainment.

Things to do:
we went for 10 days and did loads.
1. Marineland amazing for kids and family and lasts a whole day with free bus provided if tickets bought by your travel agent at the welcome meeting.
2. Portaventura - Europe Largest theme park (same as above)
3. Catamaran Boat Trip - This is not a booze cruise although drink is provided. This is a relaxing boat trip out to the middle of the office where you can swi, snorkle and have free drink and food all included in the price (more for adults)
4. Medieval Knights - (Thursday Only) just like pirates in Majorca but with Knights. Live jousting, sword fights and probably the greatest and fatest guitar player I have ever seen etc (MUST SEE)
5. Trip to Barcelona - Trip on coach and tour worth the money however we got the train from Santa Sussanna which is a 15 minut walk. The train costs 8Euros and arrives in the centre of Barcelona within the hour. Their tube system puts ours to shame and is cheap, clean and easy to use.

Location - Great.
Go down the road and turn left and there are loads of cheap market stall where you can haggle, go down the road and turn right and you will see all the local supermarket and shops which sell more expensive gear.

This is a great place to go to relax as a couple or the family, 10 days is about right as with 2 weeks you might get bored. If you are the sort of people that wont go out at all I would suggest a week.
