“Shame about the dinner.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2011

I have to disagree about the food at this hotel which boasts a Michelin recommendation - goodness knows how. We had an excellent deal with 2 nights b and b and one evening meal that I was particularly looking forward to and swayed my choice of hotel.
The restaurant has all the atmosphere of a cafeteria with harsh lighting and music not made for relaxed dining. The buffet style dinner was so disappointing. There was a good selection of salads but the fish dish was pretend crab claws - deep fried silicone dipped in very orange breadcrumbs. The vegetables were a dish of mushroom slices (the same at breakfast each day) Spaghetti carbonara was dried out and with no parmesan cheese. The turkey slices looked unappetising and the pork was a rectangle of breadcrumb dipped and deep fried meat which probably came from the same frozen food supplier as the "crab claws". Deserts were fruit and yoghurt rehashed from breakfast and some rather nasty shop cakes, the left overs still there for breakfast. Even the breakfast cereals were left out for the dinner and some diners were taking them for their desert. I have truly had a much better meal at a Wok restaurant for half the price - fresh vegetables, meat and fish at the Woks while the salads and deserts are the same.

I did register my disappointment with the hotel reception and know that another couple had already done the same that evening. Perhaps we were particularly unlucky as it was a Sunday night. Certainly there is something very wrong with the Michelin inspectors if this is the usual standard. Otherwise the hotel and the breakfast that is served is fine and I would go back again, this time with no high expectations of a special dinner.

“good value at discounted price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2011

perfectly good hotel at the £38 a night we paid. In the residential part of town a ten minute walk form the beach front. No tea making facilities in room. Quite tight for space in our room (219) but the balcony was three times the size of the room, bizarrely. More room and less balcony would have been better. Local cafes are cheaper for breakfast. We'd stay there again no problem. Four star is, we agree with other writers, pushing it.

Room Tip: the back is quieter.

“Great Food.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011

After reading some reviews we chose this Hotel as the food sounded good, and it certainly lived up to it, all meals are buffet style with so much choice, and well thought out to please all Europeans, Also it is self service so you can eat as little or as much as you please, the Chef will also cook fresh fish and meat of your choice, all staff are very pleasant and helpful.
In general the Hotel is very pleasant with good facilities,very clean and conveniently situated, no problems with parking outside, Can recommend the Hotel bike hire for local sight seeing, and a ride along the Mar Menor cycle track.

Room Tip: All rooms at the front do not have balconies, and overlook the main road but are quiet when the wind...

“No complaints”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

We have just returned from our holiday here and could not fault this hotel, it was clean and everyone was friendly.
The area in general is not your typical English holiday resort and is mainly a Spainish tourist resort. It was a bit of a struggle trying to read the menus at most of the restaurants and cafes but everyone was very friendly and always willing to help. On the plus side it was cheaper than the English speaking places.

We would definatley suggest taking a walk down to the beach and turning left to the National Park where you can see Flamingos and other wild birds. You will find lots of people having mud baths there. Unfortunatley we did not realise this was there and did not try the mud ourselves, there was also a market on the day we went
If you go inland from the hotel you will find a supermarket and there are more retail shops (some good shoe shops) and restaurants.

It was quite quiet here and I would not recommend this destonation for a younger more vibrant holiday goer.

“Great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

This is well located small and modest 4* hotel. For the price we paid the facilities were pretty good. The breakfast buffet provided a good selection and a nice touch was the delicious cafe con leche made individually on request and they also had our favourate brand of peach juice! The absolute best thing is the top floor terrace bar and adjacent pool which give stunning views over the town and out to the Med on one side and the Mar Menor on the other. The hotel is located mid way between the town centre and the beaches,each about a 10-15 minute walk. On the negative side the hotel does not provide the refined extra touches that experienced travellers will expect in a 4 star.The rooms and bathrooms are clean and tidy but quite basic,we did find the mattresses very hard. Also please note that very few rooms have a balcony and most overlook a busy main road. However we still felt it was a good budget option for a late season extra break!

Room Tip: If you want a balcony you will have to specify in advance
