Firstly, I would like to defend the hotel against some recent negative reviews. One review complained about, and added some photos, queues outside the dining room at meal times. with hundreds of guests requiring a meal on an evening, of course there will be queues at certain times, it's not rocket science! The hotel can't help it if dozens of guests turn up at the restaurant at the same time! Come on, get real! Another review complained about having arrived early and the room not being ready! All hotels, whether at home or abroad, state a time when rooms will be available, as they need time to prepare the room following the departure of the previous guests. Again, not rocket science, and certainly shouldn't be classed as a negative. Also, the pork is NOT inedible, as my wife and I had pork on several occasions, and it was lovely. In fact our entire stay from start to finish was fantastic. The hotel staff work incredibly hard at all times to keep the hotel clean, fresh and running smoothly. Our room was cleaned to a very high standard every day, with towels being changed whenever we requested them. Yes, inconsiderate guests put towels on sunbeds and then disappear for hours, but this happens in most hotels, it's not the hotel's fault. That said, on the few occasions that we sunbathed (we went out walking on most days) we never had a problem getting a sunbed, even at 10 or 11am. The local bus stops in both directions are right outside the hotel, and the busses are regular and reliable. But if you are able, the walk along the prom to either Salou or Cambrils are well worth the effort. We had a very good mini fridge in our room and a free safe, which are always useful. All in all, we had a great 3 week holiday, and will definitely return. Thanks to all the staff, you are a credit to this wonderful hotel

“Great Hotel in quieter area”

We’ve had an amazing time at this hotel. Family of 3 (with 5yo) travelling throughout May Half Term.

We’ve had an amazing time at this hotel. Family of 3 (with 5yo) travelling throughout May Half Term. This hotel was lovely, first impressions of the hotel lobby are great and it only got better from there. Any time we spoke to reception staff they were very helpful. The hotel room was great, two singles pushed together with separate sheets (my husband loved this) and a single bed for our daughter. The only thing the room was missing was an extra foot of space between the bed and table/desk but nothing you can change about that! We had a room at the back overlooking the park, tennis courts and football pitch. It was nice and quiet. The food at breakfast and dinner was good variety. There wasn’t a specific kids buffet however our daughter was only interested in the pasta anyway! I would say this is definitely the hotel for you if you appreciate seafood options at dinner. Every evening the meat and fish options were varied. The pool area was great, people reserving sunbeds did happen but not with the level of madness you sometimes see reported. We had a great time at the pool - the depth varies from 80cm to 1.8m and was great for all ages. There’s a bar in which all the staff are lovely. The biggest shoutout I have to give to the animation team - Ali for kids club, my daughter started asking to go to the morning session with the little friends she’d made. Also Oscar and Judit. Oscar was great at getting people involved without pushing if you didn’t want to. I was impressed every morning watching him do water aerobics but he was on a platform in the shining sun - He must’ve been sweating! There’s not a lot of dining options nearby but we did wander to the Rugby Tavern and Molly Malones both about 15 minute walk away and caught the bus to Salou for a beach day. We would definitely come again to this hotel as it was lovely even with it being a busier week.

“Good, but not quite what was hoping for”

Hotel is very clean, rooms are more than adequate for families, had an interconnecting room which was great. Beach a stones through away with miles of sand along with a great path to walk and cycle for miles. A pleasant 3 mile stroll takes you into the centre of salou. Pool was fairly quiet and clean, sun bed towels are out very early so can become an issue if not quick off the mark. Although on days a note would be left on beds that towels would be removed if not returned within an hour, not sure this was followed through. People would disappear for hours with towels left ready for their return. Food, personally wasn’t great. Little variation, good if you enjoy a slice or 2 of pizza, pasta and chips but in typical English style, a long queue would form so you would be in for a wait if you didn’t want anything until you reach the far end. Standard people would push in but overall manageable. Staff very pleasant. Lacking in much activity but good for those wanting a relaxed holiday in the sun in and around the hotel grounds. Buses right outside the hotel so transfers and anyone wanting to head out, straightforward and a good spot with regular buses passing through.
