    Just watching this and seen my self I was the person in the green polo in the restaurant I do remember seeing you about a few times what a lovely hotel and a great review I agree about the food labels would help and maybe they could make it clear it's not really a buffet as such more of a small set menu alot of people seemed to be complaining about the very little choice of food we hear buffet and think massive amounts of food maybe if they made it clear when booking people expectations wouldn't be set so high I thought the food they did have an offer was actually really nice breakfast was also good

    Finally a hotel could be tempted to stay in. Bed the size of what we have a home. Looks clean and organised. Would never usually think about staying in Benidorm preferring more smaller villages but this looks lovely.

    What a beautiful hotel! Just gorgeous in every respect. What a treat to hear the waves from your bedroom window - such a bonus. Personally, I really liked the look of the buffet - lots of brightly coloured healthy options for breakfast and dinner. Much prefer Spanish food as the main option.

    I do like the look of the hotel. I agree some of the foods need a label. Personally I do enjoy having food local to the country.
    The price is really good for half board, single occupancy. I could get a room for 91 stirling let alone food as well here in Ireland.

  • @Clinton-p7z
    @Clinton-p7z 7 місяців тому +1

    Paul that is one super, super hotel honestly. I would definitely stay there, and costly maybe, but that is the price you pay for excellance, first class. It has everything you need in terms of activities. I thought your room was 'magnifico'. I really can't fault it to be perfectly honest, and how could you. Its brand new and purpose built. I really could not find any fault at all. Its obviously been built with ultra-luxury in mind. And those views what more could you ask for.

    Great review! I actually booked this hotel before I saw your review of it but now I’m as excited as you seemed when you checked in. I’m staying in May so the prices were more. Hopefully the dinner has improved but not too concerned. Question, are in room safes usually charged for use in Benidorm? You keep saying it’s free. You’re the second person I’ve heard mention this. Coming from Australia I don’t understand why they would charge a fee.

    Stayed at Barcelo & it's very good but the lifts drove me mad & there wasn't sufficient security on roof terrace to ensure residents only as we had 16 50-60 yr olds thinking they were 20 up there taking up poolside beds being loud & crude, they left a right mess behind them & there was definitely only 2 of them that were staying at the hotel !!!
    You are also spot on with evening meals we ate there twice in the evening & then decided to eat out, breakfast was fine, the hotel is great, location is spot on, reception staff were lovely, room cleaned every day & they do a nice beach bag pack including bag, water, towels & beds & parasol for €20 which was great as it's €18 just for beds/parasol once on beach
    Very loud in higher floor rooms on Saturday night as they have a DJ on roof terrace.

    Certainly nothing wrong with that place they probably just need to do a bit of fine tuning after all it's not long been open. The price is certainly not out of the way for what your getting for your money you can pay more than that to stay at a travel Lodge and you wouldn't get 3 meals in the price great video looking forward to the next one.

      Hi Daniel depends on how you are arriving if by taxi the can get very close, if by airport public bus to Ave, Europa about 15 minutes walk, on the edge of the edge of the old cheers

    Looks a lovely hotel, the food and price is good, never fancied benidorm mainly due to the rowdy reputation it has (drunken brits) causing problems, and questionable entertainment (sticky vicky or daughter) would hate that, but out of season it has a lovely coastline and your room looked ideally situated, thanks for sharing Paul ❤
