A lovely warm welcome from the reception staff & always a cheery hello or good night . We paid extra for pool view & was happy with our 6th floor room . Rooms are open plan - very clean, spacious , beds are very comfortable , plenty of wardrobe space but no drawers , a good shower , miniature toiletries provided but I’d prefer bigger options within the shower cubicle, I took my own shampoo/conditioner, there’s separate WC with frosted glass door ( could be a issue if not with nearest & dearest) & then the sink unit which is behind glass partition which we found ok (some visitors don’t like this about the rooms) the A/C & safe included at no extra cost , room cleaned & towels changed daily. A/inc Food - we found plenty of choice at all meals , food nice & hot , great selection of salad , main dishes & desserts & fruit , I didn’t have much from cooking station- always a queue when I looked ( bad timing on my part) , you can easily do a nice 3 course meal . Personal preference- tables to be set with 2 sets of cutlery instead of just the one , you either save your knife & fork or get another set . Snack bar also had a nice enjoyable selection of food. Drinks - tried a couple of cocktails included in A/inc but not very nice , strike me down for saying this but spirits with mixers can be served too strong which makes the drink not very enjoyable, bar staff need to get measures better balanced. Gripe of mine - plastic glasses in the evening , totally cannot stand this , drinks don’t taste great . Glasses only indoors. We tried the wine /cava but not nice ( personal opinion) , bottled water readily available. Entertainment- some good ones but some not so but nice to have the option to watch . We didn’t stay at the hotel for the entertainment- we like to go out & about , came back to the hotel for a nightcap , feel a bit cooped up indoors where the entertainment was situated. It was nice to have the singers during the day. Staff - most gave you a friendly smile when serving you, some I felt were a bit robotic especially in the evening- just literally asked you what you wanted - no eye contact , just put drinks on the bar & moved onto next person , also they don’t really notice who’s next to be served ! I don’t want a circus act when getting a drink but as a guest I felt a bit uncomfortable at the bar. Pool/towels - pleasant pool , cool but refreshing!! Sun loungers packed in & guests queuing to get the beds nearly an hour before the pool doors were opened at 9am . Like other Benidorm hotels sun moves about during the day , loss of sun happens frequently. Check out - smooth & early breakfast arranged due to our pick up time also happily printed off our boarding passes when we asked . Generally a beautiful, welcoming, bright & clean hotel . A great location for both the old town & the new area of Benidorm, we said we would return & recommend this hotel - the odd bits mentioned are personal to me & my husband & can easily be changed eg just ask for a w
