The hotel was very nice and clean, but we booked for the pool and it is not a hotel pool - it is an affiliated health club pool - and the staff were extremely rude to the kids. There is nowhere to sit. This is not a hotel to book hoping for a fun family time between tours.

Rooms are large and the layout is good for families. Nice to have a leisure club attached, (had the most amazing beach, neck and shoulders massage!). You’ll need a car to get into the city centre.

Not suited for people staying for work

Not great if you are staying here for work. Breakfast is only served from 7:30 and the hoards of tourists makenit difficult to get your breakfast quickly. The leisure facilities are very good though
