Festa Brava Hotel: Reviews
Positive experience:
Acceptable rooms. Unfortunately, the air conditioning was broken, which made it somewhat uncomfortable. Nice service, acceptable breakfast.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Good hotel, nice service and not far from the beach. The cleaners came every day. The food is okay.
Positive experience:
So, the best thing is the location of the hotel and the hygiene in general. The food is, as expected, not great, but there are plenty of restaurants nearby where you can go eat. Also, the hotel is relatively centrally located and you can get almost anywhere in less than 10 minutes on foot. The rooms are what you can expect, relatively clean and serve their purpose as a sleeping place. The service is surprisingly good.

Positive experience:
The bad reviews are, in my opinion, completely unfounded. We were there a week ago for our graduation trip and everything was wonderful. One should not expect a luxurious hotel, but anyone who does so for their graduation trip maybe shouldn't go. The rooms were unremarkable but clean, and the bathroom was also perfectly fine. The hairdryer didn't work, but that wasn't a big deal, as it is warm in Lloret! Every room has a balcony and this is a great addition! The beds are not box spring beds, but they are sufficient for the week. The cleaning staff is friendly and no one steals anything. If someone complains about the cleanliness of the room, it is addressed immediately, and after that, there are no more problems. Now about the food: it is relatively monotonous with the All-Inclusive system, that must be admitted. I would also recommend avoiding the meat, and if you have it, not to eat too much. However, there are enough alternatives and some vegetables. I liked the food, even though it was not gourmet cuisine. As I said, one should not expect a luxury hotel on their All-Inclusive graduation trip. We were all outraged by the bad reviews after spending a week in the hotel because some are completely wrong and unrealistic. The hotel's location is excellent, you can get to the clubs and the beach in just a few minutes on foot. In summary, the hotel is perfect for a graduation trip if you do not expect a 5-star hotel. For the money, it is completely adequate, and we were very satisfied with what we received. I would always recommend it, and in my opinion, the bad reviews should be ignored because they are incorrect.

Fantastic experience:
All of you who speak badly, look at what you have in your community or country; you make me sad for what you have and you complain because they are not from Spain. Well, the owner, the responsible one, is Real Madrid, and we are Spaniards and born in Catalonia, and we take great pride in that. Empanaooo is a good hotel with good people. My name is Txema, have you got it? I say this because I have been there every year.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience: Everything is generally acceptable for that money and considering that the hotel has 3 stars

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My stay at Festa Brava Lloret was absolutely fantastic! From the moment I entered the lobby, I felt very welcomed. The staff was extremely friendly and professional, and they went out of their way to make my stay unforgettable.
The rooms at Festa Brava Lloret were spacious, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. I particularly enjoyed the stunning view from my room's balcony, which offered a beautiful view of the sea.
The dining options at the hotel were excellent. The different restaurants served a variety of delicious dishes, from local cuisine to international specialties. The breakfast buffet was particularly impressive, with a large selection of fresh and tasty options.
The hotel's amenities were also great. The pool area was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sun, and the wellness area offered a variety of relaxation options. Additionally, the hotel's animation team was very entertaining and created a pleasant atmosphere.
Overall, my stay at Festa Brava Lloret was simply wonderful. I can recommend this hotel without reservation and I am already looking forward to returning soon!

I started with Errezeta not knowing exactly what to expect, but I have to say that the hotel exceeded all my greatest expectations. Just steps away from the main street, clean, equipped with a pool, billiards, ping pong, rooms with a view and balcony, dining area, bar area, and an ALL INCLUSIVE formula that leaves no space for other competitors. Highly recommended. Welcoming staff and the owner (Uncle Francisco) even more, friendly and available for anything. I will return...

Hotel that, unlike past reviews, is for me an excellent hotel for the included services, cleanliness, and rooms. Staff truly welcoming and accommodating, excellent location, minor issue with the food but nothing irreparable. Recommended.
Translated from Italiano
Fantastic experience: I spent a lot of time in this hotel with Errezeta in summer, and there are only good things to say about it: The staff is like a family, all of them super kind, polite, and ready to arrange everything if something happens! The all-inclusive package: the fact that we could eat and drink whatever we wanted from 10 to 22 was almost unbelievable, is the best way to spend a great vacation (and spend less money!) The swimming pool area is huge, and you can relax sunbathing, playing cards, swimming, but most importantly, once a week there is one of the best services they can offer: THE BARBECUE! For a whole day they grill a lot of types of meat, and a super tasty paella, it’s the best way to take a break from the clubs and disco of the night! The owner, Francisco, is a great man, he cares about everything and he does everything where necessary. Every day your room will be clean, and every day you will think 'I love festa brava!' Truly recommended ✅
Positive experience:
Upon arrival, we were already welcomed by coughing, sick guests who had just left. Until that point, we didn't know that we would end up the same way. The food was simple, but it was okay (only sometimes cold). At breakfast, there was multivitamin juice that tasted like everything except that. At least there was alcohol to make the hotel more enjoyable, and for the all-inclusive, there was enough variety. The only downside was that the bar closed at 10 PM, and we had to buy expensive cocktails elsewhere. The room was clean, and the cleaning staff came every day to change the towels. Good, because sometimes the towels had strange stains that looked like mold. The elevator was not very trustworthy because the walls shook and it wasn't clean. The pool served its purpose. For a party hotel, it was quite okay. On the return trip, we were all accompanied from this hotel by fever, etc.

Positive experience:
Excellent location for the beach, local shops, station, and city center. All-inclusive service with a buffet open until 10 PM is ideal for a vacation.

Positive experience:
Catastrophe. I was woken up multiple times at night by certain security staff who broke into my room. Terrible noise, as chairs were thrown off the balcony by drunk individuals, who also tried to rummage through my suitcase. In the morning while swimming in the pool, I unfortunately stumbled upon chicken remains several times. (Also, the cleaning lady tends to make things disappear from rooms that aren't trash: for example: hair spray, charging cables, thermometers, etc. Pure speculation) I can only recommend the hotel if you're not afraid of having to live on the street and spontaneously changing your profession to medicine.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
For a party trip, a practical hotel with a good price-performance ratio. If you don't have high expectations, the mostly clean rooms with only the essentials are sufficient, after all, you're hardly in the room during the day. I can't judge what it's like in the rooms with high temperatures and the air conditioning that barely works. Wi-Fi cost us 4€ per stay. Unfortunately, there was little variety in the food and not everything was edible, so after a week, you’re glad to have different food again. The bar and pool were good.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Where should I begin.... It was a dream. I felt like I was at home. Just as we felt at home, the cleaner felt at home with us. Despite the smell of sweat and diarrhea, she always managed to sweeten our day with a smile on her lips.
Now let's talk about the room:
-dreamy view
-quiet surroundings
-full shower power
-functioning air conditioning
-diverse bed options
-6-ply toilet paper
-clean, soft towels
-a lot of privacy on the balcony
-well-secured, TÜV-approved railing
Now some information about the hotel:
-clean dishes
-gourmet cuisine
-good drink selection
-nice staff
-good free Wi-Fi
-functioning elevator
-All in all, sovereign service.
If you expect this from this hotel, you are at the wrong address.
Enjoy your vacation! ;-)

Positive experience:
First of all, it must be said that 3 stars in Spain definitely do not correspond to 3 stars in Germany. Therefore, one should not have too high expectations for 3-star hotels in Lloret de Mar. You can communicate well with the reception and the check-in was quite fast. You then get a wristband, which can be quite annoying at times since it is not removable. However, you can live with it. The rooms we received are quite small and limited to the essentials. We were four and had two double beds. But after all, you don’t want to just lounge around in the hotel, so that’s not a problem. One room in our travel group had mold, which is why they got another room. However, that room was simply rented out to the next guests, hoping that they wouldn’t complain about it. Our air conditioning also did not work, but the temperature was bearable. The toilets or the bathroom were clean and functional. The pool and the outdoor terrace are quite okay, the bar staff do their job well, as do the people in the cafeteria. The food is acceptable but not very special. If you want to eat something really good, you should look for a restaurant. However, if you just want to be satisfied, the cafeteria food, which is available almost around the clock during the day, is optimal. All in all, the hotel is very well located, the beach and party facilities are reachable within a few minutes, and it serves its purpose. Much better quality like this can hardly be found at 3 stars here. And one well-meant piece of advice: don’t mess with the night watchmen. According to stories, they have been more prone to confrontations and were drunk. So it’s best to not provoke them and do what they say.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: The hotel is okay. The service is okay too. Sometimes very small. Additionally, they charge for everything except air.
Positive experience:
I was there with my graduation class and I really liked the vacation there as well as the hotel!
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: The rooms weren't great. Sometimes it wasn't really clean just in general. But the service was good. Small buffet with only a little selection but that's okay for a 3 star hotel. Would've expected it to be far worse. The people who work here are very nice I liked the crew. At night there is security who is a little creepy sometimes but only wants everyone to be safe and have a good time. Just don't be too loud after night hours. Rooms weren't too great honestly. The location is great it's not far from the city you can easily walk everywhere. Overall good hotel but I would only recommend it for a club trip where you only want to party not for a family trip etc.
Positive experience:
Das Hotel ist grundsätzlich akzeptabel. Wir waren mit Aby Reisen hier und check in und so weiter geht recht schnell. Die Zimmer sind auch ganz Ok, bei uns war es sauber etc.. Allerdings gab es bei uns im 3er Zimmer leide nur 2 Steckdosen am Bett, was etwas nervig war. Zudem funktioniert der Fernseher nicht. Die Klimaanlage hatten wir persönlich nicht an aber es war immer angenehm kühl. Wlan kostet für den Aufenthalt 4€ und ist solide, wenn ihr aber einmal nicht mehr reinkommt sagen die bei der Rezeption aber "komm morgen wieder" bis ihr aufhört zu nerven, also probierts erst garnicht wenn es einmal weg ist. Der Außenbereich des Hotels ist gut, der Pool war gut und es gibt viele Sitzgelegenheiten. Die Toilette draußen ist zwar mies dreckig, aber sie erfüllt ihren Zweck. Die Barkeeper sind auch eigentlich ganz korrekt und die Getränkeauswahl ganz gut. Aber ihr dürft nur mit Maximal 2 Bechern gleichzeitig hingehen, sonst sind sie aus irgend einem Grund sauer
Für die Becher muss man btw. immer einen Euro Pfand bezahlen.
Das Personal an sich ist ok, wird aber sehr schnell Sauer. Vor allem wenn Nachts die Russischen Security Leute aufpassen würde ich ruhig sein, sie werden nämlich schnell Sauer und kommen auch einfach ins Zimmer rein und schreien irgendwas rum. Und sie werden auch schnell handgreiflich.
Der Standort vom Hotel ist btw. das Beste, man ist nur 5 min von den Clubs weg und es gibt viele Restaurants etc..
Vor allem die sind wichtig, da das Essen im Hotel einfach nur mies ranzig ist.
Pizza, Pommes und Nudeln sind ok, nach paar Tagen kann man die aber auch nicht mehr sehen. Das Fleisch vor allem liegt teilweise 2/3 Stunden rum und schmeckt auch nach nichts oder ist total zäh. Außerdem werden gefühlt unmengen an Öl darüber geschüttet. Die Soßen von diesem sind aber essbar. Zudem sind die Kartoffeln gefühlt Roh und werden einfach jeden Tag neu aufgewärmt. Obst etc. sind aber essbar. Das Beste am Buffet ist zudem das Eis und das Frühstück ( welches ihr wahrscheinlich meist eh verschlaft) ist gut. Die Klimaanlagen im Essensraum sind zudem entweder mies dreckig oder verschimmelt. Wenns euch wie mir geht habt ihr nach spätestens 4 Tagen keinen Bock mehr aufs Essen da und alleine beim Gedanke daran wurde mir in den letzten 2 Tagen übel. Ich frag mich wirklich, ob der Koch das Essen jemals selbst probiert hat. Selbst die Steaks von Aldi oder so sind tausendmal besser. Das einzig im Verhältnis "gute" Essen gab es beim BBQ, wobei auch hier nur ein kleiner Teil vom Fleisch gut war. Als letzten zu den Putzkräften die sogar ganz gut sind. Wenn sie aber wie gefühlt immer morgens um 8 reinkommen müsst ihr dran denken nach Handtüchern zu fragen wegen Wechsel. Sonst gehen sie nämlich teilweise einfach wieder weil ihr noch schlaft.
Alles in allem ist das Hotel aushaltbar, meistens säuft man dort eh nur. Nehmt euch aber am besten mehr Geld für Essen mit , gefühlt könnte nämlich sogar ich manche Sachen besser "Kochen" als die Köche. Die besten Sachen (Pizza, Eis etc) sind nämlich Tiefkühlware, also nicht Selbstgemacht.

Positive experience:
The screen (which, by the way, is a radio) doesn’t work and only emits choppy sounds. The room, however, was nice and simply decorated, and the cleaning staff were just as friendly as all the other service staff. However, it must be said that most of the food does not taste good. But this can be accepted because 1) the food is only meant to serve as a base for drinking and 2) the hotel is next to many good restaurants. The bar makes delicious drinks and the pool area is nice. Still, neither the pallets nor the chairs are comfortable and sooner or later lead to back pain. Although the hotel provides soap and shower gel, I recommend bringing your own from home, as it is only offered in small packages that simply contain too little.

Positive experience: Fine hotel, but a lot of improvements are needed. Food is mediocre, there is no heating and no warm water in the shower. Lighting in the room is bad. Location is good and swimming pool is nice.
Positive experience:
I stayed for 6 nights with Ruf Reisen in the hotel in August. For a party vacation with low expectations, it is suitable as a hotel. The food is terrible, the only thing you can eat is the pizza and parts of the meat. The bar staff is extremely rude, otherwise the waiters and receptionists are nice. The rooms are minimalist but sufficient, fresh towels are brought once a day and they are cleaned sporadically.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
My friend and I spent 7 days with RUF Jugendreisen at Festa Brava. For a party holiday, the hotel is very suitable. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The cleaning lady changed the towels and cleaned every day. The pool and everything else was also clean and was cleaned daily. The biggest downside is the food. The rolls at breakfast were so hard that you couldn't even cut them properly. For lunch and dinner, there was always almost the same. Potatoes, pasta, fries, pizza, and salad tasted good, but I would steer clear of the meat. My friend and I also got sick, actually almost all the young people there. But that’s not because of the hotel, but because of the heavily air-conditioned clubs in Lloret. By the way, the young people are not voluntarily lying sick in the lobby. This is because RUF has a day when some leave and many arrive at the same time. The departing guests (mostly all sick) have to leave their room by 10 in the morning, but the buses don’t leave until the afternoon. Somehow we have to sit with our luggage.

Positive experience:
Well, it's a drunk hotel. But eating the same thing every day is not nice. Besides, I don't know how they can ruin the food like that. Half of the chairs in the 'restaurant' have broken backs. Staff needs to be a bit tougher, which is OK, otherwise the staff won't check the situation. All in all, it's OK but you shouldn't expect anything.

The store is really great. After three days of fever and cough, and also a 12-hour bus ride, I wish you lots of fun and a nice vacation. The food tastes amazing.

The room was fine, the food barely acceptable. At any time of day or night, a certain smell of weed wafts into your nose.

Positive experience:
Partially friendly staff, food is a 2.5/10 (you can’t expect more at that price) and the night security doesn’t speak German, English, or even Spanish. A little tip for those traveling with one of the many organizations here - do not buy the Clubcard, it’s really not worth it! In the club, you save 2€ per night, and you can never participate in enough events to make that up. But hey, for that money, there’s at least free alcohol, which they can’t mess up.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Internet does not work, and yet you have to pay for it. The rooms are cold, there is no heating, and the ventilation does not work. The food is the same every day.
Positive experience: Rooms are okay, I didn’t use the pool because it was cold outside, the location is great but the heating in the hotel was non-existent, also you need to pay for wi-fi and it was pretty terrible.
Positive experience:
Room okay - but you don’t spend much time there anyway. Food good - I’ll just say burgers, burgers, burgers. Alcohol okay - only until 10 PM and just the basics (you have to mix it yourself, but you can ask too).

I didn't really have high expectations. I was in Lloret to party with my friends and the hotel was perfect for that. The rooms weren't particularly spectacular, but the beds were very comfortable, and the room and bathroom were very clean; the room was cleaned every day and there were new towels. The best part was the PERFECT location! 5 minutes from the beach and 10 minutes from the party strip! Just optimal for the perfect party holiday!!! Unfortunately, the hotel still loses 2 stars. The first for the food, I had already imagined it to be bad after some reviews, but it wasn’t as bad as it actually was! The second it loses for the really rude staff. Still, I would visit the hotel again, because for partygoers, the hotel is probably unbeatable in price and location!
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Three-star hotel, cleanliness and change of linens and towels every day, decent pool, five-star food, excellent location. Internet costs €3 for 7 days. Almost in the very center of Lloret de Mar and only 500m from the beach. Quite sought after and booked all year long: the only possibility through agencies in BG. Highly recommended
Positive experience:
Many seemed to have expected a luxury hotel here. That this is not the intention of "Festa Brava" should be obvious. For a party hotel, the accommodation is perfectly adequate, especially since you are out most of the time anyway. The rooms are simply furnished but leave no wish unfulfilled. The food is surprisingly tasty and offers a wide variety. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The cleaning service does an excellent job, there’s no trace of dirt or anything like that. Everything is nice and tidy and clean. A special highlight of the hotel is the many leisure options like the pool or the fitness area. We were very satisfied with the successful organization of "RUF" and would happily vacation here again anytime. The only areas for improvement are the air conditioning and the rather run-down toilet in the lobby. Otherwise, really nothing to complain about and everything to our utmost satisfaction!!

Positive experience:
As a small picky customer, the room was fabulous. In the small but nice room, one could relax from morning to night without stopping. The garden chairs are an excellent feature for the shower. However, it should be noted that the nightstand does not even have space for 20 vodka bottles. I would describe the cleaning staff more as an aggressive K9 unit that, although completing their tasks, seriously lacks politeness. Moreover, you are insulted in Spanish with a classic 'double time' without doing anything and risk having a heart attack. All in all, it's still a good hotel, but the staff, as mentioned, are not the cream of the crop.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
The hotel itself is good, the food is not bad, and one can complain little about the location. The staff is generally quite nice, however, the cleaning staff is VERY UNFRIENDLY. Furthermore, they only speak Spanish. So, if you are a German tourist in your hotel room at noon and suddenly a cleaning lady stands in front of you and starts talking to you in Spanish (in a very aggressive tone), you feel very confused and astonished... If you then try to speak to her in English or German, you will even be insulted, which is not really polite behavior. In conclusion, in my opinion, it is wrong to employ such people in the hospitality industry.

The rooms are good and the cleaners take care of everything. I can't really understand the criticism of the staff. We were there with a group of guys for six nights. The bar is fine except for the beer. However, there is one criticism: the food is really terrible. We were already at another hotel from the same chain last year, which was much better in terms of food. In the festa brava, there are sometimes indescribable substances that I would call inedible. Also, the food hardly changes. One can only say that in the morning, at noon, and in the evening, there are unsalted fries or pizza, depending on the day, that either goes straight to the trash or is enjoyable in the stomach.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
I imagined the hotel to be awful based on the reviews here... we had a room facing the street which has its pros and cons. The room wasn't completely clean, but it was okay. However, my duvet had a strange stain and the cleaners didn't notice it all week. The food was actually not good, even the drinking water there tasted chlorinated. The pool, lobby, and outdoor area were perfectly fine. Overall, the hotel was okay for a party holiday, you have a balcony that's not huge but acceptable. Our shower also wasn't really good, however, our friends had better luck and had what I consider an even renovated room with a nice bathroom and a large shower.

It was a really awesome vacation in 2018 at Festa Brava.
The hotel is almost directly on the party street of the city. However, it is far enough away that you could sleep peacefully at night and not hear anything.
The outdoor facilities were very clean and well maintained. The pool and the hot tub invited you to cool off every day.
A major highlight was the all-inclusive bar.

Fantastic experience: We had a top-notch vacation at Hotel Festa Brava! The price-quality ratio is excellent. Positive: - From 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM, unlimited drinks until you drop, including Bacardi and Malibu, etc. Of course, you can also just go for a Coke. - Breakfast until 12:00 PM, lunch until 3:00 PM, snacks until 6:00 PM (with a hamburger or a toastie) and dinner until 8:30 PM. The food isn't fantastic, but you don't pay for that either. It’s not so bad that you can’t eat it, but also not mega delicious. The buffet mainly consists of fries, pizza, hamburgers, chicken nuggets, salad, cheese croquettes, fish sticks, various types of vegetables, potatoes, and a different dessert every day. In short: everything you want to eat when you can decide what’s on the menu. - Clean towels and bedding every day. We brought our own bedding, which we felt was a nice idea; it’s still a youth hotel... - Since drinks are only served downstairs at the bar, everyone plays drinking games outside during the day and in the evening, very fun and easy to connect with others as well. - Almost every day someone from Totally/Gogo comes by to ask if everything is good. - If you want to go to bed at a reasonable hour, it's doable since everyone is drinking downstairs, there isn't much noise in the hotel itself. - The location is perfect, 2-3 minutes walk (7 minutes crawling) from the strip but just outside the hustle of the center. - As long as you behave, the staff behind the bar is friendly. - The rooms are fine. - Bus station around the corner. - The air conditioning worked reasonably well but not fantastically. Negative: - A lot of Germans in the hotel. - The reception and restaurant staff are not very friendly (except for a few cooks), fortunately you don’t need them that much. - The bathroom smelled a bit, but we could get used to that smell. - The beds weren’t fantastic. Tip: if you’ve had enough to drink, everything feels fantastic. - Wi-Fi has to be purchased, but it works mediocre. Just book this hotel! Don’t let yourself be scared off by old reviews from families because the hotel is now a youth hotel.

Great for a party vacation. The staff is not the friendliest. The rooms are small but fine. The food is good, but there is no midnight snack as advertised. The hot tub is not on. The location is central and all the clubs are easily reachable on foot.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: When we arrived, the door lock for the room was broken, when we arrived we noticed that one of the bed lights was broken as well as one of the AC plugs, the window of the bathroom was broken too. Our neighbors were drunk and just wandered into our room without asking. Luckily, after getting back to the reception, they were quick to talk to our neighbors and fixed the broken light, the service maintenance guy was very polite. The room isn't extremely clean but it's okay, the bathroom and beds are fine. There is a lot of loud music everywhere, especially around the pool, but it isn't the worst thing ever. Food is surprisingly decent all things considering, nothing to complain about really.
Positive experience: Advertised as a 'party hotel' even though it seemed like they were firmly against partying. Also the air conditioning did not work and there was no lock on the bathroom door. But the food they served was really nice and it's very close to the strip.

Well, I don't know what people expect here. I'll tell you in advance that this hotel cooperates with a party travel organizer. If you come here to relax, you're in the wrong place. For me, Festa Brava was very good, of course in terms of price/performance, you can eat every morning, lunch, and dinner, and you constantly get alcoholic and regular drinks. The staff is super nice, and if something breaks, they are not angry. You can hand in the bowl and then pick it up again, so you don't lose it in the club. The pool is great, the music is great, and the rooms are okay. For those who want to party, the best thing is that you only have to walk 200 meters to the clubs, and if you're hungry, there's a mega good kebab 10 meters away that's open 24 hours.

Positive experience: The rooms were not the best you can have and our wardrobe and showers were falling apart. But since you barely spend any time there every day (and night), this is not really a problem. (We also had a terrace which was nice)
Positive experience:
It is a quiet hotel, in a central but tranquil area, with the beach and leisure points 5 - 10 minutes walking, there are nearby parking lots available and the staff's treatment is very pleasant.

Positive experience:
Everything was good, but the food was super bad. It could only be washed down with the delicious Spanish beer.

Positive experience:
In summary: Satisfactory to good
Positives: Affordable price despite all-inclusive booking, large selection of different foods, chill terrace area.
Negatives: Room was very run down (at least the one I was assigned), e.g. stains on the wall, a bathroom door that wouldn't close, very unstable bed, small for 3 people.
Conclusion: For the expectations of a graduation trip (often referred to as a "drinking trip"), the hotel is definitely acceptable!

Positive experience:
With all the bad expectations, I have to write something nice. We were actually very satisfied, our room was very nice and cleaned daily (although a bit sloppily). A lot of effort was put into the food, it might not have been the tastiest, but there was a huge selection every day and you could definitely find something, the alcohol was also drinkable and the staff was mostly very friendly. I imagined it to be a thousand times worse, so I was very pleasantly surprised.

Positive experience:
Affordable hotel with moderate amenities. The food is okay and mostly regional. The staff is partially well-trained and friendly, but some are also very unfriendly. The statements from the employees sometimes contradict each other, which can lead to many misunderstandings.

Very good service with luxurious facilities and perfect rooms
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience: Hotel in the very center, rooms are cleaned every day, not the most comfortable beds, wi-fi is quite weak and costs 2 euros (for seven days), food is not bad, I do not recommend it for older people due to the noise, as excursions come to this hotel. Overall, I had a good time. ☺
Positive experience:
The service is very good, just like the place

Positive experience:
Perfect for a party vacation. For a 3-star hotel, you can't expect too much, but the hotel offers decent rooms, has friendly staff, and there is food available almost around the clock. Moreover, the all-inclusive drinks at the hotel bar are very good for Lloret.

Positive experience:
Food is good for 3 stars, room a bit small but clean, comfortable beds, good facilities.

Positive experience:
Great value for money!
The room with 3 beds, balcony, and toilet is completely sufficient, as most of the time you spend outside anyway.
The outdoor area with pool and plenty of seating is also very nicely designed and offers space for 50+ people; especially in the evening, when it’s time to start the party, it gets crowded and you can wonderfully get in the mood for the party night.
The food is not necessarily the best, yet there is a wide selection with something for everyone. Especially the (hangover) breakfast with fresh fried eggs and bacon is a daily highlight, but lunch, dinner, and snacks are really not bad either.
Definitely recommendable for the price, even though the alcohol is very diluted/feels that way and you only reach a certain level after many drinks, but you have all-inclusive ;)

Positive experience:
So the room is mainly fine for party travelers in relation to the price. However, the food is a sheer disgrace, even the simplest 'dishes' are nearly inedible. The only edible item was the fries. Everything else is satisfactory, though one could find another solution for the plastic cups. This hotel is ONLY for people who visit the place for parties and definitely NOT for families!
