Altafulla hotel guide. SB Hotels hotel in Altafulla, Catalonia

"Surprisingly just a basic Check in not particularly Welcoming - Room was Clean & Attentive Housekeeping - Bedding Strange Top Sheet/Blanket/Top Sheet - No Duvet?? with Bolster Pillows - Excessive Lighting (10 Lights) in Room which were extremely Bright - No Slip Mat in Shower - Very Dangerous! We had a Room with Partial Sea View ‘Partial being the ultimate word’ you could just see on the horizon between the tree tops a bit of Blue. Wasteful Excessive Lighting across the Whole of the Ground Floor during Daytime Brightly Sunshine Hours? Food sadly was Disappointing - Poor Variety unless you like Pork/Beef every meal especially the Children’s - In 9 days Chicken only Once and sadly No Paella - The Soups were awful I’ve never had Clear Minestrone. Bread and Fruit were not Fresh - Lots of Big Dishes and Bread everywhere gave a false illusion. Dessert Area - well the same Gateau’s just called differently including a Red Apple Cake? Breakfast Streaky Bacon/Fried Eggs swimming in Oil - Scrambled Eggs were inedible - No Fruit Yogurts or Fruit Purée to add to plain yogurt - Pastries again were not Freshly Baked. Across nearly all Dishes were Tasteless what you experience with Packet or Frozen Food - A Hotel of the Rating I would expect a ‘Chef’ in Residence who ensures a High Standard of Tasteful Dishes. Unfortunately we will not return to this Hotel."

"Brilliant hotel! Clean rooms, helpful and polite staff, great view from hotel balcony room."

"We had a brilliant stay at Hotel Good River. Great value for a 4 night stay including breakfast which offered a great selection of options. Staff were helpful and well organised at getting lots of people seated quickly. Loved how near the park we were and enjoyed the pool too. "

"The room was excellent very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The bed was especially nice and made for a great night’s sleep. The hotel’s location is also a big plus, situated right next to Rambla Nova, which made it very convenient to explore the area. Really enjoyable stay. "

"No specific issues other than a great hotel "

"Staff friendly and helpful. Went out of season and hotel was grubby in communal areas. I could imagine pool area being too small when the is hotel busy. Overall, a good stay for price paid."

"Room clean as expected, kitchen had everything you need staffs very helpful. 2mins walk to the beach and 5mins to town. False advertisement for Air conditioning so the room was too hot so bye to good sleep. Left the windows open throughout our stay and my family especially the children wet bitten by mosquitoes everyday. Bin collection done after midnight of Friday, trucks were very loud and came back to back multiple times for more than 1 hour so nightmare for light sleeper especially if you have to get up early. The pool was very cold that children couldn’t swim but play around but for some strange reasons people lay down reading books/novels and my kids were shouted at by a grumpy woman just because they asked each other a question across the pool. It made the kids and myself feel so uncomfortable and we never got to go out again after that which was unfair for them. People don’t go to the pool side where kids are meant to have fun to read in the UK even if they did they will not be shouting at kids for expressing themselves so there was definitely more to it that meets the eye with the woman because when other kids came round and were loud and running around she didn’t tell them off. (Discrimination). The town itself is very quiet so will not recommend it to people who likes to be in a bubbly place. "

"Fantastic location, great facilities. Would stay again"

"A pleasant and friendly stay."
