Benicasim Hotels with Bars

We booked this hotel for 7 days partly to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We enjoyed an upgrade to suite which was great. we booked through ******* and advised that this was the last room for our week. Reception very good and we needed it as twice our room door lock failed but attended to promptly. Although advised that it appeared the hotel was full on our first night dinner there were about 10 persons. however, the following morning we found that the was a huge host of young Canadian footballers and their coaches, family etc staying which we did not expect staying in a 4-star hotel and their manners were not good. Moving on to the restaurant which on your web site ‘offering an à la carte service’ which it clearly does not and the food although previous guests have said was good for us it was bland and with no imagination, spaghetti/pizza/lasagna/ chicken dippers are not what we expect from this type of establishment, perhaps it was because of the footballers. More importantly when there was some sort of party one night we sat and watched superb tapas going past us to the party so if this type of food is available why not for everybody.? Please remember we were paying some €54 for dinner each night and never got our monies worth. Again, from the web site ‘you can find a café, giving you the perfect excuse to grab a moment for a coffee, a soft drink or a snack’ – this was a very poorly attended BAR not a café and from what appeared to be a small staffing situation, if you wanted a drink or coffee quite often no one about???? Ther pool – no shallow end!!!!!???? The depths are marked but need redoing show a minimum depth 1.8m, this is not good for poor swimmers. In fact, my wife was surprised when I told her this so decided to enter the small pool via the steps which she slipped on badly and has bad bruises for the trouble. This area should have a handrail as in all the other hotels we have visited. This was reported to reception, but they did not seem to want to know. If we had known that the hotel was going to full of teenagers, we would have gone elsewhere One final point, if you make pool rules then they should be adhered to but these were Continually broken. the facilities mentioned on ******* and *********** are incorrect.

The hotel has been newly renovated, the key is very good, the price is super high!

Booked hotel for FIB weekend..great location .. hotel states 4star..not quite a 3star at best..needs a referb and updating rooms clean and spacious however no tea/coffee making facility housekeeping staff friendly and accommodating... Great outdoor area with pool and entertainment during the day ..overall I would use this hotel again

Our room was great- comfortable, spacious with a great view down the beach. We received a warm welcome on reception from the woman who showed us exactly where the car park was on the opposite side of the street. If you are driving here for a stay then it is well worth paying for their covered car park as the bays outside the hotel fill by 08:00 and rarely did we see any spaces come up in our week here. We had dinner in the restaurant on our first night and again had wonderful service from Alex. The menu del dia was really good and reasonably priced. The terrace is literally next to the beach and is idyllic. There is an area set aside for hotel guests and you show your room key to prove residence. The menu here was varied and good and we ate there most nights again, reasonably priced and the kitchen is open all day until 11:00pm so you don’t have to wait for normal Spanish meal time! A huge bonus for us There are deck chairs in the room which you can take to the beach which is a really clever, thoughtful touch. Another nice touch is water available in the corridor by reception and usually left over pastries from breakfast. Can’t find much fault here but do have observations. The dining room seems way too small to cope with the number of guests wanting breakfast and not enough staff. They seemed to struggle to clear tables quickly and there were long periods where hot food wasn’t available so we couldn’t always get our first choice of breakfast selection. Being on holiday it wasn’t the end of the world but frustrating at times. We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay, loved it. I would recommend it.

The residence was in the festival, during booking (in the description) this area would be on a walk distance, but the number of kilometres appeared to be much more, a little sad that they had not mentioned this fairly. The hotel was very nice and very nice, and I couldn't have been asleep without the clothes. (Would you think it might be a idea to sweep/dimping under the furniture?) They seem to not understand the principle of airco, airco standing while all the doors were always open to windows. Also, during cleaning the room, air conditioning was always put out, and then we returned to a bloody room. The hotel was old but clean rooms, large balcony, the shower was fine, No refrigerator in the rooms, but a joint refrigerator in the lobby where, unfortunately, products were laid in. (Let room numbers vd guests put on and throw away at check-out would be a simple solution) Let's NOT do you wash, for a small simple wash at cold temperature they asked €55,-! We have been disappointed and certainly not gone positively.
