H10 Cambrils Playa

Rock hard beds, so will need a chiropractor upon return home. Food very very very bland and lacking quality and freshness. Same old, same old at breakfast and dinner. Alot of food waste due to the lack of taste or the fact that majority of food has no seasoning, is swimming with fat or is simply undercooked. I don't know how fried eggs can be served on a number of occasions undercooked and translucent in the white area - 😐 Not much going on outside the hotel and a bus is required to go anywhere. Animation fine but games repetitive. Shows aren't anything special.

My wife and l recently stayed in this hotel for seven days. Unfortunately when we arrived, our room wasn’t ready, however,we were quickly shown to a pool view room 202 and after many apologies and some freebies we quickly settled in. We found the hotel to have everything needed to enjoy your stay. The entertainment people were great…especially Oscar. The only negative was the food,bit bland and not hot, but this didn’t stop us having a great time here ! Highly recommended !

Before I talk about the hotel, I want to give a huge shout out to the server Teresa, who works at the bar and is not only a cheerful personality but is extremely helpful. H10 Cambrils Playa are lucky to have her. Location wise, this is a great place right in-between Cambrils and Salou, so you can reach either one by walking 45 minutes. But the best thing is the bus stop right outside the pool gate (going either way). And there is a shop next door where you can buy snacks, drinks and most importantly bus passes. The place is spotlessly clean, the pool and pool area is a big size and the staff are pleasant and very friendly. The rooms are smaller than expected, especially because ours had 3 beds. There were two of us and we had booked a room with pool facing balcony. There was no tea kettle in the room either, which I found very strange, especially in a four star hotel. You can ask them for it but it took a day to arrive and then there was no convenient place to plug it. We had booked bread and breakfast and the breakfast was great too, except for the juice machine, which is always mediocre and the coffee machine was Nescafe with really bad coffee. A pity since you can find great coffee in Spain. We did have dinner one evening at the hotel buffet and for 23 Euros there was very little variety. I would give that a miss next time. But overall, the hotel is highly recommended for ambience, cleanliness, staff, pool area, and breakfast. If you don't mind a smallish room, then I guess that's fine too. The video below is of the downstairs toilet, and they were always clean and smelled nice.

Lovely hotel , very pleasant and helpful staff Food was good . I'd like to give special thanks to Oscar who took the fitness and dance classes , really enjoyed those and to Nodo the barman and Robert the waiter , all very efficient and friendly . Cambrils was a bus ride away or a 30 minute walk . Would have liked a kettle in the room but apart from that everything was very good

The good points: the hotel is a one minute walk from a huge sandy beach which stretches all the way to Cambrils one way and Salou the other, it was very quiet in early-mid May and there was a decent enough cafe for drinks and lunch actually on the beach with an excellently maintained public toilet which meant you could easily spend all day on the beach if you could stand the heat (there’s no shade). The hotel staff are, in the main, very friendly and very knowledgeable, and the pool is large and spotlessly clean with a lot of sunbeds (though not enough to cope if the hotel was full). Breakfast, if you like pastries and fresh fruit, was decent enough, there was a variety of sausages and eggs and the nearest the Spanish get to bacon. The bathroom was excellent with a really good walk-in shower. It’s also only a 20 minute, €40 taxi from Reus airport. The bad points: Biggest disappointment was that the beds we had were old and rickety and not very comfortable. The room itself didn’t have a kettle or tea and coffee making facilities, and for dinner the food was much the same for most days, meat being cooked off the grill was of poor quality and genuine Spanish food was few and far between. For example, there was never a paella and they didn’t have a tapas night but most nights there was pizza, chips and roast chicken. Additionally the fact that it was a buffet meant that regularly the food wasn’t piping hot, you also had the problem of queues as everything was so close together. Desserts were mainly cakes or mousses which were nice enough but we were fed up with the hotel food by the end of the week. We didn’t bother with the evening entertainment but there was something on every night. All in all, the hotel is a bit out in the middle of nowhere and, although there are a really good bus services from immediately outside (buy the Spanish equivalent of an oyster card from the shop next to the bus stop and you’ll save a fortune) but if we went to the area again, we’d probably choose a different hotel.
