โรงแรมใกล้กับ Soler Blasco Archaeological and Ethnographic Museum, Xabia

Es un complejo tranquilo por la zona en la que está ubicado. Las piscinas están bien. El apartamento en el que estuvimos, está bien pero se nota que el mobiliario y el gres son de finales de los 90 o primeros de los 2000. Tienen ya su batalla y deberían plante**** seriamente una reforma. El acceso al párking subterráneo desde la calle, algo mal indicado y poco idóneo para el tamaño de los coches actuales. Dentro del párking, no parece ser un párking. Más bien da la sensación de que las plazas son trasteros reacondicionados a plazas de párking. Tampoco es demasiado ancho, lo que en algunas ocasiones dificulta las maniobras con el coche en su interior. El desayuno es buffet libre, pero bastante pobre puesto que la bollería, los fiambres y demás son de poca calidad. Los dueños de todo esto parece que son un matrimonio de británicos que ninguno de ellos habla ni papa de español, pues la mujer es la que se encarga del servicio de desayuno. El resto del personal, recepción, limpiadoras y servicio son españoles. La limpieza es correcta y en las habitaciones no hemos visto nada negativo que nos llamara la atención. Es una opción asequible por la zona.

Our apartment was clean and spacious. It was serviced regularly throughout the six weeks we were there. The grounds were well maintained. We really enjoyed the use of the indoor swimming pool throughout the stay. All the staff at the hotel were helpful and friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed the food, however on occasions it was not easy for my wife, who is a vegetarian to distinguish between vegetarian and non-vegetarian options on the buffet. We have already booked for next year.

โรงแรมดีมากห้องพักใหญ่และใหม่สะอาด อาหารเช้าที่ดีมากและอาหารอร่อยในร้านอาหาร พนักงานเป็นมิตรและช่วยเหลือดี เราไม่ค่อยมีความสุขที่สนามกอล์ฟ เรามีเวลาตี 4 และหวังว่าจะหมุนสนาม 3 – 9 หลุม นั่นไม่ใช่กรณีเมื่อฉันพยายามพูดคุยกับอาจารย์แคดดี้เขาหยาบคายแม้ว่าฉันจะบอกว่าฉันจองเวลาที 9:06 เมื่อเขาบอกว่าคุณเริ่ม 9:26 อาจารย์แคดดี้ยังพยายามให้เราเล่นหลักสูตรเดียวกันสีแดงและสีเขียว 3 ครั้งติดต่อกัน หนึ่งในหลักสูตรสีเขียวไม่ดี (ทั้งหมดเป็นสีเหลือง สีแดง และสีเขียว) สีเขียวควรปิดตามภาพ โดยทั่วไปสีเขียวไม่ดี ทรายมากเกินไปในทั้งหมด ฉันเพิ่งมาจากอีก 3 คอร์สในทริปสเปน ทั้งหมดดีกว่ามาก ระดับที่แตกต่างกันในสภาพดี หลักสูตรถูกจองเกินและเวลาทีเริ่มและเมื่อเราเริ่มหลุมที่สอง 9 หลุมมีความสับสน พนักงานที่ร้านอาหารคลับเฮ้าส์ให้บริการที่ไม่สุภาพทุกอย่างเป็นความโปรดปรานมากกว่าวิธีการที่ใส่ใจในการบริการ

The Cookbook has 2 good quality restaurants and calls itself a boutique hotel. Unfortunately the hotel is not boutique as this brings to mind luxury and quality when in reality the rooms are looking tired and in need of attention. On checking in, first impressions were very good, staff are very pleasant and attentive, the reception area is modern and attractive. We were offered a drink while we were checked in, which was very welcome. Unfortunately once we got to our room, we discovered that the air conditioning was not working at all, it was running but just moving around ambient air. We called reception and they advised that they would call in the engineer whilst we were out for dinner. On our return, we were advised that they discovered that the unit had broken and we would be moved to another room. The replacement room air conditioning was working as it was a brand new unit, but instead of replacing the old unit with this new one, the old unit was left in place on another wall and the new one added as well. So the room contained two air conditioners which looked a bit odd. The hotel corridors were roasting hot, it appears that either the air conditioning is not working in these either or they had been turned off to save money. Our replacement room was looking very tired in places with doors needing sanding and revarnishing and drawers that were falling out if you pulled them out too far. Using the bathroom, we discovered a couple of issues. Firstly the sink tap was falling apart. Secondly and to be honest, totally disgusting was the wet black mould that I only discovered after I ran a bath and had a close up view of the bath tap. We reported both issues to reception and asked that they be resolved. Staff assured us that they would be immediately dealt with and on our return from dinner that evening, we were told that the sink tap had been fixed by the engineer, the mould would be dealt with by room service the following day. We were reassured that staff were on top of the issues and found the sink tap now fully working in the room. We felt confident the mould issue would be resolved the following day but to our disappointment, discovered the tap in exactly the same disgusting state. As were were spending our last night in the hotel and we had already bought it to the hotels attention, we decided to not bother to report a second time, but just list the issue here for other travellers to decide if they want to stay at this hotel or not! Breakfast at the hotel was fine although there was a bit of a lack of choice which other reviewers have complained about. It seems that there was a chef shortage as the receptionist was also doubling as the cook during our stay at the hotel. He advised us that the only thing he could cook was a plain omelette or scrambled eggs. Luckily we were fine with that choice and he cooked them well. I got the impression that most of the money spent on the Cookbook has gone into both restaurants (which are lovely) and

The Hotel Porto Calpe is, without the slightest hesitation, easily the best accommodation we have had in Spain. This three-star hotel provides comfort, cleanliness and attention to detail was beyond the scope of those three stars. We paid a little extra for a front sea view which was worth every penny as the bustling port has character and charm and looking out and up to the Peñón de Ifach was amazing. I have included some photographs taken from our balcony. You may need to click on these for best effect as they are panoramas. The hotel is compact and bright. The room was immaculate. The bed was huge and extremely comfortable. Our linen was changed and the accommodation was thoroughly cleaned on a daily basis. All of the staff were friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make sure our stay was perfect. We Brits panic a little when there is no kettle in the room, however, one was provided for us without asking. Staying in the port area was nice and central with easy walks, past some amazing archaeology, to the old town and the Playa del Arenal-Bol in one direction and a short hop over to Playa de la Fossa in the other. There is also a brilliant little tourist train which is worth trying. Being in the port area is also a bonus if you like seafood as there are a good number of restaurants here literally specialising in preparing today’s catch for you. The Taberna del Port restaurant which is attached to the hotel is one of the best. We ate here more than once. There is so much to see and do in Calpe. We will certainly return. When we do, we will look for a room at Hotel Porto Calpe.
