Hi there , is this a side sea view.. I’m at the moment trying to work out the room basis .. Also are the drink prices at the bar reasonable , TIA. 😊
@RonanandAlex4 күн бұрын
Hey! This room was a forward facing sea view, although at one part we visit a families room and they had the side sea view. The drink prices were reasonable for UK prices, but a little more expensive from the “Spain pricing”

Glad to see that the Selomar Hotel has finally re-opened as Barceló Benidorm Beach. It lay empty with scaffolding around it for over 5 years. It looks really nice following the refurbishment.

@davidbirrell8964Ай бұрын
Good report. My late parents enjoyed their stay in a corner room at Hotel RH Royal many years before the last full refurbishment. I remember seeing the building sitting as a shell (with lifts working) around 10 years ago during refurbishment . I stayed at Hotel Poseidon and Hotel Poseidon Palace during most of my trips to Benidorm which I highly recommend.

Hi, thanks as you will see in the video we referred to the big pool and also filming round a pool is not exactly advisable! We even mentioned how great the pool area was one of the biggest we had seen! We think the hotel has 2 sides after this video some people love it some hate it! All down to opinion!

I have taken the 321T many times on First and Business and agree that AA offers the best overall. The only thing that I really care about is the inconsistency in onboard services. I mean, some of the crews are not doing their jobs and trying to rush through everything. It happened to me twice; once, they cleaned up my table, but I had not yet finished my meal, and the second time, they didn't care about taking my meal order and kept ignoring me. :/// Well, primarily, mostly were good experiences. The crews are mostly very friendly and professional. One time, even though I sat in Economy, they still asked me if I wanted anything to eat after waking up from my nap; this is genuine care! :333
@RonanandAlex2 ай бұрын
This was our first experience on the 321T, it appeared to be very good and we do hope the new 321s AA are getting will up the level of service with a better hard product and better soft product. We noticed in the US service levels really do differ a lot, but when there good there really good! 😍

Do you understand the way star ratings work for all inclusive resorts? I think not. The number of stars reflects the amount of amenities, not the quality. I’m not sure you’re qualified to be taken seriously as a resort reviewer. This resort is very budget level, you should have reviewed as such.

Hotels get battered because guests just throw their stuff around the rooms and pool areas...look at the mess yous have created in a few days lol. At least tidy your room before doing a review. A lot of guests are bed and breakfast and most guests know the rooms don't have a kettle. Some people do upgrade on arrival checkout FB, it's asked every other day. What a rubbish review!
