Consiglio

Esperienza positiva, struttura eccellente, personale professionale e simpatico. Vicinissimo al mare e alla capitale, serve comunque l'auto per girare l'isola. Ho fatto presente alla direzione che erano presenti animali spiacevoli nelle aiuole e prontamente hanno risolto il problema .

Out of season so not much open Most services tend to cater more for the German market Good excellent generally though vegetarian options limited Meat range was exceptional Would stay again but would like a broader range of vegetarian options at dinner.

Trop bruyant à cause des Allemands.
Didier, 5-night trip

Friendly staff, plenty of choice for breakfast and dinner. Room was very clean. It was a bit far from Palma - 25 minutes on the bus, which stops just around the corner from the hotel, as does the A2 airport bus.

Hotel rooms and pool area spotlessly clean. No problem getting sun beds only thing lacking is no kettle in rooms and shortage of hanging space for longer clothing

Not the hotel we booked.

We booked the Riu Festival but on arrival was told we was moved to the Riu Concordia. Luckily it was only down the road. This hotel was excellent and cannot fault it one bit but very disappointed neither hotels.com nor the Riu group told us prior.

Fab hotel Clean and tidy A short taxi ride from the airport and regular bus service to palma. The food was exceptional massive choice and often something different every day. The hotel is a short walk to the beach and has a pool. No gym or spa. There seemed to be a lot of drunk germans about though
