"Surprisingly just a basic Check in not particularly Welcoming - Room was Clean & Attentive Housekeeping - Bedding Strange Top Sheet/Blanket/Top Sheet - No Duvet?? with Bolster Pillows - Excessive Lighting (10 Lights) in Room which were extremely Bright - No Slip Mat in Shower - Very Dangerous! We had a Room with Partial Sea View ‘Partial being the ultimate word’ you could just see on the horizon between the tree tops a bit of Blue.
Wasteful Excessive Lighting across the Whole of the Ground Floor during Daytime Brightly Sunshine Hours?
Food sadly was Disappointing - Poor Variety unless you like Pork/Beef every meal especially the Children’s - In 9 days Chicken only Once and sadly No Paella - The Soups were awful I’ve never had Clear Minestrone. Bread and Fruit were not Fresh - Lots of Big Dishes and Bread everywhere gave a false illusion. Dessert Area - well the same Gateau’s just called differently including a Red Apple Cake? Breakfast Streaky Bacon/Fried Eggs swimming in Oil - Scrambled Eggs were inedible - No Fruit Yogurts or Fruit Purée to add to plain yogurt - Pastries again were not Freshly Baked.
Across nearly all Dishes were Tasteless what you experience with Packet or Frozen Food - A Hotel of the Rating I would expect a ‘Chef’ in Residence who ensures a High Standard of Tasteful Dishes.
Unfortunately we will not return to this Hotel."
"Only stayed one night it's convenient for me plenty of free parking. Hotel is lovely but more for tourists the buffet is mad and busy but hotel offers everything for holiday makers."
"We had a brilliant stay at Hotel Good River. Great value for a 4 night stay including breakfast which offered a great selection of options. Staff were helpful and well organised at getting lots of people seated quickly. Loved how near the park we were and enjoyed the pool too. "
"The room was excellent very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The bed was especially nice and made for a great night’s sleep. The hotel’s location is also a big plus, situated right next to Rambla Nova, which made it very convenient to explore the area. Really enjoyable stay.

"Staff friendly and helpful. Went out of season and hotel was grubby in communal areas. I could imagine pool area being too small when the is hotel busy. Overall, a good stay for price paid."
"The hotel is a friendly and welcoming place to stay. The rooms are a little tired in places, but the staff and the cleanliness are everything that you want. The communal areas are welcoming and the food is a very good standard"
