Regina Gran Hotel, Salou

Advantages: Very friendly and helpful staff Lovely pools
Disadvantages: food a bit naff..Room too small ..Lots of noisy Spanish people,

...We stayed at the Calypso Hotel in Salou for a 7night trip. On our arrival (10pm) we were politely dealt with by the reception staff. We were put on the top floor of the older building (This was OK for myself and my husband and 12 month old baba , but I wouldn't want to stay on this floor with young children. The lifts were good, and they always worked, and even though they only held 4 people, we didn't have to wait long. Our room was way too small really, and it had very dated furniture and an uncomfortable bed.

...for excursions when alot cheaper to do it yourself like we did. Barcelona is only 11 euros on train but station is otherside of Salou from this hotel. Supermarket round the corner is very cheap for basics we bought booze and sat on our balcony as 2 lite of coke for 1.73 euros and 1 litr bacardi was only 6 euros. Snacks by the pool are reasonably priced. Hotel is very very clean and tidy, maid service very good. Beds are just fold up camp beds which makelot of noise (if you know what I mean) no good if kids sharing ur room they\'ll wake up ours were in rooom next door and still woke up. For a cheap bargain would stay again we paid £616 for week HB for 2 adults and 2 children.... Read review

...Belvedere Hotel- Salou (Costa Dorada). We visited this hotel for one week last May 2005, we choose this Hotel and resort because of price(£650 for 2 adults and one child) and within 2 hours of the U.K. ********************* It is only about half an hour away from the airport and the airport is very small so getting through it is usually pretty quick and easy, unless the baggage handlers are on a go-slow! ********************** On arrival at the hotel check-in was very quick and went to our room in the lift. ********************** The room was ample big enough for the three of us with 2 queen size beds and put you up bed for our son. In the room was satillite tv, air-conditioning and safe... Read review
