My stay at Albatros Hotel was wonderful, with an excellent atmosphere and great amenities at hand. I really loved the diverse dining options, and the proximity to the beach was perfect. However, I found the entertainment to be quite lacking for younger guests. While the room I had was comfortable, it was not as modern as I had hoped. Overall, I would say it was a great value for the experience offered.

We had a wonderful holiday at this hotel, set in a tranquil location just a short stroll from the beach. The ambiance was great, and we enjoyed the warm weather and clean pools. However, the dining experience, particularly at breakfast, could use some improvement in terms of variety and temperature. A few more amenities for children would also be appreciated, especially in a family-focused hotel.

I had a varied experience at the hotel, with clean facilities and a beautiful setting near the beach. The food options were decent but could use more variety. The service was great, particularly from the staff, who were always willing to help. However, the noisy environment near my room and the issue with securing sunbeds detracted from my overall enjoyment.

I had a lovely time at the hotel, with fantastic staff and a convenient location just a short walk from the beach. The meals were varied and well-prepared, particularly enjoyed the themed dinners. However, the room we stayed in could use some updates, and the lack of sufficient sunbeds made it challenging to relax by the pool. Overall, it was a good stay with some room for improvement.

While my stay at the hotel had a few highlights, such as the excellent staff and the convenient location, it was marred by significant noise issues in the room and a disappointing dining experience. Although the staff was attentive and helpful, the value for money was questionable considering the dining options were limited and of lower quality. I did enjoy the cleanliness of the facilities, but the noise levels could use improvement.
Rooms

I was initially placed in a ground floor room near the reception which was quite noisy and not comfortable at all. However, after bringing this to the staff's attention, I was moved to a quieter third-floor room which was better, though I felt all rooms had their noise issues due to the design of the hotel.
