Hotel Don Carlos

One way or another, I've been travelling more than 50 years and stayed at some of the best hotels in the world. I would honestly rate this hotel in the very top bracket. Everything about it is first class. The setting with it's wonderful gardens, the friendliness of all the staff, the restaurant (top rating), just everything. Take my word, you will not get a better Pina Colada from the poolside bar - and their Sangria is excellent. The pool itself is a very good size and you are always able to get seating and an umbrella - even at the weekends when it becomes busy. We took a Junior Suite, which was essentially two large rooms, and it was extremely comfortable. If I have a niggle, the bath & shower are not easy to get in and out of if you are elderly or have knee problems, but we managed. I truly cannot recommend this hotel high enough, and we have stayed at almost all, if not all the luxury hotels along that coast..

Don't be fooled by thinking this is a little oasis by the photos. No service after 1800 except a coin drinks dispenser. The air-conditioning does not work. The garden in front of the hotel seems to be a playground for local teenagers pudding on their weed. The breakfast is in a site that is clearly used as a canteen for the next door industrial zone. I feel sorry for the staff who try there best. But I must rate this hotel as one of my worst experiences on 22 years of living in Spain. As you will see the paid breakfast has nothing to do with a normal cold buffet!

I has a very pleasant stay at Don Carlos. Rooms are rather small, but nicely and effectively furnished in modern style, quiet and very clean. The personnel is smiling and helpful. Things like bathroom equipment - toothbrush, shampoos but also a hotel logo branded pen are definitelly above-average features for a hotel of this price category. My room also included spatious terrace, which was very agreeable even if the view wasn't appealing. There was many electric plugs in the room and Wi-Fi connection worked very well. I evaluate this hotel as perfect choice for business trips.

Exellent treatment in this cosy hotel, with super big rooms (not suites, but similar in size).the bathroom is well attached through a corridor and separated by an extra door. They have a car park outdoors with a gate that closes at night, completely free, surveilled by CCTV. The garden was beautiful with a terrace and a small counter. Unfortunately, we couldn't make much use of it, but our window had a fntastic view to it. We had the chance to have late check-out till 2pm. Excellent staff both at reception, as well as in the buffet at breakfast time. Congratulations!

I could not believe it when I saw it. Really nice room. Clean. Friendly staff. Everything just really really fine. I decided to stay there two nice instead of the one originally planned. I do sincerely suggest a stay

A great hotel with very nice rooms. The grounds are very nicely laid out and I can imagine that in summer time it is a great outdoor location. The location is not great as it is on the outskirts of the town but there is a bus service and the taxi ride to the center of town is 9 Euro. Breakfast was excellent. I would go there again and highly recommend it.
