From the moment we walked into the reception area, we had very positive vibes. The staff on reception were friendly and welcoming. The room was lovely, a very good size and modern with a large balcony. There was a large pool downstairs and we also had access to the Sky Lounge on the roof which we visited for the 3 days during our stay. It was so peaceful being up there and away from everything. Great infinity pool to cool off in and a fabulous bar serving drinks, including amazing cocktails and lovely food. A BIG thank you to Celia who ensured everyone in the Sky Lounge was well looked after. She made our stay very memorable. This hotel is the best I have stayed in and would highly recommend it.

Hotel was amazing, possibly best one in Calella. Unfortunately the area is not the best and the views of the other shoddy hotels was not good. But it was a short walk to a lovely part of town so worth it!

Not a 5* hotel. The rooms are nice and well cleaned. The Pool View rooms see you staring at dilipidated Hotels that are very close. Breakfast was a disappointment- they say Egg station, eggs cooked to order- instead a pot of scrambled eggs. They fail to utilse the roof bar- only open twice a week. E20 deposit for towels is not 5* behaviour.

God but could be better for the price.
This is a modern hotel towards the end of town and so not near the shops and restaurants of Calella's centre. The plus: Big pool and a jacuzzi, big comfy bed, large room (we had chosen the contemporary ones rather than the mediterranean ones) and balcony, good mojitos. The minus: corridors not very clean, Hotels.com mentions 3 pools but only 1 is free, you have to pay to get to the 2 others, no pool towels provided, all this makes it quite pricey in the end. Finaly, no forthcoming info given on the spa or the beach club ( we realised they had a beach area 3 days into our stay).
