Hotel Del Mar Mamaia

Not impressed

Problem is that the beach is not private as advertised and it is not with clean sand.

Breakfast should be ordered from the menu, instead of buffet. On the check out they keep you at the desk while one of the employees is checking minibar even after you have told them what you have taken. This was quite rude, like they assume you're lying.

We were attending my son's wedding and the hotel was well located and comfortable and spacious. Not too close to the beach(compared to other beachfront hotels but this was not a factor for us). Well trained and pleasant staff who all spoke in English(not much English spoken in other parts of Constanta). Excellent food and facilities for wedding reception in the hotel.

This was my second stay at this hotel and I will stay there again on my next trip. The hotel is virtually although not directly on the beach - maybe 100m. It is not directly on the main street of Mamia and this is very nice. The rooms are large and spacious. I have stayed in one of their suites and paid less than or close to the amount I would pay for a regular room elsewhere. I had a small problem with my reservation this time - the room I had requested was not available until the next day. They put me in a comparable room and promptly moved me the next morning. Staff is friendly and courteous. Parking is a dream. I have no comment on the restaurant I did not eat there. POSSIBLE MAJOR NEGATIVE - Although I did not experience it, the fine print states that only registered guests are allowed in the room. I had 3 different friends come by during my 4 day stay and we always went to my room. If I had not been allowed to invite them to my room I would have checked out immediately and would never go back. The reason I always take a suite is so that I will have a place to receive and entertain guests. I only saw this fine print about 5 mins before writing this review.

I would like to share this experience so others are aware. We asked for a taxi to the Constanta airport at he hotel's front desk. The front desk arranged the taxi and we were told it would take approximately 40 minutes and it would cost 150 lei. When the cab arrived, he did not use his meter. The drive was less than 20 minutes. The cost was way too much as compared to other cab rides we took. This was confirmed by other Romanian travelers at the airport.

This modern, well-kept hotel is in a good position one block from the sea. However there were weddings on two of our three nights, with no attempt on the part of management to control the noise. On the second night the volume increased dramatically at 02.00 and continued until nearly 05.00. The reception staff seemed surprised when I suggested that an attempt should have been made to control the volume of noise.

the bed is to hard ... the breakfast is noy so good Their are better hotels for the price bathroom had a smell to it

This hotel is a great value. Everything about it was more than I expected.

Modern hotel in Mamai, a couple minutes walk to the beach. Spacious rooms well furnished with great tub and lots of hot water. Expensive relative to other locations in Romania, but for the location, good value. Be sure to ask for room with softer mattress if you are not a fan of extra firm orthopedic mattresses. Reception staff very efficient and helpful.
