Hotel Best Punta Dorada

We are currently in our second week of our holiday. I will summarise my experience so far. Pros Quiet hotel close to some lovely quiet beaches away from the hustle and bustle of the main area of Salou 25 minute walk to Salou if you feel the need to go there Rooms are kept clean however paper cups aren’t the best as said by previous reviews. Food in buffet on half board is repetitive but we have managed to find something most days to eat. Most of the staff are happy and helpful Cons Now this is my biggest gripe The pool area. Whilst it’s small we have managed to get a sun lounger every day however the cleanliness is not great. The floors are spot cleaned in the morning for the bird poo with a mop and bucket. The glass screens have been cleaned once since we have been here. The floors are sticky, gritty and drink stained The tables are rarely cleaned and I’ve yet to see the sun loungers cleaned . Such a shame as it lets the rest of the hotel down. I would have given this hotel a 5 star had it not been for the pool area.

Can’t fault the hotel at all it was really nice and it was spotless everywhere all the staff were really nice the rooms were big with 2 double beds big balcony a nice sea view there was a fridge and kettle air con was good and had a lovely bathroom we went A/C the drinks were really good some were branded ones if your drink isent on the AC menu you only have to pay 1 to 4 euros depending on which drink you want now the food this is where they need to improve it was always cold so we needed to warm it up in the microwave also not a lot of choice but that’s just my opinion I’ve been to other 4 star hotels where there’s a lot more choice but I must say the food we had was nice the desserts were pretty much the same each night saying that we had a really nice stay at this hotel and really enjoyed it it’s a quiet peaceful hotel but there’s buses at the top of the incline to take you to various places there’s a nice bar there aswell sells food and lots of different drinks and then further on than that you come to cap salou with a few bars and shops it was only 2.05 euros for the 10 minute bus ride into salou there’s a nice beach near by just a stroll through the park across the road 10 euros for a sunbed and 5 euros for a sun umberella there’s a beach bar which we thought was a bit pricey food wise we all had a really nice holiday if you want somewhere quiet and peaceful then this is the place

la segunda noche esta vez con vistas al mar.

Me alojé dos noches y la primera, aunque había pagado vistas al mar, sólo se veía el mar detrás de los arboles y un 80% de la vista se tapaba también con el edificio de en frente y una pared, hab 316. La habitación de la segunda noche, la 517 si tenía vistas al mar y sí me gustó. Sin árboles, sin pared ni el edificio tapando las vistas. Soy extrabajadora de recepción de hotel y no puedes vender una habitación vistas al mar cuando son vistas al mar parciales. Deberían tener una categoría de habitación de "vistas parciales al mar". En Booking.com el establecimiento no pone ninguna foto con vistas parciales al mar, sólo fotografías fantásticas de vistas despejadas al mar. Deberían ponerlas todas. Cuelgo dos fotografías con la diferencia. El personal lo he valorado mal porque la primera noche cuando pedí cambio de habitación la recepcionista ni si quiera miró si podía cambiarme de habitación, eran las 20h, entiendo que dijo no a la primera porque ya habrían llegado todos los huéspedes y porque estaban llenos. El último dia pedí un late checkout a las 13h y se me denegó sin mirarlo, deben tener esta política de prohibir los late checkout... (a cambio me ofrecieron ducha de cortesia). Ese día, siendo un domingo de mayo, no estaban llenos, había mucha disponibilidad de habitaciones en Booking.

We had a short 4 night stay at the Punta Dorada and we were very happy with the service on reception, nothing was too much trouble, the housekeeping team keep the rooms spotless, the food wasn't always to our taste even though there is always plenty of choice, the restaurant is also down in the basement which doesn't create much ambiance. Cap salou is a nice quiet area ideal for couples but not lively enough for families, there's a nice walk along side the beach but quite steep to get down to the beach, we had a run on the little tourist train in to salou itself but didn't stay there long as it was too hectic

Ubicacion perfecta y personal tambien

Nos encanto la ubicación. La habitación tenia vistas al mar, maravillosas. El personal muy amable. Fui con mi madre de 90 años, el trato exquisito. Vovere sin duda.

This is a lovely clean and friendly hotel. The rooms are comfortable with good clean fresh linen and towels. The restaurant is bright clean and airy serving a good selection of foods and drinks, with friendly staff. The pool area is nice with plenty of beds and umbrellas should you need one. The bar area has lovely staff all of them were friendly and provided a quick service with a smile. We did try to book another visit before we even left but it was all booked for this season. The beach is local and within 10mins walking distance you can get sunbed and umbrellas on a lovely sandy beach. A beautiful resort well worth a visit
