Pros:

A localização é um ponto de referência, as instalações apesar de antigas são muito interessantes e bonitas.
A limpeza dos espaços interiores e exteriores é algo a destacar.
A área de SPA é espaçosa, tem jacuzzi c água bastante quente, a piscina interior é grande e a sauna também funciona bastante bem. .

Cons:

Parte do piso da piscina interior precisa de manutenção.
As comodidades também poderiam ser melhoradas: chaleira em todos os quartos (sem ser necessário pedir), robes e chinelos.
No entanto, no geral, gostámos do hotel e do serviço. Recomendamos

Muito tranquila
Pros:

Localização e envolvimento

Cons:

Apenas uma noite houve um barulho imenso por volta das 2h da manhã e telefonamos para a recepção e o telefone não funcionava. Tivemos que nos levantar , dirigir à recepção e disseram que era o gerador .

Tranquilo
Pros:

Hotel muito bem localizado, numa zona calma junto a ria. Hotel com uma boa diversidade de espaços(interiror e exteriro) e bem cuidado. Todo staff foi muito atencioso e um especial obrigado para a equipa da animação arcoris (Madalena, Julio, Felly e Alex) que tornaram estas férias ainda mais especiais.

Cons:

Uma nota: Penso que seria importante melhorar o acesso ao Jacuzzi.

O Restaurante devia servir os pratos que tem na ementa para termos outra opção em vez do buffet.
Achei o buffet caro.
