Pretty, modern and good service.
Pros:

What an amazing stay! A beautiful hotel located in Nessebar a 10 minute drive to Sunny beach. With exceptional staff we felt so welcomed and comfortable during our stay. The food and drinks were excellent, with lovely bar staff always giving a warm service. The pool and the amenities were all very clean and modern. We enjoyed our stay so much and I would definitely recommend.

Cons:

Nothing it was all perfect.

Fint hotell med fin beliggenhet
Pros:

Flott rom med nydelig utsikt over havet.

Cons:

Det var mye måker på taket der hvor bassenget lå. De var litt aggressive. Gjester burde oppfordres til ikke å mate dem.

Pros:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Am avut o experiență excelentă la Hotel Marina Palace din Nessebar! Camera a fost spațioasă, curată și confortabilă, cu o priveliște superbă. Personalul a fost foarte amabil și atent la toate nevoile noastre. Micul dejun a fost variat și gustos, iar locația hotelului este perfectă, la câțiva pași de orașul vechi și de promenadă. Atmosfera este relaxantă, iar serviciile sunt de foarte bună calitate. Recomand cu încredere acest hotel tuturor celor care doresc un sejur plăcut la malul mării.

Cons:

Faptul că nu mergea mereu brățara de la mâna ca să intri in camera.

Pros:

Hotel foarte îngrijit, modern, curat, aproape de centrul vechi. Am avut parte de multă liniște, mâncare bună, cameră frumoasă și răcoroasă (mulțumim că ați ținut cont de rugămintea noastră și ne-ați oferit cameră cu pat dublu♥️). E un loc ideal de relaxare, cu o priveliște superbă, în care ai parte de tot ce îți trebuie și ești aproape de toate punctele de atracție din Nessebar.

Cons:

Am avut un mic război cu curentul (se tot oprea dacă nu ne mișcam prin cameră), dar a fost amuzant oarecum😆. Apa din piscină un pic cam murdară, dar nu ceva care sa ne deranjeze atât de mult încât să nu oferim o notă maximă.

Hotel sa nám veľmi páčil, strava bola vynikajúca. Mali sme zaplatenú izbu smerom do mesta, po príchode do hotela nám na recepcii oznámili, že budeme v izbe otočenej smerom na more. Takže to bolo super. Mali sme krásny výhľad na more a aj Starý Nesebar.

Nice Hotel Close To The Old Town
Pros:

We were recommended Nessebar by a travel agent and it's not disappointed as a resort; think Dubrovnik without the hassle when you're in the old town across the causeway which is an easy walk from the Sol Marina Palace hotel.

The hotel is very clean and well staffed. Food is acceptable as all-inclusive arrangements go; each day has a country's cuisine theme for the evening meal menu but breakfast and lunch have a good selection too. If you don't already know, Bulgarians don't have their food super hot so you might find warm soup or tepid dishes unless you get something straight from their grill. Staff are very friendly and speak far better English than I do Bulgarian.

We were in room 120 (see floor map attached) which while comfortable with a nice bathroom and effective AC was immediately above the lobby bar and it's outdoor area on on end and overlooked the lobby atrium at the other end so it wasn't the quietest room at times. I'd recommend trying to get on the odd numbered side of the building which also overlooks the old town; if you can get to the back of any given floor (101 or 102 in that floor plan would be ideal but same applies on floors 2, 3 and 4) then you'd have a quieter time all things considered.

That one quibble aside, I'd recommend this adults only hotel and it's older demographic over a stay anywhere in Sunny Beach!

Nice easy walk in to Nessebar
Pros:

Went here for our anniversary. Been to Bulgaria several times before but mostly in the mountain area, Sofia and Plovdiv. Nice hotel, yes, the pool is small but perfectly adequate for a nice jump in and cool off. Of course there are pigeons and seagulls around - you're on the coast. Bit of bird poo on one of the cushions of the sunbeds. Generally the whole hotel was kept nice and clean and tidy. Our room was perfectly OK with all facilities available. Iron, ironing board, spare pillows, soap and shampoo all provided.

Abysmal food and to loud after midnight
Pros:

Let me start with the positives, the location and views are super. The cleanliness was probably the best we've ever experienced. Sadly that is all the good I can say.
Our areas of serious complaint where regarding the appalling food during the holiday, which was poor from the first day and progressively deteriorated to a level which was inedible. The Hotel was winding down to close and this was apparent by the daily reduction in the food offered. Our next major complaint is the fact the hot food was cold all of the time. I don’t expect to pay for All Inclusive and on most evenings have to go out to local restaurants to dine out. My wife and I have travelled far and wide for many years, and I state categorically the food served at the Sol Marina Palace is by far the worse we’ve every come across. I cannot underscore enough how utterly appalling and cold the food was at this Hotel.

The better choice of hot meat was served at 6pm as the restaurant opened and was gone well before 7pm. It was never replaced so the early diners got food that was not offered to the rest of us. Not everyone wants to eat so early and even if everyone did the restaurant wouldn't hold everyone at once.

They had outside areas for both dining and in the marina bar and haven't the sense to purchase patio heaters for when the evenings get cold.

If the Hotel was going to be running down for closing – I feel this should have made this clear in the brochure and given anyone booking the choice and knowledge this was going to be the case at this Hotel.

When we booked this holiday, it was on the basis it was a 4 star, All Inclusive, Adults Only Hotel. We were put in a room on the 4th floor, one level below the Sky Bar. The noise was unbearable after 4 nights we had to formally request a room move!! The reception staff and the Duty Manager showed very little interest and had I not made a very forthright complaint I doubt they would have moved us. I can only sum this up as like being on an 18 -30 holiday.

The Hotel states the Sky Bar closes at 12 midnight – It certainly isn’t acceptable for drunks to be shouting, making a nuisance of themselves and be running around the Hotel after 1am. With a 24-hour reception they were fully aware of this unacceptable behaviour on a number of nights and did nothing about it.

A very pleasant stay with lots of make me smile moments
Pros:

The hotel is in the perfect position and has some very interesting features.
The top deck has fabulous views of 360 degrees with a sky bar and makes it feel very boutiquee as does the glass domed lift at the front of the hotel overlooking the sea.
Positives for me were the staff, the food( duck, salmon. Sea bass plus the more obvious meats, the choice of drinks, the spa treatment, my balcony view was wow and the electronic shower made me smile. Plus the small beach at the front of the hotel was perfect and sea was wonderful to swim in . Adult only in this smallish hotel in a perfect setting felt blissful
Getting to the old town of Nessebar was a hop skip and a jump away. Explore thoroughly , immerse yourself in the history and walk the old town peninsular promenade too .
Negatives - don’t go end of season my last two days weren’t as good because hotel closed on my last day,
Tad more entertainment in the evening would of been good .
