Escapada de fin de semana
Pros:

Me gustó la ubicación, la estética del edificio, la habitación y el hotel en sí mismo.

Cons:

Esperaba más del desayuno, que aunque es bueno y aceptable creo que no es el esperable para un hotel de 4 estrellas ni mucho menos. Fiambres quesos y bollería de escasa calidad, huevos fritos varias horas antes, en fin, desayuno manifiestamente mejorable. He probado desayunos mejores o con mejor género en hoteles de 3 estrellas e incluso en casas rurales. Pero no quiero que tampoco se me mal interprete, es variado y completo.

A stunning hotel that fulfilled our expectations and provided a welcome escape from reality.
Pros:

Very impressive building and location. Modern interior and architecture and very clean. It was quiet and the room had terrific views of the promenade and beach.

Cons:

The property was excellent and reception desk staff were very friendly. Breakfast staff not so, at no point during breakfast were my used plates removed so the table filled up with clutter. There were only a few guests having breakfast so no excuse really. A real shame all things considering.

Una noche de paso
Pros:

La ubicación está bien si quieres estar cerca del Sardinero y de la playa. Tiene parking de pago en el hotel aunque en los alrededores se puede aparcar.

Cons:

Las almohadas eran algo bajas. El desayuno está bien pero para el tipo de hotel que es me esperaba algo más completo.
