I was surprised to read such a negative in the previous review... you see, the queen wrote a review... no less! maybe people went to SPAIN! in Lloret de Maar! ! sit all day in the room, look for flaws and choke on your negativity!
and now about our impressions!!!
The hotel is located in Lloret de Mar. As we were told, this is perhaps the most party city on the Costa Brava. From the hotel to the sea, 3 minutes to the sea, if not in a hurry. The hotel is located on the most central street of the city, 3 minutes to the sea, if not in a hurry. Lived in a room with a view of the whole ebullient life! The first two nights were dying of irritation and the desire to somehow fall asleep... it turned out with difficulty, because. from about 20-00 to 05-00 in the morning the most "party" begins: an endless string of tourists marching along the street, screams, yelling, the movement of cars and the growl of motorcycles, not forgotten, and by the end of the stay, already a native automatic power meter! on which they beat, that there are dope all night long warmed up guys! It's unforgettable! Now I definitely miss it! But, looking at the silence other tourists from our group live in, you understand that this is BOREDOM! By the end of the first week, we already fell in love with everything that annoyed us to the itch in the first two days!

Meals: if you don’t put too much weight on yourself, I can say that the food (breakfast, dinner) is more than decent! Breakfast: ham, sausage type 2-3, cheese, muesli, scrambled eggs, meat patties, a whole table of croissant buns and other muffins, tea, coffee, juices, jams, a wide variety of fruits!! ! Yes, it is simply impossible to try all this in one breakfast! BUT! Tea-coffee is poured by a vending machine, of which there are only two,... and there are a lot more people, so that those who want to drink the liquid stand in long lines... which, of course, is annoying...
Dinner: 3 types of fish, meat, sausages, cutlets, a separate table of salads, 3-4 types of desserts, ice cream, 3-4 types of side dishes, again fruits: melon, watermelon, cherries, peaches, plums, apples, pear, pineapple. . . ! Is this not enough?
Service: the room has air conditioning and a TV set, in order to get a remote control at the reception you need to leave a deposit of 10 euros... we managed without both absolutely great! it wasn't before. . .
The room was cleaned daily, but the towels were changed every 2-3 days. I was unpleasantly surprised that soap is not put daily! out of habit, I don’t even take it with me, but here it is! But, if you catch the service staff in the morning and explain WHAT you need, then the request will be fulfilled... however, it’s still ONCE! those. ask every morning. . .
I will pay special attention to the meeting party. This is Meli Tours... This is a separate verse, and the saddest of the whole song... we had the honor to see our Lena (mobile phone 650-748-281) only once in 14 days, and she regularly left information for tourists about the date and time of the meeting , and did NOT appear with the same regularity! We went on excursions with Tez Tour: good Russian-speaking girls.
In general, the hotel: I can safely recommend it for your vacation!! ! We were satisfied!
So, small notes of staying in Lloret de Maar, a place of ABSOLUTELY happy people! …

There is practically NO animation in the hotel, except for live music in the restaurant on the 1st floor (the hotel residents eat in the restaurant on the 2nd floor)... old foreigners are sitting at the tables, dancing... every evening there seems to be a different theme of music... we all this case was observed only from the outside, how foreign pensioners dance (and with sorrow they remembered our Russian pensioners, humiliated and insulted by their homeland! ). But, believe me, this is NOTHING compared to what happens outside the hotel!! ! Don't bother with some hotel animation!! ! This is not Turkey, not Tunisia, not Egypt!!! ! Where tourists live on a reservation, away from a major city… This is SPAIN!! ! And this is Lloret de Mar!!! ! Run from the hotel, come only to sleep! For example, on the border of Lloret and the city of Blanes, everything is much quieter and calmer! Although it is 15-20 min. walk from the center! But this silence, I think, is for pensioners, although foreign pensioners light SO !! ! God bless every young person! we are far from young girls, and then we were torn in doubts about what to devote every hour to! After all, 14 days is so little! You will have the most interesting excursions for the whole day, the beach, the sun and the magical clear sea, independent walks - I strongly recommend this!
Excursions: from 30s, the most expensive (somewhere around 60-80s) was to some border French town (not Andorra), my friend went, I didn’t go... I would have driven to Andorra, but this town didn’t tell me about what I didn’t say... Be sure to go to the panoramic view of Barcelona, ​ ​ ​ ​ the S. Dali Museum, Galla Castle, you can go on foot to the Cactus Park (from the center of Lloret, at a walking pace of 25-30 minutes, this is on the border with Blanes)... I really like cacti... but what I saw there! It’s fabulous, of course… the entrance ticket is 4th… there’s no point in taking an excursion to this park… a friend went on an evening excursion to Barcelona to see the Singing Fountains, which is also apparently beautiful…
Aaaaa, we also went to the town of Tossa on the last day... a boat runs from the beach (round-trip ticket 11 e, 30 minutes on the way, the panorama is INSANELY beautiful !!!! ), the schedule is there on the beach, at the points for selling ex th... you just need to have at least 3 hours left to wander around Tossa on your own, you can return with the last steamboat... Tossa, in its calmness and measured life, is like a small village compared to a metropolis... having lived in the center of Lloret for 14 days, and having got to Tossa, I realized that I would have howled with longing there... this is a place for recreation for pensioners and couples with small children... boredom!... but also a beautiful town in its own way, no doubt!
Lloret itself is the place where you need to wander endlessly on foot!! ! Along the coastline, go-go and go. . . if to the left, you will climb a mountain-cliff: a gorgeous panorama opens up! There is also a beautiful Castle, but you will not be able to get close to it, because. it is fenced off... but you can see from afar and admire... if to the right of Lloret beach, go up to the Sailors stele... you can stomp further... through summer cafes and mountainous, hilly, beautiful terrain you will get to Fenals beach (this is also Lloret, but a different beach)... if you party people, then you definitely need to take a hotel in the center of Lloret de Maar !! ! This is the center of the universe!! ! Lloret with Fenals beach is a quieter place…

Shopping: I was the least interested in this question... but I still took something... it’s better to walk around the shops (mini-shops) in the Center of Lloret (if you stand on the center street facing the sea, then on the left, as if deep in the block... there many shops with clothes, shoes, and jewelry). .
One more tip! Surely you want to bring alcohol home... I advise you to ask the price in supermarkets... I concluded that in large markets - the cheapest alcohol! Gin 0.5 l - 5-18 e... we drank Sangria wine instead of juice... it is low-alcohol and very pleasant... 1 l - from 1 e... it's just hard to believe it! Another important thing: I advise you not to rely on duty free (in terms of alcohol), it’s still a little more expensive there (checked! ), BUT !! ! If you decide to buy alcohol not in duty free, then all this will have to be packed in Luggage!! ! Hand luggage will not be allowed! For example, I packed 4 bottles in my luggage... and everything was delivered intact... of course, if you take something in duty free, then this can already be carried in hand luggage with you on the plane...
