" Me and my boyfriend here on 24th... "
Submitted By: Miss L G
Me and my boyfriend here on 24th august 2008, which was the bank holiday weekend in which we travelled. I had previously already been salou in 2006, and stayed in Goldern playa park which was a fantastic hotel. Well now about playa margarita, we arrived at the hotel on sunday about 5pm, and there was a man about 24ish who spoke well english and we were given our room straight away, no waiting about which was good. Going up to the room we were sure it would be nice, as from outside the hotel is nice, and the reception, hall ways etc were all good, absolutely nothing wrong with them and very clean. We got into our room and we were extremely pleased, it was nice and airy, and well decorated, the bathroom was lovely, clean and water hot. only thing is the shower didnt have a tub, it was like all same level flooring, meaning the water went all over the bathroom floor, so that was a bit annoying. We just laid down the towels they provided to stop it coming out the room. Just ask for more at reception if need more towels, they gave them quite freely.
Food was brilliant, lots too choose from, lovely desserts, u cant go wrong, however have to say by the 5th day all the food jus started to taste the same because the flavourings were very similiar, however all in all great food and choice, and dinner hall was nice and staff very helpful. we were fullboard, but they ony gave drinks with breakfast, which meant lunch and dinner time u had to pay for drinks, which can be quite alot when u spending 3 euros on bottled water each time.
Location wise this hotel is perfect, jus like 2 mins away from main strip where all shops, bars, resturants are, so 10 outter 10 for thay.
Also there are like 3 beaches within 5 mins walk, which is great, one of them is like 2 mins away up the hill, then turn right and you see it. This was the small one which we honestly love because was just right and not too packed, which we found in the larger beach, which you see if u walk lil further then the small beach. Cleab beaches and plenty things to do water games wise for kids, lovely atmosphere and we were there nearly everyday.
A fun day out would be too go to aquapolis water park which is in la pineda about a 10 min bus ride away and will cost about 2 to 3 euros. The actually park tickets are around 23 euros, but I would reccommend to go because it is great fun, couldn't fault it. But buying your lunch there you will find a rip off, because a chicken burger is like 6 euros!!
But what can u do, u have to eat!! Only other option is take a packed luch with ya., which you would have to keep in a locker there, which is also a bit of a rip of at 8 euros, however you get 3 euros back on returing the key, so although may be pricey, well worth it, because the fun you have will make it all worth it. I have to say all in all spain in very exspensive at the moment, and no cheaper then uk, so something one should be prepared for.
Evening wise loads food places and bars to go too but in august it starts getting dead clubbing wise, best to go june july time for the best nightlife, clubs and bar wise. Shops and stuff still very busy though. Too much and tropical nice bars to go too, but once agin drinks pricey at 8 euros for a malibu and lemonade, however they do give generous portions over there, its more like a triple the a single. Kiss great club to go too along the strip.
Hotel entertainment was okay, not bad, something different everynight, great for families, kids will enjoy it. Maids clean room daily, and towels changed daily, however our bedsheets werent changed the whole week we was there.
Also there is one blonde haired women who was at reception alot, who was extremely rude, couldnt speak barely any english, and only was nice to the spanish people, trust me, you will know who this lady is when you get there.
Also once i asked to borrow the iron for just 5 mins to iron a top, and this nasty women said to me will cost me 2 euros!! thats a disgrace, never have i been to a hotel where they charge to to use the iron, it is usually standard part of every hotel service!! even travel lodge let u borrow the iron, and they are known to jus provide very basics, which is the bed!!!
But i have to say I had a great time at this hotel, and these little negative points are a minor and will not spoil ur holiday or your stay in this hotel.. It is a brilliant hotel and my mum is thinking of going, and i wouldnt mind going again.

" We have just arrived back from salou... "
Submitted By: Mr M Smith
We have just arrived back from salou after our 1st holiday abroad with 2 small children and having read the reviews we were worried this was going to be a big dissapointment.
From the moment we arrived at the airport we had the best time ever the hotel we can not fault it was very clean the family room we were allocated was better than we thought with ample space. The choice of food being offered was great the only down side was no drinks are provided with evening meals and you have to buy your water for 3 euro you can not take your own in. the pool was great and the kids entertainment was fine with plenty to offer. Staff are very friendly. To be fair this hotel is only a 3 star rating to us it was like a 5 star hotel with marble floors and stairs. we are looking to go again in 2009 and will be trying for this hotel again. Please don't listen to the bad reviews maybe some expectations are more than others to us we wished we were still there. Only 1 more point to make itf your are a family going it is cheaper to use a taxi as transfers from the airport there and back than buy bus at a cost of £66.00 all in.

" Brilliant location, only a 5 minute... "
Submitted By: H Verrills
Brilliant location, only a 5 minute walk from the main nightlife and clubs. I went with 3 other friends looking for a fun, girls holiday, and Salou was perfect. Clean beaches, plenty of places to eat out and drink, the sea front is gorgeous at night. The hotel itself is really clean and well looked after. However, the staff didn't speak brilliant English so it was sometimes difficult to understand them. The food is fine, something for everyone. Didn't sample much of the brekfast, we weren't getting in til 5-6am!! Please dnt listen to the bad reviews, this hotel is fine for what you will need it for. The entertainment isn't very good but due to the number of clubs and pubs around it wasn't an issue for us.

Great hotel, Food was nice, Accommodation was clean and staff were helpful. My only negative comment is that the aircon stopped working for first night and it had been 28c in day and min of 21c overnight so was rather warm sleeping as you can imagine.

" if you are young i would advise you... "
Submitted By: Miss L Moody
if you are young i would advise you not to go there its more for familys and older people. if i new when i got there i would of asked for a hotel who wanted noise because we was coming in at 3 nearly every mornin and bein a bit loud, however we was never up for brekfast because it was discustiing think we only made it once or twice and when we did go it looked like dryed up food which didnt look enjoyble at all. there was a few nights where the food wasnt to good but if you like meat then thats ok i enjoyed it but my friend was eatin chips and bread for 2 weeks unless we went to eat out. one problem with the room was the bed it was like sleepin on rocks only reson bein u had a little pillow which made you have a sore back the next day. everything else was spot on shower was lovley balcony was good to look at and make friends. but if you are young nightlife is really really good try bus stop kiss 007 and ski hut and go to jimmys they will love you lol! so all together the holiday was brill everything went well just a few people in reception was ignorant and rude to you! and others helped you out as much as possible so thankyou and see you probley next year but not to this hotel .. lisa 18 nottingham

Submitted By: Miss J Atherton
I would just like to say, pleaaase DO NOT listen to the bad reviews!! i have just got back from a week staying in this hotel and i thought it was brilliant! i went with my friend for a relaxing holiday and to try out a few of the bars/clubs. the hotel is situated in the perfect location, yes its up a slight hill but its 5 minutes from the beech if you turn left and litrally two minute walk to the shops and bars on your right.
the hotel is kept very clean and tidy and our rooms were cleaned every morning imacuatly. The outside pool is quite small, but is great for when you need a dip from being so hot! all outside area is kept very clean and safe.
Before going on holiday i read some reveiws saying the food was very poor. well i dont know if its changed since then but i thought the food was great. it offers a wide range, something for everyone with different meats vegatables and pastas. the puddings were very yummy and offered all sorts. they looked very pretty. breakfasts was very good too, offereng everything you could want for breakfasts! fry -ups very nice!
Salou is a awsome place to go to! it has everything you could want for a the nightlife is fantastic!! ive been to Salou twice now and i would always go back =).
Overall Playa Margarita hotel is a lovely hotel and you get what you pay for. if your paying three star price then that is what you get. i would deffently come back again, if your young then deffently come here, its great!!

" Before going to the H10 Margarita I... "
Submitted By: Ms K McNally
Before going to the H10 Margarita I have to admit I was a bit nervous from reading some of the reviews. Our hotel room was spotless & cleaned to perfection every morning. The hotel overall was very clean. I was very disappointed with the food, the food was never cooked properly, it always looked quite raw. My fiance & I ended up eating out alot of the time.
The entertainment was appalling, it was a repeat every couple of nights. The pool was very small & quite cold.
The good thing about this hotel is how clean it is & also the location of how close it is to the beach, shops etc...
I would not go back to this hotel.

" This hotel was everything I could... "
Submitted By: Miss L Mcpherson
This hotel was everything I could have asked for. I went on holiday with my boyfriend and stayed in H10 Playa Margarita for 14 nights - Half board. However before our trip we read these bad reviews and were worried sick about going to Playa Margaritas! But I am pleased to say we thought it was a well run hotel with a warm greeting on arrival with friendly and helpful staff.
The food was at a very high standard with great variety and a different theme and selection every night. The rooms were spacious, clean and safe. The hotel is very central for shops, bars, restaurants and very close to the beaches. The hotel also had live entertainment every night which was also good and professional, the hotel was also child friendly and has a children's club. It also boasts a gym and indoor pool as well as outdoor which we used frequently.
The hotel did not have any school children in sight and was also a family hotel, we didn't come across any pensioners!!
I would definitely recommend this hotel. My boyfriend and I are currently trying to book again.
Don't listen to the bad reviews!!!

" I have been to Salou 4 years in a row... "
Submitted By: Mrs S Mcnally
I have been to Salou 4 years in a row and have never experienced anything like it in my life.
Salou is brill but this accommodation was not good for me and my husband and 4 kids.
I just about agree with every bad review written about Playa Margarita. My husband and son could only eat chips we had to eat out most of the time which I did not budget for.
Spanish school kids keep you awake all night knocking on your door. The only decent entertainment was Emile, whom we saw twice during the fortnight we were there.
I would recommend Salou but go self catering to another accommodation e.g. International 2 or Las Dalies.

" My boyfriend and I were extremely... "
Submitted By: Miss J Kniveton
My boyfriend and I were extremely impressed with the Hotel facilities.
Our room was extremely clean and modern however, we were extremely overlooked by the hotel opposite and there was a very bad smell that failed to disappear during the duration of our stay.
We were based on the top of the hotel which could only be accessed by stairs as the lift failed to reach our floor.
The staff were extremely friendly and especially helpful in the restaurant. The food was very basic but offered something for everyone.
Salou is very cramped and many buildings are very rundown. There are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants although we didn't actually eat out as the restaurants didn't look particularly appetising.
The hotel offers evening entertainment every night, some of which is far better than others. As it was my boyfriends first visit to Spain we made a conscious effort to stay and watch the flamenco evening which was absolutely awful! A real disappointment.
However the entertainment did improve on certain nights.
The beach was extremely busy despite being very large. We only spent one morning at Salou beach as by the afternoon people were swarming all around us. As beach lovers we spent most of our time at the neighbouring beach La Pineda which is beautiful- A ten minute bus ride away.
The hotel pool was small but clean and watched by a lifeguard. There are plenty of sunloungers available and a bar.
The Aquapolis waterpark is fantastic and definitely worth a visit, based in La Pineda, has a fantastic dolphin show.
We had a fantastic holiday, weather was great, hotel very clean and modern and had some great day trips.
However, Salou was a disappointment and we tried to spend as much time away from it as possible. We would not return.

" We got a morning flight to Salou and... "
Submitted By: Mrs L Simmons
We got a morning flight to Salou and arrived at our accommodation at 10.30am. Our rooms were not available till 12.30pm.We had to wait 2 hours with our 2 small children to check in.
Once our room was available I was disappointed to find we were on the fifth floor to say we had booked it 12 months previously. The barrier on the balcony was loose and having two small children it was unsafe.
The food at the hotel wasn’t very nice, we ate out a few times. The meat was undercooked and not a lot of choice for children. My daughter lived on ice cream for 2 weeks. I have been half board before and stayed in a sol hotel which has been excellent. This group of hotels doesn't match up to sol hotels.
The good thing about this hotel was the maid service was excellent and it was very clean. The location was good very close to bars and restaurants. I'd recommend going to the Club Tropicana bar and Jimmy’s karaoke bar for families. Some bars are dingy and dirty; I would try and avoid Idols and The Cavern.
The Rovers Return family pub I would not take kids in there after 10pm as the dj can get very arrogant and swears a lot. My children both enjoyed Salou as there are plenty of miniature funfairs etc.
I would not go back. I thought the resort was dirty and overcrowded. Sewerage had a habit of popping up in the streets out of the grates. The beaches were lovely and safe for children. Watch out for the stray cats there are plenty of them.

Submitted By: Mrs M A Green
This hotel boasts disabled rooms are available, they put my husband who has chronic walking difficulties on the sixth floor.
<br><br>
Now that in its self would not have been a problem had the lift gone to the sixth floor but the lift only goes to the fifth floor and I had to carry two suitcases and two bags up a flight of stairs that had no handrail for my husband to pull himself up on, it was pitch dark there were no lights to enable us to find our room, I ended up going back to reception to ask the desk clerk to show us which room was ours as we could not see in the dark . He helped us to eventually find the room I asked to be allocated another room and as late Sept through to Oct is the time the Spanish pensioners are sent on their hols for free by the government we did not stand a chance.
<br>
Briefly: the food was cold or luke warm, the vegs were raw. If I ever see another piece of pork I shall throw up.
<br>
Not to mention the room stank from the toilets it was damp and we shared it with lizards, my husband is slowly recovering from the hotel being on the top of a hill and the death trap doorways that you had to step up to go through and down a step to the room you were going to .this hotel is totally
<br>
Unsuitable for anyone who has any disabilities so beware you have been warned. The best part of this holiday (which we paid £839 for a week in late September) was arriving back in Birmingham, such a relief. Salou is fantastic but those of you who are reaching the golden years do your homework thoroughly because if the brochure says its in an elevated position, it means its on top of a mountain
The end Maureen and Peter Green from Walsall. <br>
