Our hotel, like many other Thomas Cook holiday makers was changed the day before departure from the 4* California Palace and downgraded to this god awful place. Having read the reviews we assumed people were making a fuss over nothing, how wrong we were! I really have... more

After reading the reviews i was in two minds as to whether the hotel would be ok or not. We actually stopped in the apartments which are across a busy road from the hotel. The pool and entertainment (if you can call it that was based in the hotel). Well, where do i start?... more

This was my 3rd visit to Salou in 4 yrs and the 3rd 3* hotel I have stayed in, and definately the best so far! Comparing with the other two hotels (H10 Delfin Park & Jaime I), the food was excellent for the half board we had paid for, we ate in the hotel every day, and on... more

Very Nice Hotel
Just returned from 2 week stay. I thought it was a lovely hotel.I read reports of noise from disco but our balcony was facing the door and the noise was minimal.I was concerned about some reviews I read about the food, but I found that if there was not something to please you you must be a very fussy person.The choice was excellent and you can help yourself to as much or as little as you wish. I also read reports of the staff being surly but if you engage them in conversation they are very nice people. I would recommend this hotel more for... more
loved the california garden
We stayed at this hotel for a week in May. We really enjoyed our stay The bedrooms were very clean and we had a good sized balcony overlooking the pool area. Towels were changed every day and the room tidied. We found the buffet breakfast and evening meal excellent and had a good choice of food. It was very central and quiet during the day and night . It seemed to have good facilities for the eldery and handicapped, we found the staff helpful. We will definitely return more
bit doubtful about staffs honesty
enjoyed the majority of our holiday in this hotel until the second last day when 50 euros went missing from our suitcase in our room. the staff on reception were unhelpful to say the least and insisted that the domestic staff would not have taken it. the manager who was in the other apartment block didn,t even have the courtesy to come and see me when i complained at reception, after they telephoned him. this put a dampener on our holiday and for this reason we will not return and would advise others against going to this property. more
Great Hotel
Myself my mum and my little brother stayed at this hotel for a week in June. I cant understand why people are moaning about this hotel, I really cannot fault it. The room was more than adequate, it was clean and we had plenty of towels and our beds changed reguarly. The bar was cool clean and modern, the waiter service was great no need to go up to the bar yourself either in the bar our outside watching the entertainment. The entertainment was different every night it was great for the kids and they were able to get really involved.<br... more
Good Food,Good Cleaners,Loud Nightcub next door until 4-5 am
We were put in this Hotel when we were booted out of our chosen hotel because we weren't booked by the holiday company (UKtravelshop) despite my constant phone calls to get a confirmation. This hotel is a nice hotel clean pools and pool area, rooms were clean (a little dated) TV 2 english channels that sometimes worked.Food was good and plentiful if a little unimaginative.Desserts were mostly cake- based with a blancmange or caramel type dish, ice cream was available but we didnt find that out until the last night because being mostly... more
Loved the California Garden Hotel
We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel, especially after reading all the bad reports before going. O.K the rooms are small for 2 adults and 2 children, but at the end of the day all the room is for is to sleep at night. Rooms were kept very clean, cleaner came in every day, changed towels etc. Great selection of food breakfast and evening, my husband is a fussy eater and he managed to find something to suit every meal time. Kids entertainment is great kept them happy all the time, the evening entertainment isn't the best i've ever... more
Didn't like the California Gardens
I have been to salou last year and really liked the location as there is so much to do for kids. This year I opted to go the hotel route, booking the California Gardens, we arrrived in end of July. three adults and one child. The lobby is impressive and the air con if refreshing as you walk through the door. We picked up our key eager to go look at our room. When we opened the door we could not belive our eyes, there were four beds squashed into the room, there was no space for our luggage, or storage, we had to cross over the bed to go... more
Worst food ever tasted
On arrival at the hotel I was pleases with how clean the hotel was and the staff were extremely friendly. however, i soon realised after our first meal in the restaurant that thinks could only get better. The room was ok but there was limited space and i was glad that only two people were in the room. The shower was the worst i have ever experienced and believe me if you are a girl with long hair leave plenty of time to rinse out those soap suds with the drip of water that comes out of the shower. The pool was a good size and was... more
Hated California Gardens hotel
Promised adjoing rooms did not happen. Room very smelly to extent I was sick - problem with toilet reported this on several occasions and nothing done about it. All the entertainment which was promised did not appear. Certain days no entertainment for children at all. Not very friendly to people from Northern Ireland food just edible not very nice. more
All-round great holiday!
We've just returned from a two week stay at the California Gardens Hotel in Salou. Before going we (young couple) read the reviews about this hotel on various review websites and were nervous about the hotel, especially the food. However, when we arrived at the hotel we were surprised at the quality of the hotel. We checked in swiftly and proceeded up to the room, which was of a high hygienic standard, however a little small. The food was generally of a high standard with numerous dishes to choose from. Overall we were impressed... more
