Submitted By: ronniet
The Calypso Hotel was closed has undergone a complete refurb at the start of 2008 and it has been a huge improvement and is part of the Sevigroup on of the best chains in Spain.
The rooms now have a new air con system,fridge, and 22'flat screen televisions with English channels. Some of the rooms are in the front of the hoteland can be noisey,the rooms in the annex are slighty larger. The dinningroom has also improved with a brand new buffet counter.The service in the here is really first class with tables being cleared instantly and no waiting for tables.The food is also very good with lots of choice and warm, the is also show cooking,and a huge salad bar.
The location of the hotel cannot be faulted with a 6 minute walk to the beach,10 minute walk to the large Sunday and Wednesday market,and a 5 minutewalk to the main entertainment street,the oldtown is a half hourwalk or the localbus stopis also handy.
The entertainment in the hotel itself is geared towards the older guest, but all hotel entertainment in Benidorm is usually poor as they cannot compete with what is on offer around the bars in the resort.
The only downside of this hotel that it is not really geared towards kids with no kids clubs or entertainers. Would I recommend it YES would I return YES.

" We booked a holiday in this hotel in... "
Submitted By: Mrs C A Hunter
We booked a holiday in this hotel in June of this year 2006, for 17th October only to have this cancelled 2 days before we were due to fly because they said the hotel had been overbooked!
We had tried to cancel the holiday ourselves 4 weeks previously due to the death of my father but was told that we would only receive 10per cent refund.
Now has the hotel overbooked or is Airtours resold our reservations for a higher price? We would not consider this hotel again or Airtours incase this happens again! Beware!

" This hotel is good but is let down by... "
Submitted By: Mr R Scott
This hotel is good but is let down by a poor dining room. The rooms are neat and well kept but smaller than usual for Benidorm. The public rooms are also clean and tidy with helpful staff in all areas. However this hotel is only on a full board basis and it does get boring.
<br><br>
The buffet in the dining room is small and cramped and is not self service except at breakfast. This leads to a wait to get in the dinning room at busy times. The choice when you do get in although good for both salads and sweets is poor for the hot food. The tables are also set close together will little room between them with the food not always as warm as it should be.
<br><br>
If you get a first floor room at the front of the hotel facing the outdoor waterfall bring plenty of mossie repellent as several people in these rooms report a number of bites. Would I recommend this hotel? YES but only when they update the dining room. <br>

When ever we came in they would always say hello or when we went out they all ways said goodbye, at one time we were locked out of our room at 3 o’clock in the morning and they kindly came up with a spare one for us.
<br><br>
We was going to ask them but we thought it was a bit late but they came anyway which me and my family liked about them they were so kind to us.
