Hotel Príncipe de Asturias

The bathroom smelled of sewage, and the sheets had an unpleasant odor. There wasn't much in the room beyond a bed: no bathrobes, slippers, kettle, iron, or coffee or tea. The AC wasn't working, and when I asked about it, they gave me a basic fan. It's 2025. This was the worst hotel experience I've had in a long time, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.*

The rooms were clean and nice, a bit like a Premier Inn, and the hotel is right on the beach. I skipped breakfast, though it's served on the top floor with great views. There's managed underground parking next door for an extra cost, very close by.

The location is fantastic, across the street from the beach, on a road full of restaurants, and close to a grocery store. I was on the 7th floor in a renovated room facing the sea, with an incredible view. The furniture was updated, while the bathroom was a little older but very, very clean. As described before I booked, the room had no air conditioning. I didn't mind, but I can imagine that being a problem on hotter days. They only provide shower gel, though the water bottles and in-room fridge partly make up for it.

The beach views through the panoramic windows are amazing, and the hotel's location is its strongest point. Breakfast was good, too. Our room was bright and spacious, but fairly ordinary. We'd stayed before the renovation and expected more to have changed in the room. Service felt rather indifferent for a four-star hotel, but I'd still recommend the place for its views.
