“Great for the elderly”

This is a nice place catering to the elderly (90% of guests seem to be over 60) and families with small kids. Plenty of activities are organised to keep guests busy all day long.

This is a nice place catering to the elderly (90% of guests seem to be over 60) and families with small kids. Plenty of activities are organised to keep guests busy all day long. Rooms are OK, more in the 3-star standard in terms of comfort and amenities. Breakfast buffet is plentiful with great fruit and wide range of well-made assorted cakes and pastries. Cheese and ham are below standard. Lunch and dinner buffets are varied, but the quality is not so great. Average hotel fare, nothing to write home about. Staff are very nice and pleasant, but sometimes unable to cope with the large crowds in attendance. There are three swimming pools, two of them quite large, all of them heated (the thermal spring in the region delivers a constant flow of mineral water that is around 35 oC, almost body temperature. Constant loud up-beat music gives you the feeling there is a gym class going on all day... but the actual gym exercises in the pool only happen once a day in the morning. If you want a quiet day by the pool, bring your headphones. There is dancing every evening from 9:30 to midnight, but the song selections are controversial. There is also a bar with a very limited choice of drinks. They never heard of Port, Jerez, or Bailey's.

“renew hotel”

We loved this hotel, they have great swimming pools, outside you can find two, and another one that is new and indoor. They have a big area around the hotel, you can do go walking between a beatiful forest. The rooms are renewed. The area that need some reform is the sauna. The food are not so grea… Plus

“A mixed reaction”

Had it not been for the wonderful staff and the natural thermal water available on site I would have rated this lower. The hotel's standard is far from desirable.

Had it not been for the wonderful staff and the natural thermal water available on site I would have rated this lower. The hotel's standard is far from desirable. My rooms stank of sewage for the entire week I was there. The room had a double bed or rather two mattresses joined together and a single bed right next to it leading to a cramped space. When I asked at reception to have the single bed removed I was told that this is not possible. The breakfast is very good and is your standard Brazilian spread with very fresh and tasty fruit always at hand. This is certainly not even a 3-star establishment. It appears to be very popular with the aged who arrive by the bus loads and who love the thermal "therapy".
