“Salou in October is perfect”

Brilliant from the moment we arrived until we checked out. Staff are always friendly and willing to help. Great location in Salou. 15 mins (max) from the airport and pleased to be first drop off.

Brilliant from the moment we arrived until we checked out. Staff are always friendly and willing to help. Great location in Salou. 15 mins (max) from the airport and pleased to be first drop off. The food was nice. I just don't eat much fish, and I understand when visiting Spain that they do. Therefore, meat and veg options are limited. All food was of very good quality, including the lunch-time bar menu. The drinks were reasonably priced. It's a great Adults-Only hotel now. I understand they used to welcome young children, but that is no longer the case. My mother, who is a return visitor, confirms it's better that there are no kids running about. Plenty of loungers with no craziness with sunbed reservations as pool accessible from 9am. Daytime activities were varied and enjoyable. Special shout out to Yamile, who gave extra care and consideration to my 80 year old parents who wanted to partake in the games. Lots of seating to enable everyone to enjoy the entertainment or play cards or simply to sit and read. Our room was immaculate every day when we returned and are thankful for their attention to detail. This hotel attracts lovely guests too. I commented on how bice the other guests were. Friendly and happy to talk. We will certainly be back.

“Lovely hotel, good location, decent food.”

Visited Salou in June last year for three nights. Never really had a poor experience visiting Spain and this continues that trend. Clean hotel, food facilities, reasonably priced food and drinks alongside attentive, friendly staff. The hotel was nicely located, near to restaurants, bars and the beach. Would happily return, hopefully for longer next time.

“Very Disappointed ”

The queues were the biggest turn off for us. You queue to go into the dining room Then you queue for food, this is the worst queue. The counter is just one sided.

The queues were the biggest turn off for us. You queue to go into the dining room Then you queue for food, this is the worst queue. The counter is just one sided. Queuing so long at different places for items of food meant that by the time you got a few food items they were cold when we got back to the table. It was awful Breakfast was poor, because there was insufficient food put out..no bread for toast, cereal containers empty. Hot food items very sparse, we weren't late , this was at 9am. Basic items like egg cups not available. Quality and choice of food was poor at evening meals, and the queues were cruel. Long queues to get in then you have to queue to get out, madness ! Dress code didn't exist for dinner, many men in vests and beach shorts. Worse dressed men I have ever seen allowed in a 4* dining room. I couldn't recommend this hotel. Room very basic for the extra we paid to upgrade to a deluxe room. Confused to see the glass bathroom door - with no locking device? Staff behind the bar always pleasant, but larger was always flat. Location of hotel is good. We enjoyed a few drinks in Harry Potter's bar next door, and a fun quiz with Anthea there in the evenings. We will return to Salou, it's a lovely resort, but we will won't return to the Vintage Hotel.
