10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful stay for us and our friends who all booked other rooms in the same hotel as we were visiting for a wedding. It is a bit further from the center of the city so we had to use a vehicle to get there. We found a nice walk/bike/run trail that starts near the hotel and goes towards nearby parks! The gym was super convenient to use. The breakfast was fantastic. Luggage storage came in handy and was smooth after we checked out so that we could explore nearby before our departure.

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful hotel. One of the best I’ve stayed in, in Europe. Think I got an upgrade, stayed on 11th floor, room was massive with stand alone bath, and seperate shower. Mini bar, coffee machine, kettle, complimentary water, and apples in the hall. Only had breakfast one day as had to leave early on second morning, due to Storm Ingrid. But breakfast was great, buffet with huge selection of hot & cold items. Definitely a 5 star hotel
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Overall, a good and comfortable hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Rated four stars because I thought they were a bit miserly with the coffee, one little packet per room despite dual occupancy. WiFi connection is great, the place is clean, drinks prices are fair, the pool and gym area are excellent.

Extremely dirty blinds in the room which are white so obvious to see the stains. Had to ask for them to be removed which they did. Room was basic. Lukewarm water for showers all of the 4 night stay despite asking for the issue to be resolved on two occasions. Nice lobby and a decent breakfast.

10/10 Exceptional

Together with my wife, I stayed a week in this hotel. It was a pleasure for us, the staff was amazing, the room was cleaned every day, at breakfast you had plenty to choose from, and the food at the restaurant was perfect. The only thing I consider negative is the price of 25 euros per day for a dog or a cat.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Staff were super pleasant and professional and, bar a wonky wall mounted rack in the bathroom that meant we had to put our soap on the floor, the room was clean and well kept. Air conditioning temperature is locked at 19 degrees centigrade as the lowest temperature possible. Not ideal for everyone especially as hot as it was. Overall, totally enjoyed the stay and would chose the Melia again at the drop of a hat.

4/10 Fair

Too busy to cope with guests.

Only 1 or 2 Reception staff at one time over the 3 days. Average wait to deal with any issues 20 mins. The hotel was full and only 2 of 3 lifts working to cover 11 floors . Average wait 5-7 mins. Multiple issues in room: TV had to be reconfigured, Telephone not working, bathroom face mirror had to be fixed, water leaking from bathroom tray. Spa and swimming pool are very busy as external visitors in large numbers on hot days. Breakfast was very good with big variety.
