Medplaya Hotel Santa Monica

Très bon hôtel avec son emplacement exceptionnel en vu piscine et/ou mer ( l'autre côté c'est la ville et la route, pas évident).. Sinon dans l'ensemble les chambres sont très propres, service de propreté parfait.., un grand plus qu'il y a un petit frigo dans les chambres mise à disposition.. Le restaurant est très propre avec le personnel à hauteur ( seul bémol : que l'eau de "robinet" est payant).., sinon la nourriture est très variées et fraîche.. Dans l'ensemble 4 sur 5.. À recommander

Clean hotel, kind staff and helpful. Quiet. Easy to find. Stayed 3 days. Had breakfast included in our stay was lots of options of food. Nothing bad to say other than be aware no tourist transport. But that made it more fun for us. Beautiful town.

We stayed at the Hotel Santa Monica for our honeymoon in 1974 when it first opened. We returned 50 years later as part of our Golden Wedding celebrations and were so pleased we did. The hotel was so different to how we remembered it – the improvements and refurbishments over the years had bought it fully up-to-date and very comfortable. We let the hotel know in advance why we were returning, and they made us very welcome, the reception staff and management were just lovely. We had a record of which room we had stayed in first time around (on a top floor with a sea view) and asked for the same room as on our first visit ... the team were kind enough to do this, which made it extra special. More generally the hotel was lovely, restaurant and food good, and the plenty of sunbeds round the pool. Special thanks to Vicky and Minerva on reception and Juan the bar manager for making us so welcome. (Photos show our visits from 1974 and 2024!)

This is our 3rd stay at santa Monica in the last 3 years. We have stayed in the same room each time. We absolutely love Calella and this hotel is a great place to stay. The staff are friendly. There is plenty of choice at meal times , with fresh meat cooked on a hot plate at the buffet counter by a chef each evening. Entertainment is mainly Spanish , but the compares can translate into English ,especially for the Bingo each night. This hotel guests are mainly Spainish. Hotel close to stunning beaches , shops , restaurants and a train station with direct routes to Barcelona. €11.80 pp return. With love Calella and this hotel so much we have booked again for May 2025.

The location is pretty good, just a short walk from the beach, and the town is within walking distance. There's a road train which stops right outside of you want, we took it out but had a slow walk back. It isn't far. Take a kettle, we didn't this time, but you can rent them out for your stay from the reception team who were clear, welcoming and helpful. We didn't upgrade to the seaview rooms, but probably will if we return. Our view was a bit of void land but we were able to get a vibe of the town that way, and we kept a look out for the cats that were regulars there. The food was great, plenty of options for me and the wife. All very fresh. All the people working the kitchens and dining area were exceptional and personable, too many to name - except for the robot, who we named Ricardo (or Ricky after we had a few wines). It was very clean, the cleaners tidied the beds and bathroom of the room daily, and well. The main hotel was also very clean. The bar workers were fun guys. They handle two sides of a bar that cannot see the other, and I heard knocking tapping and whistling, which would have annoyed me greatly if I were working there. Tania literally never stops: setting up, preparing lemon slices, cleaning, serving drinks all go. Evening music does need more variety. I would have liked to have been DJ! Thanks for the stay, we had a great time.

No daytime animation. Limited entertainment on a night! Generous portions of drinks served on AI package. Nice pool area. Good snacks available at bar. Better entertainment needed! Eg; multi cultural singers on a night quicker transitions between events? ( 20 mins waiting for something to happen!)
