An oasis in the city

Excellent hotel - a tranquil oasis in the city. Pleasant environment with friendly and helpful staff. The '1890' restaurant was the only disappointment - merely adequate and less refined than the rest of the hotel.

The public spaces were lovely and the staff friendly, efficient and helpful. Breakfast had plenty of choice and the quality was good. Served on a pretty terrace made for an enjoyable experience. The bedroom and bathroom were extremely attractive but lighting was a little confusing and the room was a tad on the dark side. Our balcony which was supposed to have garden views looked out onto other bedrooms opposite and they were very close. Because of this there was very little sun or privacy.

The only thing we could fault is that there is policy on guests reserving sunbeds with a towel very early in the morning, so you often can't get a sunbed in the sun which is part of the reason we were drawn to the hotel, for the pool area, which is lovely.

The hotel has an older charm but is absolutely up-to-date with amenities and style. It is spotlessly clean everywhere. All staff in every area are knowledgeable, helpful, respectful and very friendly. The only surprise we found was the extra charge to use the rooftop pool area and a bed charge for the wellness pool area. This did not spoil our stay, however. We stayed half board and the food in the restaurant was fabulous. A great choice, well cooked and beautifully presented. The staff in this restaurant were particularly friendly and accommodating (I am ceoliac, so have to be careful). Breakfast choice is vast and I was so pleased to see extra items for gluten free guests. We really did have a lovely time and would most certainly return to the Santa Catalina!
