4 Star Menorca Holidays

Ieuan Putnam

Was a lovely hotel, staff were incredibly friendly and always happy to help. Nice quiet location however apart from the beach nothing really around to do. There were a few setbacks for example we wish that there was more variety of food as it was great at lunch as they had different options everyday but come the breakfast and dinner, always the same stuff switching between pork steaks and chicken steaks and everything else stayed the same. That was only the real let down as we felt we were stuck eating the same stuff everyday. The other small issue is that it’s like a wasp city in the Waterpark and the pool side which was annoying but it’s nature can’t do anything about that, overall it was a lovely hotel and staff were lovely. 3/5

Fab hotel the staff are fantastic and so friendly!! Rooms nice and clean, pool area amazing always lots of sunbeds and lots of activities. Food is great would love a few more veggie options and a bit more variety, was really nice when they had specialities on like tacos and sushi, bit of a queue around 1pm for lunch and 7pm for dinner but drinks machines are everywhere which made the waiting easier! Would definitely come back!

Overall good, despite my comments below. The food was of a good standard for an all-inclusive arrangement, enough choice for all. The staff at the hotel were really friendly and helpful. We came mainly for the water park, which was great. So.ideal for a family holiday.

Accommodation was superb, staff were knowledgeable and keen to help. The entertainers gave 110% to keep it light, fun and engaging for all involved. Location was perfect with water park attached. Would recommend to families looking for everything in 1 place. Brilliant experience for us and the kids.

The waterpark was a great add on, we spent hours there every afternoon. The pool at the hotel was super crowded and then no chairs b/c people place their towels on them at 830am and leave them all day 🤦‍♀️😱. The pool was tiny for the size of the property. The property is run down and rooms are big but need lots of work. Very rusty and worn down. Water damage everywhere. The cleaning staff made beds and cleaned bathrooms but didn’t take empty drink cups or clean change out used mugs and stuff. The food was fine all the same and never enough staff at cooking stations. The water juice stations are set to overfill every cup. Half the coffee machines didn’t have coffee option. Lots of unorganized things in the restaurant area. Also would be nice if you could get snacks or food options at the waterpark not just bar drinks service. The parking lot gets super full sometimes Also a ton of walking stairs with luggage if you get premium suites Also eaten alive for the 15 min we decided to stay for mini disco… crazy with giant mosquitoes. They should have torches out or something set up to help

Possibly the prettiest little harbour I've ever visited. Lots of bars and restaurants which make the most of the scenery. The hotel is just around the corner from the cove (walk out and turn right). The hotel is peaceful as there are no children. The entertainment on the rooftop bar is fun. The rooms are generally small but cool (the air conditioning seems to work well). The balcony is tiny but welcome, we have a poolside view on the second floor and it suits us fine. If you enjoy a relaxed pace and love the sea then this is the place for you.

There are stunning views of Mahon bay from the superior sea view rooms, although views from some of the first floor are limited due to the ground floor of the hotel extending forwards, ask for a sea view room on a higher floor level if possible (4th floor best) and rooms numbered 115 to 124, 215 to 214 etc.  for best views. Rooms are compact, with an unusual bathroom layout (separate WC and shower areas, washbasin in the bedroom). Our superior sea view room had a safe, kettle and fridge, all at no extra charge. The WiFi was fast enough and didn't drop out. We found the evening meal offering  disappointing, with limited choice and food not always hot. Also there were always small flies around the buffet which was off putting; other reviewers have commented on this.  We didn't find the restaurant up to our expectations of a 4 star hotel, and have had much better at 3 star hotels. There are numerous restaurants a short walk away, if we returned we would opt for bed and breakfast. All the staff we met were friendly and efficient,  the hotel was clean, the rooms spotless. The outdoor pool is sheltered and offers sun and shade, whereas there was little shade on the rooftop area. There are small shops just off the square a couple of minutes away, and lots of restaurants and bars ariund the bay to the right of the hotel. There is a good bus service to Mahon, only €1.75 each way (cash only). There is a water taxi, €15 per person return, or €10 one way to Mahon.

Had a great time at the Barcelo Hamilton. One of the best locations for a hotel that we've stayed in. Views from balcony and rooftop are just stunning 👌🏻 On the the down side, we thought the food could have been better. Breakfast is fine but omelettes were still have cooked with the egg mixture still running out onto my plate. Next morning I asked the cook if she could let it cook longer which seemed to upset her and I got it undercooked yet again. No more omelette for me. This happened again at lunch with the pork cutlets, however I could always find something within the buffet that I could eat. Food at the pool bar is not complementary under AI until 3pm. So if you fancy a snack at 2pm you must pay or attend the buffet restaurant. Also some of the cocktails like strawberry daiquairi are not offered on All inclusive so better to ask the bar person before ordering. My final negatives are the air conditioning in our room was very poor. I asked at reception if they could check it and they agreed. However, it never got any better, so really warm at nights. Apart from these niggles it is a good hotel. If they cooked better, cooled the rooms and allowed All inclusive at all bars 10.00 to 23.00 I would give it 5 stars. At 3k for 7 nights for a couple I expected better.

The rooms are spotless and cleaned everyday by wonderful people. The food is excellent , with loads of choices. The staff are 5 star, especially Monica who took it on herself to teach me Spanish phases. The location is the best I have ever visited. Sitting drinking coffee on the sea view balcony watching the boats go past in the sunny weather is an absolute dream .

I am staying here as I write this review. The staff are ALL LOVELY. Can’t fault the location. I would strongly advise paying for the sea view. The thing that lets this hotel down so much is that on the website they make a huge thing about the hotel rooftop terrace and sea views - and rightly so. Which makes it unfathomable that the rooftop bar is never open. To get a drink in the best spot with the best views you have to wait for one of the two slowest lifts in the world to take you down 5 floors. Walk up a ramp. Walk past the ‘enclosed by the hotel’ swimming pool, up approximately 25 steps, then repeat the process to get back to the rooftop terrace. . By the time you are back you need another drink. It really is unbelievable. The rooftop bar should be open ever day. There are enough of the lovely staff to manage it. It suggests a complete lack of foresight by the rmanagement.

This is an adult only hotel, close to the airport in a very small town. Staff were friendly and helpful, great food lovely rooms and entertainment was really good too. The pool area had a lovely chilled vibe and sun beds were really comfortable. We hired a car for the day through the hotel, excellent value and delivered to the hotel on time the next day! We drove to Ciutadella beautiful town just an our away would definitely recommend this. Reason for 5 Stars, we just couldn’t fault it!

Lovely location and excellent pool area adjacent to the hotel. Staff are friendly and helpful. Our 'garden view' room had no view at all as the greenery was very tall and beyond that was a white painted wall.

We stayed here from 14 Sept - 17 Sept and I cannot fault the hotel. We experienced attentive and polite staff who were available 24/7 and always helpful. Our room was really clean upon arrival and this was maintained throughout our stay by the lovely cleaners. We had fresh towels provided to us daily and shampoo, shower gel, conditioner and handwash was also provided. There was also a hairdryer provided which was really handy. There was a good selection of food available at breakfast, lunch and dinner which we enjoyed. The only thing that we didn’t enjoy were the all inclusive cocktails in the bar, they were very strong to the point where we couldn’t drink them. The beach club opposite was gorgeous and the spa at the hotel was great. I had a massage at the spa which was very relaxing and the pool in the spa was really enjoyable. The hotel is located in a very quiet place and so we did not come across any night life - this is the perfect holiday destination if you just want to relax. We also got a 15/20 min taxi from the hotel to Mahon which has some lovely views and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful holiday. Would definitely come again.

If you want to relax and enjoy your holiday, stay away from this place, this is NOT a relaxing hotel... we leave the busy life and fly to Menorca to disconnect and relax, we expect to sleep. Long sleeps are not possible in this hotel. Rooms: This hotel has ZERO insulation between rooms. You will hear EVERYTHING happening in your neighbor rooms. We were so unlucky to be sandwiched between two couples, one with clear hearing issues and addiction to TV watching it full volume all afternoon and night till very late (we are talking 2-3AM) and then back again in the morning, the other which enjoyed an early morning love consumption with loud enjoyment noises at 6 in the morning... we basically did not sleep. When mentioned to the reception, they said the hotel was fully booked, and they were not able to do anything for us. The bathroom was smelling of sewage, and the door closers are not properly adjusted, every door is slamming all the time (come on, it's not that difficult to adjust them) Food: the breakfast buffet is quite rich, but be careful if you are allergic, the allergens indications are all messed up, you cannot trust them. Also, zero indication on what is vegetarian / vegan and what is not, you will find meat in very weird things. The hotel does not offer a microwave or a bottle opener, meaning that you can't enjoy your own food or drinks easily. Service: when we mentioned all our problems to the reception the only answer was "we are sorry", they didn't try to solve them, no discount, no offer, nothing. They know this and they are trained to don't do anything about it. Edit: looking at the front desk response to the review: this is the same answer I got to your email survey. You had your chance to do something when we highlighted all of these issues at the desk during our stay and the only answer was "we are sorry". No discount, not even a small gesture like a free drink or something. Come on be honest.

The hotel is not far from the airport. The room is clean, but the balcony does not allow smoking as well as the value is only for adults. The staff is friendly. What I really advise to do is to change the cooks, since the food is not tasty at all. It was a mistake to take all inclusive. Also, please put water in the rooms every day, it is not very good to wake up in the middle of the night and want to drink, while running down to pour yourself some water. At least put it for those who have all inclusive. I think even in 4-star hotels it is included. Those who wrote that the food is tasty, apparently they have never eaten tasty food or do not know how to cook it. There are two large swimming pools on the territory, which is very good. Hotel for young people a bit boring , since there is almost no entertainment there. But for the older generation it will be great, very quiet. I give the room 5 stars, the service too, but the food 2 stars!
