Hotel Linda

"FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY! Well i have to say. The Staff is what makes this place REALLY special. We are really sad to be going home, but cannot wait to return, once the renovations are complete. This review is for Alberto who is always smiling and happy and Jesus, who was so helpful in sorting out the little issues we had. If you want the personal touch, then you cannot fault the Linda Hotel! We will definitely be coming back!"

"After reading reviews on this hotel regarding the decor, I will agree the hotel is dated, but it's ok. Yes, the hotel needs modernising, but the main thing in our opinion is that it's clean. The maids I will say are amongst the best I have ever seen. They are polite and do an amazing job with the rooms. The staff are helpful and friendly. We stayed half board for a week, the food is of good quality and plentiful. The breakfasts are excellent. My only niggle in the restaurant is the staff start to clear the buffet a bit too early for the stated 9pm finish, this caused frustration to us and a few other guests. So if dining after 8.15pm, be mindful that they start clearing the food away around 8.40/5. There's a bar but no entertainment. However, a pool table is available at 2 euro per game. I really wanted to give a 5 star review as the food and staff are really good, but during a full week, only one lift was working that can only take two people at a time. Also, we were up and down on the waiting list for a fridge for the room. One day, we were next in the list then we slid back down to number four. Maybe a fridge should be reserved in advance before we arrived. Now.....one for the aviation geeks (avgeeks). The best rooms for aircraft views are from rooms 524, 526 and 528. Rooms 424, 426 and 428 are also good but no lower floors. We asked for an aircraft view room and was given 431. It's good, but you will need a 500mm+ lens. You can see the landing runway but will need flight tracking apps/software. Anyway, back on topic .......personally, for the price, it's good. Helpful and friendly staff, good food, pool is ok, bar is ok, the rooms are dated but they are really clean, the location is good just a 10 minute walk and you're on the beach, the bus stop is right outside for busses to Palma/Arenal/airport. Five minute bus ride to the airport at 5 euros per person. There is also a really good supermarket just 2/3 minutes walk away. Would we stay here again? Yes, of course we would."

"We booked Linda Hotel through Agoda. While we understand the initial issue was caused by Agoda not sending the confirmation to the hotel, the way the situation was handled left us very disappointed. On arrival, the receptionist Alberto was helpful, secured us a room for the night, and assured us the problem would be resolved the next day. However, the following day another receptionist (with beard, glasses and tattoos) told us the hotel was fully booked and asked us to leave. He refused to contact Agoda on our behalf and insisted that we handle it ourselves, despite the promise made the previous evening. As a result, we had to find another hotel at the last minute, which caused us unnecessary stress and extra expenses. We are very unhappy with the way we were treated and cannot recommend this experience."
