VIK Hotel San Antonio

"We have just returned from a one week stay at the San Antonio hotel. We traveled with another couple who are friends. We arrived at the hotel at about midday and check in is not until 2pm. We were lucky as our room was ready and we got checked in straight away, our friends, not so lucky and only got checked in at 2.30. This was not a huge problem as we had some food and drinks at the pool bar. The hotel is a bit dated but the room was fine, large enough with plenty storage space and a digital safe. There is a small refrigerator in the room also. A large tv which has lots of British channels. We found the bed to be very comfy. Bathroom had a large walk in shower which maintained an even temperature when showering. Rooms are cleaned daily and towels changed as often as you want. We had room 4616, the lift was along a long corridor from reception and you had to walk up a few steps before getting to the lift. The WiFi throughout the hotel is pretty poor, but it did work so long as you can put up with it dropping out regularly. The highlight for me was the food, it was amazingly good, particularly the evening meals. To cater so well for that number of guests is a testament to how good the catering staff must be. All the staff I encountered were great. The guests during our stay varied all ages from very young to not so young. The floor we were on stayed very quiet the whole week and we never had any disturbance to wake us up. Have no fear if you’ve booked this hotel, it’s great. Especially if you appreciate quality food."

"Stayed in August with family of 4 2 rooms on 3rd floor .Rooms were clean,few cockroaches some days. Reported shower tray leaking which never got fixed so just soaked up with towels. Hotel is like going back to a 70s bond film and needs a massive renovation if it’s going to attract younger families. Food and drinks were good. Entertainment at night was the worst of any hotels I’ve ver stayed. Easy to get Sunbeds before 9am. Pool area is so dull and lifeless until they have on aqua aerobics for half an hour. No Music at all around the pool. Older barman at the pool bar was really rude all other staff were great. There was nothing for kids to do in this hotel at all apart from the pool and an old pool table and table tennis. Will not visit again with family maybe wait until I’m 70 years old if the hotel is still open"

"We travelled with my parents (who have been coming to the hotel for quite a few years now) and our little 7 month old baby. We really enjoyed our stay. Breakfast and dinner were beautiful and had plenty of choice of food to eat. Plenty of sunbeds and swimming pools were a nice temperature. We paid extra for a superior room with sea view and it was lovely. Local super markets very close to the hotel and a lovely walk every morning beside the sea. Cleaners were all very friendly and made a lovely little play area in our bedroom for our little baby. We would definitely return to the hotel!"
