Grand Ring Hotel

So after confusion with our room with love holidays. Memet from reception ( I think his name is) and the other hotel reception manager (didn’t catch his name) were nice enough to give us a free upgrade to a pool and sea view family room. Also our love holidays rep helped sort this too. All the staff were very helpful. And the man that owns the market shop downstairs was absolutely lovely, the shop is very reasonably priced. The entertainment was good for kids. The kids loved it. The love holidays tour guide was good and booked a few excursions for us. The only thing that wasn’t great was the food it was very repetitive and mostly the same thing every night but it was ok. I’d definitely stay again. Thank you for an enjoyable stay. Chelsea

Absolutely amazing stay myself and my family absolutely loved the grand ring hotel the cleanliness the staff treated you like Kings and Queens. The pool was always clean. My children absolutely loved the hotel and entertainment and have taken memories home with them. The food was really great. Lots of variation The shop in the hotel has everything and very friendly staff. I cannot fault it, we also used the spa and had an amazing time, highly recommended Thank you so much for a lovely welcoming holiday stay. We will definitely be returning.

On arrival, which was around 11pm, first impressions were good. We were greeted by a member of staff who wheeled our cases in to the hotel and to our room for us, showed us to our room and explained how the safe worked etc after reception checked us in quickly and smoothly. The daytimes at the pool with the slides were good, we didn’t struggle to find a sun lounger - despite a lot of them being reserved from early in the morning, the pool bar had a good selection of drinks, the staff were all really friendly and helpful and were constantly cleaning around the pool which included clearing any excess water from the pool which was a slip hazard. Unfortunately, for us, that’s where the good ended. Our room was not a 5 star standard which this hotel is supposed to be. Whilst I appreciate that standards are different in different countries, I’ve stayed in 3 star hotels with better rooms. The curtains weren’t clipped at the top, which on its own is nothing but there was also a hole in the wall with wires in it, we’re not sure if they were live or not and luckily we weren’t travelling with children who could easily have pulled on them. The bathroom, on first glance looked fine, but then we noticed that the pipe draining water away from the air con was running into the shower, again, not a massive issue. Except for the fact that it doesn’t look as though it’s been cleaned in a very long time and the water dripping from it pooled into the shower and didn’t drain away. The bathroom in general just didn’t feel very clean at all. Of the 5 nights we ate at the restaurant we only managed to eat a decent meal on one of those nights. The other 4 nights weren’t great, we mostly ate just chips. We aren’t fussy eaters in the slightest, but we found quite a bit of the food wasn’t labelled and we at least like to know what it is we’re eating. We were also practically pushed out of the way by other guests in the hotel who didn’t seem to have any patience or just manners in general and when we did manage to find a bit of food we liked the look of it was cold by the time we got it to our table. Luckily, the snack bar did burgers and chips at lunch time (with a bit of salad and fruit and I think there was pizza available also) so we managed to get 1 decent meal a day (we’re not massive breakfast eaters at home so can’t comment on that as we didn’t go for breakfast). I ended up buying noodles from a nearby shop to have in the evening just to make sure I’d eaten something. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel, which is a shame because on paper it has everything we were looking for. But in reality, we found that it didn’t, which is sad when you spend all year looking forward to your holiday and it doesn’t live up to expectations. And, before the hotel replies with the same comment that I’ve seen on other reviews, no where when booking did I see that this is a “low cost hotel”, nor would I have booked it if I’d have known in advance that it doesn’t live up to the sta
