Short family stay
It was very clean and like new, and the room service was great. But there was a refrigerator in the room that was not working purposely, as they said it could only be used for a cooler. There was no ice, and you can’t drink the tap water, they wanted you to buy your drinking water! Insane! Also, there was no parking, and we had to park 2 miles away from the hotel to find street parking. The beach is very nice, and more quiet then the southern part, the water is prettier also. I wouldn’t stay again, Too much of a hassle with kids.

Lots of amenities! Right across the beach, you can hear the waves from your room. There’s a spa, there’s umbrella/chairs on the beach that you can pay for, a pool (indoor and out), food within hotel and a few independent restaurants near. staff is great, food for lunch/dinner is OK in my opinion but breakfast is pretty good. Regardless, their buffet options are pretty large and can accommodate any diet (vegetarian, gluten free….)

Sólo para familias
Es un hotel viejo mucho más orientado a las vacaciones familiares por lo cual está muy grande y con mucha gente. No tiene nada memorable. El cuarto aunque amplio y limpio tenía problema de almohadas ya que sólo hay una almohada grande para la cama lo que es bastante incómodo. Camas duras. No cuentan con servicio de toallas para la playa, son con un costo extra. Desayuno suficiente para cantidad de gente que maneja el hotel pero nada especial.

Fantastic location
We decided to have a short break away from home and chose Pensicola - mainly because of being at the beach but also because of the connection to the film 'El Cid' - husband is a film geek. The facilities of the hotel were great, especially the outside swimming pool. We have a 5 and 6 year old who thoroughly enjoyed their days, I also think they entertained the other guests who were of a more mature age bracket. Everything about our break was great and would highly recommend to everyone.

Good for families/kids,but avoid full-board buffet
The location right on the Peniscola beach and the very nice pool area makes this an ideal family resort hotel, and it also seemed to offer a lot of activities for smaller children and shows every night. Our family, w 15-year daughter, were only making a one-night stop on our car ride from Alicante to Barcelona, so we did not expect to make use of any facilities. Rooms are quite standard, fairly large and tidy, with a balcony, either facing the pool area and/or the beach. Staff was OK, but never get personal in a hotel of this size. The only negative about this hotel, in our opinion, was the food. We had a very affordable price including full-board, so we made use of the included dinner, which was a buffe in the huge and not very cosy restaurant. This buffe was really a bad experience, whatever dish we tried, it did taste like... nothing. The breakfast was OK, but nothing more So enjoy sun, bath and children's activities in this hotel's pool area or on the beach just a few steps away, but avoid the full-board, ad try some of the nice restaurants nearby on the nice beach walk of Peniscola!

Habitaciones amplias y aseadas. El bufete le faltaba un poco más de variedad, aunque cabe aclarar que es un hotel para recibir gran cantidad de personas, supongo que es eso, también había algunos olores feos y fuertes por la terraza. Cuando dice vista parcialmente al mar, así es. se ve un tercio de mar desde la terraza

El hotel 4 estrellas simple, hecho para grupos de incersos y familias. No apto para los que busquen tranquilidad y relax. Preciosas vistas directas al mar, si escoges la habitación con vistas. Dejando de lado el establecimiento, el personal flojo, empezando por el departamento de reservas y atención al cliente. Había especificado tener unas extras a mi llegada, informé tanto al departamento de reservas como recepción y me informaron que ya lo habían anotado. A la llegada no había nada, tengo perfectamente los mails como prueba de ello. Personal de recepcion en el check in bien, al check out frío.
