Alize Hotel

Just returned after two weeks in the hotel. We upgraded to a stone room. The room was small and not a lot of storage. Unfortunatley we thought the cleaning was a bare minimum. Food in the hotel was very basic not a lot of choice. We ate out most evenings. The pool area was clean and very scenic suroundings. The bar was by the pool and again very basic. The guy who met us at the hotel was the luggage man. He was a credit to the hote. Always a smile, always very helpful. Overall it is a budget hotel. The manager was a verykind helpful man, always walking around checking on things. With respect ot is a 3 star hotel. Cheap and cheerful.

Great week here, food was great and very fresh, loads of salads and with a different theme every night of the week. Rooms were a little dated and wifi was not very good in our block, but you could get it elsewhere in the complex. What made it for us were the staff, always happy and could not do enough for you. Will definitely come back.

Booked as a last minute week in the sun for £900. Arrived early hours to be shown room 512, above reception. Rooms above 500 are in this area, and the noise from a generator means that one can't sit on the balcony.

Aircon old and wheezy, but does work after a while. Floor and bathroom dusty and dirty, had to pay for safe, and curtains screwed together so they cannot stay open. I asked to move and was shown a double room in one of the other buildings, but this was so small and dark that I chose to stay in the larger room.

Meals poor, breakfast of eggs, cold meats and cheese. Lunch and dinner dishes often cold and little choice. Salads are nicely presented, but difficult to make a meal up. Empty buffet options are slow to be refilled, and often lukewarm. Can only get juice , water and tea/coffee in the restaurant, and glasses are dirty. Have to get drinks from the bar and bring with you.

Drinks also poor, all inclusive selection is very limited and poor quality. Watching a gin and tonic be poured I expected it to be super strength , but couldn't taste the gin. Same situation with vodka and whisky, so either poor quality or watered. Beer OK.

The pool area is quite pretty and no problem getting sunloungers. Location very good, right at the top of the strip. Staff fairly friendly and helpful, but it seems to be run on about half the staff required, for example the Life Guard also doubled up as a barman. This may explain the problems of poor quality food and drink and substandard cleaning. Snack bar restaurant and common areas very dated

I left 3 days early, and would not return. Save your money and go elsewhere.
