The hotel was bright and spacious, but as I was basically using it as a place to sleep, I did not avail myself of too many of its facilities. On the down side, we had four very noisy and inconsiderate women in two rooms close by ours. The two young children in the room next to us (about 4 and six years old) were as quiet as 'a dormouse'.

I would like to thank you for staying with us and giving us your trust. We work to please our guests and your opinions are what always help us to improve. I am sorry for the inconvenience caused but our hotel. Samba is a large hotel, 434 rooms so there are a lot of customers and not everyone knows how to respect the other customers. We have a security service throughout the night and as soon as an incident is detected measures are taken. We hope to welcome you again at Samba Hotels very soon.

Great hotel
I have stayed at the samba many times the hotel is always clean and tidy with a helpful reception and night security. This time I stayed with a friend we had 2 rooms next to each other on the top floor over looking the pool we had great views off lloret it's self and could even see the sea This hotel is a 2 star if you want a great hotel pay the extra if you want a bed for the night and to get out enjoy your holiday the samba is great a shirt walk in to town or fenals loads off pubs food places. Only down side a hill both sides to walk up

Standard Lloret hotel.
The room was pretty much the same as every other hotel we've stayed at in Lloret, and I've been quite a few times. We checked in late and it took about 5 minutes. It was quick and the staff were all lovely. Our room was a bit old and dated, but it was clean and very comfortable. To be honest it was much more pleasant than I was expecting from previous reviews. It looks like they've started doing some work as well. I'll definitely be back.

Terrible
Please do not stay here. 22 of us stayed for a 50 th birthday party fully inclusive. The rooms were dirty, the food and drink was just awful and the staff were very unhelpful. This definitely was not a 3 star hotel more of a 1 star or below !!! Most of the rooms that we had had doors that wouldnt lock and the smell of decomposing rubbish on the balconies was truly terrible. The tvs in the rooms were from the 1960 s and in one room we had there were white marks over the top cover on the bed. We stayed one night ( out of a 3 night break) and moved to another hotel. Please do not stay here.

Terrible, old hotel, lobby looks ok but the rooms are absolutely terrible!
Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your comments. We are sorry to hear that. Our hotel may be old as it was founded in 1972, so one of the firsts to start in the region, but we would like you to know that we have different types of rooms in our hotel. Some of them are renewed and some are not, which are cheaper and let our guests afford it. Whatever the case, what is for sure is that your experience will be more remarkable if possible for our team' service. We recommend you to choose another room next time and let yourself go with fun.

A run down hotel.
A poor hotel, luckily I was only staying for 3 nights. It was full of loud teenagers which would be expected for lloret. On a plus side the staff were nice even though they messed up my booking and return transfer, had to basically beg the driver to let me on the coach.

Location on the hill between Lloret and Fanals
The Hotel is old and it looks very tired. It needs a complete revamp. Rooms have no wifi unless you pay 9 euros for very iffy connection. They are dirty, we had to ask reception to send someone to clean the floor and balcony when we arrived. The decor could be 30 years old and looks it. No air con. We only had breakfast but the quality was very poor.

OK for 3 star accommodation, but very noisy!
On arrival, I was pleased to get a room with a balcony that overlooked the pool. However, the evening entertainment took place outside just below our room on 2 of the 4 nights of our stay, so sleep wasn't an option until it finished!

Soccer in Spain
Overall good. Most of my time was spent in Barcelona so a little far away for my needs at the time. Very convenient to the beach. Good restaurants close by. Bar closed a little early. The group I traveled with would have liked a place for the parents to socialize after the soccer players had gone to bed.

Great hotel near the lloret del mar beach
The rooms are basic but clean. The best part of the hotel is that it is very near to the beach area and there is a beacth pathway that is very accessible from the hotel. We spent most of our time at the beach so for us it was ideal. The pool area is usually quite busy but for us the real value was to be near to the beach. There are plenty of places near the hotel to eat and drink. Overall, comfortable and good value for money.

The hotel is ok. We were on the 6th floor which is a bit old fashioned, but the views are very good. The people in our room next door had parties a few nights and the noise was quite loud before they went out and when they came back in. The hotel was full of 16 -18 year olds partying. The breakfast on the other hand was good, and rooms were very clean. The pool was good but get there before 11am or you won't get a seat. The location is good as the hotel is close to Lorret de mar beach and town and also close to Fennals beach which is not quite as busy as the main beach. We had no air con, even though when we booked it was advertised. Only 1 english speaking channel on the tv which went off by the 2nd night! Supermarket is straight across the road which is good for juices water etc. Overall the hotel is ok, don't expect anything too fancy, and be prepared for a lot of young loud teenagers!

Not as bad as others said
This venue was chosen for me as an older guest on a stag weekend. I book a single room, read the reviews here and expected the worst. In reality this hotel offers excellent value for money. My room had been refurbished in the last few years, and was clean and tidy, whilst a little small. It was well cleaned each day. The interior of the hotel is good, its clean, bright and tidy, and there seemed to be plenty of entertainment. The exterior is a little tatty, but nothing a coat of paint would not solve. The pool was clean, with good grass areas to sit and plenty of free sun beds. The pool bar was excellent. I found all staff polite and helpful. We were not on the all inclusive, so found the bar service excellent, althought the "all inclusive" queue was always long. We also did not use the restaurant. The average age of the guests was less than 20 and I understand they were making a bit of noise late at night, but I was not affected by this. Overall this hotel offers excellent value for money particularly for large groups. And is far better than most of these reviews seem to suggest.

Penthouse nostalgia
The hotel is nicely situated with walking distance to the center and beach. I was put in a penthourse suite, which was a very nice room with a huge balcony - like huge! I could host a party of 30 people dancing outside if I wanted that was very nice. The rooms were old but fine and clean. No refrigerator, but there were soaps, shampoo and towels supplied and even a bidet in the toilet. The hotel it selv if old and worndown with rust serveral places. The gym is a joke and would even require 4 euros for use per day, so no thank you. The breakfast buffet was above average with fresh bread. I got the halfboard which included free evening meals and most of the buffet food was not to my liking but there would always be one dish which was really nice like grill-roasted pig and for a ridicolously low price so I would always go for that just to have the option.
