We were there at 3pm and were told to wait for two hours for rooms to be ready. It was raining a lot and we were not offered an alternative but to wait pretty much in our car or go back later. We were 6 people with kids and elderly, waiting for a room for two hours in the rain and not alternative but to come back or wait in the car while it is raining heavily should not be an alternative. We left and Expedia does not want to reimburse the money we paid for a room that was not ready for us. ##### Sandra Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ken 6 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Ken Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Tamarindo-Diria-Beach-Resort.h1108151.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vibra Marco Polo II - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sant-Antoni-De-Portmany-Hotels-Hotel-Playasol-Marco-Polo-II-Adults-Only.h18586.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Sarigerme Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-TUI-BLUE-Sarigerme-Park-All-Inclusive.h1348741.Hotel-Information) > > [6 Barnaloft](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Ives-Hotels-6-Barnaloft.h39058991.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels.d178279.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Koora Hotel by Sandglass](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Aguti-Lodge-Reserve.h33594530.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Belmar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Belmar.h37178213.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Corcovado Jungle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-Casa-Corcovado-Jungle-Lodge.h19460167.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Lapas Jungle Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Villa-Lapas-Jungle-Village.h1330482.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Magic Mountain SPA & Conference center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-Magic-Mountain-SPA-Conference-Center.h1636277.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Colwyn Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colwyn-Bay-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d180354-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Cloud Forest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Monteverde-Cloud-Forest-Lodge.h2050850.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Luna Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Casa-Luna-Hotel-Spa.h2305532.Hotel-Information) > > [Poas Volcano Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vara-Blanca-Hotels-Poas-Volcano-Lodge.h5259118.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Observatory-Lodge-Spa.h11820519.Hotel-Information) > > [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Ferrara Historic Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ferrara-Historic-Centre-Hotels.d6345161.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Heliconias Nature Inn & Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penas-Blancas-Hotels-Heliconias-Nature-Lodge.h8386216.Hotel-Information) > > [Jardín del Edén Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Jardin-Del-Eden-Boutique-Hotel-Adults-Only.h2818928.Hotel-Information) > > [The Orangers Beach Resort and Bungalows - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hammamet-Hotels-The-Orangers-Beach-Resort-And-Bungalows-All-Inclusive.h984030.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kraków Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Old-Town-Krakow-Hotels.0-n6151165-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Wyndham Tamarindo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Wyndham-Tamarindo.h10356916.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [C Central Resort the Palm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-C-Central-Resort-The-Palm.h41997872.Hotel-Information) > > [El Remanso Rainforest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-El-Remanso-Lodge.h11640675.Hotel-Information) > > [Tiffanys Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Tiffanys-Hotel.h2423734.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Seattle (SEA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/sea/manchester-to-seattle) ### Activities > [Things to do in Wengen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Wengen.d6186871.Travel-Guide-Activities)
