El hotel está bien. Cerquita de la playa aunque alejado de zonas comerciales y ocio. Las habitaciones pequeñas pero limpias y acogedoras. Buffet normal.

Better than expected

7.19/10

Just back after a 7 night stay in a superior room. Did not expect it to be as good for a 3 star hotel but it was very clean, meals a bit repetitive but plenty of choice for everyone, staff were cheerful and helpful. Only problem was 1 person working behind bar in entertainment room which we never went in after second night. We will definitely be back.

Love this Hotel.

8.75/10

We have stayed at Alba Beach. Formerly known as Balmoral many times. From check in to check out everything is so easy. This hotel is such a welcoming place to stay and the staff are all excellent. What we love about this hotel is the same staff are working here since we first started coming here. The location is great a short distance from the beach front with bars and restaurants nearby. The hotel is spotless clean. The staff are all excellent. Over all this hotel is great value for money.
