Hotel Barceló di Almeria

We had appointments in the city so spent the night at this hotel. Staff were friendly and efficient, room spacious and spotless, the bed comfortable and the evening meal good. As is often the case the hot items at breakfast were on the cold side. Very good for anyone who does not want to drive righ down town.

Stayed here for 2 nights (should have been 4 but after the first night decided to return home early yesterday). Food was very disappointed in the both the buffet restaurant and the pool bar/tapas bar. A lot of the food in the buffet restaurant was cold, both in the evening and at breakfast. Very little choice for children. Very expensive (190 euros for 3 adults and 1 child). We ate in the Tapas bar in the second evening. Service okay and we got by with our limited Spanish! We were still waiting for our son’s food after we had finished eating. When it finally arrived ,he ordered a rack of ribs which consisted of 4 ribs and some chips. Not a vegetable or salad in sight (although think I was more bothered by that than him!) Live entertainment outside both evenings but for those with young children, it goes on until 11.30 so may not be ideal. It is in a very Spanish area with very little to do or visit outside of the hotel. Some cafes which are very well served by the Spanish locals. Beach location is great and you can walk along the beachfront for quite a way. Rooms are lovely and spacious although air conditioning didn’t work in the children’s room. My daughter left her shorts around the pool area although when we asked on departure they hadn’t been handed in. However, whilst we were waiting to depart at the airport we had a phone call from the hotel to say they had found them and would bring them to the airport. We were grateful to them for this.

Being located at the prime location, this hotel offers easy access to shopping, downtown, and nearby monuments nearby. Enjoyed my 1 week stay at AC Hotel Almeria, Rooms are bit smaller yet, no compromise on comfort level. I enjoyed had a walk around the corner every evening, because everything is just few mins walking distance. I personally loved the town Almeria exploring maximum by walk and reaching locals, this hotel took care of my stay comfortable. There are some rooms were have to reach over stairs, which I had struggled during check-in & check-out carrying a heavy baggage. Perhaps, the hotel staff can consider allot rooms based on customers carrying a heavy luggage, it’s bit challenging to carry them over stairs (only specific rooms on each floor). Rest everything else worth a 4* rating!

El departamento es correcto para muy corto periodo. Nosotros nos quedamos solo una noche. Living comedor y cocina integrados. Habitacion de tamaño correcto, buen tamaño de placard.Lo mas raro, si bien lo habia leido en comentarios, es que la puerta del baño es la misma que la puerta de la habitacion al living (ver en fotos). Si decidis cerrarte la puerta hacia el baño el que esta en el living puede ver tu figura dentro de él. A su vez la ducha es otra puerta y esta al lado de la cama.No lo recomiendo para mas de dos personas. El colchon mas o menos. La calle silenciosa para dormir. Buen abrigo de cama. El sillon del living, regular. La TV basica. Mesa para comer, hasta 4 personas, muy comoda. La cocina muy linda, tenia heladera, cocina/estufa, buena mesada, lastima que le faltaban basicos como hervidora electrica y tostadora. En el baño habia secador de pelo, y toallas suficientes para los dos. El departamento muy limpio. CheckIn y CheckOut independiente, con codigos, esta buenisimo para no tener que ser puntuales en horario de llegada y partida. El edificio esta muy bien, tiene ascensor. Parking como a 300 metros, incomodo. Pero entiendo que las calles son muy angostas y no habria otra posibilidad. El dia, 13 euros. La ubicacion, solo ok. Se puede llegar caminando al centro, como a 10 minutos. Valoro mucho que admitan mascotas, es muy importante que todos seamos respetuosos y cuidadosos cuando llevamos asi nos siguen dando la oportunidad de viajar con ellas :)

We stayed at Hotel Nuevo Torreluz for 5 nights in September and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We stayed in a standard double room with breakfast included. Firstly, the location is fantastic if you are planning to explore the city on foot. It is located a 2-3 minute walk from one of the main street. There is a Carrefour Marketplace approx. 5 minute walk away. Key sites such as the cathedral, plaza de la constitution, civil war shelters and the casa del poeta are reachable within 5-10 minutes of walking. The tourist information centre is also nearby and is a helpful place to stop by at beginning of your visit to pick up a map. On arrival we were welcomed by the concierge who was friendly and helpful. The main room was basic but functional, there is a large wardrobe, table & chair, desk as well as a mini fridge and safe. There was no extra charge to use the safe which was a bonus. The bathroom was modern and clean. Overall, the room meet our needs well. Breakfast was continental, with guests serving themselves. There was a variety of options available from cereal, fresh fruit, yoghurt, cakes to cold meats, bread and bacon, sausage & eggs. Hot drinks were available as well as fresh orange juice and water. We did not eat at the on-site restaurant (Taberna Nuevo Torreluz), instead we chose to eat out at various restaurants in the city. If you are looking for a good ice cream I'd recommend going to Alpino's, they had a great variety of flavours available and the scoop sizes were great. The beach was a 30 to 35 minute walk away, however, there is also a bus that leaves from the main street regularly. The beach is a mix of pebbles and sand. If travelling from the airport you can either get a bus and walk approx 10-15 minutes to hotel or get a 15 minute taxi. Overall, if you're looking for a good quality, clean and welcoming hotel in the centre of Almeria I would recommend staying here.

Loved my time at this hotel. The location couldn't be more perfect for my needs. I loved swimming in the pool which never got that crowded and sometimes I was the only one so had it to myself. It was interesting watching the ferries in the port across the road from the room balcony. The beach wasn't far to walk maybe 10 minutes along the promenade and I had a great time jumping the waves. The little tourist train stop is nearby which takes you all around town and by the castle. The bridge attraction, park squares, art museum, restaurants and shops are all on the doorstep. The hotel staff are very friendly, helpful and efficient and helped me with some scanning. You can hire a kettle and iron for your stay. The buffet breakfast is nice and has all your usual items, you can have your eggs made to order. They also have snacks and icecreams you can have in the bar all day. I loved my room it was calm and peaceful on the 6th floor. I had the best sleep and didn't wake in the night , better than at home. The beds are comfortable. There is air con in the room so it was nice to come back to for a little siesta. The rooms are big and the beds. There is a big cupboard and a few drawers for your things. The bathroom was nice with a bath, shower and some useful toiletries. The hotel had a nice atmosphere and I am looking forward already to coming back next year !

Buena ubicación para el objetivo de nuestra visita (visitar a familiar). Algo alejado del mar. Atención correcta. Buena relación precio/servicio. Adjunto hay un restaurante relacionado con el hotel. ¡Atención! se trata de un restaurante-gourmet para ciertos gustos o costumbres o presupuestos. No es nuestro caso: Nos encontramos con porciones ridículamente pequeñas y carísimos. Mucho más satisfactoria resultó una pizzería internacional en la cercanía. Con todo cumplió con nuestras expectativas y necesidades del momento. Sí, volveríamos a alojarnos allí.

I cannot understand the bad reviews. We had an excellent experience here. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The location is very good at the city centre and close to the attractions. We had chosen a spa package, which is highly recommendable and included chocolates and prosecco. The spa experience was amazing, which we have also reviewed separately in more detail. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. When we arrived early at 12, they let ut stay on the rooftop pool all day until our room was ready. Great customer service! And when I forgot my Spanish abanico at the hotel, they found it for me, and kept it for a week until I returned to pick it up. A special thank you for your help and honesty! Breakfast was good and the views were stunning from the rooftop to the Alcazaba. Very luxurious. They even opened the breakfast serving 15 minutes earlier than usual, so we had the chance to enjoy the breakfast and still catch our early morning bus. Just a perfect stay here. No puedo entender las malas críticas. Tuvimos una excelente experiencia aquí. La habitación estaba limpia y muy bien decorada. La ubicación es muy buena en el centro de la ciudad y cerca de las atracciones. Habíamos elegido un paquete de spa, que es muy recomendable e incluía chocolates y prosecco. La experiencia de hammam fue increíble, que también hemos analizado por separado con más detalle. El personal fue extremadamente amable y servicial. Cuando llegamos temprano a las 12, nos dejaron quedarnos en la piscina todo el día hasta que nuestra habitación estuvo lista. ¡Excelente servicio al cliente! El personal fue extremadamente amable y servicial. Cuando olvidé mi abanico en el hotel, me lo buscaron y lo guardaron durante una semana hasta que volví a recogerlo. ¡Muchas gracias por su ayuda y honestidad! El desayuno era bueno con las vistas impresionantes de la Alcazaba. Muy lujo. Incluso abrieron el servicio de desayuno 15 minutos antes de lo habitual temprano por la mañana, y gracias a eso tuvimos la oportunidad de disfrutar del desayuno antes que nuestro autobús sale. Simplemente una estancia perfecta aquí.

After spending 3 days in the local Government hospital my wife & I stayed here for 2 weeks before we were repatriated back to the UK. Excellent hotel in a lovely area with amazing staff who were very attentive professional & extremely helpful - the manager was very supportive. The hotel is situated just outside the city centre but only a short walk away. Very near the hospital & a large shopping mall. The food was very good especially the breakfasts with a variety of choices on offer. Very near to a host of good restaurants/tapas bars which serve excellent & great value for money food. I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a city break at a most reasonable price.
