Hovima Atlantis

The Hotel is very clean and staff are exellent, their downfall is Hovima let people from other Hovima hotels use the Pool area, it wouldnt be a problem at certain times of the year but Christmas the Pool is packed, and I mean far too crowded, there is no security who comes into the hotel at all not just to use the pool, whether you are staying in Hovima hotel and 'booked with Hovima' or renting private, no one is checked, People come to the pool from the beach if its busy and heaven knows where they are staying, in the evening people walk up to the hotel to get taxis, which means if you are staying a the hotel, you could have upto an hour wait, because it is always groups of holidaymakers plus children and prams. Hovima you need at least a room number and name before someone uses he facilities, surely this is simply safety procedure with a hotel Most Hotels have security on the door.

On arrival at the hotel at 10.30 in the morning met a check-in by a friendly receptionist who said our room was ready great start to the holiday stayed in room 657 with sea views which was another great tick in the box on arrival to our room first impressions the room was spotless staying in a studio the beds were very comfortable the shower had plenty of hot water and a great pressure also there is a bath the rooms is basic and in my opinion could do with a bit of a face lift kitchen was a little poor equipment wise but we ate out all the time so no major problems any problems we did have which was 1 light not working was fixed by an electrician within 20 minutes staff are friendly pool area and pools well kept pool side bar very nice and reasonably price location of hotel is what’s brought us to this area and it did not disappoint room just need a basic face lift and a little up date

Yes, as I said in the title, I've been in worse,but I've also been in better. I short middle of the road experience. Start at the beginning. We get dropped off a good 10 min walk from the front of the hotel and had to walk along the main road I thought It was maybe because the coach was to big to get down the road as I learned later in my holiday that wasn't the case as I saw many coaches pass the hotelanyway not the hotels fault but just a wee tip if you pick here and you have mobility problems then don't is my advice. So on to the hotel. I had emailed ahead and asked for a poll view on an upper floor and was told that the hotel was full, so I could not get my request..fair enough. The room was OK, dated but clean . Well equipped kitchen microwave cooker(that was from the flintsones) fridge..etc,bathroom was OK again dated with bath and shower ..and shower curtain..served its purpose water was warm in fact too warm at times . Beds are comfortable but in a wee nook of the apartment, and it took us a dated to find any plug points near it, but that was our fault for not looking properly. The apartment had a seated area with a T.V. which had a few English channels which was fine. The balcony was a good size with not too shabby views but never got any sun but put that down the time of the year,and overlooked the main road and entrance. Location was the best part of the hotel. You are halfway between the main town and the beach, but on quite a steep hill. Now here is my biggest gripe..the noise!!. OMG, I don't know if it was just because the people in neighbouring rooms were really loud or the walls were thin or a combination of both, but christ on bike, you heard the lot...🤨. In conclusion, reasonable apartments for the money but need updated and if you have trouble walking there clear
