Find 4 Star Hotels in El Pinillo from SAR 335

"Lovely stay at Gloria Palace royal, hopefully these words help: - taxi from the airport is around 70€ - breakfast is fantastic, plenty of cooked options and the freshly made omelette was a favourite of ours. - rooms are spacious and overlook the beach, but are starting to look a little dated. - maid comes everyday if you leave the sign on the door and brings 500ml of still and sparkling water. - there is no iron or ironing room…this was the biggest annoyance as we had to then pay for the ironing, so 7€ a dress and 5€ a shirt as example can soon add up. So either take your own iron or be prepared to pay. That said, the ironed clothes was returned in 24 hours (but could take 48)!! - hotel is spotlessly cleaned. - infinity pool is great and has a water dispenser, so take a refillable bottle, it helps! - pool towels are provided free of charge which is a good touch (but expected from a nice hotel) - no shop in the hotel, but a small spar shop is close, otherwise there are some limited vending machines placed around the hotel! - staff are friendly and helpful! - evening entertainment is ok, otherwise Puerto Rico is about 7€ in a taxi. Overall, would recommend but make sure you take an iron!! "

"Very lovely staff, made it an amazing vacation. Super helpful and lots of stuff to do around the area! Loveddd the all inclusive<3 Only down side is at 1am they ask you to be quiet and stay in one area of the hotel due to children. Would’ve been better if it was adults only."

"I like everything, the food, the staff so friendly, very respectful, specially a guy name Abel, super nice person, and in reception Enrique. I wish every hotel in the world will have people like this guys. Overall the hotel was excellent"

"Food was ok but wasn't fantastic. The first 3 days most things were dry, and tough. Warm food was cold and cold food warm. They have a few activities throughout the day on site but really not that many options and the activities are no more than 30-45 minutes during the day which for somethings like archery make it difficult to enjoy if your turn is only 3 shots and on to the next person. Most staff were friendly but a few were rude, especially since we were english speaking. Avoid the photo hotel, its a scam and most workers will waste your time since they want you to buy the bundle. We were content with purchasing a few photos but they ignored us and tried to play games when we said as much. We ended up walking away with no photos after spending 20-30 minutes the day before having them taken. The dining room and reception/main space are stunning but everywhere else needs a lot of TLC. Water damage can be seen to a lot of the walls in the hallways and one of the rooms. One of our bathrooms had a lot of water pooling into the floor because of the design of the tub and glass partition. Also found that the shape of the tub and sloping allowed for water to pool and remain at the bottom. All inclusive has two levels for drinks. Regular and premium, if you want to have margaritas or cocktails, you have to say extra per day per person in the room."

"Excellent choice of breakfast"

"Have stayed there twice before but this time the room was situated in a very bad block of the hotel. No sun no view massive tree in front of the window. Could not change as it was full so they said. We requested the area we would have like to stay they said they never received it !! Really twice! Very disappointed considering we were there twice before."

"My third time at the hotel. A great property in a good location for walking to the beach or the commercial centre."

"We were sadly disappointed with part of this stay. We travel frequently with Airbnb & Hotels.com. I return to Hotels because normally, we are very pleased. This was not one of those times. Our check-in was very long. We had to hand over passports a few times for they couldn’t find our reservation. We asked for hotel restaurant for some lunch. The gal who helped us check in wasn’t informed that there was indeed a spot we could have more than chips, snacks, as she said. Our room was beautiful with ocean views. Bathroom sink was clogged. I asked twice for it to be fixed. When our room was cleaned they took the dirty towels but forgot to replace them. The hotel info says mini bar in room. There is not one. The service & breakfast buffet is incredible all around. We had a barbecue Dinner one night which was very nice. Staff very helpful & kind. Pool was magnificent. Swam every day. The dinner shows were amazing! Flamenco Dancers were incredible! The vibe is cruise like. The guests were either with young ones or 60+. Overall we wouldn’t return. But, we had a wonderful time overall. The nearby beaches and boat days are a must! They gave us a late check out for our troubles. "
