Very beautiful hotel, looks quite new. |Pros: |- location on the sea front, you have direct access to the sea. Located along the Corniche Kennedy which is a great spot for walks, jogs, cycle rides. Stunning views of the Mediterranean from the room, and the hotel common areas |- new, well equipped rooms, with a nice desk, well organized spaces, nice bathroom with bath robes and flip flops instead of those old fashioned slippers|- buffet breakfast: it is very good and very good variety too, at least for my European taste. I think it is fairly priced too. One downside is that if you want just a small breakfast with perhaps one drink and a small bite you would have to get that from the bar, which I think is not that great. I had one latte there, and they made it with long life milk which is unacceptable for the price||Cons:|- parking is expensive, I understand that private parking costs have somehow exploded recently, but it is still too expensive. Free parking can be easily found on the Corniche, adjacent to the hotel. But it is not safe. A gang of thieves was operating during my stay and they stole the cover of the mirror of my car, and apparently of several others, while I was there.|- getting there: I had difficulties getting there and out of there. Google maps (which recently seems to have become really bad) made me use a tunnel inside the city which is outrageously expensive, over 6 euros to go through it|- the gym is quite ugly, I did not even consider using it and went instead jogging on the stunning corniche along the sea just outside |- the chair in the room is quite uncomfortable, made of hard plastic, cannot be used for a prolonged time, for instance to work at your laptop
