Hostal Magnolia

Very nice family personal

The staff at this hotel are nothing short of fabulous and really make the hotel. Other than that the hotel is acceptable but really needs a bit of investment to make it worth the money. No air conditioning meant we had to leave the windows wide open which wasn't good for my 1.5year old as it was very noisy from the bar/pool area and passers by. The rooms were very dated and basic - not even a tea/coffee tray, one of the walls was covered in drink marks/stains, and the bathroom could have done with re-grouting at least. The hotel is conveniently placed for the beach, shops etc and not right in the centre of all the late night activity so I'm sure the noise was not as bad as it could have been but I wouldn't generally suggest Lloret de mar as a destination with children. The hotel itself serves basic but very good value for money food and the bar area is cozy and friendly. The pool is basic but clean and again not great for young children as it's small and deep but my son enjoyed it anyway with his dad. The rest of the hotel is convenient and has everything it needs and I can't stress how much the staff really did make our holiday memorable - they were fantastic with my son - he loved them, especially Goyo who mainly runs the bar area but appears to do everything else too! My son still talks a few Spanish words now were home and still talks about the staff, so clearly he had a lovely time!
