One customer opinion about his/her journey in Magic Cristal Park

London 31 mar 2008

Me and a good friend (both in our 40s) wanted a last minute A.i. 1week holiday and were worried about what we could get with two days notice for £320, but weren’t disappointed with Magic Crystal Hotel. Many people we met had been several times before! It’s in town, 5 mins walk from the sea, 20 mins walk to the Bus or train stn. On arriving we were pleased to feel as though we were in Spain and not little England as there were a lot of Spanish bustling noisily around the small but nice foyer! (Brits are in the minority). We were given Rm 719, a large double bedroom plus a separate area with a sofabed, TV Fridge and tea / coffee facilities; balcony with side sea view; bathroom. Our room could do with a spruce-up but was kept clean with fresh rough towels! Staff are friendly and helpful but there aren’t enough of them to help carry bags to the rooms unless absolutely necessary. Weather was surprisingly good at over 20c and we made good use of the roof bar and sunterrace with views over the city and sea. The pool is a bit cold, but the jacuzzi warm. THE FOOD IS VERY GOOD! Lots of choice, variety and good quality every day. See pics. in fact a lot of the other hotel guests come to eat here (but it never got too busy or ran out of food). You can use any of the other 8 hotels in the magic group to eat / drink / see entertainment. Several evenings entertainment were good, some were dated but fun for the kids (parrot or snake show), but the resident singer here doesn’t inspire people to dance. Benidorm beaches and town are nice and more upmarket than Brits think, and we would come again, but remember magic is 3star and some years old, so don’t expect perfection. Tim.
