Awful Hotel
Reception staff were extremley rude and arrogant. They would only understand what they wanted to. You would never in a life time get away with being like that in an English hotel.
The food was ok, again the staff rude and couldnt bring themselves to smile.
Drinks were absolutly outragous! do not drink in the hotel bring your own!
The pool was ok, dont thinl you were even allowed to swim in this pool, you would get told off for everything!
I would not suggest anyone going to this hotel.

Great location
Me and my wife stayed at the belvedere this September, we also visited the hotel last year. The food has improved this year, a very nice carvery every night, freshly cooked pizza was also available nightly. A lot of the food is aimed at the Spanish clients, but you are in SPAIN, not BLACKPOOL. The rooms are always very clean and we have always been happy with them. The hotel is 10 minutes walk to Port Aventura theme park and 10 minutes to the beach, ideal for visiting these two areas. the hotel is not really aimed at families it is more of an hotel for older couples, nice bar area but loads of bars within walking distance, best 1 we found was 007's great fun every nite, we would return to the belvedere again no problem, clean, quiet and a good location, but not for families.

Disgusting
When we booked the holiday with first choice we were told that the hotel was a family hotel really nice and it would have lots for the children to do. but when we got there we were really annoyed that we traveled all that way to what we found, the room was too small we asked for 2 single beds and one double we had two doubles, the room was disgusting, the food was horrid nothing for the kids to eat no English food, all the Spanish that were staying there were rude and they were all old with wheelchairs and took the sun loungers round the pool every day, the only thing nice about it was the English shops and the weather, I cant say nothing nice about the hotel just that we weren’t happy and to move us would have meant to pay more money we already paid loads for this holiday we are very disappointed and this is our first family holiday we will never go back to the belvedere hotel but Salou was ok. They need to sort out the staff and the hotel and it would be ok.

Hell Hotel Belvedere
We stayed here from the 9th of May until the 16th 2006. We went on an educational trip with 33 others including tutors doing travel and tourism.
We were very dissapointed with the hotel to start with the hotel did not look a thing like what was on the brochures, I think you should read the trade descriptions act as this really doesn't go with this.
We went up to our room and we booked a three bedded. Only to receive a twin room when we arrived, this means there was three of us sharing two beds. As you can imagine it was pretty cramped with two people sharing a room, three was practically unbearable.
Anyway we then went to sleep as it was about 12 o clock by the time we got over the ridiculous size of our room and we thought we will get it sorted at the welcome session in the morning.
We woke up to go to breakfast the staff were very rude to us they didn't smile and ha dthe urge to barge trollies into us as we were getting our breakfast. Yes the food was the same th...Read more

Absoloutly appaling
This hotel was absolutely appalling. The hotel staff is unfriendly, unhelpful and moody. Firstly, the swimming pool is a good size, apart from the fact you aren't allowed 2 take balls into it, or floats, or wear sunglasses and they frown upon you splashing, and no jumping in. there are no outside toilets and you have to get dressed and put shoes on to go inside the hotel to use the toilets, the gym consists of a rowing machine and a bike, the sauna is freezing, and the steam room is tiny. Next, the rooms, they are relatively small, the lights kept on going off not only in our room but on others, they never got cleaned and when they did the maids stole money and precious belongings, towels and sheets weren't replaced despite asking, and they were filthy to start with. Next is the overall cleanliness of the hotel, its not, there was blood on the wall when walking up the stairs that hadn’t been cleaned and is probably still there now. Next the staff...well where do I start with them, they...Read more
