Stayed at the Costa Azul hotel in Palma for 4 days in July. We
would say this is a great hotel for location and the rooms were spacious and
were very clean. We were allocated rooms 100 and 101 on the first floor
overlooking the Marina.
Everyone comments on the road outside but to be honest it was not a problem
the doors are triple glazed so you do not hear a thing during the night and
you are out all day. There are crossings to get accross the road so we did
not see this as a problem whatsoever!
The breakfast is the usual fare expected in a 3 star hotel. The staff are
attentive and helpful.
The hotel bar prices are cheap compared to some of the bars around the
resort.
The only snag was that a football team were staying while we were there and
took over the small pool area which we felt a little intimidated by their
presence as did a lot of the other guests as there was lots of banter going
on jumping in and out of the pool singing etc. They were not aggressive just
mad and noisy and not suited to this lovely establishment!!and we wondered
why they didn't go to Magaluf as they seemed to just stay there all day
drinking and it did spoil our once or twice visit late afternoon for a relax
on the pool teraces.
We went to Soller by the old fashioned rickety train!!which is a great day
out and we also visited (by taxi 15 euros) to Purto Nouls which is a lovely
upmarket resort with fantastic restaurants and bars overlooking the harbour
a bit more pricey but woth every penny the food we ate in a restaurant
called Wellies was delicious. Enjoy!!
