Hotel RH Corona del Mar

This is our 15th visit to the Corona Del Mar and it’s always a pleasure to meet the regular staff and several regular guests. The location is first class and offers easy access to the Poniente promenade and beach.

Corona del mar Benidorm (visited 8-12th March 20) . Hotel exceptionally clean everywhere, Bedroom of good standard although a little on the small side it was fine , was in room 112 which gave us a sea view . Lovely modern bathroom again very clean . Food was good at breakfast but the evening meal was not as good , not a lot of salad choice or cheese to choose from and because I don’t eat meat I found this disappointing.The pasta was on the cold side and the pizza always looked a bit cremated but I didn’t go hungry , there was a lot of nice fruit but the pudding choice was poor . The staff I’m sure would have fetched me fresh pasta if I had asked for it because all the staff were lovely especially the bar staff . People were using hand gel prior to going in the dining room and hand gel was freely available to use at reception and in the bar area . Entertainment was satisfactory but was geared up to the older generation but this was fine me being in my 50s , not many young people there but it was the elderly holiday season lot of different nationalities but everyone was friendly. Location of hotel in the old town was 2 min walk to the beach and round the corner from the villa del mar , little bars and supermarkets everywhere and prices were good , found the little tapas bars fabulous which was about 20 mins walk to the square and marina from the hotel . Although the food could of been better everything else about this little hotel made up for it and I would definitely stay there again , Didn’t use outdoor or indoor pool but it’s worth noting that a swim cap needs to be worn in the indoor pool .

First time we have visited benidorme and so first time at a RH hotel if this hotel RH Corona del Mar is anyhting to go by we will take a look at the chain of hotels when visiting spain again Stayed 8th-13th march room 618 the hotel is located just on the edge of the old town on a main road but not so main as to give any road noise. As has been mentioned in other reviews the staff are excellent from reception to cleaners ,bars staff and restaurant staff. We were not going to eat at the hotel but had a very good offer of half price for the evening meal and lunch and we are very glad we decided to take up the offer for the evening meal the choice every evening was just excellent and all the food was of a very high standard. The buffet has very large choice and is continually replenished every evening the choice changes but the core is always the same something with fish, beef,chicken, etc so we never had to have the same meal. breakfast is also great for choice of food options. our room was extremly clean with good nuetral l decore the room was large with a good size balcony down side was the view of a road behind the hotel but as we did not pick a room with sea view was not expecting anything special. Only have one concern and this is the pool although the area is a good size plenty of free beds we only used the area once during a morning and was disapoined to find for about 1.5hrs to 2 hrs the sun goes behind a large hotel building that is between the hotel and the beach. maybe the time of year we visited maybe this is not a concern when the sun is higher in the sky.
