Grifid Hotel Arabella

Nice, big, clean rooms. Good food, a lot of varieties, for any tastes. Drinks, acceptable, cocktails were nice, very good coffee at bars, not so nice at coffee machines.

All amenities, except pools and gym, have additional costs which are basically equivalent to any SPA costs. Being all inclusive and full of kids, I would expect that for adults the amenities would be free (sauna, steam room). Every morning at 7.30 before the pool opens there were few man waiting to occupy 4-6 chairs each, so by 8.30-9 AM there is no place left, although there is almost nobody at the pool. Employees don't really speak English, parking is very small and although you pay a lot per day, in case you find an empty space upon arrival, they still try to move your car in a parking that belongs to a nearby hotel. Air conditioning, although appears to be working has no impact on room temperature. TV, has incredible poor signal( but I noticed that everywhere I have been in Bulgaria).

Close to the beach, clean, descent food.

Spent a lot of time just waiting for elevators. A lot of noise from the night clubs during the night. Air conditioning not working even after they said they fixed the problem. Mostly just sweat, noise and some really b-bad singing on stage performed by the receptionist and the staff.. unfortunately that continues all through out your dinner. And if you have kids with allergies they do not have any ice cream.
