Hotel San Carlos

The buffet breakfast and dinner. Also the huge pool

The rooms did not look like the ones in the brochure. They were small and dated.

Easy free parking. Generous choice of breakfast. Pleasant staff (however, I speak Spanish) Large pool area kept clean and tidy. Low bar prices. Quiet residential area. Great views.

The bedrooms need renovation. The bathrooms have been modernised and are good, but the plain wooden furniture is scratched and tired. One simple chair, a plain wooden desk. The tv was an old type, and small (15" screen). Irritating was having to pay on arrival, having to put a deposit for the tv remote-control, and having to pay up-front to use the telephone. All in all the price is rather high - for not much more, I stayed at various Paradores. But it was a holiday (San Juan)

The comfortof the hotel was good and the meals were fine and reasonably priced.

The hotel is situated in a residenciel area just above Roses. It is very quiet with a beautiful view over the mountains from the outdoor pool. The pool itself is beautiful and extremely well kept.

Indoor pool closed as it was the end of the season.
