The hotel we have mainly because of the 'good' rated food and nearby beach elective. Afterwards we would in this hotel and generally in Albena no vacation more. The place was small and a small shopping street with a few restaurants there was not much going on there something to do. There was a beach bar right nearby the hotel (150 meters). There one could 1-2 evenings to spend, then the boring. If you want more action must to about 13 kilometer away, golden Sands and the taxis there are at least as expensive like in Germany. The information from ... Alltours were on site not always that as from responsible Carers in the hotel promised. The quad tour was according to this after a short Rundführung alone go. In the final outcome we are 1 hour to sixth behind the guide in a queue hinterhergefahren and that was it. We have also extra a snorkeling tour joined in, the also afterwards not worth it, because we could exactly many underwater see how at the beach of Albena, in other words nothing (the sand is unfortunately to be quite). Small tip, the bazaar in Varna also worth it not. Recommendable is, itself to rent a car and the oldest city Bulgaria to drive, it takes about 2 hours to get there is worthwhile however ( even if it is very crowded). The most beautiful thing was there evenings the sunset to look at. The car you can also simply in the hotel rent Ultimately we were happy to come home, that we come back to fly home could. read more

I was to second time as guest at the Royal Holiday Palace and this year at the end of the season. The number of tourists was rather 'clear' and the value for money ( full Early Booker discount, since already in December 2011 booked) was good. All of the staff were very friendly, wether at the front desk, in the restaurant, at the bar or even the hotel manager/ restaurants. The room/ bathroom was cleaned properly every day and the ' from towels formed Sculptures ', the you daily found, a nice icing on the cake. The food repeated of ... course, but every day there was fish, Poultry, pork in several variations and everything was very tasty. Great I thought, that daily the typical Bulgarian schopska -salad and that it in the morning on the restaurant-terrace fresh Pfann (eggs ) cakes and evenings always a bit grilled was. If you for dinner went was friendly, mostly from the hotel manager even, with a glass of sparkling wine welcome. The theme nights (2 times a week) with very much love arranged. I do not in the pool baden, the but it looked good. Brilliant is of course the beach, approximately 100 meters wide and the hotel is only the small garden separate, in all-inclusive are per room 2 loungers, the umbrella and the editions included! You'll save to half board about 14, -€ daily! The sea is lovely and the beach clean. I would come back again and again gladly! read more

Up to details the everyone else looks the hotel I would recommend! For children a Animatiosprogramm and the kids club! The beach is class and can only be recommended, I would but everything included book, because the Bulgarians a brazen price for loungers the umbrella and the cushions take ( per day about 10 €) with 2 loungers and 2 cushions and if you had your own umbrella bring along and on the sand, you pay nevertheless converted 2,50 Euro The food could be a little bit been more diverse and repeated. The staff are very friendly and always ... helpful ( top marks) The weather was between 24 and 27 degrees at this time The toilets in the entrance area were definitely not clean. ( improvement) Would this hotel definitely not for the peak season recommend, because there the post office goes off and was pretty loud, because it outside of the season also definitely not was quiet so only from about 1:00 A. M. at night you can sleep read more

The hotel was newly renovated and therefore have a star to give. One is on the ground in the hotel confused, it is now a 3 or four star hotel. It is everywhere something else.

    The rooms were new and modern equipped. The beds were large enough and not through convenient. On the balcony there is a small drying rack. A flat screen tv depends on on the wall. Air conditioning also worked well. A kettle is in the room available. On the window, as well as at the balcony door there was a fly screen. The rooms were regularly cleaned and beautiful decoration of the towels on the bed. Filled mini bar is in the room.

  • Gastronomy

    The food was ok. Hungern must you not. It repeated within the 2 weeks, which everywhere so is. It was not always fresh. What lunch remained remaining, was evenings the casserole made. Outside the grill master and there was grilled food. They were always tasty, but we had for a long time to line up, because it meat ( so we had the impression) extra slow prepared. All dishes in the restaurant were lukewarm, so please always fast to the table walk, otherwise is the food cold.

    The service was ok. At the front desk was speak German and always friendly. We have on the way there the bell boy missed. The cleaning of the rooms was done well, there were tip, the cleaning lady even more trouble. What noticed, that the entrance area/ stay area always also very late time (10:30 P. M.) from the cleaning ladies cleaned. It was not dirty but it was vacuumed. So after the motto 'looks like we are clean'. Attention should rather on other things to be directed. If the hygiene is. The coffee machine at the pool bar smelled sour and the old cloth at the ice bar in the snack bar was also not very appetizing. The wooden table at the snack bar were not regularly cleaned. Days dirty, filthy and sticky. As special guests/ groups arrived, were the tables polished and there were at once waiter at the snack bar. There was the first time dressing at the snack bar. The food became suddenly for 2 days very good, that staff in the dining room had suddenly a new chic uniform at. The guests differences are, is not ok. On the last night our mini bar already cleared, fridge empty. That isn't on at all. Probably the hotel has bad experiences with vacations made.

    The shallow pool is nice. It was from the morning until the evening animation offered. The entertainers made a lot of effort. At the beach you could volleyball play. The tennis court was very neglected and not maintained. For tennis games, the own tennis balls to bring their own. The balls are there a catastrophe. Albena is a tennisparadies. At the front desk you can buy a internet card for 5 Lev. Buy, where one 1 hour the internet use.

    The hotel is directly at the beach. The strolling promenade is also just a few strides away. Albena is a small quiet place. For children is very much in the place offered, since the child heart on. The beach is very beautiful, light fine sand. Albena is a place for themselves. Who peace and beach searches, is in the right place here.

Albena was a small town, lots of hotels, restaurants and shops. The hotel Royal Holiday Palace was directly on clean beach. It is not too big. Rooms were well and always clean. The staff were always friendly. At the front desk was also speak German and the entertainment programs were also always in German. The food was good but had then but always repeated. The only thing which little was missing, was Informationsmatrial. Only if one asked, where is for example the post, has a plan of Albena get, where one then times had an overview over everything.

Otherwise get per room 2 loungers and 1 umbrella, that counts for the beach. Cleanliness could much better his, if simply times which one wipes off.

    If you child travels should the shuttle from the airport be not far and this is of varna about 40 minutes, which absolutely okay is. The hotel lies right next to beach. In the evening you will find directly on the promenade many entertainment possibilities for the whole family! But also many shopping possibilities!

    We had a family room, that means two together, the double room, only separated by a connecting door. We had accordingly also twice, that means 2 bathrooms, 2 balcony, 2 tv ( not the important). That was really great. The rooms were well maintained, also furnished nicely. From a bathroom it stank from the drain in the shower, this was already many a time criticized, but with a darübergestülpten cups you could also fix it. We arrived at the friday morning and tuesday not even in the bathroom swept respectively in the remaining room vacuumed (the living area with carpet laid out). I have complained on tuesday then, afterwards it was then suddenly, everything was well cleaned.

    There was 1 main restaurant with an outdoor terrace and view of the sea, as well as a snackbar for details at noon, a pool bar. And a bar, the in the entrance area is. The quality of the dishes is overall also nothing to complain about, the selection was however more than poor. Every day there were as a side dish rice and so-called 'fried potatoes' ( potatoes in disks in fat fried, without any spice, onions, etc.). There were often fish and chicken, who here of no lovers is, had often lost. Outside was every day freshly cooked but always chicken and a whole fish, that means with head and so on for cutting. For cleanliness was not a priority. So you could get lucky, if you want a clean tablecloth had and the crumbs from the previous guests poured out were, which so good as never the case. The floor was sticky throughout the dining room, so that one always' schmatzende ' noise left, if you with flip-flops on the way was. The crowning however is the snack bar: plastic plates and plastic cutlery ( I haven't hotel with all inclusive-service experienced ) everyday the same: pizza, balkanröllchen, salad ( if you white cabbage and red cabbage without any dressing at all can be so called), fettgebratene potatoe chips. The used dishes were from the staff also not cleared, so that the tables within short time totally trashy appeared. Here one could not quiet conscience food, without running the risk of, something wegzuholen. To the dessert there were then do ice. Disaster! The garbage bin overflowing and by the leftovers, the around the garbage bin assembled, I start only not at all at. I think for a four-star hotel ( for the it is) very bad conditions.

    The employees in the lobby were all quite friendly and understood and spoke also partly quite good German. In the morning and evenings was the reception with a currency exchange facilities, in which you his money a very good course could change, which was very convenient. The employees in the restaurant seemed often mürrisch and warped no expression, some of them were but also very friendly. On the cleanliness I will down still dwell. The laundry service we also once taken into account, our towels to clean, which super folded, next day they were already done and for 4 towels we had to 18 leva are charged, which completely okay was. My complaint, which the cleaning of the rooms concerned, were immediately cared for and you have very friendly response.

    The animatlon has a good job, the shows were as a part of the possibilities, in any case what we saw, good. The pool area looks small and could in any case a bit deeper, swimming was not great possible, crowded it was at least middle/ end of August not, as the majority of the guests at the beach went. So you always got a beach chair, was not a problem. The cleanliness here however also again to be desired. There were at any time the loungers with a hose hosed off, let alone the cushions. The loungers and also the cushions were always dirty, the cups on the tables next to the chairs, the guests forget had bad wasting everywhere, were on the next day still there. I would still understand, when staff shortages prevailed would have, but this was not sunday For the pool area were several employee responsible but they were probably not responsible or played dear maps or made it under the sun screen comfortable ) the crowning was at the pool bar the coffee machine. pottendreckig, absolutely disgusting. Thank god it went at the time where we were, broken and had to be cleaned. The beach against spick-and-span. Constantly one saw cleaning ladies, the beach to some trash absuchten, the chairs and covers made a clean impression in spite of the high number of guests.

    The hotel is outdated however in good condition. Reception area/ lobby nicely finished and everything was clean, what you from the rooms, the pool area and above all the snack bar can't say. Nationalities: too many romanians, some German, russians many families with children. Towels could at the front desk for the beach borrow, per day 3 leva per towel.

    From the airport varna we are about 40 minutes drive, which completely okay was. The hotel is directly at the beach, just across the promenade and you are in 2 minutes to the wonderful broad, clean sandy beach. Also you are within a few minutes in the center with many stands, restaurants, supermarkets etc. Excursions many offered, also in the absolute price-performance -proportion.

For a family vacation with children until about 12 years great budget-conscious alternative a 'Spain vacation'. In the high season we have 2 adults and child, 8-years-old, rD. 2350 Euro for all inclusive paid. Even if you some details reckoned has, the not so perfect, We are altogether very satisfied having been made. Drawbacks for the food and at the pool, but anyway its individual Geschmacksneigung -our Taschengeldbeutel was less than expected, and our daughter from the animation team very well maintained and cared for, so that 'parental leave' was possible. For normal-earning people without Starallüren you can quite 2 ... weeks relaxation, as well as 'action' have. For childless and party animals is this hotel rather less suitable. read more

    With all inclusive you can't filet and parma ham expect. For me the food was good and tasty. With more staff and ideas you can more variety offer. Glass sparkling wine before the dinner at the front desk I found nice. In snackbar you should itself let which break in. Pizza was perfect, but always quickly. Salads, potatoes and hackfleischwürstel are too monotonous. Cakes would have been nice, or even a burger! With the drinks there was the local alcohol and beer from the barrel, juices and soft drinks. For a few leva also moderate cocktails and imported drinks. -but for all including all typical. -often plastic cup also in the hotel.

    For all inclusive it was usual, that you all self service. There are mostly friendly staff the a the vacation enrich, other make only their job, or the not even. For perfect service you should then 5 stars or not all inclusive. Rooms were clean, sometimes also beautifully the bed made, depending on who on duty. Perfection there was only in Germany, but we had nothing to moan about-we were on vacation.

    The 4 girls of the entertainment were not pushy, but did a good job. As they just were four of us had I strong praise for the evening show and the children had great fun. If you wanted you could -, the other had their peace. So perfect. The pool area should be increased, there is only a pool and that is not for swimming-rather for children. The sea nd beach are the beautiful. Loungers there were always enough.

We recovered very well and our vierjärige had his fun in the shallow pool! Otherwise mostly all hotels the directly at the beach are small pools. Understand therefore not some reviews. You could quickly from sea on pools and change always 2 chairs and an umbrella didi, also at 10 o'clock yet. We liked the food and there was always 3 kinds of meat/ fish. The rooms were clean and modern ( bathroom had small problem with Drain smell but towel upstairs and it was). Cleaning was great, they helped us again and again with small elephants/ swans, Rose CT. ... Surprised) The animation was also very nice and Ivelinas laugh is very contagious. Also the other 3 girls made a huge effort. In short. Bulgaria is great for have a vacation to pleasant price, beach in Albena is great! Four star for Bulgaria completely okay.

A lovely vacation for families with children. Single come here not on their costs, since not much ' life in the evening' like for instance it is right in varna is offered. Very much 'lunapark, children's carousels, amusement park so' are available, the naturally genuinely into the money can go - however therefor is of course every responsible. Who now a mediterranean southern seafront promenade, should rather after malle above flies. Beach is but very clean and well-kept. Also the swimming pool great for children, but nothing for Schwimmfreunde -deepest point about 1.50 meters. Hotel inside renovated, from the ... outside should albena pretty much all hotels be updated. Staff very friendly, pleasant and accommodating. At the buffet is something there for everyone and tasty, some things but unfortunately by the air conditioning in the dining room fast cold. At the beach and at the pool there were always enough loungers. To the beach straight 2 minutes, great. We were very satisfied. read more
