10 days at El Paso with 4 teenagers! Loads to do and the Parks so close by! Friendly staff in a great location. All Inc Drinks and Poolside food were great but the nightly fare gets a bit boring though it is good, and the A La Carte is a big disappointment as should be a holiday highlight. Rooms are functional but could be better. Staff are friendly but wish there was more poolside activities and sports as even the kids need a change from the Park. Would recommend for active and fun loving families....

We went to Hotel El Paso in September with Portadventura Holidays. It is an official PortAdventura Hotel. The hotel was amazing. We found it great value for money as it is an All Inclusive hotel. Huge variety of food, snacks and drinks. I found myself eating ridiculous amounts of food but, what are holidays for!! The hotel pool was so large I could not get the entire pool in a photo just sections of each part. The children's pool has a large boat in it. The two snack bars beside the pool are great...

I went to portadventura in May of this year with my dad. We stayed in Hotel Caribe where ALL the staff were amazingly kind and always smiling, which I think all workers should be like put in other places I have stayed (not portadventura) that was not the case. I believe that staff should be warm and helpful,like in hotel caribe, so that the guests feel warm and happy and this was how I felt every day in or holiday. Once we had checked into he hotel we found out that our room was not ready yet so...

stayed in the port aventura hotel, really clean hotel, friendly staff and a huge room. loved the easy access to the park...and although my 'children ' are grown up ( 22 &25) there was lots too see and do. had great fun on all of the rides especially the furious baca!! The only thing that was disappointing was no shuttle into Salou, it made for a long walk there and back! I have already recommended it to a couple of friends with younger chilren as a great place to visit. thanks for the memories....

Ive recently come back from Portaventura and stayed all inclusive at the El Paso themed hotel. It was a great week. I took my two teenage daughters who loved it as well and never got bored. Hotel was very nice and the food was excellent. Thought the rooms were a bit small and paper thin walls but apart from that had a brilliant time. Dont let the room bother you though, you wont be in it long enough for it to spoil the time. Theme park was great fun....

We went back in June 2011 in a group of 5 of us in our 20's, and stayed at the hotel Caribe with unlimited park tickets, even for June the temp was 25c+. plenty of food choice(definitely book with breakfast buffet), bars, and pools including a sand bottom pool and volley ball court all in the hotel alone. As well as Salou town only a 10 min walk away (I recommend the Titanic if you eat out). The park was 5 min walk away or a free mini train on the more lazy days.. a great perk was the fast track...

my husband, 2 6 year old girls and myself stayed in El Paso Hotel. We went all inclusive at end May 2011. Excellent choice of food and girls loved the novelty of being able to up and get more as you pleased. When we arrived (Wed)it was lovely and quiet but by the Sunday the English school holidays meant there was a huge influx of people! We preferred the quiet, but that just us! If you have small children i would recommend asking for a room away from the entertainment area. Entertainment very good...

This is the only holiday experience we have had where we all felt we would be prepared to return to the same place again in the future. We do not usually consider going to the same place twice but we felt this place had everything. This was the first time we have been all inclusive and found the food to be really well done and varied - we could not think of anything that was missing. We could not fault the service or anything else in the restaurants - all the tables were set out with attention to...

Our holiday to PortaVentura was a total suprise for 11 year old adrenalaline ride junkie daughter, we had managed to keep the destination secret right up until we arrived and then she still didn't have a clue what the next 2 weeks would bring. When we set foot through the lobby of the Hotel Gold River, we couldn't believe our eyes. The pictures on the website and in the brochures just didn't do the place any justice, it far exceeded our expectations. From that very moment we knew we were going to...

Just got back from our second consecutive visit to the all inclusive Hotel El Paso. After fully enjoying our stay last year we rebooked for our family holiday (Myself and my two daughters aged 16 & 12), and have to stay the whole experience has improved from last year. The theme park has added the new Barrio sesamo for the very young whilst the fastest ride I’ve ever been on (Furious Baco) has lost none of its fear factor. The park is open till midnight and the final parade and show on the lake...

My husband and I spent a week at Hotel el paso with our two boys in June this year and had a fantastic holiday! A week wasn't long enough! The hotel was lovely with a brilliant pool for the boys to play in! The food was great with a huge variety every day. The all inclusive package is such good value for money. The theme and water park were only a 5-10 minute walk or 2 minutes on the mini train which stopped outside the hotel regularly. The evening entertainment was good fun both children and adults!...

We had a great holiday again. This is the second year running and everything was good. The staff were all excellent from the childrens entertainers, dininng room staff , receptionists and cleaners everyone made us welcome and were helpful. The only comment as a vegetarian was there could be more main meals suitable for those of us who choose not to eat meat or fish. We will be back again next year as the children say its their favourite place, who am i to argue with that! ...

My boyfriend and I stayed in in PortAventura- El Paso hotel! It was the best experience ever had on a holiday, the all inclusive made all the difference! Was great not having to worry about money when on site and all the food and drink kept us both happy! As my boyfriend had never been on a roller-coaster, it made the experience that more worthwhile! We even enjoyed the night time entertainment and were found singing the songs! As for booking through PortAventura holidays, they were of great assistance...

From the booking to the trip itself it was very easy with Portaventura Holidays. A sizeable discount eased the initial pain and the trip itself was hassle free from the "no frills" flight to the transfers. The hotel was clean, the staff helpful and the food excellent. Entertainment in the evening was varied and very professional. The theme park and the water park were also excellent value plenty to see and do. I cannot praise highly enough the whole experience and would thoroughly recommend it to...

The warm weather hit you as soon as you were off the plane. In the distance you could see the drop ride from the Theme Park - already we were excited. Check-in at the hotel was smooth and easy - the room was great, a fridge, air-conditioning, great big bath, powerful shower, the works. The theme park was fantastic - after 7 days we were still left wanting more, which is exactly how it should be. My personal highlight? The huge buffet breakfasts at the hotel - the food selection was massive and all...

Had a fantastic time in August. Park had everything and more, and the All inclusive hotel was the best we have been to. Would definitely recommend and go again! Having been to Disney in LA and Florida and Eurodisney, we are theme park mad. We were very surprised with Port Aventura, the shows were excellent and the park was beautiful. Worth getting fast passes though, as you can go on as many times without queuing for long. ...

We had a wonderful time at Portadventura - Some great selection of rides for the adults and for my 6 year old daughter. We went in the May half term and it wasn't too busy then, so we didn't have to queue very long for the rides, except on the last day of our visit when it got very crowded. There were some excellent shows especially the "Hola portadventura" which we watched twice. My daughter really enjoyed meeting the characters and the new sesame street theme area. Food and drinks was pricey as...

We returned to Portaventura for the second year running with our (now) 7 year old daughter, having had a wonderful week in 2010. 2011 turned out just as great with so much variety available, we didn't repeat the previous years experiences, but managed to find new and exicting things to do. We stayed in Hotel El Paso last year and Hotel Portaventura this year which were both great and catered for both lazy days round the pool and obviously free entrance into the Park itself. We would definitely recommend...

The hotel was great and exceeded all expectations. Everything was of a very high standard. We all loved it from the oldies right down to the toddlers. The breakfast was the best full English that we have ever we have ever had outside the Uk. PortaVentura Park.

Only one negative point and that was the time spent in a queue...

I stayed at the Hotel El Paso in August for one week with my two kids and had a brilliant time. It was all inclusive and well worth the money. We loved the food, which is a worry with children. The kids had loads of fun around the pool. We went to the Theme park after breakfast, avoided it during the hottest part of the day, so headed back to hotel at lunch time and spent afternoon around the pool. After the evening meal we got the free train back up to the Park again and dandered around at our...

We really enjoyed our week at the Hotel Gold River. The only thing I would change is to have a self serve laundry at the resort for those staying more than just a couple of days. It would be much easier to pack less and do laundry during the week. The breakfast variety was very good and we were seated quickly, even when there was a long line. The restaurants in the hotel and park did not disappoint either. It was very nice to be able to explore Barcelona, Tarragona and go to the beach in Cambrilis...

There is a kiddie section with a pirate ship in it and young kids have a blast with water squirters- hilarious to watch when sunbathing! Endless carte d'or icecream and fizzy pop at the poolside, along with a hut at the pool serving hot dogs and chips- the kids were in heaven!!

Knowing that Salou as a resort is generally grotty we were very pleasantly surprised to arrive at the El Paso and have everything you need on site and at the theme park to totally satisfy the holiday. We went with 2 couples, one with a 4 yr old and one with a 13 & 17 yr old and ALL tastes were catered for. The food t EL Paso(all inclusive) was good if not exceptional (which is a rare treat in Spain) the drinks (for the adults) were mainly branded drinks including spirits and beers. The pool complex...

We (2 adults & 3 children) stayed at Hotel Gold River for one week during the summer holidays. We had adjoining rooms which was great and the standard of accommodation was very good - the TV even had some English channels. The pool was large and only a 30 second walk. Every time we went there we had no problem getting sun beds. Direct access to the theme park was excellent, meaning that you could very easily return to your room if you fancied a break for an hour or two in the afternoon and have...
