Lovely grounds and lovely views. Pools were huge and were lovely (although FREEZING).


Bad Points

Staff were not always friendly and the hotel was more Spanish orientated than it was for British.


General Comments

I have just returned from H10 Rubicon Palce July 08 and had a fantastic time. On arrival to the hotel we had to wait about 2 and a half hours to get our room and after travelling all day, I have to say I was not happy, however the rest of our stay made up for that. We got to our room and it was lovely, it was right by the pool which at first I thought oh no but it was so quiet there it turned out to be fine. Our room was clean and really big but all the doors in the room were either broken or on their way to being broken. The front door concerned me the most as it didn't seem safe. After THREE days they finally came out and fixed them. The pool area was lovely and you could always find a sun lounger no matter what time you went. The pools were huge but were freezing cold. The weather was good but VERY windy and it is very deceiving as you don't realise how much you catch the sun! The hotel was quite a walk from the town but the free bus put on is brill but only drops you off to the sister hotel which is about a 10 minuite walk away from the town. You can get a taxi which we did try but there was so many rude people there they got in them all even though we had called them for ourselves. I have to say the majority of the guests there were either German or Spanish. But we got used to it by the end of the holiday. The food was lovely but the breakfast disappointed me as there wasn't much there I personally liked but that's my own opinion. The evening entertainment was Ok but the starlite express show was so boring we ended up leaving half way through! ALL the entertainment is in Spanish so it was such hard work trying to understand! With the all inclusive drinks menu you are only allowed about 3 drinks on the cocktails menu which in my opinion didn't have a drop of alcohol! They come out of a machine! That says it all ! If you pay for them they will make them from scratch and taste like a totally different drink! I was really disappointed with this! Overall the holiday was a positive one but I could think of a number of improvements they could make to make it more of a 4* to me it was more like a 3 and a half!
