Pub • Bufé • Desayuno • Vegetariano


"The Bon Sol is on a hilly slope over three buildings with a good lift system for the less mobile. There are not many external bars and restaurants in the immediate area. The hotel has two nice bar areas, one by the pool and one in the top, main building. It has a formal restaurant and an informal coast restaurant. The coast bay is very small and private. Neither hotel restaurant was great for vegetarians and there is no offer to do something special. The only Pizza for us was Margarita. We asked for vegetables on it but everything is standard with no offer to adapt. The formal restaurant was just ‘take off the meat and fish and have what is left.’ Ie salmon and melon “we can remove the salmon for you.” There is a buffet salad bar but often the bowls were empty when we got there around 8.30 9pm. No one offering to replenish. The food we did have in the hotel was quite nice. Breakfast was busy and again things had often got low with no replenishment. There are two lovely external, coastal restaurants nearby. Just a medium walk around to the next bay. Not much else in the way of bars and restaurants in walking distance from the hotel The staff were mostly friendly and helpful. They can’t order you a taxi anywhere unless you are going to the airport. Not sure why this is. They can’t order you one for a specific time. They said it was hard to get through on the phone and one would come when it felt like it but not for a specific time. The hotel is celebrating 70 years. It’s a nice old building. There is some beautiful art work on the walls. They have lots of returning guests. We paid extra for a large suite. We had most things we needed. They don’t supply drinking water for the room, after the first bottle. We bought from a local supermarket. The shaded swimming pool is cold. The smaller heated pool has a few always full sun beds around it but no nearby bar. The evening bar staff are lovely. And good at cocktails. Thank you gentlemen!!! Xx Overall, older people seemed to love this hotel and it has an old fashioned air about it. This is a quirky and characterful hotel. Thank you for a nice stay."
