San Antonio, Hotel Tropical

I was recommended this hotel by a fiend go use to work in Ibiza. What she didn't tell me was that from June to October this hotel is like a 24 hour nightclub full of 18-25 year old boys who are tuning around the hotel at 8am after clubbing, banging on the doors, playing loud music and just not letting anyone sleep. I purchased breakfast with my room and only once we had breakfast, the other 7 nights we were so tired from the nose we were not able to wake up for breakfast. If your a young guy going with your mates and want to make nose then book this hotel. In your a young girl in your 20s like me and want to get your beauty sleep and be able to wake up and go sunbathing then book Del Mar which is down the bottom of the west end strip.

Overall the staff were friendly, open 24 hours, cheap hotel, there is a pool and free sun loungers across the road an this hotel is a Club 18-30 hotel, but on the website it does not state this.

We paid for 2 rooms, 1 with a pool view for 2 persons, and a room for 3 overlooking the back of the hotel. We paid half board which was a mistake. I have eaten in some hotels over the world, but the quality and shockingly, the choice here was awful to put it mildly. Choice of 2-3 meals per day, fish nuggets which were just mush in batter, hair IN the jelly in the evenings, and to make it worse, service to match. Never a smile, welcome sir, just met with a clip board and pointed where to sit. Plates snatched away when finished and handed back to the waitress - only occurred with the British holiday makers, but not the other Europeans staying. And we are the politest you could imagine (as i know the image of a typical UK holiday maker).

Eat here twice, never again, so save your money and go B&B. Now, onto the night security, i am not going to give the guy any more publicity than he deserves, all i will say is go on Facebook and type in Security Guard Hotel Tropical. I will leave it at that.

Best for this hotel is Accom only, and eat out.

Would i return, no! Would i return to Ibiza, of course, i love the island, and it is a shame as this hotel is right near the sunset bars and West End.

Improvements:

Staff and Customer Service skills.

Night Security not being a leech with the girls and threatening to groups (being told you are speaking too loud in a room is a disgrace, no music playing).

Restaurant - and everything with it.

Shame really, had a lovely holiday, just away from the hotel.
