Mònica Hotel

The hotel looks in and outside very classy but then I was given room 209. The room was good and then i decided to go onto the balcony this is when it all went wrong. The view from the balcony was horrendous straight infront of me was the back of 2 apartments with balcony . Their balconies where a dumping ground for the tenants there. It had fridges freezers dirty cloths hanging on line animal cage and other bric bac. I would not have minded if I overlooked a street or shops but not eyesores. When you read on any room in the hotel that says it has a balcony then you at least expect a view , the hotel should say view from balcony not pleasant. Also the time we were there the tv never had any english channels or subtitles I appreciate you don't go on holiday to watch TV but I like to see a bit of news and weather. The hotel should put on thier website about the tv. I spoke to reception they said there was a notice stating no English channels due being new provideders and waiting for engineer , but they did not seem bothered. The breakfast was basic the same each day really not English breakfast as I know it. Dinner was very good. I don't think this hotel is a 4 more of a 3 star.

My friend & I enjoyed our week at the Monica Hotel very much. Our room was very spacious and spotlessly clean with comfortable beds. Small balcony but lovely view over the pool and pretty garden. We thought the food selection & quality was exceptional for a small hotel - couldn't fault it, spoilt for choice every time! Great lunch time bar menu too, very good value. Santos was a great character - running the bar from 4pm. All the staff were super and really seemed to appreciate my limited spanish! The hotel location was great, literally 1 minute from the sea front! We were blessed with clear blue skies & sunshine every day and enjoyed strolling along the long promenades & browsing the many shops. We visited Park Sama on the land train, went to the old town of Cambrils & had a day in Tarragona which was well worth seeing. We had a lovely holiday & would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

We had a room on the first floor with balcony and pool view. Well, what is great about the hotel is location, breakfast and stuff. The hotel is situated in few minuets from the beach, all the restaurants and shops. Breakfast is truly good and had varied choice of tasty food starting with different tortillas, sausages, cheese and ending with bakery and fresh fruits!! Stuff is very helpful and nice!! As for the rest, the main problem is an absence of soundproofing!! You hear each closed door, each splash in the bathroom above, each cough in neighbor room!! Moreover, at 7.45-7.50 am monotonous music starts playing in the garden. Absolutely no chances to sleep well!! As for the room, it’s just basic. Nothing except quite loud air-conditioning, TV and hair-dryer. Too basic for 4-stars hotel. Floor on the balcony is really strange and uncomfortable. So, although Camblirs is really nice place and our staying was generally OK, we were disappointed by conditions of the room.
