Hotel Histrion

Very good accomodation for business trip

Nicely renovated and perfect location. Staff is not the friendliest. We States there over the summer 2024 and enjoyed the warm sea. Breakfast is ok and offers healthy choices also. Nice viet from room facing the harbour. Nice indoor sea water pool area/spa. Parking was Easyjet and free- a Big plus.

The whole hotel is reminiscent of the trade union resorts of the socialist era. On arrival, there is no access to the entrance, and luggage has to be carried about 50 metres to the reception, come rain or shine. Parking is free, provided you can find a parking space somewhere, and there's no help in finding one, park where you can, in my case it was about 500 metres from the hotel, on the hill next to the buses. The groups arrive in huge buses - like in socialism for the tour - so as a private guest you have to wait until the groups' business is sorted out, then it's your turn. The guest area has been renovated, but the service roads are in a state of terminal disrepair. The air-conditioning units have probably not been cleaned for years, smiling merrily with mould... Meals are served in rotation, and you can pick up your prepaid breakfast and dinner on a self-service basis. The noise is horrendous, over 100 people trying to eat at once, children screaming and shouting is the normal noise level. At dinner, the few staff who call themselves waiters - the rest are just clearing the dishes - immediately find you to bring you a drink at a gold price, which they don't pour and, for example, you have to drink beer from a wine glass, as it's on the table, they don't bring you another. The crowds can make you wait half an hour to pay for your drink, but if you don't tip enough they will make a point of it, making faces. They heat without any need for heating, but you can't adjust the temperature on the panel in the room, it's disabled, and if you open the balcony door, the rain pours into the room. Do not go during school holidays, because the swimming pool area is full of parents with small children and the pool is not big enough for such a crowd, because other paying guests can come in from the outside. Kids running around screaming in the hallways, nothing like a four star hotel. The swimming pool water is dirty, smelly, after a swim the bathing suits smelled so bad you couldn't wash them. We threw them out. The staff are not helpful, they don't even want you to have a good time and come back because of the mass tourism. I will not.
