Have stayed here many years ago, popped in to the bar a few months back and think we shall have a short stay here next time we are in Benidorm. 👍🏼
Just watching this and seen my self I was the person in the green polo in the restaurant I do remember seeing you about a few times what a lovely hotel and a great review I agree about the food labels would help and maybe they could make it clear it's not really a buffet as such more of a small set menu alot of people seemed to be complaining about the very little choice of food we hear buffet and think massive amounts of food maybe if they made it clear when booking people expectations wouldn't be set so high I thought the food they did have an offer was actually really nice breakfast was also good
I’ve never been to Benidorm though my husband has. I’ve just dropped a massive hint to him that I’d like to stay here for my 50th birthday, next February. I hope he cottons on 😅 Thanks for all your great content. I love your honest, down to earth approach. Keep up the good work xx
Great hotel I'm glad you did a review as you know we stayed there over Christmas couldn't fault it congratulations on hitting the 5k well deserved 😊
Finally a hotel could be tempted to stay in. Bed the size of what we have a home. Looks clean and organised. Would never usually think about staying in Benidorm preferring more smaller villages but this looks lovely.
Great video. One for our shortlist. Can I suggest you take a look at sandos benidorm suites. That's a great hotel. Well worth a visit. Doesn't get as much recognition as the rest in Benidorm
Staying there September hope we get a sea view thanks for sharing the videos 😊
Staying here in October thanks for the review. Looking forward to coming even more now
Great video 👏 the hotel looks really lovely, fantastic room and view and food looked good and very reasonable price especially of the location
Hi what an excellent hotel review video. That looks such an awesome hotel and I would stay at that hotel. I liked how modern it looks and the décor is perfect. The view you had front view is worth the extra price. The price is really good.
What a beautiful hotel! Just gorgeous in every respect. What a treat to hear the waves from your bedroom window - such a bonus. Personally, I really liked the look of the buffet - lots of brightly coloured healthy options for breakfast and dinner. Much prefer Spanish food as the main option.
Hi just stayed in the Hotel with my work they upgraded me free to full sea view was really kind of them loved the roof top bar great chill area food I felt the same as you they need to work on it room was beautiful just have to say as a women who likes to do hair and make up the only place I could do this was in the bathroom stood up shame really as such a big space for the TV that I hardly used as had the amazing sea view its very clean and staff are very good its a nice hotel and I agree with you I feel its a good price for what you get to be honest if I had not come with work I would have just booked breakfast only as nice places to eat out on a evening in the old town..
Just subbed after discovering your no nonsense straight forward reviews which we enjoy. Keep up the great work !👍👍
Absolutely love everything about this hotel, it's beautiful. Thanks once again for a great video. Also congratulations Paul on 5k subscribers 🎉🎊
Thanks so much!
Cracking looking hotel...you looked like a big kid in a sweet shop when you saw room and balcony lol.. Thanks for the vlog, very much appreciated 👍
Totally agree with you about prices .. .. we stopped in Riveria Beach hotel .. £710 half board in December.. for 2 people .. . Like you .. go to York for weekend. Cost you more than that .. .
Having never stayed in Benidorm you have given me a great insight into the various options available. Thank you for your vlogs. Will be visiting very soon. xxx
Enjoy watching you,it’s good to see places it helps us on finding a nice hotel , location , do you go on your own all the time ?
Most of the time
Was shocked at the price. Was expecting it to be near 200 for the location/room/food. Great video 👍
Excellent report. Would love to visit, and will soon.
Loved the video once again Paul, hotel looks beautiful but that view 😍 keep up the good work and enjoy. X
Thanks so much
I do like the look of the hotel. I agree some of the foods need a label. Personally I do enjoy having food local to the country.
The price is really good for half board, single occupancy. I could get a room for 91 stirling let alone food as well here in Ireland.
I assume your videos are not published in chronological order. I cant keep up, one day your are in Poland, the next in Benidorm, back in Poland and then in Torremolinos....and now back in Benidorm. But I love them all. Keep up the good work !
The channel is called who knows where sometimes I don't even know where I'm going adds to the fun
Love it
I think it's a good idea to put tops on cups so no dust or bugs get in them especially in the cupboard ❤❤
😊looks lovely room fab could have mentioned air con take it they had it as very important in summer 😮
Certainly nothing wrong with that place they probably just need to do a bit of fine tuning after all it's not long been open. The price is certainly not out of the way for what your getting for your money you can pay more than that to stay at a travel Lodge and you wouldn't get 3 meals in the price great video looking forward to the next one.
Yes I certainly would want to know what I'm eating , at least if food is labelled you know what the dish is . It looks a beautiful hotel, with stunning sea view .
Looks a fantastic hotel its now on my bucket list.
After a weekend looking after family your wonderful video was great for some me time! Wow what a beautiful hotel and a balcony view like heaven, bliss🌞. I'd say the bed's a queen and it's a bolster my Nana had them. Stunning decor and all high spec. Food I saw looked healthy and fresh yes they need a today's menu. That price is a great deal. Thanks Paul ❤️
Lovely hotel,love your videos they make me feel like I’m back there lol
Glad you enjoyed
Looks really nice hotel apart from the evening meal look forward to your next video.
Beautiful hotel lovely views I agree with you paul food should be labelled so you no wot it is a great price for the night as well
Beautiful room and hotel ❤
Barceló Benidorm,really good hotel and enjoyed your video ,stayed this last Dec ,beautiful roof terrace
Hi the hotel opened first week in October 2024 only know as was there on the opening day thats what drew me to wanting to stay there would of loved to have sea view room but got side view still lovely though
Hi just back from that hotel it is amazing was 4th floor side sea view as front rooms 7th floor are sooooo expensive we only stayed there as got a good deal was looking for September but far far to expensive can go to thailand for same price for two week
Brilliant . Benidorm great but too old now to enjoy it but love it and would love to stay there again. All happy memories so just Enjoy.
Gorgeous 😁❤️ I want to stay there 😂👍 enjoy your videos and tours that you do of different hotels 🏨 and I’d say that was a pretty good price for this hotel and especially from a Blackpool lass 😁 look forward the next one 👍Pauline from Blackpool living in Canada 🍁
Glad you like them!
Never been to Benidorm ( always go to Majorca) but we are thinking of a change for next year, so watching with interest to see which are the best hotels, like this one but might be a bit pricey when we go end of July ( I work in a school).
4 more 4star hotels coming in the next few videos different prices
Lots in Mallorca being upgraded.They seem to only want the big spenders on the Island!
Better clientele
Paul that is one super, super hotel honestly. I would definitely stay there, and costly maybe, but that is the price you pay for excellance, first class. It has everything you need in terms of activities. I thought your room was 'magnifico'. I really can't fault it to be perfectly honest, and how could you. Its brand new and purpose built. I really could not find any fault at all. Its obviously been built with ultra-luxury in mind. And those views what more could you ask for.
Exactly they just need to tweak the food then it would be 100%
The BARCELO Hotel used to be the old SELOMAR .....a cracking Hotel ! was shut and rundown for years and years, lovely spot and not to Expensive! was a good 3 star if I remember right.
The family who owned it argued for years what to do with it.Years ago it was sold with so many supplements for the views.I used to sell it my clients
Hi I loved the hotel but just me nit picking 😂am not keen on no doors on the wardrobe and no draw space to put personal items in and meditation .noticed none in bedside table,I really enjoy your videos x
I've never been to Benidorm I'll have to give it a try some time soon. I do travel to Thailand Pattaya and if you want cheap hotels that's the place to visit best 4 stars hotel they charge per room instead of per person. I've just returned from a 4 week holiday stayed in a 4 star hotel cost me £1,100 included Breakfast.
I've been to Thailand 5 times and love it
Bèen several times. Would stay where you were 1st night .looking forward to next 4😊
Paul, that hotel is 😍. Fantastic camera and editing skills. Oh just sooo therapeutic to have that view and the sun. By the way you can still purchase bolster pillows, great for reading in bed. Great value really, can image rather pricey in high season. Yes I would want to know what I'm being served. Can I please ask, do you have heating in the room?Keep em coming 😊
Yes Aircon cold or hot
Hi Paul , I was so impressed with the Barcelo Hotel, after watching your video, I book to go next month, booked a front sea view , so thank you .
Can you remember the breakfast opening time , I'm an early riser 😊
Cheers
7am till 10.30 I think they all roll into one when you do so many hotels at once lol
@@whoknowswhere thanks Paul 👍
I always stay at the Venus or calypso. Food always good. Don’t think I’ll change to Barcelo any time soon!
I have stayed at both, but the Venus for me.
i love benidorm, ive stayed in alicante too both are ace.
Wow 👌 love it the pool id stay thete all day heven 😅
That hotel looked so good, yes I would stay at this hotel. Mind you it's a brand new hotel, you wouldn't expect to see things wrong broken. Thanks for the video.
Congratulations paul on your 5k subcribers well deserved keep doing wot your doing 👏
Great review again Paul. Food looked tempting. 😊
I've stayed in hotels all over Spain, but have to agree with the very strange food combinations in some.
Great review by the way.
Wooooooow! Beautiful hotel. Great room, amazing location. Loved views from your room. Food looked top quality. Loved it ❤
Congratulations Paul 5k beautiful hotel just my type of hotel food looked lovely thanks for sharing definitely agree food should be labelled don't think it was a bad price Paul ❤❤
That’s a great shawer ❤ room fine beach outside great
Congratulations 🎉 on 5k Paul, well deserved!❤️
Thank you so much Deanna xxx
@@whoknowswhere A testament to all your hard work Paul xxx
We were there last week Paul not in hotel (we in Port Benidorm). Checking hotel over from promenade your right side rooms not the best for views. Liked your comment about cost comparison with Blackpool hotel,spot on! B
Once again, another great vlog, I do love your vlogs ❤️ . Cracking hotel right on the beach that would do me lovely . I would certainly look this up if I go to Benidorm again.
I’ve just booked this hotel for the 17th February for a week Bed & Breakfast. Looks a beautiful clean modern hotel can’t Waite . Thanks for the review
Hope you enjoy it!
Very good hotel really lovely Paul yes they need labels on the food Paul your room was lovely great video very nice sea view 😊
Lovely hotel. Great sea views.
Very nice ❤❤❤ I love the walkiin shower
I stayed in this hotel when it was Selomar amazing location
Definitely need to give this place a go,😊
But then you need to suggest that to them so that they will know what your concerns are
and they can rectify it.
Barcelo are a massive company spread across Spain I am surprised that they hadn't sent in a team sort out teething issues its Benidorm they must know what the clientele wants unless they want to keep that Spanish feel but most clientele whilst I was there where UK tourists
Brilliant videos, well done on 5k subs. :)
Great video as always 👍 I love Benidorm. We like Hotel Mediterraneo across from Benidorm Palace.
We looked inside a few weeks ago & thought we’d stay sometime. But the bathrooms put me off. They look lovely, but I just don’t get the fascination with having no door. We once stayed in the Versace in Australia & that was the same so we’ll give this one a miss.
Yes, I remember the bolsters.
Liked the hotel very much. I would stay there. Looking forward to the next videos to compare.
Great video thank you 🥳
I am new to this I’m really enjoying your videos.
Welcome onboard
Think its an Emperor Bed😊
Ambassador playa looks okay and food selection is great but the location of the hotel Barcelo steals it for me. I haven’t been back to Benidorm since 1969 so I will notice a change.
Looks a lovely hotel, the food and price is good, never fancied benidorm mainly due to the rowdy reputation it has (drunken brits) causing problems, and questionable entertainment (sticky vicky or daughter) would hate that, but out of season it has a lovely coastline and your room looked ideally situated, thanks for sharing Paul ❤
diane dont believe all what you read and hear about benidorm
Hi dianne,i use 2 think the same n my hubby tried 2 get me there for years but i wouldnt go because i thort it looked a shit hole but my god was i wrong😂 i av now fell in love with the place and this year will be my 3rd time ;theres so much more 2 it than the strip ,the old town is beautifull you should give it a try xx
I used to think the same but it's a place for everyone . Beautiful walks ..lovely bars.. restaurants. Just keep away from the rowdy bars...the old town is beautiful too 👍
@@randomgameplay9950 spot on 👍
Great review! I actually booked this hotel before I saw your review of it but now I’m as excited as you seemed when you checked in. I’m staying in May so the prices were more. Hopefully the dinner has improved but not too concerned. Question, are in room safes usually charged for use in Benidorm? You keep saying it’s free. You’re the second person I’ve heard mention this. Coming from Australia I don’t understand why they would charge a fee.
Most are not all
at one time you had to hire all safes in Spain
Nice looking hotel, lovely views from the balcony & reasonably priced not sure on the food thou but would definitely consider it next time but we're all booked for Easter in the ambassador playa 2🍻👍
Check out my Ambassador review
Already have & can't wait to get back to benidorm, it was our first time last year stayed in the sol clean, tidy & staff were polite just needs a bit of updating 🍻🍻🍻 @whoknowswhere
YES!! 100% stay there...
Yes I would price is good
Gorgeous hotel, great video enjoyed the watch. Looking forward to more 😀
Glad you enjoyed it
Will try next year
Beautiful view ❤
Stopping here now same room it’s fab
Is it as I said?
Yes it is…not had evening meal so can’t comment on that…it’s the best hotel in Benidorm…in my opinion..
Hi, brilliant videos!! I search youtube for Benidorm videos and yours are fantastic, hopefully you ca do more in the future. Content is excellent and the way you present is brilliant and entertaining. Keep it up and I'll look on Facebook for you and give you a follow.
Welcome onboard , so glad you like the videos I always give truthful reviews of what I experience
reall good review very informative cheers
Great video!
Amazing hotel great blog Paul ❤xxxxxx
Going to Benidorm in may first time staying at the Rio park hope it’s ok half board.
Its a nice hotel buts its at the top of a path known as the yellow brick road be careful late at night do not walk it alone, its renowned for muggings, taxi or walk the main roads x
I'm staying there in July
Please let us know. My husband is gluten free is it labled. Thanks x
What a view.Great hotel
Great videos, very informative and detailed thanks.
very honest review,thanks
Hi paul ,it looks a nice hotel but i think your right about the food issue as ive watched another vlog on it and they said the same thing ,which hotel would you prefer that 1 or the ambassador xx
for board only and location this one but overall customer service Ambassador but watch out more to come
@@whoknowswhere will do paul thanks👍
Just come across your channel and I am enjoying the content. The hotel Riudor nice but awful location for me anyway but the hotel Barcelo looks pretty nice and can’t fault the location.
Welcome onboard
The bed might be an emperor bed but I'm not too sure
Extra large for bears ❤
Great video, did this hotel use to be the Selomar Paul.?
I'm not sure I think it was before the fire
It was the Selomar left empty by the family who owned it arguing what to do with it.
Selomar, stayed there in 1974 4 star hotel then.
All food should be labelled up with allergy information where required and you don’t see it a lot but in my opinion an all you can eat buffet style meal should always have this
Deffo stay there looks amazing. Xx
Looking for a long weekend stay half board end of November near the Av. Dr. Severo Ochoa, 3, 03500 Benidorm, any recommendations.
Hi Philip as you probably know I never recommend any accommodation based on ec
Hi Philip I never recommend any accommodation based on everyone is different and what I like maybe not for you, all I do is show hotels through the lens of a camera then it up to you
Looks a lovely hotel. Its a yes from me.
I think the bed is a queen bed 😂
😅have they got a charging and storage for scooter .? Xx
😊
Didn't see any scooters at all at this hotel
