Our 2 week stay was definitely not up to the standard of our previous 3 stays at this hotel. The Royal Level has most definitely deteriorated in the standard of food and definitely the service at the Royal Level Pool was extremely poor on times . The Royal level costs a lot of money and although we have booked to return in January 2027 for a winter break if we find that it is still the same as it was on this visit it will most definitely be the last time. Also the Italian restaurant which we visited twice durning our stay was most disappointing the food was not good and the service was awful.
We are currently part way through our third visit. The hotel itself is still lovely, the rooms are great and the staff have been excellent, but the Royal Level offering has declined significantly since our previous stays. It is also worth noting that some of the more recent reviews on this page appear to relate to the Breeze Bar or events at the hotel rather than the Royal Level experience, as the QR codes provided for these direct guests to the Royal Level Tripadvisor page.
The biggest change is the dining experience. Previously, Royal Level had a gorgeous sea-front buffet with à la carte options, with food that was fresh, warm and more refined. This has now moved to the old Italian restaurant location. There are still some à la carte options, but if you don’t fancy those, you are eating from an area within the main buffet alongside all other guests. We have found the food noticeably less fresh, with dishes often cold and not to the standard of the previous Royal Level buffet, which was a real highlight. Other returning guests we’ve spoken to feel the same.
We booked based on our previous experiences and what Royal Level had traditionally offered, so we feel guests should have been informed of such a significant change before arrival. Had we known, we would have made a different choice of hotel.
We are also at Barceló’s highest membership level, but there has been no acknowledgement or benefit this time. Previously, here and at other Barceló hotels, we have received cava and chocolates or a similar welcome gesture.
After three visits, the difference is very noticeable. The hotel remains lovely, but the separate pool is now the only real Royal Level benefit and, while lovely, it is no longer enough to justify the additional cost.
Samual was very informative, funny and very knowledgeable on the local wines. We had a lot of fun learning and tasting in a relaxed atmosphere
We always upgrade on all our all inclusive's usually worth it..At barcelo not worth it. We arrived at about 1 30 checked in but unable to get into our room, supposed to be able to get to room at 3pm . Eventually after complaining several times finally got in at 4pm. The hotel gave us a bottle of cava as apology however being royal all-inclusive we could get at anytime .we were told we would be shown to our room which we was, but the cases were dumped in room, and not shown how to use any facilities , air con, mini bar rules, etc. The accommodation was ok but was completely the other end of the complex to the royal restaurant and royal pool. I had to send a meal back in the royal restaurant as it was cold and was told it was a cold dish which it definitely should not have been.The service in the royal restaurant was not good, never got asked if we wanted a second drink at all breakfast or dinner. Very disappointed at the dolce vita restaurant, ROYAL and yet we were only entitled to a rushed set menu. ROYAL and yet mini bar was chargeable. Noone ever asked how things were throughout our whole week In all other chains if you upgrade you pay the money but get the service. Here you pay the money but do not get the service or facilities and no one appears to care
Kind staff and amazing food! Thank you for the great service, Loredana! We had a good food experience!
