Vacationing with teenagers.
Previously, they always chose simpler hotels, and when they saw the price in the Citadel (at the level of more budget hotels), they did not think for a long time and were ready for some restrictions and cuts.
I won't repeat the food. Regulars of the Citadel will obviously be disappointed, but we were pleased: the choice is not too big, but everything was delicious for us. The only complaints we have - to the sweet table and fruit. These positions are clearly lacking at least some diversity.
The main and undoubted plus of the hotel is its atmosphere, unique charm and stunning views. Who cares - one hundred percent hit!
Families with children (especially with prams), haters of stairs - read and think for yourself. . .
You should not count on the royal lagoon either - in my opinion it is "nothing".
I advise you to take the choice of the room responsibly even before arriving at the hotel. I sent an email with my "wishlist" a week before the trip. As a result, they gave a room that met all the wishes.
And now the characteristics of the cases.
No. 8, No. 7: belong to the deluxe category with a large area. These are the furthest buildings from the sea. In blocks 7 and 8, the view of the sea is a view of the roofs of the buildings in front, and already further - a strip of the sea horizon. To restaurants, the beach, swimming pools, it is the furthest from them.
No. 6: View from the balcony - the sea, but the coastline is not visible. Instead, there is the roof of building No. 5. Nice, but no more.
No. 5: Very long, so if the number is at the beginning, then it is close to the infrastructure, and if it is at the end, it is far away. But it is worth paying special attention to this case. View from the balcony to the sea (no barriers other than palm trees). The sound of the waves is heard. In the 5th building, privacy is felt. There are fewer people in that area than in the “center”. Plus, there are many flowering trees, palm trees... But the central part of the hotel (pier) is not visible from it.
No. 4. "Our" Corps. A full view of the sea, but also the central part of the hotel with swimming pools, a pier, lagoons... Magical beauty! Here is the sea, but the feeling of civilization is present (unlike the 5th). The hotel is lit up at night.
In the 4th building it is not as quiet as in the 5th, although there is not much noise either. Another building number 4 is closer to restaurants than 5.
The 3rd floor of building No. 4 (numbers for 42**) has direct access to the Palm pool.
The best beach is just at buildings No. 4 and No. 5.
No. 3. Part of it is located immediately behind the 4th building. And the other part is further from the pool, closer to the main building, above the 2nd building. The location is nothing, but further to the sea. The view from the balconies by the pool is on it, not on the sea. Walking to the beach is further than from building 5 or 4, and closer to the restaurant.
No. 2. Newly refurbished rooms with tiny or no balconies. In the evening - you are in the center of nightlife: music from the marina and from the disco. But all restaurants, cafes and bars are within walking distance.
No. 1 - above the central restaurant.
In general... read, think and drive boldly. The citadel is worth it!
