Hotel Resort El Montico - Singular's Hotels

This is a strange place. The corridors take light saving to an extreme level so it keeps you in the dark most of the time. The bathroom has no private toilet. Only an Olympic athlete can get in the bath and shower. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The food was indifferent. The check in took forever. The barman clearly has no love for the job.

Very expensive, lovely looking hotel but no substance, horrible attitude from the restaurant manager, good honesty from the workers though! Fridge/freezer in room totally iced so couldn’t use it. Okay but not worth the money. Steak was horrible, really bad quality, hardly cooked, other food was expensive and okay, nothing more. The waiter knew exactly that it wasn’t right, took it back and said he would change it (I asked for a vegetable dish instead). However, I then discovered that the manager would not change it as we had tried to eat some of the meat and ate a few chips and peppers. He said he would come back with a solution but did not so we just left. He at least managed to take the steak of the bill, which was still the most expensive bill for the entire holiday (and we had eaten very well elsewhere for half the price). They still included bread etc., which we hadn’t asked for and hadn’t arrived anyhow. The swimming pool was okay, the location good as a halfway between Alicante region and Asturias right next to the motorway. We had to wait a couple of hours for the room, and we had arrived after check-in (around 1610 and it had opened at 1500). We were given a drink but it would have been nice to have had the room as we have young children, who had been travelling for many hours.
