HG Lomo Blanco

Ideally located in quiet part close to old town as well as the *****. Two pool areas (one with shallow kids pool) and food available by larger pool -also small dining area just past reception (good selection for breakfast). Pool table for older kids and small playground for toddlers onsite. Very clean complex and friendly staff. Fully equipped kitchenette and lovely powerful shower in bathroom which I loved! Close to lots of shops and restaurants, but relatively steep stroll downhill to beach, fine for us but could be a workout with buggy or if any mobility issues. There was on street parking outside if hiring a car. Lots of taxis around if not! We enjoyed exploring the local areas on foot after a day of sightseeing…some great restaurants close by in the old town. No air con in the apar**ent that we could see (but we didn’t ask either as we stated at end January so 24 Celsius and pleasant indoors and out) - recommend checking if going at peak times. Pools weren’t heated but nice for a dip- clean and lifeguards on duty at both between 9:30 and 6pm. Relaxing short break at lovely complex, we’ll be back!

First off, this is a great hotel.. no doubt. It is clean, has all the amenities one would expect(and probably more than closer to the beach hotels have), great rooms, and friendly staff. We arrived by taxi, €25 from the airport. The room wasn't ready but we were very early. They offered us a secure place to store luggage and a promise of a call to let us know when room ready(about an hour and half later). We had a 1 bed apar**ent, ground floor, 140, perfect. No noise at night-time, bedroom lovely and dark and cool. One pet hate on holidays is bad, cheap mattress...this doesn't. Really comfortable. Kitchenette had everything you would need on holidays, coffee maker, fridge and freezer, hob, toaster, and microwave. All looked new, and the place has been refurbished. The bathroom has a huge, powerful shower... no bath. Lots of light, space, proper towels, etc. Little patio area out front, caught the evening sun- perfect. And very close to pool, bar and restaurant. Don't love it when everything is a long walk away. There are 3 pools, but 1 is kinda the main one where everyone goes. The lil kids pool is small and perfect. Water is cold initially but grand once you are in. The pool side bar and cafe are ideal for snacks and lunch, etc. Reasonably priced very friendly staff. Haven't eaten in the restaurant as we tend to wander down the old or new town. But the menu looks great, and the interiors are gorgeous. They so kindly delivered a bottle of cava for my birthday, nice surprise. Yes, is isn't on the main ***** and is a lil walk away, but I like that! More peaceful. You can go left and climb stairs down to the ***** or go right and be at shopping centre and Old Town very quick. Will I recommend and more importantly return?? Absolutely. Some fab restaurants we ate in; La Cascada -steak house Mumbai Musala- indian Enjoy - Chinese La Lanterna Italian La Casa Parmigna italian

Lovely hotel, all facilities we needed, free WiFi, reasonable price for safe , water in the fridge to start us off, along with washing up starter pack. Comfortable beds, decent size fridge, and induction hob. Ironing board, etc . Staff very helpful and helpful and friendly, the food was really nice , breakfast was good. Pool was lovely, and we could get a sunbed on most days which is unusual. Nice toiletries in the bathroom, and a decent shower . Location was good, not too far from the beach and shopping/restaurants, just a bit of a hill to get down and back, but didn't bother us. I was celebrating a 60th birthday whilst staying, and came back to a bottle of pink processeco which was a lovely touch.. would definitely stay at lomo Blanco again and must say a big thank you to the reception team and the bar staff , all over and above service.

Rooms are a good size. We had a 2 bedroom apar**ent. The beds were comfy... The location is good and close to the main ***** and harbour. The staff are all very helpful and friendly. They were great with the children. The only negative I could find was no air conditioning in the rooms but we knew this before we booked and it wasn't a problem for us in May, fans are provided. We will be returning.

We’ve just arrived back from a weeks stay at the lomo Blanco and it was okay. We stayed in a block B room on the ground level right outside the quieter pool which was great though it was in need of updating… There was a nice wee patio area with seats and table that was kept clean. The one bed apar**ent was spacious. The kitchen was big enough with a decent sized small fridge& freezer, a microwave oven (which was a bit difficult to figure out) and 2 hob rings. The bedroom was big with very comfortable bed, large wardrobe and a safe. The bathroom was again a decent size. A fan was provided in the apar**ent which was needed as some days it felt hotter in the apar**ent than outside due to not a lot of air flow in the room. Our only real gripes about the place was the cleanliness of the room and the electricity. I know it’s a 3 star hotel and you’re not going to get all the bells and whistles which is absolutely fine, but I at least expect it to be clean… the shower was still covered in soap/shampoo from the last guest as it was all over the place and the grout was turning black due to the soap build up. I had brought some anti bacterial wipes with us and gave it a clean. The floors are laminate which is an easy clean but they weren’t cleaned during our stay and I’m not sure when they were last cleaned as looking at the edges at the doors, there defiantly was build up dirt and could do with a good scrub. It's just felt a bit grubby and forgotten about. When checking in we were told that housekeeping was 5 days a week which is absolutely fine but we only had our room “cleaned” 3 times and I use cleaned loosely… the cleaning consisted of emptying the bin and making the beds. The electrics is the apar**ent were a bit ropey. If you turned on the hob, it cut out all the electric in the apar**ent which just isn’t safe. We did report this to the reception on our check out as if you were doing self catering it would kinda defeat the purpose of not being able to use the kitchen hob! The hotel facilities are okay, there are 2 pools with the bigger one at block A having a wee kids pool attached to it. There is a pool bar serving sandwiches, pizza, ice cream, breakfasts, cocktails (€18 for 2 strawberry daiquiris) etc if you fancied something during the day and didn’t fancy to venture far. The hotel is at the top of a big hill but there are a large set of stairs that’s lead down to the main ***** (you come out at Linekers) so you’re there in about 5 minutes though if it was to rain, they would be really slippy and there is no handrail going down it. We tended to get a taxi back up at night which cost between €2.35 - €5 depending on how far along the ***** you had gone. There is a spar a 5 minute walk from the hotel if needed and you don’t fancy venturing to the bigger shop down the bottom of the hill. Overall it’s a good base to stay but they really need to up their cleaning as I don’t really want to come on holiday and feel the need to clean because of how

This hotel for a 2 star is actually very good, rooms are large and clean, the beds are soooo comfy slept really well, large wall in shower hot water at any time, cleaned daily, pool was warm so love to have a swim, pool area clean and tidy with plenty of beds and life guard, pool cafe had plenty of choice and the guys were friendly and funny 😊, all staff were happy and helpful, found out on the second day a short walk to the SOCO supermarket round the corner has a lift down to the street in no time your on the main ***** and beach 👍saves walking the hills!! Went to see friends as we've been several times before which was lovely, had some amazing food in restaurants not tried before, one in the old town is a carnivores delight highly recommend 👍, had a lovely rest and would definitely go back to this hotel again 😊😊👍

I liked the apar**ents very much. They were clean and we had a sea view from the balcony. Some of the furniture was dated and tatty but there were too many positives to worry about that. Beds were comfortable, shower pressure and hot water were really good. We hired the safe, 2euro a day. The cleaning lady was very attentive (however a little early in the morning for us) As lots of reviews say there is no air conditioning, however it’s not the end of the world, you are provided with a fan and have windows that open and everything. We weren’t in the peak season so I would imagine August temperatures might prove problematic with the lack of air conditioning. I have never booked a place without air conditioning, (I even have it at home in the UK) Overall the well placed apar**ents gave us a great place to lay our heads. We didn’t really use the pool area however I have seen reviews that say sun lounges are reserved early with towels. We walked past the pool every day and would have never struggled to get a sun bed.

Just back from a weeks holidays with my girlfriend and her friend and we had a great time at this hotel the staff were very friendly and funny the food at the pool bar good and the two pools are good it’s in a great location 10 minute walk to the beach and ***** and 10 minute walk to the shopping centre I would recommend this hotel
