Hotel Cleopatra Palace

Adam Thomas

We stayed at the Cleopatra for 5 nights recently after having moved to the hotel from a noisy air BnB. Upon booking and check in we had expressed a desire to have a quiet room. We were even sold an upgrade to make sure we got a quiet area. Unfortunately these requests were ignored as well as the upgrade fee making no difference as we were put in a room overlooking the Hard Rock which was playing very loud live music until midnight. Upon returning to our room after dinner we immediately realised it would be impossible to sleep while the music was going on. We went to reception to ask about changing rooms only to be met with a response of “you’ve booked a hotel in the party area so what do you expect”. Whilst I understand the sentiment and the lady did proceed to try and help this felt like a very rude comment to make considering we had done all we could to get a quiet room and there was no warning on their website to say noise would be an issue late into the night. The lady on reception showed us another room which was a downgrade but no mention of a refund for the fee I had already paid earlier in the day. Once challenged she went back in her previous comment about not having any quiet rooms and said we could move but it would have to be at 3pm the next day. Once the music stopped at midnight that was just start as then you had loud drunk people, staff smashing bottles and deliveries throughout the night. Once we did move it was a lot better but still issues with various noise throughout our stay. The hotel itself is a little strange as common areas are well maintained but the rooms are dated and need a bit of a refresh. The breakfast was ok. Nothing special and we were a little put off by the presence of cockroaches climbing near the fountain and several dead ones floating in the water. Overall this isn’t somewhere I’d stay again as in general I don’t see why you’d spend a decent amount of money on a hotel that is so noisy.

This was our 3rd visit, last visiting in 2021. We noticed back then that refurb work was required and expected this to be carried out 5 years later. This is not the case. The main reception and atrium appear quite nice but there’s many observations we made in and around our room: - Despite reporting a faulty tv remote control it wasn’t fixed 100% - The card receptacle controlling power in the room was loose on the wall. - The bathroom door has been soaked and swollen and very unsightly - Drawers that don’t obviously close properly. - The once attractive chandelier type lights in the atriums around the hotel are now a bit shabby looking. One of these was dismantling slightly when wind was blowing in from the pool area and dropping small pieces onto the floor below. - our balcony door wasn’t initially locking. This was repaired. - The hotel (as others have noted) is quite dated in various ways. - our room was very near the Hard Rock Cafe and music from there was quite loud until ~11:30 Good points are: - Location - Cleaners and all other staff do an exceptionally job. - Bed and bedding was very comfortable - A safe is supplied and free of charge. Breakfast was excellent as was the music from the charming pianist Erika. We’d love to return but not until a significant upgrade /refurbishment is carried out.

We stayed in early July. Wonderful hotel and staff. Everyone so friendly and amenable. Had to move rooms on night 2 due to a leak in the shower but staff upgraded us within the hour. Hotel close to all u need just mind the rocks in the sea (they hurt). We will definitely be back some time in the future. One minor, the hotel needs more day time activities or music around the pool

This was the third time we stayed at this hotel. The last time was three years ago, and back then we were quite satisfied. Unfortunately, almost everything has changed for the worse. We definitely won't be coming back, and the only real reason to choose this hotel now is its excellent location. The first thing we noticed was the extremely unpleasant smell in the room. It smelled like old, damp, deteriorated wood, and the odor was very strong. The shower had several problems. The water pressure was very low, and the water temperature kept suddenly changing from hot to cold. There were also many broken or damaged items in the room. The shower by the spa pool was out of order, the spa clock wasn't working, and the steam sauna was also broken. The spa itself felt abandoned and was nothing like it was three years ago. Overall, we're very disappointed. Despite the wonderful memories we had from our previous stays, we will never stay at this hotel again.

The hotel is really really great, altough the rooms are outdated. For the breakfast they have a lot of choices, natural juices, coffee, fruits, etc. Gabriela is a really great maid, she took care of our room for our entire stay. The staff is really friendly and they will help you in any situation. You have a place where can you buy tickets for excursions and for Siam and Loro Parque. The location of the hotel is really good, you have the beach right in front of the hotel. They have parking spots, but not so many. Also, the pool is big and they have a lot of sunbeds!
