Helios - Blankenberge, Belgium 

j'ai séjourné un w-end avec mon amoureux.Le niveau positif c'était le petit déjeuner qui était exellent avec même du saumon fumé...impressionnant...cependant nous avions choisi cet hotel car il y avait un jaccuzzi et quand nous sommes arrivés il était en panne "pour causes irréversibles".vraiment décue, en plus la personne qui tenait l'accueil s'est bien tenue de nous le dire

The hotel itself is well located and the rooms are nice with the exception of dirty bath grouting which was not inviting enough to take a bath. We also booked a garage space which was very small but I was confident that my car was secure and would not be scratched and there was some SUVs there although they were parked very tightly! The food in the Hotel was good but we did feel that the buffet breakfast was not representative of the pictures that were advertised in the Hotel. There was a distinct lack of warm food, the 1st day the hot plate was only half full with some scrambled eggs with sliced chipolata on one side, the 2nd day we had room service which was fine apart from a supplement for having some eggs, the 3rd day when we arrived about 9.30am most of the cold and hot dishes were empty. After mentioning this to the waitress it took 30 minutes for everything to be replenished and at 10.00am there were some very hungry people circulating round the buffet!! At 10.00am the buffet normally closes but the whole room was full! We also tried their highly rated restaurant on the Saturday night but were quite unimpressed with the experience. When we arrived a very dapper gentlemen greeted us at the door and asked us for our order 3 times within the space of 5 minutes which since it was freezing cold in the restaurant could have been a good thing but no after we ordered the service stopped. We arrived at 8.30pm and the main course arrived at 10.00pm and since it was so cold the time passed very slowly. The food produce was of a very high quality if a little bit tasteless. I had to fight for the true highlight of the meal for me, the gorgeous dessert of ice cream with hot melted Belgian chocolate, as the waiter made my choice for me thinking I was on the same menu as my girlfriend. He did not want to take the proposed dessert back and I had to be a little more assertive than I would have liked and was thrust the menu in my face! He was later apologetic but again it is quite expensive and I did n't find it very client friendly.
