Hotel Tres Torres - Santa Eulalia del Rio, Spain     

I was really pleased with this hotel. The staff were fantastic, there were really welcoming and were very happy to help with things like bus times or good places to eat. The room was really spacious with plenty of wardrobe space and although we weren't at the front of the hotel we still had a good view of the harbour and we got loads of sun on the balcony. Everywhere in the hotel was really clean. The pool was really nice although some people were naughty and reserved sun beds then wandered off for the day - very inconsiderate! The only negatives with this hotel (and these didn't spoil the stay) was the air con - it goes off after an hour and 30 min, which was quite annoying as you would wake up in the night cooking and have to get out of bed to turn it on again. The cleaners started early in the morning and you could hear them moving beds etc. I sleep with ear plugs and it still woke me up. Santa Eulailia was lovely, the hotel is right next to the harbour, where there are some fantastic restaurants. You can walk easily everwhere in the town. The buses were great, they ran on time and they were mega cheap! Overall a great hotel, and lovely place!!!

We have just returned from a wonderful holiday at the Tres Torres. We arrived late in the evening after a delayed flight and were given a very friendly welcome at reception and asked to go to the dining room where a plated up meal was waiting for us. This was a most unexpected surprise. When we got to our room we discovered that we had a king-sized bed (not all rooms have these) and that we had a balcony view overlooking the marina. This was a real bonus as we had not paid extra for this! The food at the Tres Torres is excellent, the best we have had anywhere. Both at breakfast and the evening meal there was plenty of choice and it was constantly replaced. The tables in the dining room are usually set for two people and the head waiter in the dining room, Vincente, is lovely. All the staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. The one downside was the swimming pool area which is quite small and therefore does not have a huge amount of sunbeds. Because of this some guests were getting up at silly times and reserving them with towels and then disappearing for the rest of the morning. I was aware of this before we booked after looking at earlier reviews but this did not bother us as Santa Eulalia has two lovely clean beaches and we tended to use them. We preferred the second beach as it has more of a breeze and there is a very nice beach bar – Four Pines (Pinos) where we used to go and have a drink. If you walk just past there you come across the river (which is the only one in the Balereacs) and can walk along the landscaped river bank. Santa Eulalia itself was much larger that I thought it would be and is very pretty. The locals are very friendly and there is a community feel to the place as they live in centre and take a pride in their town. We used to have a drink and a bite to eat at the Royalty and the Con Cosmi which are on opposite corners of the street by the main square. Unfortunately you do get quite a stench of petrol fumes here at rush hour as there is a lot of traffic, but avoid this time and it is nice to sit and watch the world go by. We also went to Nicos in the town centre which is a smart local caf?/bar. They made us feel very welcome. Vincente can tell you where this. We used the ferry a couple of times but found this rather expensive but the buses are cheap and the bus station is just up the street from the Royalty. Overall, we had a very good holiday and we would definitely recommend the Tres Torres.
