The facilities are looking rather tired so it could do with a refurbishment but the sea location. Is excellent and the food was very well prepared by the pool. Salad was lovely & Chinese better then many restaurants... gym was ok but decor and garden could do with a facelift. Popular on Sunday with local people

So so experience

Finishing quality not so good, a/c broke and was not fixed when first reported had to report second time which led to switching rooms, when booking it was indicated that I will have beach front view but did not get it and when asked they said the info on hotels.com was not accurate. Staff were friendly and nice.

Very disappointed. Must have been an amazing hotel 10-15 years ago but now in a terrible state of repair. Reception area lovely but elsewhere tired with broken tiles and furniture and lack of upkeep. Food, when available, was. Good but service in some areas very slow. Staff very kind and friendly and made the stay okay overall.

This property is very scenic and staff is very helpful. A large area kept very clean and maintained. Pool is very well located and garden is nice. Breakfast is good with changing items daily. The property has two issues. The WiFi is not good in the rooms and is not reliable overall. The sound of room air conditioning in the room is on higher side.

Staying at the Golden Tulip was fantastic. Historic charm, delightful staff, delicious food. It is an old hotel that was much more grand in yesterday year. While aged, it could use a few upgrades (my bed was a bit lumpy) but all in all, charming and convenient and well worth the price.
