Review of Khaladia palace Rayhan by Rota...

We had a nice stay in this hotel. The pool is great and they have a small beach. The room was great (family room) with great views and a very comfortable balcony. The staff was very friendly and we had a great New Year party with a wonderful BBQ (and a very weird large screen with soccer on it...). There is a shop in the adjacent hotel that has everything you need to make your own breakfast if it is not included (prices are crazy see below) and you do not want to stand in line at rush hour times. There were several things that were not so great...this hotel has been discovered by package travel...so it is very busy in the holiday season and is suffering from the cheap resort habits, long lines for buffets (we did not eat in the hotel once), lots of people reserving beds at the pool before breakfast but only arrive two hours later (they have a policy against this but do not enforce it). Unless you have young kids and do not mind getting to the pool before 10 AM you will in many cases not have a spot. Prices for breakfast are completely crazy, 35 EUR (or more) pp if you do not pre-book. The price of the room was also crazy but that was mainly because we booked really late...so that is our own mistake. All in all we will likely look for a place that does not suffer from mass tourism yet...
