    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating

    With tropical gardens, bloom-framed pools and a tranquil spa, the Barcelo Asia Garden Hotel & Thai Spa offers a taste of the Orient.

    Coral-coloured buildings, Babylon-esque hanging gardens, and koi ponds spotted with lily pads make this place feel like it’s been lifted from the Far East. Rooms are dressed in Japanese-style neutral tones, and even come with kimonos.

    The property is set at the foot of the Sierra de Cortina mountains, and its hillside position offers widescreen views of the ocean. When you want to explore, the nearest beaches are a half-hour walk, or a short cab ride, away.

    Due to health and safety reasons, mobility scooters aren't allowed in the hotel. You might be able to park and charge your mobility scooter outside the hotel though. If you have a Blue Badge, we'd recommend you take it on holiday with you. Manual and electric wheelchairs are fine to use inside and out.

    Beautiful property but there is work to do!
    12 Sep , 2018 Jordy D, 188636
    First of all - the property is absolutely amazing. Beautiful gardens, cosy restaurants and lovely rooms with all the comfort you need. However - when you are Leading Hotels of the World; it made me very sad to see how basic the breakfast area is; very busy “all-you-can-eat” buffet which made me feel I was in a completely different “relax” hotel then where I checked in. It was very clear that they were understaffed at the breakfast section since all the tables around me stayed dirty during my entire meal. Please review the breakfast concept as this is not in line with the brand of the hotel. Furthermore - the Thai Spa is the real disappointing area of the hotel. The facilities are very basic as you have only a swimming pool and steam area which is only available if you book a treatment. I went to the reception for a booking of a treatment and it was sad to hear that I had to wait for 2 days before there was an availability - really? Leading Hotels? The spa and gym are very dated and I think a complete renovation is more than necessary. The reception area of the spa looks like a mess and looks cheap. The staff at the hotel is amazing! They are so friendly and no question is too much for them. The check in went very smooth. Last thing - the water of the swimming pools is not heated in September which made the water ice cold sometimes. Only in the later afternoon it became a bit warmer due to the sun; step it up with the wellness facilities; build some jacuzzis in the swimming pools; some lounge music around the swimming area and it will be amazing - but as I said in the title of this review - there is work to do! Overall - it is a relaxing environment but the brand which you would expect from the website is not matching with reality.
    A stunning hotel

    I was only here for a couple of days on business but what a beauty this place is. With gardens all around this feels far away from the nearby Benidorm bustle. The room was lovely, the food we had was very nice and the foyer and gardens were every bit as tranquil and calming as you’d expect. The only downside was the aircon was a bit inconsistent depending on where you were - no problems in the room but some of the corridors and public areas were a bit toasty where doors were left open.
    Just what we needed - lovely!

    So, we’re only 5 days into our 12 nights here but I’m going to review now as I’m happy that we have a rounded view already. Let me start by saying that the hotel, it’s rooms and the grounds are absolutely beautiful and kept immaculately clean. This is a bigger complex than my husband and I would normally choose, and despite being terrified by the ‘Benidorm’ location we have been very pleasantly surprised. The location: it’s a good 10-15 minute (18 - 20 Euro) taxi into Benidorm, which had a very nice seafront for a walk during the day .... yes, it’s built up and has some ‘British’ places, but is well worth a visit. The hotel: if you choose not to venture out, you’ll be fine. We are here in early September and there is no sunbed issue. Other than they are really close together in some places (but I expect that is in response to the earlier reviews asking for more to be available). Pools are plentiful and huge. Rooms are big and serviced to a high standard twice a day - the chocolates in a big plastic ball are lovely! Eating and Drinking: Breakfast buffet is lovely, and I’m very fussy. There is a lovely outdoor terrace area, and I think if you come about 9-9.30 it’s the best time to avoid any crowds. We have so far eaten in Palapa during the day - expensive, but portions big enough to share - food lovely. Our favourite so far is the Thai restaurant Koh Samui ... again, portions big so don’t be afraid to share, food excellent. Overall verdict: To be able to get here in just a few hours from the UK is a total treat. Staff are wonderful (thank-you to George for lovely service during the day by the pool), property stunning, great food and drink .... yes, you’re a bit far from anywhere else, but who cares...... just lie back, relax and enjoy! (P.s. if you’re feeling a bit lethargic, there are free exercise classes every day to wake you up ...I did a lovely Pilates class in the garden yesterday afternoon).
    Paradise hotel and gardens

    As an airline crew I stayed in the best hotels around the world. I would give this place 6* if I could, absolutely stunning hotel with gardens like you see on postcards from Bali, loved staying there, hoping to be back
    For ultimate relaxation

    Since I visited here for business conference I didn’t have much time to spent at pool etc. But enough tough to notice awesome garden and magnificent pool area. Room was luxurious, clean and tidy. Especially bathroom made me smile - so pretty it was. I hope someday I could go there for a holiday.
