The deposits required are a bit absurd and the all inclusive doesn't really include alcohol. Only beer. Buy your ice cream by the pool too. Too many smokers

Another lovely holiday catching up with old friends & making new friends, the hotel is spotless lovely & clean the staff are fantastic, it’s a shame the food has taken a bit of a nose dive the food is not as good as it has been in other yrs, they used to cook fish & meat lunch & evening now they have been cooking either meat or fish on the chef grill!

Overall, it’s a nice hotel within walking distance to the beach, with friendly staff. Sandra, in particular, was very helpful during our stay. However, the shuttle service amenity described by the hotel is operated through a third-party company, which was not very reliable and made transportation somewhat inconvenient.

Great property and location, really good value for money.
The staff were really friendly and check in was speedy. Good sized room but would be great for a kettle or coffee machine. Some areas slightly dated but it has a lovely charm about it. Great experience in the bar area and the breakfast buffet was up there with the best I’ve ever experienced.
Would definitely recommend, add an iron and a kettle and would be 5 stars for me.

The overall experience was below average. The rooms were clean.

Some of the reception staff were not very friendly or welcoming. We felt like they did not care, just doing their bare minimum required with grumpy and serious face.
Interactions with staff sets a tone on the whole stay.
I must mention that the waiting and kitchen staff in general were kind.

Another thing, we were disappointed about is the food which wasn't great. Not many healthy options, lots of carbs and meat served was mostly processed and lacked quality. If someone likes seafood then this place is for them I suppose as there were many seafood options. There were not many options for non-seafood eaters like us. There was one instance where the chef from the cooking station served me chicken half cooked, raw inside. I pointed it out to the waitress but there was no action from them. For those unaware raw chicken might seriously poison you. That was off putting and after that we chose not to eat anything prepared at the cooking station.
Desserts weren't great either, most of it tasted like it was directly from the supplier, not worth the calories.

Just returned from an enjoyable week at this adults only hotel. Check-in and check-out was quick and easy. The staff are friendly and very hardworking and the hotel is very clean and rooms comfortable. We found the food tasty and well presented with lots of choice. At busy times there is sometimes a short wait for a table but staff show you to your table and plates are cleared away quickly and set up for the next diners. Never really had to queue for food like you do in alot of inclusive hotels. Bar staff served you quickly so no waiting to get drinks during the day or evening. The pool is clean and although not that big it was never that crowded. Sunbeds are parasols were popular so need to get there early. Would happily stay at the hotel again but didn’t like the resort of Calella that much.

Overall we enjoyed our second stay here, the all inclusive is really good if you don't mind only a slightly varied menu and the usual drinks. Staff were all polite and helpful, fun too! The spa is nice but the water in the jacuzzi could be warmer. Last year our room was in better condition and seemed cleaner than this year but you do get wear and tear.
The area feels safe and 5 mins from the beach with loungers/umbrella, there is a train that beeps about every half hour running alongside the beach but not annoying. Also check for festivals/Iron man as it gets very busy and loud on the street just next to the hotel. Fireworks were fab though! Some shops/bars/restaurants nearby and a few things to visit too.
All in all a great place to stay!

Not relaxing, would not recommend

The hotel can ‘host’ over 400 guests.

It has 26 poolside sun loungers, most of them broken.

It has 100 sun loungers on the beach.

If you’ve managed to get any sleep on your wooden mattress, you have to set your alarm and join the queues at 7.50 every morning to get a beach sun lounger (tickets dispensed at 8.30) or a pool spot (opens at 9).

This is not a way to start a holiday.

You can’t even make a tea or coffee in your room to take with you into the queue unless you bring/buy your own kettle, milk, tea
/coffee and mugs.

Feel like complaining? The staff response is very mixed. Some people actually trying to help, others look at you like you’re the problem. My wife was pregnant during our trip so after not sleeping for a night or two I asked for a refund which seemed to put the manager out.

Wouldn’t recommend the food for a pregnant, gluten-free person but for me it was okay. The restaurant area is cramped and loud with bright lights - no ambience at all.

This hotel is at best, a tired 3 star hotel. At worst, it’s a daily 30-40minute queue for a sun lounger on a crowded beach where you can’t get your all inclusive drinks, or a longer queue for a broken sun lounger where you can.

In the spirit of leaving a balanced review, the shower was good.

We left the hotel with 2 nights left in the booking having been offered a refund by Expedia, which they have since reneged on.

It was a lovely 4-star hotel, staff were welcoming and the communal areas, reception, bar etc were great. Clean rooms with working air con, comfy bed and balcony. We had a sea view (over/around the other hotels) and it is a 3 minute walk to the beach with free sun loungers for the hotel (get in early). Nice area to walk around, felt safe, and a well-kept promenade for evening strolls.
The all inclusive had a variety of food each day alongside the usual salad and chips and varying drinks (just check what is included).
It was a really nice place to spend our honeymoon, unfortunately we had to leave early due to a family emergency, which staff were very understanding about, so didn't get to try all the entertainment, spa facilities and see the sights. We will be back soon I hope.

Was not impressed with the superior room the ordianary rooms are just as nice. They didn’t look a bit like the photos. I gave up my bath for a dressing gown and slippers the photos showed tables etc. I never use the free toiletries anyway so the special toiletries were of no use. The tv only has 3 news channels and one music channel so wether it’s a posh one or the ordinary one it makes no difference. I will still be going back next year as usual but just booking the normal room and not bothering with upgrading for the extra money and no bath.

Terrible service - kitchen was not sure about what was vegetarian and what was not and served me non-vegetarian on the first day but luckily I spotted it early. The head person there was also quite moody with us just for asking what is vegetarian and in terms of hot food it was only chips but second day luckily there was some pasta too but mainly had to just eat the salad there. Their break was quite good. I think for a meat eater it is quite good with a lot of variety but they should also try accommodate vegetarians especially because we had asked before booking and even whilst checking in.

Reception on check-in the guy was a bit rude but the day after there were two ladies who were nice. On the first day we actually went to the hotel across the road to ask for question as their staff was nicer and much more helpful even if we were not staying there.

They like to charge for everything, even use of sauna which is ridiculous for a 4star. Water is not provided during dinner for half-board which doesn't make sense as it is provided for breakfast?

Not a 4 star hotel.

We arrived late evening, after waiting approx 20 mins in line,night receptionist, ( older man) couldn't find our booking, eventually, he gave us a room for the night, and asked the we contactwith reception in the morning. Don't know whose problem it was, but it was sorted out, we were given the same room for our stay.
Hotel needs a lot of attention, reception and immediate entrance look alright,but the rest is very tired looking , bed clothes quiet worn, our wash band basin was cracked.
Dining room was the strangest ever. I know it was a busy week for them, ( Ironman competition) but all food is not in line, it's in several different places in the dining room! And the really need to get someone that can cook an egg! And they ran out of cups!
All that said,after the first night, the staff were lovely, and hotel is perfectly situated, near beautiful beach, restaurants and lots of shops!
I would go there again, butI defiantly not a 4 star hotel, almost 3 star.

Standard airport hotel but check the aircon early!

Very close to T2 at Barcelona airport but be aware there are 3 terminals with a 10 minuted transfer by bus between T1 and T2/T3. So not really suitable if you are flying from T1. Hotel is modern and clean. The rooms are spacious and the king size beds are huge! The main failing is the staff. The Aircon in the room did not work meaning the we just could not get the temperature below 32 degrees. We rang reception twice and the solution offered was \"open the window\". Staying in a very busy airport hotel with the window open was even worse than trying to sleep in a puddle of your own sweat.

Good location, close to the beach, nice staff

Most of the staff was really friendly. The location is very good as it is very close to the beach and market/shops/restaurants.
There were activities available within the hotel but you have to inquire as you are not told in detail about them.
Variety of food was available with different menu everyday. It would be helpful if halal food and vegetarian options are made available. And these should be separate and clearly labelled.
The room was nice and made up everyday. The towels were quite thin and most of them passed their life.
Bathroom was OK but clearly needed maintenance and upgrade which could be a bit frustrating.
Overall good experience.
It is a nice area but its a pebble beach (near the sea water) which can be frustrating so better take a good pair of appropriate footwear or find a close by sandy beach.

Great food, rubbish pool area!!

We stayed in a family room, 2 teenage kids and me and my wife. Having always had a separate bedroom before, it was a little cramped and didn't leave much room for privacy, That aside, the room and Hotel generally was immaculately clean.

The main Hotel was also very clean and had plenty of seating in the bar and reception areas. Reception staff were friendly enough, but not very forthcoming with information to help or about trips.

Bar and restaurant staff were friendly on the whole, but one or two were a bit miserable, but did seem to work very long hours, so not always surprising under the circumstances. The restaurant was a bit like a cattle market sometimes with some very rude people and staff who didn't seem that interested in helping seat you. That said, the quality and variety of the food was generally very good. Fresh fish, grilled meats, casseroles, rice, pasta, salads and Spanish food making up a very good buffet style lunch and dinner with full English available every day.

All inclusive was generally good with a card system in place with which you could only get 2 drinks at a time.

The real let down was the small pool and pool area. The usual towel on sunbed problem exists with there not being enough room to sunbath or swim, though the beach is only 100m away.

Overall, a great little 'town' Hotel with a bit of noise after 12 if you face the pool side. Great food, clean Hotel and generally friendly staff who work very hard. If you need privacy, then book 2 rooms!

Fantastic Spain and Amaika

If you are coming from Barcelona Airport, there are 3 ways you can get to Calella:
a) Train - with 2 changes. From Barcelona to Sants(20 min), and Sants to Calella(1 hr). Cost about 3.5 Eur in total per person.
We took this option but I don't recommend this as it was quite hectic with kids ! It is almost 15 min walk from Barcelona Airport to the train station, and was quite tiring, and trains were busier. We were lucky we got a seat !
Get down at the Calella station, and you can walk down along the beach to get to the Hotel in about 15 min. But we took a taxi, cost only 6 Eur. Would recommend taking a taxi tho' if travelling with little ones.
b) Book Shuttle (recommended). We tried this on our departure day from Hotel Amaika to Airport, and certainly very good. The hotel booked this for us for 20Eur per person ( including kids ). You can get at a cheaper rate if booked early from the internet.
c) Take Taxi - Cost 120Eur one way.

If you are not staying for lunch, you can get it packed.Really nice and saves you few Euros ! Just remember to talk to the reception for packed lunch the day before. (possibly before 7pm)

The bar was very good. You can have 2 drinks with the AI card at one go. Not a problem for us. Also. there was live music almost everyday after supper.

4* hotel........more like 2*-3* at a big push!

If reading the this review you just want some quick basic advice. In our opinion DO NOT pick the half / full / all inclusive it is a waste of money!

The hotel it self is in a good location and is well maintained - the rooms are nice and clean and the beds are made and fresh towels provided. Calella is a lovely town and there is lots to do and has a wonderful beach about a 2 min walk away. To get to Barcelona is easy by train. The train station is a 15-20 min walk and it is 1 hour from Barcelona.

Regarding the services provided is very different. The reception staff are polite and helpful but all the other staff e.g restaurant and bar staff are just plain rude and make you feel very unwelcome.
We booked 3 nights Full broad and our money was wasted. The food was terrible! It was pure graul - drinks also were very over priced.

The swimming pool area is small and there was only about 20-25 sunbeds - only problem was - the hotel has notices around stating that you couldnt use towels to save seats around pool. This was not \" noticed\" by a lot of guests and when you complain to staff they didn't want to know.

If all you want is a hotel as base (sleep and shower) so you can adventure out around Barcelona this is a good hotel to choose as it is cheap but don't be swayed by anyone to think otherwise on the food option.

We guarantee you will be wasting your money!!!!

The Hotel close to the beatch but not 4 stars

The hotelcondition is not as expected from 4 starts hotel. We had only breakfast and if the other meals are they same I would recommend to use the various resturants outside. The room are ok but again not as expected from 4 starts e.g. the curtains had holes so daylight entered early morning.

Fabulous Birthday Weekend

Visited the H.Top Amaika weekend of 16-19 October and had a fabulous time. The hotel is very well maintained and very clean. The staff were very helpful - we were a group of 9 and the restaurant staff gave us a large table at every meal time - the bar staff were very friendly. There is a rule for only 2 drinks at any one visit to the bar but this was acceptable. The hotel is well sited - the beach is only a couple of minutes walk away - and is also near to the shops. Because we could use the amenities of other H.Top hotels nearby we used the sun terrace and hot tubs at the H.Top Calella Palace which is only about 10 minutes walk away - the only problem was that the terrace bar closed for the season the day before we arrived and there was usually only one person behind the main bar and consequently there were always long queues. If you want to use the restaurant at another H.Top hotel you will need to book a day in advance.

not aplace to relax

hotel looks very good when you arrive but not a place to relax if you want to lay by the pool good if you want to go to the beach which is close by
The pool area is very small with not many sunbeds or seating so very difficult to sunbathe at hotel
almost impossible to sit outside at night again due to hardly any seating i would have to say unless you want a beach holliday dont stay at the amaika

Calella - a big change from 40 years ago

Top Amaika Hotel was a good value for the money HOWEVER the wall are very thin. Some guests are NOT considerate. I brought this up to the management. Although we asked for a quite room, our neighbors were not. Three meals were included in the very reasonable rate ... plenty of food served buffet style. The beach is within one block. We stayed for three nights. We took the train from Barcelona and then walked 15 minutes to the hotel.

Et helt greit hotell.
Rommene var noe oppgradert. Men hele hotellet har hatt godt av en oppussing.
Frokosten var grei.

Chambre propre et spacieuse, personnel très gentils, seul bémol la piscine un peu petite pour le nombre de chambre de l’hôtel (peu de transats), mais proche de la mer donc pas problématique au final

El Hotel en general bien calidad-precio.
No me gusto, que se anuncie con Spa y luego te cobren a parte.
En el suelo de la habitación habia un pistacho y algun pelo largo, yo tengo muy corto, que me hizo pensar que no se paso la escoba antes de entrar yo.
Desayuno, mucha cantidad, calidad media-baja.
Todo lo demás bien.

Merinäköala ilman lisämaksua, koska kerros oli 5 ja uima-altaan puolelle. Huoneen lattian siivoamisessa parantamisen varaa. Aamiaisella lämpimät tuotteet olivat liian haaleita 2 viikon kokemuksella. Aamiaisella kokin paistopisteellä oli epäselvä jonotussysteemi ja epäystävällinen palvelu sillä valmiita kananmunia ei annosteltu vaan käskettiin odottamaan jonon päässä edellä olevien asiakkaiden ohukaisten valmistumista. Aamiaisen avauduttua munakkaisiin ei saanut heti täytteitä. Allasalue on pieni asiakasmäärään nähden joten aamulla ennen klo 9 täytyi seisoa jonossa, jos halusi aurinkotuolin käyttöönsä. Sijainti on erinomainen ajatellen ravintoloita, ostoksia ja rantaa. Huolimatta epäkohdista suosittelen hotellia.

Bien dans l'ensemble

Le personnel est très serviable et à notre écoute. Les buffets sont variés du petit-déjeuner au dîner. Seuls bémols: piscine beaucoup trop petite pour le nombre de chambres, et coffre fort payant. Heureusement que des transats et parasol sont à disposition pour la plage (mais il faut se lever de bonne heure pour s'inscrire....)
