In an enviable location right in the centre of Salou, Hotel Planas Hotel is a family-friendly establishment situated mere steps from the city’s main beachfront promenade. The rooms are simply furnished, have cooling tile floors, and feature en suite bathrooms, air conditioning, minibars, flat screen TV’s with satellite channels, in-room safes, work desks and telephones. All have private balconies, some with sea and pool views. The lovely pool terrace is the focus at Hotel Planas, and has the usual sun beds and tables. Reception is open 24 hours and free Wi-Fi is available throughout. A buffet breakfast is available every morning, and there is an a la carte restaurant on-site for the other two meals. The main attraction is the beach, barely 100 yards from the front door. Club Nautic Salou, with its popular sailing school, is also about 100 yards from the door.
The location was by far what most impressed guests about Planas. While not directly on the beach, it is just a bit back, and most rooms seem to have sea vies. But it was not so much the views that impressed, but the proximity to the promenade. Guests had, after all, booked a beach break, and were happy that it was just a short stroll to get to the golden sands.
Several guests expressed their surprise that the buffet breakfast at the hotel was not too bad. It was described as a decent spread, with enough variety and quantity to set them up for the day.
Many guests travelling in summer expressed their relief that their unit had air conditioning, and that it was effective. Considering the heat, they couldn't imagine having a good holiday without it. Some also commented they were happy that the hotel didn't charge extra for it, a practice they didn't seem to approve of.
Unfortunately, it seems that guests pay for the prime location close to the beach and nightlife by having to endure some noise disturbing their sleep at night. Guests specifically mentioned noise from cars zooming by, and also from revellers leaving the bars.
Guests didn't really seem to like the room décor much. Those commenting on it typically called it old fashioned, and in need of an update.
A couple of guests mentioned that this was the only English language station available on TV. While some did want to keep abreast of developments while on holiday, they felt that, considering the large number of English speaking guests at the hotel, there really should have been more English channels available.
