Hotel das Salinas - Grupo Alboi — Hotel in Aveiro

We stayed here for 3 nights in the middle of Jun 2024. PROS: Very good location. Steps away from the action and attractions and lots of dining and shopping. Faces the canal where all the boats ply. Well designed, spacious and comfy rooms. Staff (especially the front office girl named Nada goes above and beyond tomake you fell welcome not just to the hotel, but also to Aveiro. Nada went out of her way to help us with anything we asked for. A short drive to the beach. CONS: Not easy to get parking. The hotel will direct you to the underground paid parking at the mall which is a 10 minutes walk . The hotel aranges for a parking pass for you which let's you go in and out of the parking lot several times. You pay for the parking at the hotel before check-out. Breakfast is ok. Pretty basic Nothing to write home about. Water is not drinkable, but the hotel staff help you get some filtered water. The hotel's elevator takes only one person at a time. But you really don't need an elevator when on vacation. Believe me the climb is not much. I recommend this place and would select it again if I...

Booked a 4 night stay with 2 joined rooms for vacation. Perfect location, construction did not bother us much. View was of a courtyard and walls. Was expecting the canal. Hotel is clean, could use some updating… shower needs fresh caulk….breakfast is decent and a bonus since it’s included. Staff definitely needs some refining.. instructions on air conditioning unit would be helpful at check in, microwave didn’t work ( let 2 different people know, nothing was done) card keys only worked half the time. No1 to help with luggage at check in, or check out( reception woman sat at the computer not helping anyone and watched us struggle with luggage) asked the desk for fresh towels, was given them but asked us to bring ours down. Could not call the desk from the room. When traveling for vacation it should feel like everyone is working to make your stay memorable and that was not the case at all. Would not recommend...
