H.Top Olympic Hotel

My wife and I stayed at the H.Top Olympic in September 2017. The hotel is fairly old, but quite well maintained. It is about 5 to 10 minutes pleasant, easy walk from the excellent beach, or to the town centre. it is also literally across the road from a medium to large sized Mercadona supermarket. The staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful, but must be frustrated by the common complaints about the noise. The walls and ceilings of the hotel are NOT very well sound insulated, so that if or when there are noisy, drunken guests returning to their rooms in the early hours, their voices and slamming doors etc. can be heard by lots of people, so would recommend ear plugs! The food and drinks were very good when we were there and we were amazed by how they manage to produce so much food for so little cost, as we had a very cheap all inclusive holiday. If we were going to Calella again, we would probably spend a bit more, then go to a more modern, well sound insulated hotel, but we had a very good time for the amount of money that we spent

The hotel was very good, food excellent staff very freindly

My recent stay at the hotel was very enjoyable and staff were friendly and helpfull.

Had best holiday ever and met some great people, staff were friendly and helpful and lots to do

As cheap as chips for our last-minute booking in June. The hotel was very clean, the beds were the best I’ve ever slept in on holiday, the food was really nice (even my super-picky husband found something he liked every mealtime), the pools and pool area were good and the drinks were fine too. I especially enjoyed the “cocktail of the day” every day. It’s not a 5* star hotel (but neither did we pay 5* prices) but we thought it was a very good 3* hotel. We would certainly go back and have no hesitation in recommending it to others.

My wife and I arrived around 1400 and were allocated our room which was large enough for 2, but would have been very cramped for 4 as there were 2 single beds pushed together with 2 further beds underneath. The bed side lockers were moveable to allow all 4 beds to be set up. There was a double built in wardrobe with a safe (additional Charge) and a narrow desk with a large mirror and 1 chair to use with the desk, although if you did this there was not enough space for anyone to pass you.
A reasonable large bathroom with a bath with mixer taps to convert to a shower with a shower curtain running the length of the bath. A large mirror fitted above the sink with single use shower gel, shampoo and soap supplied along with 2 large and 2 small towels.
A balcony with 2 chairs above one of the 4 pools with a view of the main street down to the beach and in the foreground the newly opened Mercato supermarket that was like a uk main food store.
Arriving at 1400 meant lunch was still on as it runs from 1300 - 1500 with burgers, hot dogs, chips and salad available between lunch and dinner. All inclusive meant that dig in and fill up. Food was good always something to eat at all meal times. Lunch and dinner had a choice of serve yourself drinks, red or white wine, beer, water and a selection of fizzy soft drinks. The table were all set with cutlery, wine glasses and paper of liner napkins depending on he meal. Soft drinks in wine glasses was different.
Breakfast:
full continental, a variety of bread and rolls with a selection of cold meats and cheese, biscuits and buns. Cooked breakfast, scrambled egg, beans, transparent bacon and boiled eggs. The show cooking area 5 out of 7 days fresh pancakes cooked to order and fried eggs every day. A selection of cereals, fruit juices and hot drinks available.
Lunch:
Selection of bread and rolls, various side salads made up with a selection of cold salad ingredients and cheese and ham for those wanting a full plate.chips, chicken or pork burgers, hot dog sausages, various fish and mostly pork cooked various ways and paella or white rice with potato and fresh veg. Lots of fresh fruit and deserts.
Dinner:
Similar to lunch with different fish and pork dishes.
Drinks:
Bar opened 10-midnight. On arrival issued with a blue card (registered to guest) and a green card for glasses, To get a drink from the bars both cards were required the green one being retained as a glass deposit and he blue returned. A 2nd, 3rd etc and you need the blue card each time, the green card got returned when you took your glass back for the final time. The pool area had thin plastic highball type (glasses) as no glass was allowed in the pool area. One drink per blue/green card. Spirits were generous double measures with ice.
Access to the pools was via a couple of flights of steps below the main hotel. My wife uses a walking frame and struggled to access the pool via the steps. The hotels solution was to use the emergency exit in the dinning hall to get to the pool and let the lifeguard know when she wanted back in and the emergency exits was opened to let her back in.
7 floors with numerous lifts that lead to different areas, one to the bar, two to the food hall,reception and a further lift to reception. Large bar with stage which showed the football and evening entertainment, kiddy disco, adult disco, karaoke, dancers, magician on different nights. There was also a games machine area with a couple of pool tables, popcorn machine and comfy seats.
Two smoking area with tables and chairs one by the pool and one by the bar/main entrance.
Pools well kept with ample sun loungers open 10-1900.
The rooms are dated but well maintained and cleaned daily. All the staff are friendly and helpful. Food and drink plentiful with something for everyone. Good for the price you pay. Can be noisey around midnight when the bar closes as the room walls seem very thin. Booked last minute so cheap. We would definitely stay again.

Spent 4 nights there and tbh I wish it was longer the hotel itself is what it is. If ur expecting 5 star pay for it. Food was ok always something different to eat. Staff where friendly and attentive. Before we went I read the reviews and was dreading it. But tbh the moaning in my opinion was unfounded. Yes the walls are thin. And it does need updating but I found the rooms cleaned every day. Fresh towels etc. Pool clean staff friendly and met some fantastic people. Would I go back there.......Oh most definitely.

The staff were all very helpful and nothing to much bother for them. The food was good and varied and always something to eat . Would recommend it to anyone!

Took my grandkids and we had a lovely holiday

Peoples reviews don't give it justice. Good clean basic hotel. No issues. Great deal. Food and room fine
