Hotel Calabona

Great location and offers free shuttle to town. Breakfast is excellent. However they charge you 15€ for parking per day on premises and 3€ for use of towels at the pool. Should be free since this is a category 4 star hotel.

The approach to this hotel at the moment is spoiled by building work and derelict looking buildings which initially make you feel you’ve made a mistake.However once you are at the hotel proper and as long as you don’t have one of the rooms overlooking the building site there is no need to worry about it. The approach from the rear brings you up some steps to a large swimming pool and a large seating area with sun beds, tables and chairs and an all day bistro / bar and then the rear entrance to reception.Parking is either free on the seafront with access past the pool or 15 euros per day at the other entrance to the hotel which is harder to find but right in front of the main doors so easier with luggage .All of the staff we encountered were keen to help and friendly which is a great help to the overall feel of the hotel. It would appear the hotel had gone through some refurbishment with some original rooms and others more modern. Our room was an excellent, very clean and modern suite with a double balcony and two bathrooms which we really liked and in comfort ranks very highly against others we have stayed in at other hotels.Bed was comfortable and the room was extremely quiet all the time especially during the night. It didn’t overlook the pool area which may have had more noise at certain times we felt so choose your room according to your individual needs. The breakfast was a decent spread in a large comfortable room again with friendly staff. There was a free shuttle at key times through the day into the main part of Alghero or a pleasant 20 minutes walk at a decent pace. This hotel suited us for the purpose of our visit and we had a very comfortable stay.
