All round good city break hotel. Don't expect any Spanish flavours in the interior....quite plush for for the cost per night, and looks newly refurbed throughout. About 10-15min reasonably paced walk to the Old Town and The Ramblas. About 20-25mins to the beach/marina. However it should only cost about €10 in a taxi. If possible request one of the top... more

The room is very clean and modern. Spacious. Excellent shower with 3 types of jets . Good breakfast with plenty of fresh fruits. Easy access to the shopping district and the port.

We had a really good stay. We took a trip during a hot week in august, the city was brimming with turists - but the room had AC, the shower great and the bed comfy.

The hotel appears to have been recently refurbished, with stone tile floors and limestone clad walls. Check-in was very quick and efficient, and staff very friendly indeed. Bedroom was high quality, with... more

I stayed for one night at the Hesperia Presidente and was given a double room. The hotel is modern and clean but a wee bit away from the tourist attractions. The rooms are adequate but the bath is tiny. My room had a small balcony but not all rooms have this so make sure you ask for one if you... more

I loved the modern, contemporary decor of the hotel....especially the bathrooms---I loved the large stand-in shower with the large shower head (great water pressure!) and massage jets....very relaxing after a long day of sightseeing!...I also loved the ultra-comfy king bed. I was even impressed by the complementary toiletries that the hotel provided, which even included: a hairbrush, shoeshine, razor, toothbrush,... more
