Intur Azor Mini-hotel

Well… unless you like well ventilated rooms, I’d avoid this hotel… it’s torn down! We are staying at the adjacent Hotel Bonaire and our balcony overlooks the site where the Hotel Azor used to be. For proof, see my photos. We consider booking this hotel but opted for another in the chain. There are , were, three Intur hotels on the road. When walked out on the balcony, we say a building partially knocked down. It was great as our room now has a sea view!!!

We stayed here during benicassim festival and paid a pretty high price for what we got. We chose the hotel based on positive reviews from other people but when we arrived, the receptionist was frosty (and only one receptionist has acknowledged us when entering and been very pleasant). The room was a twin room and is rather dated. They give you a decent sized TV with a limited remote which meant no USB viewing for us, the beds are very basic and quite uncomfortable, bathroom is tiny but functional. To add to this, the maids clean at several different points of the day and at each point including the earliest, they are rather loud. There is a symphony of beds with metal legs being pushed over tiled floor from each direction (the soundproofing is not brilliant), and the carts are ridiculously loud despite having signs on them asking people to be quiet. I sleep with earplugs but was still woken up each morning by this. So the rooms could definitely do with an update considering the prices they charge and the 3 star rating. The next issue we had was breakfast, which looked brilliant in photos but was rather dull in reality. However, the eggs were nicely cooked so eggs and toast it was. Advertised on their board is a swimming pool, gym and spa. The swimming pool and gym (and also golf course) cost €5 per session which was definitely not disclosed before booking, and it was only by going through other reviews that we found the free swimming pool which is across the road. Compared to the rest of the facilities, the pool is luxurious. Very large, plenty of green space around it for sunbathing and a lovely temperature. They could do with a few more sunbeds but that's a minor issue for how nice it is. If someone from the hotel had mentioned its location, we would have been less annoyed with the paid for facilities at the time as it felt we were being cheated for having to pay for something we already paid through the nose for.

Not for me, travelled all around Spain and this was our least favourite place we stayed in
