Guest Reviews
Hotel Cristal 2’s location receives high praise from guests, primarily due to its proximity to the beach. Nestled right on the seashore and next to Riazor beach, the hotel offers stunning sea views and a tranquil atmosphere, making it an ideal retreat within the city. The promenade, which is a stone's throw away, provides easy access for leisurely strolls. Guests appreciate that the hotel is within a 15 to 20-minute walking distance to the city center, ensuring that the main attractions of A Coruña are accessible without being in the bustling heart of the old town.
Visitors also note the convenience of nearby parking spaces, which is beneficial for those traveling by car. The location on the coastline offers the dual advantage of serene beach views while still being close to essential amenities such as shops, restaurants and bus stops. Although some find it a bit far from the old town, the beautiful seafront walk makes the distance enjoyable.
The combination of impressive views, especially from rooms facing the sea and the convenience of nearby beaches and city access, makes Hotel Cristal 2's location highly appreciated by its guests.
Hotel Cristal 2 has received mixed reviews regarding its breakfast offerings. While the hotel excels in many areas, breakfast appears to be a notable shortfall. Many guests have highlighted the absence of a breakfast service entirely with no option to even get a coffee in the morning. Some guests were particularly disappointed that this service was not available on Sundays. The lack of a restaurant or cafeteria within the hotel premises further limits dining options for guests. Despite these limitations, the hotel's convenient location makes it accessible to nearby dining establishments where guests can enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. Overall, while the hotel provides a satisfactory stay, prospective guests should be aware that breakfast is not available on-site.
Hotel Cristal 2, nestled near the beach, offers rooms with mixed reviews. On the positive side, guests appreciated the clean and comfortable accommodations with some rooms providing stunning sea views. The spacious bathrooms and large comfortable beds also received favorable mentions. Visitors highlighted the hotel's good cost-benefit ratio and its well-maintained cleanliness.
However, there are several areas where the hotel could improve. Many guests noted that the rooms are small with some describing them as tiny and cramped, making them less ideal for multiple occupants. Noise issues were frequently mentioned with rooms lacking soundproofing and facing inner courtyards or back streets, which did not help with privacy or tranquility. The furniture and fixtures appeared old and in need of repair with instances of broken shower doors, outdated televisions and insufficient lighting in bathrooms being common complaints.
Other drawbacks included the pervasive smell of tobacco in non-smoking rooms, hard mattresses and issues with room cleanliness. The lack of convenient power outlets and maintenance shortfalls, such as non-functional room lights and dampness on walls, further detracted from the overall experience. Additionally, there were no breakfast options or restaurant facilities on-site, although the hotel's location provided easy access to nearby dining establishments.
Overall, Hotel Cristal 2 offers a basic and budget-friendly stay with clean and comfortable rooms, but it requires significant updates and improvements to meet diverse guest expectations fully.
