Breakfast
The breakfast is often referred to as very good with some guests specifically mentioning it as excellent. Notably, the breakfast maintains a high standard in terms of both diversity and quality of food, appealing to those valuing a balanced and healthy start to their day. Several reviews commend the value for money with the cost of the breakfast buffet deemed reasonable given the extensive offerings.
While the majority of feedback is positive, a few guests noted areas for improvement, such as the need for more variety and longer breakfast hours. Some found aspects like the breakfast pastries and coffee quality lacking. Despite these minor critiques, the overall sentiment underscores a favorable and satisfying breakfast experience at the hotel, contributing to an enjoyable stay.
Dinner
However, some reviews highlight areas for improvement. While the buffet is varied, several guests find it repetitive and lacking in taste or quality expected from a 4-star hotel. Monotony in cuisine seems to be a recurring theme with some diners noticing the lack of choice and simplicity of the dishes. Comments about the buffet being basic, mediocre or resembling a bad cafeteria suggest there is room for enhancement in both the diversity and the quality of the food offerings.
There are also mentions of logistical aspects, such as the need to book a time slot for the spa, which is seen as an inconvenience. Despite some negative feedback, the general sentiment remains that the food service, including breakfast and dinner, is quite good with attentive and nice personnel contributing positively to the dining experience.
Overall, while there is praise for the diverse buffet and decent quality of food, the repetitive nature of meals and occasional lapses in quality indicate that there are some inconsistencies that the hotel could address to improve the overall dining experience for its guests.
Rooms
On the downside, some guests felt their rooms were too small or not soundproofed, causing noise disturbances at night. Issues were also noted with damaged floors and the occasional room needing renovation. Specific room types, like triples or those facing the street, were perceived to lack space or have undesirable views. Bedding comfort was generally well-regarded, although the practice of joining two single beds to make a double bed was criticized.
Overall, while some aspects like room size and noise present areas for improvement, the hotel's clean, comfortable and well-maintained rooms are appreciated by many guests, contributing positively to their stay.
Beds
However, some visitors have noted issues with the beds being either too soft or uncomfortable with occasional reports of old or sagging mattresses. There are also mixed opinions on the bedding quality with some guests satisfied, while others found it lacking. The cleanliness of the beds is generally well-received, but there have been a few instances where the sheets were not changed promptly.
The rooms themselves are described as clean and comfortable and the hotel offers various room configurations, such as double rooms with an extra bed and triple rooms, although the latter can feel a bit tight. It's worth noting that some guests experienced difficulties with the sofa beds and encountered maintenance issues like broken bed supports.
Despite these mixed reviews, the general consensus leans towards a comfortable bedding experience, making GHT Aquarium & Spa a reasonably good choice for a restful stay.
Cleanliness
Despite an occasional mention of a need for deeper cleaning in specific areas like the carpets in the common areas, the overall feedback on cleanliness is overwhelmingly positive. The well-organized and clean facilities, including the pools, add to the comfort and satisfaction of the guests. Friendly and efficient staff enhance the welcoming atmosphere, making the cleanliness and hospitality a combined highlight of the guests' experience.
Though there are minor points of critique, such as the sofa bed not being made and some areas requiring more attention, these do not overshadow the numerous affirmations of the hotel's clean and well-maintained environment.
Staff
The restaurant staff also garners positive feedback for their kindness and attentive service, enhancing the dining experience for visitors. Many reviewers note the exceptional job done by the entire staff, from the cleaners to the entertainers with the latter being particularly appreciated by families for their engaging activities and professionalism.
Despite a few mentions of isolated unfriendliness and stress among some staff members, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive.

Gym
Pool
The outdoor pool, although sometimes shaded, is a refreshing spot to unwind. It is complemented by a heated option, contributing to a diverse and satisfactory pool experience. However, some guests noted the pool area could use more maintenance and an update planned for the winter is seen as a positive development. Despite a few mentions of the pool being on the smaller side and occasionally crowded, it remains a popular feature.
The atmosphere around the pool area is quiet and suited for adults looking for a peaceful retreat. Families with kids also find it enjoyable, though there's some feedback on the need for more deck chairs and better sun exposure.
The hotel boasts a range of pool-related amenities such as pool towels, though some noted they were not always replaced promptly. The pool staff is described as friendly and contributes to a pleasant visit.
In summary, the pools at GHT Aquarium & Spa receive positive feedback for cleanliness, warmth and variety, while some areas such as space and maintenance could be improved to enhance the guest experience.
Beach
Parking
Availability is another major issue with many reporting no parking spaces available upon their arrival, regardless of whether they've made a reservation. For those who manage to find a spot, it's often not close to the hotel, sometimes requiring a 20-minute walk or being in a street further up. There have been instances of the parking lot being full and guests have noted that despite indicating a need for a parking spot at the time of booking, their requests were not always honored.
Moreover, the hotel's communication about parking availability can be inconsistent with some guests mentioning that despite following instructions to call the hotel to reserve a spot, their efforts were not fruitful and no clear information was provided. For those relying on nearby paid parking facilities, finding a spot can still be a challenge, adding to the inconvenience.
In summary, while GHT Aquarium & Spa does provide parking facilities, guests should be prepared for potential difficulties in securing a spot and budget for the additional cost. Advanced planning and repeated confirmation with the hotel are advisable to avoid any parking-related hassles.
Family
One of the standout features is the variety of entertainment options for kids, including a kids club, playground and animation team. The pool supervision team has been praised for their efforts, ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for little ones. Despite occasional noise and crowding, the overall family-oriented atmosphere makes it a pleasant place to be with children.
Additionally, the hotel's clean facilities and excellent location further enhance its appeal for families. The indoor pool specifically designed for kids adds a special touch, providing a perfect spot for the younger guests to have fun. The exceptional treatment from the staff and a buffet that has been compared to cafes in quality contribute to a well-rounded, enjoyable stay that families are likely to cherish.
