Cook's Club Palma Beach

  : The breakfast was very good lots of choice. Good location close to beach
  : Where to begin ? The rustic concrete and bamboo decor. Uninviting bar area which had no atmosphere and hardly any seating the chairs were bamboo and uncomfortable anyway. The bedroom was OK but very dark, hardly any lighting. Only one chair ( bamboo again). The bathroom floor tiles were uneven and badly grouted, there was an area roughly filled where the toilet obviously used to be. I also saw quite a few small bugs running around the floor and one silver fish insect. The shower flooded the floor. The walls are very thin you can hear everything next door.The main complaint however is that it was never mentioned in the details that this is a music/ party hotel. Every day from midday until about midnight there was loud music around the pool area which I can only describe as Ibiza club type music....very loud and repetitive!! If you have a pool view room there is no getting away from it. You cannot relax quietly in your room at any time. It seemed unnecessary that the music was this loud even when the weather was cold, windy and sometimes raining and there was no- one round the pool ! Most evenings there seemed to be more people drinking in the foyer than the bar, probably to get away from the music. I'm sure there is more of an atmosphere in the height of summer but mainly for younger party going adults.I'm afraid we will not be staying there again.

  : The breakfast and staff are superb...
  : The pool was closed. Pool music went on too late considering the amount of people at hotel.

  : Food was amazing, very astetically pleasing and good music.
  : It felt a bit like a concrete jungle and the facilities were very minimal

  : Great breakfast. DJ round the pool very good and sunbeds were very comfortable. Drinks and food were affordable unlike a lot of other places so nice to have a few drinks round the pool in the day
  : Having to either pay for the safe in the room or not use it and feel like your valuables were at risk. Everything else in the hotel was great but this made it feel like they were being a bit cheap. The safe is already in the room and personally i don't think it is a feature that you should be charged for

  : Super tiny room so its impossible to spend time there, its encouraging u to spend time outside or in the pool area or the lounge or party outside

  : Breakfast was okay
  : Facielities in the room were super super cheap and used to the fullest (you could tell from the quality of the toilet,shower, shower glass). The wholes between the wall and bathroom floor were filled with a type of glue and it looked so bad. The rooms have a vibe of a HOSTEL not a Hotel. Very small, little light, one pillow per person, a bathroom with a tiny window that you can not open fully) There was no information about the fact that the walls are super thin to the point where you could hear everything from the corridor, neighbors or the pool area. IF I KNEW ABOUT IT BEFORE BOOKING I would have been able to make an informed decision. At the chceck in time the staff also did not inform us that everyday there is a DJ untill 11p.m (would be nice to know :))) To me this hotel is a scam. Ps. I highly recommend to fix the staff door on the first floor as every time someone opens them they SMASH back closed. Waking everyone on the floor :)

  : The proximity to the airport. 20 euro for a late night taxi. The breakfast! Amazing range of food very tasty. Good coffee. Walking distance to the beach. The pool and bar area looks really chilled and lovely. Local mini supermarket 5 min down the road. The bus into Palma was right outside.
  : The rooms aren't well soundproofed. I listened to German TV on full blast until around 3 am. The TV was in German. Where's the Spanish?! Thats where I'd traveled to. The outside and inside of the building had been painted dark grey. I know grey is currently everywhere, but this made it look and feel a little prison like. Defiantly not a sunny Spanish hotel. The rest of the dcor was really nice. This colour just closed the walls in around you. Like a concrete box. Shame.

  : Very beautiful and young orientated hotel, the breakfast buffet was trully amazing. We also dinned in one night at the cantina, the burgers and oven potatoes were a dream and affordable. The pool side was also very beautiful and enjoyable, great sunbeds!
  : The walls are very thin. Unfortunately our room was right next to the elevators and we could hear every guest that passed by on all hours of the day/night. The worst was at 2-5 am when the guests came back to the hotel.They did provide earplugs which were a but helpfull.

  : The pool area and bar was great - food (we had both breakfast and lunch at the hotel) was very good. 8,5-9 out of 10.DJ at the pool was a little too noisy for our taste, and a bit too pushing for a party from already 12 midday.
  : The rooms were extremely loud, you can hear what your neighbor is thinking - it wasnt very clean, and most of all looked like it could use a big make-over. However, once you find out that this hotel is in the middle of a party area for Germans - it all makes more sense. You can hear people singing and screaming from the streets while night, and whenever anyone on the floor youre on (or above and below) comes home, you hear it all. We did not sleep well here..
