The inclusion of traditional Spanish breakfast items contributes to the variety and appeal. Furthermore, the breakfast is complemented by the pleasant environment with some reviewers enjoying breakfast in the casino cafeteria or the adjacent restaurant.
However, there are a few concerns mentioned. Some guests feel that the quality of the coffee could be improved and the breakfast area can get crowded, making it a bit of a grab-and-go scenario. A small number of reviews mention dissatisfaction with the quality and variety, suggesting that for the price, the breakfast could be better managed. Despite these minor complaints, the overwhelming sentiment is that the breakfast is an excellent and enjoyable part of the stay at Hotel Levante.
Dinner
However, several aspects of the dining experience fall short. Many guests felt the food lacked in quality and quantity with descriptions ranging from mediocre and bland to outright disappointing and unacceptable. The self-service options and the food at some of the on-site restaurants, such as Hotel Leon and the Termas Restaurant, were noted for being basic and subpar, sometimes even terrible. Additionally, the dining prices were considered high, especially given the limited variety and quality of dishes. Vegetarians and vegans, in particular, found their options to be scarce and uninspired.
There are also issues with service efficiency, as dinner service has been reported as slow and some guests found the menus difficult to follow. Overall, while the breakfast offerings generally fare better, the dinner experiences at Balneario de Archena - Hotel Levante seem to leave much room for improvement, particularly for a hotel aiming to meet four-star standards.
Rooms
Comfort is a recurring theme with rooms being described as cozy and quiet. The soundproofing is well-regarded and the addition of essentials like shower gels and shampoos is appreciated. There are mixed opinions on room size; while some find the rooms spacious, others have found them disappointingly small contrary to their expectations from booking descriptions.
On the downside, several reviews mention outdated furnishings and maintenance issues, such as worn-out bathrobes, small shower screens and noisy or dysfunctional air conditioning. Some guests found certain rooms to be humid or in need of a revamp, particularly in the bathrooms. Despite the comfort and good facilities, the room cleaning services have been criticized for being subpar at times with reports of dirty floors and unclean bathrooms.
Overall, while the hotel provides a comfortable and generally pleasant stay in terms of room size and amenities, there are areas that could benefit from better maintenance and more consistent cleaning services.
Beds
However, comfort seemed inconsistent across different rooms. Several reviews highlighted issues with the firmness of the mattresses, describing them as hard or stiff. Some guests found the mattresses old with springs that created discomfort. There were also comments about the small size of single beds and the general lack of double or king-size beds with many noting that beds were often just pushed together.
Pillows were another point of contention, often described as too thin, mediocre or needing an upgrade. Some felt that decorative cushions would enhance the comfort. Despite the mixed reviews, there is a consensus that the hotel could benefit from updating the mattresses and pillows to ensure a more uniformly comfortable experience for all guests.
