I'd stay here again

The Principado has an excellent location. The rooms are a nice size. Everything is clean. The staff is friendly. Prices are good. The breakfast is good and the workout room is sufficient. However, there's not a coffee maker.

Disappointed at check in as they gave my two rooms away to others. After that issue was fixed they then advised me that they canceled one room as they felt it was a double booking mistake. Hotel did credit me a refund but then wanted to charge me more to “rebook”!

The hotel is very well situated for dining and shopping options. The room was large and fairly clean. There was no kettle or tea/coffee making facilities in the room but there was coffee, hot and cold water available in the dining area next to reception. It would have been helpful to have been informed about this during check-in. The receptionist when we checked in was not very helpful. However, the receptionist, when we checked out, was very helpful. He helped us with our bags and tried very hard to answer our questions. We only stayed one night and did not have breakfast since we had to go to the airport early in the morning.
