Nice location. Close to the beach.
Chaotic check-in. No control of our room. Mixed up a lot of rooms and we ended up in another room than ours. Not clean bathroom. Water dripping from AC down to one of the beds. Very, very unhappy. Expensive and not nearly worth it.
Good TV in the room
We have to wait for the check in and the woman who appear finally in the reception es rude. Rooms poor, ugly.
A really great position, just on the beach. Great guys working there really!!! So sweet and polite. The beach bar is great..the food as well. Really nice breakfast. Woulx.gladly go back!!!Thank you especially Miss Ivana
Room was pretty. The facilities were pretty good, enjoyable breakfast, nice pool, nice sauna and although it was sometimes hard to park on the hotel it still had plenty of spaces to leave your car
The beds were really small/couldnt fit us very well and the Air-Conditioning was terrible, we would leave it on for hours and still it didnt do its job. Sometimes parking was also hard but manageable
We managed to change rooms after begging the receptionist as the first room smelled badly of cigarette smoke. Second evening diggers were moving until at least 11pm. Really noisy. That said it was a long way from the city and expensive to commute, but did have a nice restaurant that looked out at the beach from the rear of the hotel.

Clean room with a very comfortable bed. The hotel is very nicely decorated?
Having a private beach and pool was great and the views were amazing. The staff was so lovley and helpful.
Nothing. We had a great time.
A coastal haven! This hotel right on the sea is a fantastic choice for a relaxing escape. The room was comfortable and the staff was welcoming.Pure relaxation!!!
Absolutely lovely! This charming hotel, located right on the sea in Podstrana, provided a perfect escape. The room was cozy, the staff was friendly, and dining with the sound of waves crashing was a highlight. Highly recommended!
Very clean and good facilities.
It was difficult to find as there was no signage for Gala Hotel
Amazing staff, everyone was extremley nice and helpful. Birthday celebration for my friend went beyond expectations, they even got us a one-pound birthday cake to our room. We had a very good experience and would definitely come back!
The traffic was bit intense
Very clean, staff friendly and helpful, free parking, nice beach
We expected tea station or a kettle in the room :(
On the beach with great facilities at the beach and a good breakfast.
Couldn’t locate reception because it was a sister hotel with Hotel San Antonio which is where we needed to check in ( no advice given regarding this ). The young male who checked us in spoke way to fast ( all four of us could not capture what he said even after repeating it a second time, other staff were great.. Elevator broke down regularly, shower in our room not draining (reported but not fixed during our 2 day stay). Shower glass door sounded like it was going to crack when open and closed. key card entry to building and room took several attempts to work ( spoke with others and was a common problem). Had to slam the front door to close it. Very small compact room.
Location, location and location +staff :)Rooms are spacious.
Very good
There were no shampoo on the rooms and breakfast was not that good
Excellent breakfast and clean room!
