GF Victoria

We had a wonderful week long stay at GF Victoria with our family, including two children aged three and four. The pool setup is excellent for families. The kids’ pool has toddler appropriate slides as well as bigger slides that older children and adults can enjoy. There is also another pool on the second floor which is deeper, with a very shallow, gently sloping entry that works perfectly for playing safely with younger toddlers. Breakfast was outstanding. A fantastic buffet with fresh omelettes, pancakes, fruit juices, a wide selection of pastries, eggs cooked in various ways, sausages and much more. Easily one of the best hotel breakfasts we’ve had. We ate at the Amaina Restaurant on two separate evenings and the food was delicious both times. The service was excellent, with very attentive staff who really made a fuss of the children, which made the experience even better. The mini disco and evening entertainment were decent. I’ve seen better elsewhere, but the staff were friendly and enthusiastic, which made up for it. The kids’ club is very well run and our four year old absolutely loved it. Facilities are a big highlight. Squash, padel, table tennis and tennis courts are all easy to book and use via the app. The mini golf could do with a revamp, but it’s still perfectly playable. The gym is exceptional for a hotel gym, genuinely one of the best I’ve seen. The spa looked amazing too, although we didn’t get a chance to use it this time. The rooms are top class. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms made it feel spacious, with plenty of storage for a family of four. Everything was very clean and housekeeping were excellent throughout our stay. Overall, this really is a top hotel and we would highly recommend it to families. We will definitely be back.

Nice hotel, well presented. Waterpark onsite is great and the lifeguards for it are super friendly. The rooms are kept very clean and they do a turn down service which is a nice touch. One of the pool waiters took our order on the first day and forgot and then basically called me a liar - when he finally remembered (after my Mrs went up - she ordered) - 45 minutes later we got our drinks... I was expecting better with the food it was okay. Had better hotel buffets. Overall it's a good hotel but better in the area in my opinion.

Grest family hotel. Good kids facilities. Buffet food changes every evening. Other pools other than kids could be heated too. Rooms are from 2018 and need refubrishment. Highlight is bar on top of the hotel. Great views and drinks. Another highlight was Donnaire Michelin starred restaurant - worth it and lives up to the quality. In-hotel guests get a discount.

Beautiful hotel with nice architecture and a spacious lobby. It does feel like a maze during the first couple of days with all the different levels, but if you search, you’ll find your way. The bedrooms and bathrooms are practical, nicely decorated, and spacious. The restaurant was a real disappointment. Breakfast is good, but nothing special. Dinner is honestly not good: many dishes are served cold, pizzas stay too long under the heaters and are no longer fresh. During our first days we had a full dinner offering, but from September 7th onward only about two-thirds of the kitchen was in use – probably due to lower occupancy? Not okay, as we are still paying the full price. The pools are great and very accessible for little ones. Major downside: our oldest daughter (2.5 years old, just under 1 m tall) loves the water but was not allowed on the big slides or other water attractions. She could only use the “baby” slides, which were too boring for her. This was a real let-down, especially since the hotel promotes itself as child-friendly and we partly chose it for the slides and play facilities.

Lovely, spacious rooms with all amenities. Excellent service and friendly staff. The breakfast buffet is extensive. Our only drawback: the pools aren't heated, making it a bit too cold for a one-year-old in December.
