Guest reviews about Hotel Merida Medea Affiliated by Meliá

Slightly old objects

The room where we stayed only had a view of cars, empty restaurants and little else.

You can tell that the furniture is old, with paint chips and many years. It would need a reform. It is very far from the center, it is necessary to take the car.

The buffet is fine but perhaps for a four-star it is a bit sparse. Especially that there is no natural juice for us is a nuisance.

we arrived and the windows were open and there was a lot of humidity in the rooms

Great

in general everything was fine

Slippers and bathrobe would be appreciated.

There was no minibar in the room, which for a 4-star hotel, even if it is a basic room, I think should not happen, and on the other hand, the vending machine had no water and it depends on an external company, so I It was time to get 3 bottles of aquarius to spend the night.

Little variety in the restaurant menu

Everything is fine.

The bathroom screen caused water to come out when taking a shower

The decoration is a bit old but the hotel is luxurious and the treatment is spectacular

The decor is outdated.

I didn't like the location, we took the car every day to go to the center, it seems impractical if you go for a few days.

...

The exterior areas of the hotel, there are no gardens or we did not have access. That the room did not have a terrace.

It's not in the center.

not having kitchenette/kitchen

The bed with spring mattress. Mine was very sunken and I was digging the springs all night (and I'm very skinny). And also the mattress made noise. Definitely I will not repeat for that reason need to renew

I asked for an invoice at the bar and was refused saying that I could ask for it at reception. At the reception they say no and they are not willing to help solve the problem..

They put shaving kit, comb and a toothbrush when we were two! in the room a chair for two, the empty terrace where you could not sit down to sunbathe...

Any

The only thing we didn't like is that the room was very cold and there weren't enough blankets considering that it was February 1st.

For dinner in the cafeteria, the menu of the day is a QRcode and I didn't have my iPhone, the menu has no translation into French, too bad

Pillows and bed

That dinner was served at the bar, table and chairs not suitable for dining comfortably.

If it had a spa, it would have been great. We were surprised to pay at the entrance instead of at the exit, but it seems to be a very transit hotel for work.

Everything was fine

Little time

The style is set in the Roman circus of Merida, it is original, but not very welcoming with so many marbles

Lack of shower repair I'm sure they were already accounted for Lo de más muy a gusto

Any. Everything went smoothly.

Half board. Every day there was the same food, lunch and dinner, so the repetition of the dishes became a bit tiring. The breakfast buffet was not very varied.

It complies as a 4-star hotel both for the facilities and for the quality of materials, although it shows that they have been around for a while and renewing some decoration to bring it up to date would not be bad.

The room was not swept, full of hair and fluff and the bathtub was very uncomfortable, the shower head cord was very short and it was difficult to take a shower

We had half board, the buffet breakfast but dinner was with a menu to choose from several dishes.

tasteless

Away from the center, parking is paid, in the private outdoor area of ​​the hotel there is only room for five cars, there are more places but they have put some huge flowerpots and you can not park, with the intention I suppose that you pay for paid parking. Even with all this there is a public parking without parking problems in front.

Old fashioned decor, looks like a 1920's hotel. Jacuzzi useless, no power, more of a large tub with "splashes". Don't overpay to have it. Also, a lot of cleaning is needed.

I thought it was a rather expensive hotel, value for money.

Nothing to highlight

The food we are intolerant to gluten and milk and there was not much choice

It is far from the center to walk

The soundproofing of the Hotel leaves something to be desired... All the noise from the corridors can be heard.

It's a bit far from the center, but we went for dinner on foot and got back in a taxi without any problems.

Dinner was definitely below par but we were late and the hotel is in the suburbs.

Lack of dining room service and restaurant for dinner; the services they offer for this purpose are of very little variety.

This is a hotel that lives in the past (I remember it over 20 years ago). The furniture is impractical and we found it curious that in Mérida at these temperatures there was no refrigerator in the room. It has parking for 10 euros when in the restaurant area in front you can park without problems. There is also a cafeteria, but the prices are expensive, and the bars across the road offer good prices and plenty of breakfast.

Nothing to say.

No work points

The garage has quite tight places between pillars.

breakfast schedule

the bed was not very comfortable

Private parking, not free for guests. The rooms need to be updated...

WiFi quality. The car park in front of the hotel is also shared with the cinemas.

Dinner at the hotel restaurant, very mediocre. If you put "Neapolitan pasta" please, in addition to the sad boiled pasta and tomato sauce, put at least some grated cheese and some spices to give it a little flavor...Caesar salad is also very simple....

Pretty slow dinner. Although the wait staff tried their best, they could have been a little more friendly. The front desk didn't even ask how it was.

They don't have a minibar

Any

If I have to put a but: the air conditioning in the common areas is too low: it was cold in the corridors. And there are too many steps to get to the pool: it is not convenient in a baby stroller

The breakfast pastries were industrial

we asked for a superior room because it said it had a double bed but in the end they were pushed together

Maybe a bit far from the center, but not too much

the entrance is a bit complicated to cross the street and the stairs

The area is ugly because it is a shopping mall. The doors of the rooms slammed shut and that made it uncomfortable if you didn't want to make noise.

The queues to enter the buffet are very long because hardly anyone wants to be at the terrace tables outside due to the heat. Little birds enter inside the dining rooms. I don't know if they will be able to make their own in the food. The buffet staff is very saturated because I think they are few for the number of customers we are. And still, they don't lose their smile. There were never teaspoons for dessert. We continually had to pester the staff to give them to us. In addition, on some occasion they told us that they did not have clean ones, that we had to wait. Even when setting up the table for breakfast, they did not put them. We continually had clean plates but never cutlery. In the breakfast buffet there is water with and without gas. At noon and dinner, no. You have to pay it, if you are on half board. And after 6 days, it shows. Dairy desserts are not cold. Most of the food is not labeled. You know what you take. The one in the hot zone, yes it is and it really is the only varied one. Apart from this, there are always cheeses, vegetables to combine in salads and cold salads. I have hardly seen first courses of the puree, cream, or gazpacho type. But it's always the same. The same goes for desserts. Everything is very broad but repetitive. For breakfast there are different types of cereals and even nuts. But unlabeled. And the coffee machines ran out every day during breakfast service. In the pool areas there is no table service at the bar. You must get up from the table or lounger to order the drink. During the evening shows there is no space for us all to be seated if we feel like it. In the room there were many damages that we reported and were not fully resolved by maintenance (probably because someone needed a more important and incompatible work.

Family room 337: Negatives No fridge in room. Bunk bed mattresses very hard. In general, I did not like the time restriction for the use of the pool during the midday hours.

At 12:00 o'clock (we already have to be out) the door of the room is locked and the key is not valid. I was loading the car and I was able to go back in to pick up the phone because my wife was still inside. I understand that it is automatic and that at that time we must be out... but setting it to 12:30 doesn't matter. If I was alone, I would have had to go down to reception and wait for the two people in front of me to finish. It is not a criticism, it is a comment because I understand that at that time we must be out of the room, but we rushed because my wife was in a work meeting and finished at that time.

the location and no fridge in the room

Everything was correct.

price of breakfast

Being a hotel belonging to a chain, the facilities and the atmosphere are a bit impersonal and you are not in a cozy place

It is very far from the center. The furniture in general is old and worn. Something to improve in a hotel with these characteristics and prices. The breakfast, although complete, was too industrial, not even the orange juice was freshly made and natural. The worker who attended us at the reception was not very nice. Although the rest of the staff, both lifeguard, and in the bar and breakfast area, all charming.

any

That the courtyard was without light.

Of the minuses, what I least liked was the smell when entering the room, as if it was closed.

The only downside I would call a hotel is the location if you are going to Merida to do some tourism and get to know the city. You need to go to the center by private car or taxi. We went to a classical theater festival and at that time the hotels in the center had exorbitant prices and Medea was the one that offered us the best value for money.

I find it a little more expensive

Connection

Not applicable

The price, for me, is not in the spirit, 15 euros per person for breakfast. Traveling with four people, two of them small children, spending 60 euros for breakfast seemed a bit exaggerated, especially when compared with the cost of the room.

snack chairs

bathroom needs renovation. Water seeped through the screen

far from center

Any!

Ras

There is no mini bar in the room. When traveling with children, it is essential to have a supply of yoghurt, milk, etc.

Very old bathroom, the floor was wet every time we took a shower. The room is spacious but very empty. There was no mini bar.

Price. Poorly organized breakfast, 10 euros for a buffet seems expensive to me, and if you just want coffee and toast, you have to explain yourself. Maybe you need to clean your room a bit more and miss the mini bar.

€7.50 for a mixed sandwich in the canteen...the walls are made of cardboard and the cleaners at 9am yelling and chatting...I couldn't rest

The mattresses on the 2 bunk beds are very hard, for this reason my daughters did not sleep well.

- The air conditioning in the room is not adjustable, it is centralized and it was hot for the first few hours, after complaining that the corridor was better than the room, it seemed to be slightly better regulated, which made the stay more pleasant.

That there was no table and chairs on the terrace.

It is a mistake that there is no refrigerator in the rooms. I did not like that the pool opened at 12, at this time it is already very late.

location, but to spend the night on the way is perfect!

Value for money is ok but not great.

Location and no outdoor furniture in the room with a balcony.

The distance from the city center was quite far to reach the hotel by trolley because the road was a bit uphill from the roman bridge.

that they made me change my room on arrival. with a guy in bed and you can't say anything because it looks like they're doing you a favor

Having the pee closed is one thing, but the lack of access to the garden was a negative for me.

When we returned at 5:00 pm the room had not been cleaned. We were tired, very hot and annoyed to find that the beds were not made, the bathroom was dirty and the room was hot because the window was still open. The receptionist told us that she would send someone to clean, but we wanted to rest and refused. When we returned after dinner, the problem was solved. Apart from this incident, I would emphasize that the decoration is rather dated.

Mérida in May was 33 degrees, we knew that the pool was not working, but due to the heat there, they could reassess and anticipate the opening of the pool.

Varied half board menu, ideal when dinner is included but it's true that for the most sophisticated eaters (myself included) there is not much to choose from. I have to say the entrecote is exquisite and the yoghurt cream is amazing. To be honest, there are 10 chefs, both in terms of presentation and quality.

As ideal as this place is for those who travel by car, the first impression is not very attractive. The building itself is very interesting from an architectural point of view, but in the immediate vicinity there are large parking lots, cinemas, shopping centers, etc.

There is no furniture on the terrace of the room and you cannot use it. They have nothing to eat in the canteen after 4:00 pm.

My bathroom did not have toiletries that other rooms had. The beds had wheels and made a lot of noise, any movement was a bit old.

Everything is fine

Nothing to add.

A lot of noise in the corridors, jacuzzi not fully functional. Personally I found it expensive for the amenities it offered.
