Belmare Hotel

The location was ideal, close to a nice pebbly beach and on a main road through Lardos which had a few nice restaurants and bars to wander at night. The hotel is not big and rooms were nicely spaced out that you didn't feel overcrowded. The pool was a good size for the number of people staying at the hotel and it was clean with an attentive pool bar. The staff were friendly and helpful. We loved the hotel cat which seemed to live on our patio we called him' John'! I would come back to the hotel to see the cat!

When you dig behind the scenes of the hotel there are some tell tale signs of neglect. In our room we had a section of the shower door missing, so water was flooding the room. There was a bathroom shelf which was hanging off also. The mattress could have been more comfortable but the room overall was clean. In the hotel restaurant area there was one very old air-conditioning machine working on full power next to two doors which were always open, so making no impact at all. The food was the worst we have ever experienced at a hotel and was disappointed with the variety, quality and hygiene of the dishes. There as food our for lunch and also topped up for dinner. Not ideal in the summer heat. Some of the pre prepared hot food was lacking taste and could have been hotter. 4 out of 6 of our party had an upset stomach.
