We spent 7 nights at The Olympic Palace Resort on all inclusive basis with our 9 year old son at the end of August. We were greeted by friendly reception staff, who checked us in and took our bags to our room. We found the food was good in all of the restaurants, and there was always a great selection, especially at breakfast (never eaten so much water melon over a sustained period!). Our favourite place to eat lunch was at the place by the main pool area, which served a good buffet selection of salads, hot food, and desserts. Entertainment- we loved going up to the rooftop bar to have sundowners before dinner, and we often went back after food and enjoyed the entertainment put on - which was also very good quality. The hotel has an overall wow factor when you arrive and as you enter the lobby, which seems consistent with a 5 star rating, but sadly the room we had (a superior family sea-facing room) was disappointing and it didn’t tie in with the rest of the beautiful decor of the hotel. Things like: the TV hanging at an odd angle on the wall; the remotes covered in old looking clingfilm; the bathroom toilet with a hairline crack along the front of the cistern; and shoddy grouting and tiles that looked dirty but with closer inspection it was just the design!! Also, the bedroom had low lighting everywhere, a lack of mirrors in sensible places, and a less than impressive balcony. But the view made up for that as it was beautiful. We were very impressed with the friendliness of all the staff all the way through our holiday. Joe, in particular, who was one of the reps who helped facilitate the entertainment by the pool, amongst other things, was really excellent - and very generous with him time, including offering to play Nintendo Switch with our 9 year old son which he really loved! Joe was a credit to the whole experience. So overall we had a good time, and for us the bedroom wasn’t a big factor in how much we enjoyed our holiday because we spent most of the time outside somewhere or other!
