| said: I would recommend this hotel to anyone, Hotel was very clean and modern. Sheets and towels changed daily. The rooms were modern and contemporary with plenty of room to move around in, all rooms have a minibar fridge in which is handy to store additional items in.
The bathroom is very nice with a large double shower, hairdryer and all usual mod-cons.
The food was not bad with plenty of variation although I do believe that it is more of a German Menu.
You will not find a better location for a hotel.
Staff are very friendly and they will go the extra distance to ensure your stay is a pleasant and enjoyable experience.
They had limited entertainment in the Irish bar which consisted of 2 male singers with extremely dodgy haircuts.

| said: We have no complaints about our stay in this hotel. Our room was comfortable and clean with a sea view and sun in the morning on our side of the hotel (odd numbered room). It was not at all noisy at night. Our room was at the end of the hotel, away from the Reception and bars.
We arrived at this hotel after the evening meal had finished but had a 4 course meal provded (waiter served). Other meals were buffet service. We always went into the dining room early and there was plenty of food and choice and plenty of space. The staff were very quick to serve drinks and clear away plates.
All the staff were friendly and helpful.
There are several bars in the hotel. None of them were busy when we were in them.
In the Irish Bar there was the same entertainer each evening. He sang and played various instruments - keyboard, trombone, accordian etc. He was very good but basically played the same songs each evening.
The rooftop swimming pool is small but was never crowded and there were always plenty of sunbeds available. The views from the roof and wonderful.
I had a haircut in the Spa Centre and was very satisfied with the service provided.
We would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a quiet relaxing holiday away from the crowds and noise of Sunny Beach.

| said: Hotel was very clean and ultra modern.the maids did an excellent job of rooms, some days putting towels in various shapes on the beds.
Food was good with plenty of choice but not much in quantity had to wait on quite a few occasions for dishes to be re-filled. Even numbered rooms seem the best choice at moment as we were in an odd number room and unfortunately there is building work going on right next door on that side of hotel.
Staff extremely friendly ,Cosmos rep excellent,book your excursions with Monty, at reception a lot cheaper than tour operator and he knows his stuff.
Will definitely be returning to this hotel next year,

| said: This is a modern hotel which has been open for just over a year, it is modern and fresh although it is beginning to show some wear and tear but it was the end of the season to be fair. The rooms were kept clean and to a very high standard.
The rooms are bright airy and perfect for your holiday needs. A plus is the minibar/ fridge. The Spa Centre is good and price for services is excellent.
The hotel Restaurant lets it down not enough staff to serve drinks or clear up and the food well not the best but not the worst, you can always find something to eat.
The Hotel has stunning views from the H floor the top floor wow stunning views of the old town. I would say the best placed hotel in resort for access to old and new town.
Some staff have limited English but are all very helpful and concerns or requests are dealt with very quick. I reported a problem with my balcony door and they were with me in 10 mins.
The Spa Centre is good and price for services is excellent, other entertainment is limited but good for a hotel of 122 rooms 3 bars.

| said: We are just back from our first visit to Bulgaria and I’m sure it wont be our last. The
Hotel was lovely, basic but comfortable furniture and most importantly very clean. Well
situated for walking over to Old Nessebar, the beach and in general just getting around.
We stayed on a half board basis and found the food to be fine with a few choices each night so you could always find something to eat. The food in the hotel is served warm, this is to accommodate other nationalities staying who eat typically cold food but there was a microwave provided if you wanted the food any warmer. I personally liked this feature because I eat my food very hot. The hotel staff were all really helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
We booked our trips through the animation team, which is run by Monty. We found him to be very pleasant, exceptionally helpful, taking time to explain all about the trips and what was and wasn’t included. They were also much more flexible and happy to detour. The best trips for us were the trip up the Blue Mountains, this was a lovely day out and Monty could tell us all about the local history of the small villages as we passed through.
We took the chair lift up the side of the mountain, the views were spectacular. At the summit we had lunch and a walk round the lake giving us a chance to take in the beautiful countryside before heading back down the mountain by chairlift and on to a market for a spot of shopping.
We also went on the Jeep Safari, again book via Monty and he accompanied us on the trip. We had an absolutely fantastic day out, probably the best day of our holidays. The jeeps pick you up at the hotel, then you are taken off road, given the chance to have a drive of one if you want to and then the fun begins. Your ammunition for the day is as many bottles of water you can fit in the jeep and spraying it at the enemies in the other jeeps.
There is also a lovely visit to a traditional Bulgarian house where you can try some traditional food and buy gifts, again we were made to fee very welcome and shown round a typical Bulgarian house. There was also time for lunch which was lovely, Chicken kebab and salad served with bread, time for fishing, shooting, taking a pedal boat our or just lazing around in the sun and on the way back it was more water fights… brilliant.
All in all we would recommend the Marina Palace Hotel and highly recommend that you book you trips through Monty.
We had a fantastic time and looking forward to our next visit.

| said: The food was never hot! Breakfast choice was very limited indeed. Eating out of the Hotel was very reasonable indeed, so this shortcoming did not bother us too much.
We had a suite which was very spacious indeed. Down side was that these are at the front of the hotel which never gets the sun. Our maid could not have done better and all other staff were excellent. There was NO entertainment, which suited us.
Hotel was very noisy with the atrium carrying the sound both up and down. I would recommend ear plugs if you want to sleep deeply.
Roof-top swimming pool stunning, but very small.
I would not take children to this hotel as I do not feel the barriers surrounding the pool/verandas, etc are adequate.

| said: The best hotel I've ever stayed in.The staff were helpful, the hotel spotless, but the hotel was not finished, lifts did not work and the food was rank,
Would I come again ? without a doubt yes, but on B&B
the top floor facilities are second to non, great pool,great sauna and steam room, great massage facilities.
In all brilliant, but get a new catering manager and some entertainment

| said: Just back from this stunning brand new hotel in a stunning location overlooking Nessebar old town.It is built like a ship and is funished in an ultra modern style.
Lovely bedrooms with Fridge, safe, satalite Tv with 71 channels.(we even saw Wimbledon)The rooms have laminate wooden floors and have duvels on the beds which are wider than normal and have very thick mattresses. Even numbered rooms have the sun on an afternoons which is good if you want to sit on the balcony.
The food was fine for me but they allowed smoking in the dining room and the Germans tended to linger after eating having drinks and cigar like cigarettes. Some were only 3 foot from the food. There was a smaller no smoking room but it only had 5 tables and overlooked a concrete staircase whereas the main room overlooked the sea.This may be changed as the hotel is full because guests will have to queue while smokers occupy tables instead of going to the lounge areas.
The reception staff were lovely and very helpfull.
The swimming pool on the roof was surrounded by decking and there was 2 sunterraces with plenty of sunbeds.The view from here was amazing overlooking the old city,This was a stunning hotel in a stunning location ,7 minutes from the old city,and I would not hesitate in returning.
It is only in the Balkan brochure but we booked with Kwik Travel who use Med.hotels.com and book the flight with which ever company you want. It only cost us £235each as opposed to £435 with Balkan.
We were transfered in a mini bus with the rep from Med hotels.It only took 20 minutes.When we returned to the airport a vw golf transported us back in 15 minutes and we only spent a short time at the airport whereas people on our flight were picked up one hour before us on a coach.The transfer was arranged by hoteltransfer.com for £15 each.We flew with Balkan,but Kwik travel arrange flights on other airlines.
It was brilliant from start to finish and look forward to going back.
