Hotel Iorana Tolache

So we stayed at this hotel for 5 days in June 2024. We paid more than 550 € just to be upgraded to a superior room, given some comments that we had read. Upon arrival, we were very warmly welcomed by the temporary manager, William, an amazing person who has done everything he could to make our stay “pleasant”. Unfortunately, the state of the hotel didn’t make things easy for him. We were the only guests during alll five days. The hotel has a restaurant with only 3 dishes. On the first night , William cooked us a dinner ( no cook- he was all alone- ) consisting of a piece of meat and rice . That’s all. The hotel will charge us 20€ per person ! No heating in the restaurant, it was ice cold. Breakfast was in no way up to 3* hotel standards. No buffet. A pot of hot water and a pot of instant coffee. Some toast, low quality jam , fruit and eggs on request. Regarding the room, bathtub had no adapted plus so impossible to have a bath. ( William provided us with one on day 4) . Very shabby faucets for bathtub and shower. Water was only warm if we requested to heat it up 3/4 hours in advance. Most of all, heating in the room wasn’t working so with a negative temperature outside at night it was really freezing. Nothing was done about it all through our stay. Also, the hotel is far from the town center, you just can’t get there on foot, so you need either a taxi or your own car. All in all, stay away from this hotel, we are on a round the world trip for 6 months and this is one of the worst hotels we’ve stayed at. Chose any other nice hotel closer to the town center . But we want to thank William for trying so hard to make us feel good. Had it not been for him, we would have given this hotel an even worse appreciation.

I did not stay here. Room was hot, no hot water Restaurant was not operating. Receptionist agreed room were not acceptable and no charge would be made. We went elsewhere. But charges were made anyway

El hotel, es limpio, cómodo y ofrece un buen desayuno, lo único complicado es llegar porque hay que cruzar un río que no está en la ruta de Google Maps y que en esta época estaba seco, pero se crece según el clima. Una vez u icado el camino se hace mucho más fácil.

Positives - Team were lovely, friendly and efficient. Food was good. Pool was lovely, very cool and clean. Bed comfortable. Less positive - Walk of 20-25 mins in deep ish sand and over a creek in pitch black. Doors hard to open. No air con or safe in rooms Very week Wi-Fi The weaknesses are probably to be expected on the desert but worth noting and hence why on balance I’ve gone for an average review.
