H10 Vintage Salou

H10 Vintage Salou Poolside entertainment

Arian and Ivan were absolutely fantastic and really made the pool side Entertainment experience unforgettable. They were friendly, energetic, and full of jokes that kept everyone laughing from start to finish. Their enthusiasm was contagious, and they created such a fun, welcoming atmosphere for everyone. There was a great variety of activities to suit all ages and interests, so everyone could join in and have a brilliant time. Arian and Ivan made sure everyone felt included, and they always had a way of bringing a smile to everyone's face. Their humour, energy, and dedication made the whole experience unforgettable. I would highly recommend H10 Vintage Salou, especially with Arian and Ivan leading the poolside fun!

A brilliant hotel!

A fabulous hotel! We had a wonderful 2 week stay. Would highly recommend. Friendly and welcoming. Location: excellent. 5 min walk to beach. 5 min walk to busy shop/ bar area. 10-15 min walk to Old Town. 10 min walk (would be less but hot and slightly up hill!) to Monday market. Easy access to bus to Tarragona. Atmosphere: quiet, friendly, peaceful roof pool area. Occasional pool loud music but fun for aerobics.Other times mixture of jazzy type background music. Easy listening. Room: we had 3 adults to room. Not pool view. Quite tight on space but worked for us. 2 proper beds, not put up which was great. Found beds firm but comfortable. Nice bedding. Bathroom spacious. Good, walk in shower. Always hot water anytime. Shower gel, shampoo and conditioner provided. Soap, comb and dental boxes, hairdryer provided. TV Spanish- didnt use. Think Netflix may be available at a cost but not sure. Rooms tidied daily and on request. Good balcony with drying rack and 2 chairs and table. Very clean. Walls quite thin! Could hear arguments next door but on the whole very quiet. No rowdy returners at night. Service and cleaning very good. Excellent air-conditioning with 4 or 5 settings. On all the time unless you turn off. Food: excellent. Amazing selection of fresh fruit daily, peaches, nectarines, apricots, pears, apples, grapefruit, lemon, bananas, pineapple, plums with extras such as cherries/ grapes on occasion. Always good choices. Chef specials on deserts weekly (fabulous apple crumble and chocolate fountain!) and meat choice freshly cooked daily. Excellent selection of deserts. We thought food was excellent. Service good. Most staff very friendly and smiley. Purchase of drinks easy. No drinks provided at lunch or dinner but available to purchase. Lots of drink choice at breakfast: tea, coffees, juices from machine but also special juices such as mango, grapefruit, tomato, coconut, cranberry on rotation. Breakfast was excellent. Fried eggs, pancakes and omelette cooked fresh. Lots of bread choice at all meals. Payment: if not all inclusive then hotel is cashless so pay by tapping card or when checking in you have chipped wrist band that unlocks room door ( fantastic idea). You wear all the time, even in pool. You can add cash to this too so you don't need to carry cards around. You just scan band. Easy. Pools: we didn't use roof area much as too hot for us. Pool very shallow. Just for dipping. Nice atmosphere and bar available. Parasols provided for some beds. Opens at 10. We noticed people queuing from about 9.30 to get beds. If Parasols not wanted then probably could arrive later. Main pool opens at 9. Beds were always available or extra deckchairs available. However, limited parasols so if wanted a specific space or parasol, then people queue from 8.20. It was really annoying to see people sit by parasols that they never opened! Especially by poolside. Attendants did remove towels on saved beds. Sometimes more than others. Nice poolside atmosphere and very friendly staff. Full of fun and joy. Toilets available by pool. Also can refill water bottles from machine by pool. Beds can be reserved if have a disability and there is seat available to lower a person into the pool. Lovely communal area with giant tv showing current sports. Air conditioned throughout. Nightly entertainment. Varied daily. 9.30 pm or 10 pm. Finished by 11pm or sooner. This really is where we think there could be something from 9pm. Also bar closes at strictly 12pm. We would have preferred 1am. However, we did find nearby bars which are open a lot later. We just would have stayed at the hotel longer if later bar. Shopping: plenty of choice but beware of strict siestas. Most shops open 9 am ish until 1.30 but then closed until 5 pm. Then some open until midnight or later some close 9/ 10 pm. Found perfume at good price at shop in old town rather than big store Farnens on sea front. We went to market on Monday 9-2. Take a fan! Out of hotel, turn right. Walk uphill (slightly incline) at top bear left then first right. Big. Good value. Lots of clothing. Cambrils: we took bus from beachfront by McDonalds and same side. 3 euro. Be sure to mention market as some buses don't go as far as the market on Wednesdays. We had to get off at port of Cambrils and get on bus immediately behind to go further on. Probably 10 to 15 min walk up from beach if not. But very hot. Shopping nice by port. Siestas in place so most things shut 1.30-5. Pretty place. We got taxi back to Salou which was 25 euro to hotel. You can get ferry from port area to Cambrils too. Tarragona- loved! 3.5 euro on bus. Caught by hotel. Go out hotel, turn left. By pizza place go left. Need right side. Bus stop 3 min walk up Tarragona street. Reception can give you a map and times but not far. This is fast bus and air conditioned. Tarragona is lovely. We went in day but think would be lovely from 5pm as lots closed in afternoon for siesta. Stop at local bars for map. Out of bus station turn left then 2nd right at island. Rambla Nova, head up past bronze men Statue. Keep going up to top under umbrellas. At top lovely sea view. Walk left to find amphitheatre. Head left of that and down to find cathedral and old town with little shops and narrow, traditional streets. Big city. Sites open until 8 or 9pm. Things closed on Mondays. Check. Buses run back late or taxis are about 25- 28 euros back to Salou. If travelling a lot by bus get T10 card from information centre on sea front. This gives you 10 journeys and can be used by whole party. It reduces journeys to much cheaper price 1 euro or less. It is cheaper again if you top it up again. Beach: we only went to main beach which is very busy. Beds are 10 euro per day per person. Parasols are 10 euro per day. 6pm you are asked to leave. Expensive! Lots of people buy parasols - big ones around 24 euro ir less and sit on sand ir buy chairs. Worth it if going daily. Clean beach. No seaweed. Clear, very warm water. Shallow for some way out so safe for kids. Watersports available. Toilets readily available by beds and beach bars. We found Salou very friendly. Nice walk way by beach past 'point' statue. It felt safe at night and in the day at the beach. Lots of bars with live entertainment, karaoke, quizzes, bingo, lively, family friendly, just eating or drinking, suitable for young and old. It seemed to come to life at night. Very busy at midnight! Very warm all night too. Lots of bars. Recommend House Of Illusion. Goid value with meal, drinks and show. They also have live singers in their bar area at night. A great hotel in a lively, lovely place!

Overall great, relaxed experience

I came here with my boyfriend and our friends. This is a lovely hotel. The air conditioning and decor in the reception is especially nice. The room was fine. I found the mattress to be too firm, but thats a matter of preference and my boyfriend actually loved it. Housekeeping was diligent although our sheets werent actually changed, though we stayed 7 nights. The noise level was excellent until our final night, where we acquired noisy neighbours but that isnt the hotels fault. We didnt hear any noise at all from the street or outside the hotel, which is so important to us! The clientele is generally much older. We are all in our 30s but Id say we were some of the youngest people there. We were happy about this as were not huge party goers and it meant a quiet night sleep most of the time, but this should be kept in mind if youd like a lively hotel. The entertainment was silly and fun, we really enjoyed it! And both pools are really lovely and well kept. You need to be quick to get sunbeds in the morning, or else wait until about 4pm and there will be plenty. We didnt love the breakfast, however it was definitely edible and there is some choice, again it was down to personal preference. We only had lunch once at the hotel and it was good. The location is excellent, its within walking distance to everywhere youd want to go. The taxi feature at the front desk is very efficient and we used this a couple of times. Reception was very helpful in directing us to our next leg of our trip. The hotel is well kept and overall we really enjoyed our stay, I would recommend it.

It's been a week since we got home, and all we can think about is going back to Salou!

We stayed at H10 Vintage for 11 nights and had an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Every member of staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We were always greeted with a smile, and nothing ever seemed like too much trouble. Reception is open 24/7, and knowing we could call at any time in an emergency gave us real peace of mind. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed (fresh towels and toiletries were provided, including shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, and hand soap). The air conditioning worked perfectly, which was very much appreciated in the summer heat. The room also had a mini fridge, a TV with Spanish and English channels (we were even able to connect our YouTube and Spotify accounts), a safe, a decent sized balcony, and the room felt very secure with the door locking automatically when you leave (and an extra lock on the inside). The wristbands we received at check-in also worked as room key and can be used to pay around the hotel, which was incredibly convenient. There were a few small (personal) downsides, but none of them affected how much we enjoyed our stay. The hairdryer was not powerful enough for drying or styling curly hair, there were no small face towels (so bring your own), the WiFi stopped working properly in the evenings, and the room felt a little cramped for three adults. The walls were also quite thin and we were able to hear noise from neighbouring rooms. The main pool was one of our favourite areas. It was always clean, spacious, and open from 9 am until around 6.30 pm, while the rooftop pool opened from 10 am. There were plenty of sunbeds available at both pools, although there could have been a few more umbrellas for shade. A special mention goes to the bar team, who were always professional, friendly, and made some of the best cocktails and smoothies we had during our holiday. The hot snacks were also delicious, especially the ham pizza! The entertainment team truly made our holiday even more enjoyable. A huge thank you to them for all of their hard work and endless energy. Every morning after breakfast they got everyone moving with aqua gym, pool games, bingo, and plenty of other fun activities. There were also evening shows every night, although we didn't get the chance to watch them as we were out and about. The food was another highlight. While the selection was slightly smaller than at other hotels we stayed at, the quality was excellent and everything we tried was delicious. A special shoutout to Antonio, who beautifully plated the lava cake (which was absolutely divine - I enjoyed it so much I went back for seconds haha). He was always smiling, just like the rest of the catering team, who made every meal feel welcoming. Like many H10 hotels, this hotel also offers a spa, sauna, and gym. We didn't use the spa or sauna, but we did visit the gym. Unfortunately, it was a bit disappointing. Most of the equipment was focused on cardio (there was a treadmill, bikes, and a rowing machine). There was only one weight machine with built in weights, which was very challenging to figure out how to use. It would have been great to see a bit more variety and maybe some free weights for guests who enjoy strength training. Overall, we had an amazing stay at H10 Vintage and would happily return without hesitation (especially around Sant Joan to watch all the fireworks and live music from the rooftop again). We would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Salou and who wants to stay at an adults-only hotel!
