The NH is the one for a dog. It takes dogs and cats up to 25 kg, at €25 a night each, and our map puts the terminal about 700 m away.
It’s a small hotel without its own restaurant. Breakfast and dinner are at the sister NH Imperial Playa, a minute along the beach, and NH doesn’t say breakfast is in the rate.
That’s why it scores lower than its distance suggests.
Book it if
- You’re travelling with a dog or a cat
- You need a room for three
- You want the beach and a short walk to the ship
Look elsewhere if
- You want dinner in the building
- You want breakfast in the rate
