Llac Vrana

We didn't choose this hotel. Our other accommodation cancelled the day before and Hotels.com found this option for us. I wouldn't have chosen a family hotel but we were desperate. Housekeeping was erratic - one day they emptied the bin, another day they made the bed, one day they cleaned the bathroom. Saggy mattresss & a gap between the bed and the wall so the pillow disappeared. Breakfast buffet excellent & lovely breakfast staff. When we went to use the indoor pool, there was nobody on reception. After a few minutes, I went to the main hotel reception & asked them to call the wellness staff. It was clear from her tone on the phone that she was being rude about people complaining. When I returned to the pool, the wellness staff member was rude. The lockers in the changing rooms don't have keys. We were told "kids stole them." There is no private changing room: I was told if I wanted privacy to go in the shower cubicle. The pool is OK but was always packed so we couldn't swim. We paid our tourist tax the night before leaving due to an early start. On departure we returned the swipe card & were asked if we had ordered a lunchbox to go - we hadn't because we hadn't been made aware we could. We would definitely have taken one because of missing breakfast. The rooms at the back are called "park view" but there is no park. There is a carpark which is noisy with frequent delivery trucks leaving the engine running. Also, there is a constant rumble of hotel air-con 24-hours a day.

Klart et af de bedste steder vi har været. Falkensteiner Hotel Adriana har nogle vidunderligt søde mennesker ansat - lige fra receptionisten til tjenerne til rengøringspersonalet til hende, der er i poolbaren. Alle er vildt søde og hjælpsomme. Omgivelserne (poolområdet, restauranten og udendørsområderne) er også fuldstændigt vidunderlige. De er smukke og indbyder til ro og velvære. At stå op, gå ned til den store (og lækre) morgenmadsbuffet, hvor der er alt, hvad hjertet begærer, og så gå ud og sætte sig under træerne i restauranten. Det er noget, jeg håber, jeg kommer til igen, for det var vidunderligt. Der er forskellige "arrangementer" ved restauranten om aftenen, hvilket var ret hyggeligt. Der kom et par og viste noget dans, en ung musiker kom og spillede en aften og en tredje aften stod kokkene og grillede udenfor. Derudover er hotellet beliggende ved stranden, hvor man kan se en virkelig skøn solnedgang. Det tager ca. 15-20 minutters gang fra hotellet til en lille vandtaxi, som kan fragte en til Zadar old town på ca. 10 minutter. Igen, kæmpe anbefaling herfra!
