I didn't enjoy sleeping on the hard plastic wrapped bed. Very sterile and stripped down. I also hated that there was no hot water kettle or coffee maker in the room. It was a pain having to walk to the lobby for hot water. The breakfast was good though

This hotel was where we stayed the night before our 6am flight home, so we were mainly there for proximity to the airport. It's still 16 minutes drive from the airport but the closest I could find. The staff were really helpful in lining up the shuttle to/from the airport, but the shuttle is pretty expensive, at 55 Euros at 4:30am. (35 Euros during the day.) The room was clean and we ate both lunch and dinner in the hotel dining room. The food is reasonably priced and decent. Breakfast was included in our room but since we left at 4:30am, they provided us with a packed breakfast to take with us. My only wish was that there had been a way to walk out the back of the hotel down to the beach. I gather that it may be less safe to walk on the beach at night, but we would have gone down there during the afternoon if we'd been able to get through there.

I returned to the Saracen for the second time with my family. I strongly recommend for family with kids, great fun with the animator team both on the beach with music, exercises and in the evening with dancs and entertainment. The food was different and lots of variety however often it was not very warm and not much fresh fruits in the morning.

What a great hotel!! The staff is excellent and so helpful, from the staff at the reception desk to the servers at the buffet. It is a fun and friendly atmosphere of large and small groups. The decor is eclectic with a strong sense of design. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Beautiful views of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
