Overall, passable experience for a 5* hotel.
The good:
- Big rooms and nice views
- Big bathroom
- nice location walking distance from all key spots
- nice staff (except the luggage person who seemed to be very angry)
The bad:
- crazy you need to pay 40e to use the SPA, you’d assume that payinf 300e for the room would give you access to the SPA too but no.
- shower was leaking and “flooded” the bathroom - nothing serious but annoying
- they had no hard pillows so all pillows were soft and thinner than paper

The hotel is highly recommended. Very friendly ladies at check-in who even gave us a free room upgrade. Everything at breakfast was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Room with balcony and wonderful view of the pool, sea and sunset. Old town of Alghero is about 10-15 minutes walk away. Free parking at the hotel. Everything was great and therefore full points.

We’ve just had 9 days at this beautiful hotel in a double superior room with balcony overlooking sea and pool. Room was large, modern and clean. Lovely large bathroom with complimentary products and hairdryer. Mini bar and safe also. Huge storage / hanging space in wardrobes. We asked for a rollaway bed for our daughter which was kindly provided.
All staff were lovely and very helpful. Pool is large with plenty of sun beds and never an issue finding one no matter what time we went to the pool (opens at 10). We hired a car and always able to park near hotel or in their small car park.
Walk to old town is a gentle 15 min stroll along the stunning seafront road with market sellers at night, bars and restaurants en-route too.
Overall a wonderful stay in beautiful Alghero and will surely return to this hotel.

We don’t have AC in the room for the entire 4 nights and no water for 18 hours.

I don’t understand why this hotel it’s listed as 5 starts. We stayed one night without been able to shower because it did not have water. We had to sleep without flossing the toilet after everyone in the room used it. The AC did not work

I am writing this complaint regarding my recent stay at the hotel Smy Carlos V Wellness & Spa Alghero, which was not satisfactory, due to faulty information of accommodation description provided on the hotel website.
My boyfriend and I had the misfortune of staying at your hotel from the 25th to the 29th of August 2023, firstly at room number 534 and then at room 529. During our stay we encountered a number of unsatisfactory service levels that I think you should know about.
When we first arrived at the hotel, after checking in, I asked the receptionist if they could take our bags to our room. She answered in a very rude way and asked me if they were too heavy to carry. I politely asked if they did or did not have that service, which I know you do have, and if they could take them to our room. At the end the bags were taken as requested.
The arrival at room 534 was a very unpleasant experience. The room has badly dated features and decor. The room view, that was supposed to be a garden view, was simply miserable. A mistreated garden with burnt grass. This is not what you are expecting from a five star hotel nor what is announced on the website pictures. More importantly, the bidet wasn’t working properly as the water didn’t flush. The same happened with the sink. The toilet’s water kept running nonstop and the bed was very uncomfortable. We decided to give it a try at this bedroom, however the conditions were simply unacceptable.
We also had a very sour experience wit

Overpriced room with an amazing view but outdated furnishings and air conditioner that didn't work, even after being"fixed". Worst bed I've slept on since camping on a roll out mat 20 years ago. Restaurant and bar service were great when available. Disappointed we couldn't get a meal at the hotel at 9.25pm, informed that the restaurant closes at 9.30pm, which I'm sure most would agree is a little too early for a European summer, particularly when there is no room service available. Location made up for many of the hotel's shortcomings.

Exceptional staff. Great service. Great room. The breakfast is terrific. My family and I had a fantastic experience.
Gym leaves something to be desired and there is a lawn beyond the pool area that looks unfinished. Given how great this hotel is overall, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that the lawn is probably a project in progress and will look very different sometime soon.

The Carlos V Hotel is one of the most brilliantly located properties in Alghero, it's right on the sea front, with amazing Mediterranean views it's in a relatively quiet residential area so total silence (and amazing sleep) in the night time.
The facilities are wonderful: our room was huge, with nice added benefits like bathrobes, slippers, quality toiletries, bottled water (still & sparkling) provided daily. Cleanliness was incredible - the hotel obviously has high standards - this was one of the cleanest hotel rooms I ever stayed in.
The staff are wonderful, very friendly and accommodating - especially the reception staff .
Food - we didn't avail of breakfast or the half board evening meals... but we did have lunch in the poolside bar a few times, and it was excellent quality, and reasonably priced. They also have a fantastic wine list!

This is a very well kept hotel in a beautiful location, and I literally had no complaints while staying there. However, upon returning to my home country, it transpired that Smy Carlos V Alghero had charged my credit card (presented on check in) for the two night stay, despite me having prepaid using my debit card upon booking. Honest mistake, I assumed, and quickly made contact with the hotel's reception and accounts department. I received a couple of emails from reception to the effect of "we're working on it" and almost two weeks later, and without any correspondence, I noted that I had been refunded a sum of money similar to the amount charged to my card, but not the same. When I sought answers from the hotel, they did not reply to my email some six days ago. All I wanted was clarity and fairness, and they declined to provide it. Even when I made it clear that I would be forced to leave a negative review unless they at least had the decency to explain their mistake, they chose not to respond. In summary, this is a beautiful hotel with courteous staff, but I have been left extremely disappointed with the lack of transparency they have provided regarding a financial error on their part.

Not what I would call a five star hotel. Hotel bedrooms a bit dated and pool area needs refurb, garden very bare and wall needs painting. We found the staff on reception unhelpful, asked about car hire one day and the lady rang the car company asked if they had the car we want, they said no and she just hung up without asking us if we would like a different type of car. We also got a telling off/threatening letter in our room for using our own iron. We didn’t appreciate the tone of the letter. No tea/coffee facilities in room unless you pay per week. Best thing about this hotel were the friendly breakfast staff, thank you. Breakfast was just average however with not much choice. Being honest I have stayed in much better 4 star hotels and won’t be back to this one.

This hotel is beautiful if you don’t look too deeply. The facilities were nice, especially the roof top lounge bar. And dinner at the restaurant had refreshing vegan/vegetarian options that were well-prepared after heavy meals outside. But, the room was not up to expectations. It was not dirty, but not fully clean either with a layer of dust on the kettle. And the “family room” is a regular room with rollaway bed. Finally breakfast was weird...on the first day they forgot to heat the coffee and another day they didn’t heat the hot plates under the scrambled eggs and forgot to put the bread out. I get the feeling the team was just tired and didn’t want to be there at that time. And finally, while the walk to the old town is gorgeous, it’s not something you want to do multiple times a day. But, there is nothing near by, so it’s walk or eat at the hotel. If we came back, we would consider other options. Yet, I can imagine that business travelers would like it.

Balcony view is spectacular. Walking distance from city centre.
Breakfast is a bit unvaried. Coffee service is much too stressful.

Lovely location, very welcoming staff, good facilities available. Rooms are a good size and good selection of drinks in the fridge with soft drinks replenished daily for no charge. U fortunately, no tea or coffee making facilities in our room. Air conditioning didn’t go quite low enough for me but overall loved the hotel and would definitely use it again if we went back to this area.
