If you want "Spain", don't go here
We stayed as little time as we possibly could. Horrible place full to the front door of English-themed bars, horrible room on 7th floor, overlooking an even more horrible place! It was clean however, and the breakfast was varied and good quality. But that was as good as it got. We stayed 12 hours...

lovely resort but the hotel was not good
Calella was lovely would recommend it for a quiet relaxing stay. Mostly families and young couples. The hotel needs a lot of updating though, would not return to it. No fridge in the room. Towels were changed but toilet and bath were not cleaned at all during our stay. Furniture was sparse and dated. Food was bland and using worst ingredients. No good fruit and not many options for young kids. High chairs all had problems with straps that don't work. Pipes noisy could not sleep. Cleaning ladies start moving their trolleys 7.30am making god awful noise in the corridors. No wi fi in room only at the bar.

Lovely hotel, 10 minute walk from the beach.
The staff were very helpful and made sure we could get a meal even though the restaurant was due to close. All meals are buffet style and the serving area does become a little congested when the hotel is full. There is a good variety and I found it particularly healthy with lots of fresh salad and fruit at every meal. On the whole good value for money.

Very well run and friendly hotel.
I really enjoyed my stay at the President. It has some sensible rules, such as no food and glass around the pool, and no reserving of loungers - not that it was an issue in October. The pool area was great. The bar area was great. The restaurant was great and the food was absolutely excellent.
The rooms, and indeed the entire hotel was spotlessly clean - a real credit to the cleaning staff.
The serving and front of house staff were friendly, attentive and helpful.
I found it to be a hotel with high standards, yet very friendly and welcomming.

We have recently returned for
We have recently returned for a 4 day break at Hotel President, Calella. Overall the hotel was very good. The rooms are basic but nice enough decorated, when you are spending all your time in the sun we found it didn't have too much of an impact! The hotel is very clean and never had an issue with housekeeping.
All staff were very friendly, helpful and most spoke a high level of English and other languages.
The food was ok, the dining room was very busy and noisy, we ate out a couple of nights - there are plenty of restaurants which are not overly expensive near by. The hotel entertainment is family orientated, but did not feel out of place being a couple.
We would return to the hotel and Calella for another long weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed our break.

We had a wonderful stay at hotel
We had a wonderful stay at hotel President, I've visited Callella many times, with various hotels, and this was by far the best. Food was excellent, rooms were big and clean, and service was absolutely fabulous!
I'm quite sure we'll be back:)

Незабываемый отдых в Калелье!
Только вернулись из замечательной поездки в Калелью! Очень понравился отель"Президент". В отеле очень чисто, номер убирают каждый день ! Обычный стандартный номер,но для отдыха есть все,что нужно. Питание отличное,каждый день новое меню. Бывают национальные дни. Очень приветливые официанты,очень было приятно общаться со всеми,но особенно с Ивонн. А Вера на ресепшен просто СУПЕР!!! Обязательно поедем в чудесную Калелью ещё раз и только в отель "Президент"!

Nice ***hotel.
Thin walls between the rooms, I could hear my neighbours television. The hallways have a hard floor and walls: quite noisy. Further good simple rooms, good beds and bathroom. Good swimming pool.
Neighbourhood with a lot of touristic bars etc

Agréable mais avec beaucoup de bruit
L'hôtel est plutôt sympa, bien situé et propre mais si vous y allez pour vous reposez .... en effet l'hôtel est mal insonorisé et vous entendez tout ce que vos voisins font.

Flott familiehotell
Sommerferie for storfamilie i alder 3-55 år, med hovedvekt unge voksne. Vi hadde halvpensjon, noe som vi synes er perfekt for en blandet forsamling. Veldig fornøyd med maten, og særlig den rikholdige middagsbuffeten som hver dag kunne tilby noe for enhver smak tross repeterende ukesmeny. Servicemindede og hyggelige personale på alle nivåer. Fornøyd med kveldsunderholdningen for små og store, 3-åringen satte stor pris på minidisco. Grei avstand til stranda, gågater og off. Kommunikasjon. For ungdommene var det et aktivt uteliv kveldstid, og positivt i den sammenheng var god lydisolasjon på rommet ut mot gatestøyen. Absolutt et sted å reise tilbake til på familietur.
