My new favourite hotel!

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 31 Jul 2024via mobile
This is a very special place. We were in a sea facing room which was spotlessly clean and well maintained. The view was to die for and in a peaceful edge of town location. We booked bed and breakfast as we like to go for a walk and eat out locally for dinner. The food at breakfast was very fresh and a great variety to choose from. The chef also cooked eggs fresh any way you wanted them. I would recommend the freshly cooked scrambled egg. None of your powdered egg here!
All staff were lovely and very helpful.
The hotel seemed to have thought of everything even down to having suntan lotion on tap by the pool. Very handy.
This hotel has a no booking of sun beds policy and so there were plenty to go round with umbrellas and tables. There were the odd few who chose to ignore the signs but I would say that every sunbed had just the perfect view and absolutely no need for it.
I noticed a previous comment saying that they thought the clientele consisted of mostly the over 60’s age group we didn’t find this was the case at all.
There was occasional entertainment, in the evening, usually singers and finished around 10:30.
I absolutely can’t wait to return.
Date of stay: July 2024
Room Tip: Definitely book a sea facing room.
Trip type: Travelled as a couple

My wife and I spent a wonderful week in July 2024 at Hotel Artiem Carlos III. The food at breakfast and dinner was really excellent and although buffet style much of the food is cooked to order by the chef. We found all the staff throughout the hotel very friendly and extremely helpful not only the waiters who provided advice on wine and food but the Receptionists who helped plan visits to local tourist attractions. We plan to return again for a further holiday!

Room tip: If you hire a car I suggest you book a space in the hotel car park as the surrounding roads in high season get filled up.

From the first entry to this hotel, there is an atmosphere of it being right. Reception was very efficient, friendly, and informative about the hotel.
The room was extremely well appointed and spotlessly clean.
The restaurant operated a buffet system which worked very well with a range of food to suit all tastes. Shortages were quickly replenished by staff who were very attentive and friendly. Indeed it is the staff who really characterise this hotel. They really do go the extra mile and are really pleasant people.
This is a sustainable hotel, and one can really appreciate the effort that they go to yo fulfill this.
There is no doubt that we would return. It has been a great visit.

This Adult only hotel is in a very quite residential area. Most of the clientele are over 60. The views across the harbour are amazing and can be enjoyed while sitting around the pool and the restaurant .
Buses into Mahon are easy from just a 10min walk away, and from Mahon bus station you can get to lots of places on the Island via bus. Reception will provide you with bus timetables .
Staff at this hotel can’t do enough for you, they are friendly and polite.
Hotel is kept spotlessly clean .
We stayed on a B&B basis, breakfast was varied with lots of choice of all sorts and a chef cooking eggs to your liking and pancakes.
Plenty of restaurants to choose from for evening meals we enjoyed a different venue each night.
Rooms have a safe and a fridge and tea making facilities .
My one negative is the reserving of sun beds , although a label is attached to each bed asking residents not to reserve them there are those selfish people who at 7 o’clock in the morning reserve with their towels and do not use the beds till the afternoon . Whilst there we even witnessed a man and women reserving an extra bed to put their belongings on. We noted the guests who seem to be the worst culprits of this are those returning guests who seem to think it’s their right to do so.
Otherwise a really nice hotel .

Dear Daisy, We would like to thank you for this review about your recent experience in our hotel.

We are overjoyed that you admired the serene views across the harbor, enjoyed the selection at breakfast prepared by our dedicated chef, and found our rooms comfortably equipped with safe, fridge, and tea making facilities. The cleanliness maintained by our housekeeping team and the attentive service provided by our staff are aspects we take great pride in, and it is wonderful to hear that these were highlights of your stay.

However, we are sorry that some aspects of your stay did not meet your expectations. We understand the frustration that can arise from the situation you described regarding the sun beds. While we strive to foster a considerate and enjoyable environment for all our guests, it appears that the message to not reserve sun beds has not been respected by all. We are continually looking for ways to ensure that all guests have equal access to our facilities and appreciate your observations on this matter.

Nonetheless, it is great to hear that you found the location peaceful and well-situated for exploring the island with convenient public transportation options. Our proximity to various restaurants allowing for a different dining experience each evening is something we are glad you were able to take advantage of. We hope that the overall experience at our adults-only hotel, with its array of amenities and enchanting setting, provided you with a memorable stay.

Nothing about your stay at this hotel will be a disappointment. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are great, with a small fridge, hot drink making facilities, toiletries and a safe. Staff work very hard to keep it very clean for you. There is a cold water dispenser to save you buying water and to cut down on plastic waste. Breakfast is amazing, with a selection of several fresh fruit drinks, fresh tea and coffee, cereals, a variety of breads, then hot options including freshly made scrambled eggs, pancakes and omelettes and cold meats and cheeses.
The hotel has its own bar and has regular entertainment, as well as a spa and small gym. The only negative is the guests who ignore the hotels request not to reserve sun beds, and reserve the prime positions each day. A minor irritation on what was a fantastic holiday.

Dear Lesley, We would like to thank you for this review about your recent experience in our hotel.

It is truly rewarding to hear that your stay at ARTIEM Carlos Adults Only was enjoyable.

We are delighted that you found our rooms well-appointed and our team's dedication to cleanliness and guest service to be of a high standard. The introduction of a water dispenser is part of our commitment to sustainability, and we're glad you appreciated this eco-friendly initiative. Additionally, it is wonderful that you loved the extensive and fresh options available during our breakfast service.

However, we understand your concern regarding the sun beds and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. While we strive to ensure all guests enjoy the amenities, it appears there is room for improvement in enforcing our pool area guidelines. We will continue to monitor this situation closely.

Finally, it is great that you took pleasure in the range of facilities we offer, from the relaxing spa to our small but fully-equipped gym. Our bar and entertainment selection are curated to enhance the overall experience of our guests, and we're thrilled that you enjoyed these aspects of your stay.

We hope to welcome you back in the future to ARTIEM Carlos, where the serene harbor views and the gentle sea breeze await.

Great Hotel, great location. Holiday was for 10 nights in early July. The hotel is everything that other reviews state. The hotel is 15 mins by taxi from the airport. The hotel is in a quite residential area with great views over the estuary. The sea view rooms look over the pool and sea and in July have sun in the morning, from 1pm they are in the shade. Air con in room was excellent. People were reserving sunbeds, however there were always beds available. Most people were Bed and Breakfast. The walk to the harbour in Es castell was safe, a little up hill, and could be easily walked in 10 mins. Do not be put off by this. Excellent restaurants in the harbour at Es Castell - different place for every night. You will be advised to book a place for the following night. The area is used mainly by locals. There are NO English type pubs - just local good places to eat and drink - more suitable for the middle age/elderly. Local spar 1 min away - local bar 2 mins away for lunch. Walk to Mahon - this is an easy safe walk 1 x mile along the main road and then 1 x mile along the coast road around to the Port. There are many restaurants places to eat along this coast road at Mahon - It can be walked in 45 mins from Hotel, if you don't go along the coast rd it can be walked in 35 mins - do use the coast rd ! You can catch the bus to the Mahon bus station - this is also easy. Mahon market days appeared to be Tuesday and Saturday until 1pm. You can take a water taxi from the hotel to Mahon - I believe its 20 Euro one way for two people - the hotel will call the water taxi. If you want a quite holiday with good local restaurants in the evening then this is the place. We will return to this hotel
