The hotel is perfectly located just a few minutes walk to the centre and the beach. Rooms are nice and spacious with a fridge and tea making facilities. The hotel spa and gym are perfect for a short break away.

Breakfast and rooms good. Front desk staff pretty much incompetent, apathetic, and unhelpful except for shorter, older woman. She was good. If you go to the spa don’t go in the water as several men were doing inappropriate things in both pools. Disgusting!

Honestly one of the best gay hotels ibhave ever stayed ever, from the rooms, the pool, the breakfast, the spa! Everything was perfect! The only think i hope they fix is making the parking opening easier, like i had to get down from my car and do a whole thing everytime, also towels should be free for guests, just like the spa i didn't get the 8 euro charge but all of that is minimal compared to how amazing the hotel is!

Ritual is a great place to stay. This was my third time I’ve stayed there and can’t fault it. Staff are friendly and helpful. Hotel in general is very clean. Location is very convenient for the town centre only 5-10 minutes walk. Only a few hundred metres from many bars, restaurants and clubs. Only downside is it can be hectic when they have events on. I was there during the mad bear festival, hotel was sold out and as a result the sunbeds and areas around both main pool and rooftop pool were so busy it was difficult to get any beds. Would still heavily recommend the hotel just avoid when big events are happening.

Bad customer service

Very poor experience. I only stayed there one night and the reception staff were unfriendly and difficult to deal with. The internet didn't work and it took nearly 2 hours to get them to change me to a room in another area of the hotel where it was working, but then it stopped there again in the morning. Really terrible service - will never stay there again.

Lovely friendly and fun hotel in a great location

We always enjoy our time at the hotel, the staff are lovely and the service is good. The rooms are spacious and the food options good at the buffet style breakfast, lunch and dinners. The gym requires some updating, but the spa and pool area is lovely. The rooms are comfortable, but please if anyone who can help is reading this, whatever the team clean the rooms with or odourise them with is absolutely horrendous. Please stop using the fragrance, it is so strong and awful, it would give you a migraine without opening the windows as wide as possible throughout your stay, it's honestly a massively off-putting trait to the hotel.
