Amadria Park Family Hotel Jakov

Great rooms, friendly staff, excellent outside pool area but VERY disapointing food. Specially at dinner time. We have 3 kids and one is a very picky eater so we are very used to the need to figure out what we can do to make life easyer for her but on this vacation all 3 dont like the food...and we parents arent impressed either. We are staying here right now, we are 4 nights in and have 5 more to go and we basicly have decided to go out to dinner for the rest of the trip to boost morale. We have given up. The kids dont even like the margarita pizza... For the price we are paying I expected a lot more.

A great hotel but with one major letdown! Spacious, clean interiors and decor. Space for kids to run around...we had a 9 and 11 year old and any kids activity was based around smaller children in the hotel next door which you can use. The games rooms with PS5s were good. Food was varied and good at the buffet. A few negatives and suggestions for improvement... 1. The buffet food was often cold as hotplates were not warm enough to keep food warm and a lot of food was batch Cooked rather than freshly cooked in small batches as and when food started to run low...lots of chefs behind the counter not doing much.. chips and pancakes etc were cold . Easily remedied if the chefs just cook less more often 2. Kids club next door list activities happening but these do not really happen and no organised sports i.e archery, bowls etc. this would be good for slightly older kids plus animation team was really nowhere to be seen part from sitting in the kids room, I suggest they need to be more proactive and get out around the pool area. 3. Lastly and the major complaint....very strong smell of smoking in lobby near lift area. Supposedly it is illegal to smoke inside a hotel. I know what smoking smells like and this was not just someone smelling of smoke on their clothes but actual strong smoke. With all the effort the hotel goes to to present itself as clean (which they do well) this is a major letdown! This smell occured at least 3-4 times. On the final time it was strongest and I followed the smell and it was from a service area/ door behind the lifts which supposedly the staff use for entrance to hotel etc.... the smell was very strong and if they weren't actually smoking in the hotel, staff were definitely smoking right by the entrance allowing the draft through the open door take the acrid smell into the lobby. I complained to the duty manager about this and she got very defensive saying it was illegal to smoke in hotel and that no one was smoking but I can 100% assure you that they were. I hope the general manager can address this as it really places a black mark against an otherwise very clean hotel.

Great for families with small kids!
