The tourist trade to Sardinia from the UK is well down this year, our flight was a third full at best. Alghero has two halves with the old town in the middle. The first half you arrive at from the airport is a beach dominated area. Looks fine and can I guess get very busy. The second half is much... more

Carlos V is in a great location, just 5 - 10 minute walk along the sea front to the centre of the old town where there is a great selection of restaurants and bars. Hotel is beautiful, very well-kept, clean and spacious. Pool and bar area are lovely overlooking the sea. Staff were helpful and polite. Food in hotel was... more

The room was of a good size (although we would... more

Paid a couple of Euro's extra for Executive room with the sea view through the Travel Agent and it was well worth it, although we had a row with a very unhelpful lady at reception who had initially put us in... more

My husband and I stayed at the Carlos V for 3 nights and enjoyed it very much. The rooms are spacious with updated interiors. The bed was on the hard-side but huge in size. We were in a sea-side view room with a massive patio - definitely worth the extra money. Breakfast was included in the price of the room... more
