We arrived at the Paladim 10.15 on the 24 september 2009. As we would have expected the room was not ready. We left cases at reception and went to the cafe bar 20 yds away for a drink. We went back to hotel they told us that the room would be ready by 12.00. We then went to the Modello... more

Just returned from 2 weeks at Paladim. If you want clean, good sized apartments in a good location and value for money then this ticks all the boxes. Only complaints were beds and the stupid rule of the pool opening at 9.00am. Like a previous reviewer, the dozen young idiots from England were completely out of order and I think... more

The apartments are in a very built up area with the new town (strip) in one direction and the old town in the other. We went to the Strip one night and only stayed there 20 minutes and went straight back to the... more

As some people have already said, the front of the hotel leaves alot to be desired, but the reception area is big and clean, very dark. Our apartment was a 1 bed apartment and overlooked the pool. It was VERY basic but clean. There was a sewerage smell in the hall and bathroom when we arrived but seemed to go... more
