H Top Alexis is an aging budget hotel located a five-minute walk from the beach in Lloret de Mar. Its super low rates draw a mixed crowd of young partiers and couples on a tight budget -- but rooms are tired and dated (think: thin bedspreads, tube TVs, and poor soundproofing) and there have been complaints of lack of cleanliness. Property highlights include a plunge pool; three above-ground pools with a bar area on the rooftop, and a restaurant serving a decent buffet. All-inclusive guests can use the facilities at sister hotels in town, which is probably good news, as the hotel is in urgent need of extensive renovations.

The H Top Royal Beach is a large budget hotel located down the street from Fenals Beach. It is not as upscale as its advertised 4-star rating suggests, but it does have a few nice perks. Highlights here include a rooftop featuring two whirlpools, a bar, and loungers; a nice pool with an area for kids; and a kids’ club offering activities both for kids and teenagers. Rooms are adequate overall, with furnished balconies, generic decor with wood accents, and air-conditioning. However, all units have small tube TVs, there’s a fee for Wi-Fi, and lower floors can get noise.

H Top Royal Star is a large budget hotel catering to families and couples, but popular during peak season among groups of young partiers. Rooms are spacious, bright, and perfectly adequate, with decent bathrooms, air-conditioning, and balconies. In-room amenities, however, are basic, and walls paper thin. Hotel highlights include two small pools, a buffet restaurant, a small spa, and a kids’ club -- but this hotel is far from upscale, as its official 4-star rating suggests. Sister property H Top Royal Beach offers better rates, a location closer to the beach, and an overall more relaxing atmosphere.

While there are other all-inclusive resorts in the area, few offer as many great amenities as this hotel, including several large pools; a great water park complete with a pirate ship and slides; and a spa. The hotel underwent renovations in 2014, and most rooms are cheerful and contemporary, with flat-screen TVs and balconies. However, some common areas -- such as the restaurant -- could use an update as well. Location in a quiet part of Lloret, within walking distance of the city center, is a plus -- but guests should note that there are a few pesky fees, including for Wi-Fi, and for use of tennis courts and in-room safes.

Hotel GHT Aquarium & SPA is a family-friendly budget hotel located a short walk from Fenals Beach. It features 240 rooms with balconies, air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and 2015-renovated decor. Features include a nice pool, a decent buffet restaurant, and a small fitness center. The highlight, however, is the adults-only spa, which offers a heated pool, heated loungers, a steam room, whirlpool, and sensation showers. For beachfront digs, consider Hotel Santa Marta, though rooms there are dated.

Gran Hotel Don Juan is a huge value property conveniently located a short walk form the beach and the city center. It features a wide array of amenities, including two pools, three restaurants, a kids’ club, and poolside massages. But rooms are small and dated, and soundproofing is lacking. Low rates and all-inclusive meal plans draw groups of young partiers, so those looking to spend a quiet, relaxing vacation by the pool may want to stay elsewhere.

With a pool, a kids’ club, an adequate buffet restaurant, and a small spa, the H Top Palm Beach is a decent pick for families and couples on a budget. Rooms, however, are hit or miss. While Superior Rooms have been renovated and feature air-conditioning, nice bathrooms, and updated tiling on floors, Standard units are tired and dated. Location within walking distance of the beach and the city center is a plus, but the property is on a busy road, so light sleepers may want to request a room at the rear of the hotel.

Hotel Acapulco is a solid mid-range resort in a central location in Lloret de Mar. It is certainly not a four-star hotel as advertised, but its rooms are clean and bright, and it does offer a few nice amenities, including a pool with a whirlpool and an area for kids, a large restaurant serving a decent buffet daily, and a tiny spa with one treatment room. There are family-friendly apartment-style rooms complete with a kitchenette, a furnished terrace, and a separate living area. However, decor is basic and generic overall; exterior-facing rooms in the lower floors can get street noise; and a few rooms have not been renovated since 2011, and still feature dated decor.

Gran Hotel Monterrey is an upscale property located within walking distance of the city center. Most of its 200 rooms feature flat-screen TVs, minibars, terraces with garden or ocean views, and wooden floors. But lower-category rooms (Comfort and Superior) are underwhelming for a hotel in this price range. Property highlights include a spa complete with hydrotherapy and treatment rooms; a pool surrounded by quiet gardens; a Mediterranean restaurant with outdoor seating; a casino; a beach club; and an outdoor lounge. While the hotel offers fitness activities during the summer months, it lacks a fitness center.

The four-pearl Sant Pere del Bosc Hotel & Spa offers a relaxed and elegant atmosphere among the forests above Lloret de Mar. The Catalan monastery-like hotel is a 20-minute drive from the heart of Lloret del Mar and its beaches, making this a property that caters to travelers with cars who prefer to primarily relax on-site. The 19 elegant rooms are individually decorated and spacious with stocked mini-fridges and some sea views, but they lack coffee- and tea-making facilities. A restaurant with a continental breakfast buffet, pool, and spa allow guests to stay entertained without having to leave the property. Hotel Acacias Suites & Spa is a good alternative for couples who want a hotel with a gym and a location closer to the beaches and city center.
