The rooms are not that good as on the picture. The mini bar was completely empty, also there is no kettle or even cups... or anything to make a tea or coffee. My room viewing was on rear side , where also have a building work and was very noise. On my booking shows like breakfast is included , but on the reception, staff say 'it's not". ... I'll not visit again that hotel !

Only the door of my room has to be changed because I was afraid to be locked in or out of my room and the door knob is going to fell of. Every other detail of the room or the hotel was just fine I stayed just one night, so.

No AC, poorly maintained.
AC doesn't work at all. Uncomfortable stay as a result. The shower is falling apart with tiles literally moving on the walls with huge gapping cracks.

Redelijk tot goed hotel, geen vier sterren waard.
Verblijf in Festa is oké, minder tevreden over de kwaliteit van het ontbijt. Te beperkt wat betreft de broodjes en niet alles vers b.v warm eitje is lekker maar niet een ei dat er vanaf zeven uur al ligt. Hotel kamer had gebreken in de badkamer, bij receptie gemeld,werd binnen uur opgelost. Bij aankomst slechts 1 paar handdoeken op de kamer terwijl het een tweepersoons kamer betrof

Very happy with my stay at Hotel Festa! The rooms were ok, but my room didn't get clean one time even though the tag was left on the door knob. Very pleased with one of the reception guys Velizar - he is very nice, friendly and provides an exceptional customer service! Special thanks to him!
