Royal Apollonia by Louis Hotels

The Royal Apollonia hotel was an experience, alright. I mean, it was OK in a 'good enough for my mother-in-law' kind of way. The restaurant was the star of the show – the dishes were so amazing, I almost forgot I was at a hotel and not on a cooking show. The variety and ingredients were top-notch, and they changed daily, keeping my taste buds on a thrilling roller coaster ride. The hotel had some massive pros that almost made me forgive the cons. The exceptional service made me feel like royalty, albeit without the crown and the scepter. The restaurant was so amazing, I considered a career change to a food critic. And the pool area? Let's just say, with that bar, I was half expecting a mermaid to serve my drinks. Now, the cons... oh boy, the cons. The 'suite' room felt like it was last updated during the medieval times, minus the charm. Calling the beach 'tiny' would be a compliment – I've seen bigger sandcastles. And the location? Let's just say, it was so secluded, I thought I'd stumbled onto the set of a lost-in-the-wilderness reality show. Overall, a mixed bag of a hotel experience – like finding a gold coin in a bowl of brussels sprouts
