  Excellent first impressions of this hotel! The lobby was pleasant and service was patient with our terrible Spanish, with the receptionist even speaking a little English! However, we did discover an abandoned earring on the floor of our room, so that concerned me a bit. The pool and the hot tub are both heated (the pool was surprisingly warmer than I expected), and crowded most of the afternoon. I did find that dinner doesn’t open until 8:00 p.m., which is quite late for me personally. Our room was cleaned, though the shampoo and body wash were all out of soap… In all, the staff is very kind and helpful, the pool is a bit small but overall fun, and the rooms are very nice! I would recommend this hotel for a fun time and a family vacation! OHS Hoteles, Promocionar at Hotel Spa Republica, responded to this review Hello Layla thank you very much for your review.

  DON’T STAY OR EAT HERE

  29 Dec 2024

  DON’T STAY OR EAT HERE if you value customer service and want edible food. I asked for a reservation for their Christmas Eve dinner as a guest at the hotel giving them my details. The charge was $115.000 pesos each which is already a very expensive dinner. When I later enquired about the time for my reservation, the team told me that the reservation hadn’t been processed. Not sure why as the last message I received from the team was ‘we go ahead’ when translated into English with no further messages from them or requests for information. It then turns out that the price had dramatically increased to $145.000 pesos! It wasn’t made clear that it had increased and it’s not my local currency. In my panic to not have a Christmas reservation (which hadn’t been processed due to their incompetence) I paid it. What a mistake. They have not explained or apologised why my initial reservation and quote couldn’t be honoured and have been extremely rude and unreasonable. I have never stayed anywhere which would refuse such a reasonable request from a paying guest. I have experienced better service at 2 star hotels than I have here. I had clearly tried to make a reservation at the prior price. To make things worse, the food wasn’t worth the money. I couldn’t eat the main course or the dessert as they were so awful. The steak was honestly the worst I have ever eaten anywhere in the world (as pictured). I struggled through the small part that was edible because I knew how much money it had cost. The buffet courses were better quality but with no labels I wasn’t sure what anything was which was a real shame.Eggs at breakfast were also inedible so I don’t think the bad food quality is restricted to the holiday dinners unfortunately. They don’t care about the guests who stay there or your experience. They just see you as money machines. It is not 4* quality. I would go elsewhere. OHS Hoteles, Promocionar at Hotel Spa Republica, responded to this review Dear Sophie,Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that your experience with us was not as expected.

On the other hand, we sincerely apologize and we will take into account all your comments, both about the service and the quality of the dishes, and we will use them to make improvements. Our goal is to provide a pleasant and comfortable experience for all our guests.We look forward to welcoming you back another time.Best regards,Hotel Spa Republica

  Cancelled booking

  18 Oct 2024

  Our booking was cancelled ten days out from arrival. They lied and said the credit card declined but it had heaps of funds on it and they just took our booking and left us with nowhere to stay!!! They didn't get back to us when we queried it and service was poor.

  Desagradable cumpleaños

  08 Nov 2023

  ENGLISH VERSION(Spanish version below) 9/11/2023!Not worth the high price at all.Do not recommend this place for any special occasions, I went for my birthday and a receptionist treated me really bad , she didnt even say happy birthday as she said she wouldn't give me treat they promised to, a day before. Unkind and bitter experience with her. My boyfriend left a cake for them to bring at 12 and not only did they forgot, but really, the way this woman receptionist treated us when we went to talk this over was really rude.to be fair to the rest of the receptionists there, the name of this person is Jorgelina.The rooms do not look like the pictures uploaded. We got a room with an internal view that was really awful.It felt like being in a lockdown again, no sense of wether is sunny or not, night or day, outside.Must say though, in all fairness, that the people working at the pool, gym, and buffet were the sweetest, most attentive people, really awesome.I wouldn't recommend the hotel due to the administration but not because of them, the service on these teams was amazing.ESPANOL 9/11/2023No vale el alto precio que piden.No recomiendo para nada esta experiencia si vas al hotel para celebrar una ocasión especial, fui para festejar mi cumpleaños y a mi novio le prometieron una "atencion especial" que despues negaron en recepción, sin siquiera desearme un feliz cumple al verme cuando reclamamos. Mi novio habia dejado una torta que se olvidaron de llevar a las 12. La recepcionista de la que hablo nos trato amargamente.Para no ser injusta con los demas en la recepción, si es que el hotel lee esto, el nombre es Jorgelina.Las habitaciones no son como las imágenes muestran, para nada. Nos toco una habitación con una vista interna y fue una mala experiencia, no se sabe si es de dia o de noche, se siente como un encierro.Sin embarbgo debo remarcar que el equipo y el servicio en las areas de la pileta, buffet y gimnasio fueron impecables, gente muy amable, dulce, copada. Nada que ver con el trato de la recepcionista mencionada arriba. La gente de la pileta, un amor, muy atentos y buena onda. OHS Hoteles, Promocionar at Hotel Spa Republica, responded to this review Buenos días Clara, Antes que nada le agradecemos por compartir su experiencia respecto de su estadía y desde ya, lamentamos que la misma no haya sido de su agrado.

  Tired, charmless hotel

  27 Dec 2019

  The one good thing about this hotel and the only reason I did not award a lower rating was that the reception staff member who assisted us was friendly and most helpful. We had originally booked to stay 3 nights, but after the first night, did not wish to stay for more than one night. We had booked a "Superior Quadruple Room", consisting of a main bedroom with a double bed, a living room with two sofa beds, a tiny bathroom, and a small kitchenette. We were allocated room 703, in which the rooms were all small and poky. The double bed in the main bedroom was a small double, not a large double as advertised. The living room was dark and depressing, with a view of the building's inner rectangle. The rooms looked nothing like the artistically dressed and lighted photographs on booking.com's website. The air conditioning in this hotel is centrally controlled, and they kept it off during most of our stay, which was in the heat of December. There was a couple with a baby in an adjoining room, and the sound of it crying was carried through the air conditioning ducts. We would NOT class this as a 4 star hotel, but rather, at a hard push, a 3 star hotel. The breakfast was not great; the sausages made my husband unwell. We did not use the spa, as we could not wait to get out of there. Mar del Plata is a beach resort, with not much else going for it, and this hotel is several blocks away from the beach. I would therefore recommend you book to stay somewhere with a sea view, such as the NH Gran Hotel Provincial, which is gorgeous, and definitely more than deserves each of its 5 stars...
