Admirals floor also comes with hair dryer! Santa fe is cool as well though. And I agree, I would think there'll be another offer along soon...

You would think wouldnt you as this is a selling point (a very bad selling point) but we had 2 rooms next to each other. Guess what, one with a dryer and one without. The second just had screw holes and paint over it as if it was removed years ago.

room service not available in standard rooms, but for about 10 Euros you get breakfast in bed which is much calmer.

I was told separate lift, seaparate check in and free pool towels.

Free pool towels - you could always take a towel from your room

Seperate lifts - Nope, anyone can use the lifts. First few floors were standard, upper were admiral and suites.

Room service - Now this annoyed me. You pay extra for a room which is no different appart from a few perks, which you have to pay extra again for. So you are paying to have the privilege to pay again. On top of this the food is charged at a higher price (apart from standard breakfast) so you are paying to be able to pay again for food that costs more anyway.

I loved the Newport Bay, enjoyed the hotel, loved the location. Would never want someone to waste their money and pay for the admiral floor thinking thet are getting something extra. You just pay extra to get things you would expect in a hotel.

We had a free upgrade to admirals floor just for asking at checkin, and many people get it too.

Hi - having stayed in Newport Bay both in a standard room and Admirals Floor I would never pay the extra - the "exclusive" check in is no quicker than the regular check in due to the increased number of rooms they now class as Admirals Floor.
I would definitely choose New York over Newport Bay both for location and quality - the breakfast scrum at Newport has to be seen to be believed!

its worth a night a Newport bay just to experience the breakfast.
FREE FOOD must pile as much on my plate as possible and make it from one side of the room to the other to beat that 8 year old to the last bun.

Its free food at every hotel, and you'#ll never get as many buns on your plate as ome of the French families! (I think they try and out do the height of the Eiffel toqwer in pain au chocolat!)
