Marina Palace Affiliated by Melia (ex. Sol Marina Palace)

Not been back a week yet but went for a week , that was a mistake I didn’t want to come home could have stayed longer O my goodness . Wasn’t too sure about this hotel when I had booked only having the roof top pool with sunbathing areas , I shouldn’t have been , Fan bloody tastic Tui only rate it as a 3 star plus Well we went to Cape verde to a Rui 5 in June and this hotel was much superior the 5 star was poor compared to this Always got a sun bed up on the roof pool area The most fantastic scenery from up there Drink was very good Food was lovely Not loads of choice but certainly plenty of lovely food Fresh fruit was beautiful Very a mad rush in the restaurant Went to the fine dining one night that was really good too Met some lovely people there very friendly When we got there I had asked for a a double bed a quiet high up room with a nice view Got the double bed but looked on to the street I was dissapointed when we got there but that was soon forgotten when we went upto the roof area and saw the view Amazing So we give this little hidden gem 10/10 for the hotel and staff all lovely Adults only was very peaceful too , never ventured far but there was plenty to do and see in easy walking distance We will go back to this hote and Bulgaria in general we loved it Airport was straight forward

A pretty great experience with a few caveats There is the odd problem with the room - just little decorating details or maintenance tissues (we had a part of the coving was collapsing (326) and in bathroom the cement under tiling was only partly painted but nothing serious. The entire building has an outer ‘wall’ made of glass panels which are clearly really hard to clean - bad design Food was all pretty good but scrambled eggs were really odd (a strange chemical taste) Gluten free was signed but the best lady to talk to on these issues was away for the first 2 nights and staff clueless! Train them to know/understand these issues and I’d have had a much better idea of labelling Staff generally lovely and a comfy bed We love NESSEBAR too! Would recommend!

Lovely hotel with great views over to old Nessebar. Adults only gave a nice relaxing atmosphere. The skybar was such a lovely area to sit day or night. The restaurant was so clean and the food was always refreshed and good selection. The outside space also gave a good option to dine outside. There is a microwave to heat food if not hot enough which i always find helpful. The staff throughout the hotel are so helpful and welcoming. Special shout out to Tatyanna and her staff as they really could not do enough for you. Kris and Luka in the roof bar so nice and so attentive. The area is good for exploring the Old town and sunny beach if you want. The beaches provide great swimming options for all levels as can wade out far before need to swim. Really loved the hotel and surrounding area, would definitely return.

It was a lovely, well-appointed hotel with excellent facilities. The location was superb. The food was acceptable, though a little bland, but still perfectly edible. On the whole, the staff were excellent. However, we did have a disappointing experience with one receptionist, Aleks, who we found to be rude and somewhat sarcastic, and who appeared to be laughing with another member of staff while we were enquiring about taxis. This was somewhat off-putting in such a high-class hotel. It was unfortunate to encounter this behaviour from a front-of-house member of staff, as it did not reflect the otherwise high standard of service. She would likely benefit from additional hospitality training to ensure a more consistently professional approach to guest interactions. I have travelled extensively and have not previously encountered that level of rudeness.

This was our first visit to Bulgaria and loved it. All the staff at the hotel and other places we visited were so friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was spotlessly clean in all areas. We found the food on our All Inclusive deal to have a great variety and we never experienced the lack of temperature that some other reviewers mention. The desserts/sweet dishes in particular were excellent. We visited Nessebar Old Town on two evenings and highly recommend doing the short walk over the causeway to it. The buildings, roads, walls etc are striking. The views from the roof top pool area are superb back over the mainland and out over the Black Sea.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Stay at Hotel Marina Palace, Nessebar We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Marina Palace in Nessebar. The hotel’s location is fantastic, offering beautiful sea views and being within easy walking distance of the charming Old Town of Nessebar, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with excellent housekeeping throughout our stay. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help with any questions or requests, making us feel valued from the moment we arrived. A special mention to the lovely smiling receptionist, Kris at the rooftop bar, and George, a fabulous masseuse at the Spa, who all helped make our stay even more memorable. The rooftop pool and terrace were a particular highlight, providing stunning panoramic views over the Black Sea and a perfect place to relax and unwind. Breakfast offered a good variety of fresh food, and there were plenty of dining options nearby for lunch and dinner. The overall atmosphere was relaxed, peaceful, and ideal for both couples and adult family members, looking for a comfortable base from which to explore the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend Hotel Marina Palace to anyone visiting Nessebar. We look forward to returning in the future.

Excellent Hotel with good facilities and great staff.

Overall incredible experience and really good value for money. Staff were all lovely and spoke great English. The variety of food was impressive and it was all really good quality bar a small few dishes we weren’t keen on. The room had just been refurbished and was spotless. It was made up daily with towels, drinking water and everything replenished. The view and rooftop pool is the best part. All inclusive drinks were good too - the beer and aperol or ‘summer spritz’ were spot on. We were also accommodated for on our last day whilst waiting for our flight, we still had access to the all inclusive food and drinks and could shower and leave our bags securely. Really impressed overall and would definitely recommend.

We just returned from the hotel and I have to say the staff are fantastic, especially Kris in the Skybar. The food is OK with a fair selection and the waiters/waitresses were very quick in clearing tables, the hotel is very clean and has some beautiful views. The biggest downfall was our room 406, every other day we were woken up between 6.15-6.30am by what sounded like water coming the the aircon, I think it was caused by cleaning of the pool, after it happened twice we were moved to 412 and it was exactly the same in there, we lost half a day swapping rooms and in the end we had to tolerate it as didn't want to waste more time moving again. I looked back on reviews and noticed this was reported in August 2025 and it still hasn't been sorted. Had we not have had this issue the hotel would of had top rating from me. If I visited again I would insist on a 3rd or 2nd floor room. Entertainment wasn't the best but highly recommended visiting the old town ( 15 minute walk).

Lovely adult only hotel, 15 minute walk to Old Town Nesebar. Good choice of food but needs to be kept on warmers as not always hot. Plenty of friendly staff at all times.

This hotel is clean and gives a fresh vibe. The staff were amazing and we couldn't have asked for more. The rooms were well looked after and a special shout out to Katerina who went above and beyond. The gym was ok for a hotel, it had everything for a steady workout. The pool area was lovely, we never struggled with the dreaded sunbed saga, always beds available. The pool itself was best described as freezing, seriously the coldest pool I've ever been in. Now for the bad points, the food was at best, very average. If you got warm food that was fully cooked, you were doing well. Most nights was pretty bad and we ended up eating out. And the lifts!!! Pick a floor and see where you end up, Nessebar's magical tour of the hotel, via the lift. I think if the food was improved, this would have got 5 stars from me.

Our 5th stay at this lovely hotel. It ticks all the boxes, location, excellent food, cleanliness and such happy friendly staff. Tatyana is still there with her amazing restaurant team who looked after us so well as returning guests. The rooms have been refurbished to a high standard. It was our anniversary, we are Melia members and returning loyal guests but unfortunately did not qualify for a little upgrade. It would have truly made our trip exceptional. The hotel was very quiet as the season is just about starting so plenty of room in the restaurant and surrounding areas. A lovely time to stay before the hotel gets busy.

We are here now for a 1 week stay and I must say to anyone thinking about staying here,Do it!,huge room,great food,spotless, great location.Great price.

We’re currently staying at the Sol marina palace and our experience is nothing short of extraordinary. We got a last minute deal on love holidays and couldn’t believe the price. It’s a 4 star hotel but honestly id give it 5 stars. Food: Plenty to choose from, there’s fresh slabs of honey for breakfast, Prosecco and strawberries on entry, plenty to choose from for each meal and there’s themed nights in the all inclusive restaurant. Plenty of drinks to choose from. You can get food at all times, even if you miss the all inclusive times they have a bar marina on the same floor at reception serving sandwiches, ice creams and fruit. The staff: Everyone is so lovely here and willing to help you. Kris in the upstairs sky bar is an asset to the hotel, is super friendly and kind. There is also an older lady, not sure of her name but she was in the restaurant and was super accommodating. The chefs and happy to help and cook omelettes in the morning and the bar staff are super quick. The room: We stayed in a room with a side sea view. It’s super spacious, the beds are slightly hard but not a big deal. The cleaners do an amazing job and the rooms are so clean and modern. The rooftop: There are plenty of sunbeds, you do have to move incase you want to go in the sun sometimes but that’s a given. Pool is super cold but okay once you’ve got in and settled. The bar is separate from the pool so you do have to get dressed to go and get your drinks. Location: Less than a 5 minute walk to Nessebar old town peninsula which has shops and lots of history. Also located right on the beach and approx 35 Minutes from Burgas airport. Honestly I would recommend so much.
