Having been to the Hotel Cambrils Princess four times I have to say its one of the best hotels I have every been to. The food and cleanless of the hotel is excellent. Cant fault it. The locations is ideal for people who love the beach or for going for long walks either up to Salou or the the old Cambrils fishing town. Brilliant walks. Very clean.

Highly recommended. Our room at the back did face the train line but didn't bother us one bit. If I'm being fussy Id say the corridor carpets were a bit threadbare but apart from that, throughout, the hotel lived up to the respected Princess group reputation.
Food was very high quality and varied - even had carve yourself cold ham one night. The 'watch the chef cook' bit is interesting and allows you to cook to order even at breakfast-pancakes etc. I tried all sorts of stuff not my normal fodder and enjoyed it.
The pool reflects what other posters have said in that it is well designed and maintained and the life guards were a welcome presence for those with small kids.
The entertainment generally was first class-disco, quality acts like a magician, bolero troupe, African dancers. The little kids activities looked very high quality during the day. The older kids/adult activities were I have to say a bit chaotic and amateurish but still fun.
As for location, its ideal for walking the half hour to either Salou or Cambrils along the sea front walkway. Bus stops for either direction are just outside. Bars are found along the walk to both resorts. Thankfully there was no yobbo route past the hotel as that seemed to be isolated to Salou itself.
Not a cheap hotel but well worth the extra dosh-if you go just take a look at the places round Cap Salou and notice the difference. In this case you do get what you pay for.
The Princess's 4 stars are well earned.

Just arrived back from the Cambrils Princess on July 6th. I had 2 excellent weeks here. I knew about the trainline behind it and sent an email to the hotel 2 weeks before travelling asking for a front room. Arrived at the hotel and was given a pool view. They will accomodate if possible. Email is V.NEGRES@PRINCESS-HOTELS.COM. Hotel is spotless, sheets changed twice weekly and towels daily. Food is fantastic and you would need to be very fussy not to find something you like. Kids entertainment is also good although don,t expect the kids to make a lot of friends as the hotel is mixed language so the kids club had 5 languages. Main bar is good although poolside bar gave weak drinks and poor service. Pool area is nice and plenty loungers to go round, so no nead to set the alarm to claim the beds. Location is perfect. very quiet but the bus outside takes you to either Cambrils or Salou in five minutes and buses are 1 euro either way. Beach is 2 minutes walk across a busy road. Overall I will be returning as it was fantastic, But remember to email first.

Arrived back from cambrils princess on 29/6/02 having had a wonderfull time! The hotel was exceptionally clean and the food was great with loads of choice for everyone even kids.The pool was good with a bar which sold food which was of a good standard and quite reasonable. The pool was kept clean and there was loungers and shaded seating.
We were in a room towards the back of the hotel and the railway was quite noisy although we expected this and it did not spoil our holiday.
Some of the staff were quite friendly especially the bar and pool staff although the restaurant staff were not.Although to be fair they were very busy, however everyone was helpfull.We found the location to be good as it was opposite a lovely beach and there were a few local shops and bars nearby and a bus stop outside the hotel to salou or cambrills also to portaventura and aquopalis.
There were lots of spanish holidaying at the hotel which we took as a good sign.
The only negative comments i would have would be the entertainment.There was childrens entertainment every night until 10.30pm then the band/caberet would start but by then we were bored.Also the entertainment was geared to children and 60ish age groups.Not much inbetween.
We would definately go there again as there are some nice bars nearby for the evenings and the hotel was overall very nice.

The holiday was great!The best holiday i have ever been on! There was loads of entertaintment for me and my broter1 The food was lovely, but when we were tryig to sleep all you could hear was the trains but with the door shut you couldn't hear a thing.
The beach was lovely and clean and so were the shops and bars along the road they were quite cheap to. The swimming pool was very clean but cold but after a while you got use to. The pools are very big. There are loads of families thee so it is idal for kids to make new friends.
I will definliey be revisting the hotel because it is the far the best hotel i have been to!
