Review of El Greco Resort
Reviewed Feb 22, 2020
We stayed for one night we rented a two-bedroom Suite with full kitchen big place. We were dropped off at the office and had two wheeler suitcases to block d which was a ways away. Advertisers beach pass but when we ask for one for an hour or so they said you had to book for two nights to receive this. In the one Suite the tub wouldn't drain properly so you were standing in 6in of water when you took a shower. The pool has cracked and missing tiles in it and needs some work. The metal umbrellas around the pool are from the 60s and are dangerous to be around. The free breakfast came very fast and was very good. Probably will find somewhere else to stay next time I don't recommend.

Pre-booked/paid for a one bedroom suite in Dec. for week in Feb. Tried to give us a lesser room on arrival. Telephone, TV and WIFI didn't work and kitchen was not outfitted properly. Repairs needed. Pool a total disgrace! Staff go through the motions on service but don't put the customer first. Restaurant good and service at breakfast very good,

Room tip: Check out room before accepting the one offered but problems are in other ones we saw

Staff is rude (especially reception and they have lied to us with re to our booking)
Old and worn down
Swimming pool looks much better on the pictures
Bad WiFi in our room
Noisy room
Breakfast limited
If you stay less than 2 days you have to pay for beach access
Hotel drivers try to rip you off and will be overcharging. Just take a standard taxi

So many better places to go to in Montego Bay! We originally booked this hotel for 3 nights but glad we only stayed for 1 night. Awful place!

My experience was absolutely awful if it was not for the Towel Guy who I know as Monty and the bell guy (who brings and collects your luggage) I would of left the hotel by the following day. I stayed there for 4 nights with my kids and grand daughter and it was the worst time in Jamaica. The Manager of the hotel Marvell Grant needs training she is a cold and unfriendly person. Bring back Byron or get someone to run the hotel with his experience. I first visited that hotel 6 yrs ago and I fully enjoyed my stay going back in October 2019 shocked and disappointed me. The furniture was old had a really bad smell, once inside it looks like them back street motels, it is in serious need of renovation.

Even the restaurant is a joke for what you pay to stay on that resort you are clearly being robbed. Sadly to say unless they get someone with more experience or of a kinda nature to run that hotel I will never recommend it to anyone or stay there again even if I was given a free booking.

I visit Jamaica every year and to be honest El Greco needs closing down and revamping just like the Gloucestershire Hotel did years ago.

Out of the 4 nights we stayed at this hotel:

We had WI-fi for 1 day
The phones in the rooms did not work once
The bed sheet were not changed they only spreader the beds
The TV worked for only 2 days
Breakfast was good on our last day

I am so sorry that I had to write this review but the truth needed to be told El Greco needs help, also they need to get more friendly front line staff 2 out of 3 of them I must say were friendly and nice but the lady with the braids ( I think her name was Shameka or similar) she needs to learn how to smile and not look like she hates her job.

My stay at EL Greco is always pleasant. The people are always nice. The bathroom and kitchen needs some updating but is always clean. Housekeeping does a wonderful job. The food at the restaurant is tops, the bar is tops as well. Overall quite comfortable and feels like home. Love this place.
