We stayed at the hotel during the Ironman competition
Must note that this is one of the worst hotels we have been to
..The hotel is very old, not clean, carpeted are stained' small and poor rooms
Throughout the hotel are paid machines designed to entice children to play with them
It is a hotel built in the 1970s and nothing has been done since to preserve it
My Recommendation: If you come to Cooper because of the competition and have a vehicle, go to IZOLA

Staying in this complex give me an interesting insight of spending pleasure time with gentle staff and amazing food in a restaurant. So far I've stayed in 40 hotels mainly 4 and 5 stars with lover quality of ingredients. Here guests can eat local fruits and vegetable high quality. No industrial preparation. Overview it is worth of money. It is more family orientated hotel. I could still find many parties in cities close by. Recommend to have your car.

This hotel would be great for kids with its family friendly atmosphere, the aquapark and just across the road from the beach (note that the beaches along this coastline are pebble beaches, not sand). For myself, my daughter and my teenage granddaughter, however, the room was very cramped, even though I'd booked a 'suite' (basically a room with a patio).
The food, breakfast and dinner being included in the price, is buffet style and pretty basic. Unacceptably they stopped serving food more than an hour before the advertised time.
There's a lovely bar which seems not to be in use, the 'barman' also serving as the wine waiter at the dinner tables. In fact management are really losing out on what could be a money spinner by serving drinks only during mealtimes. That meant the adults were sitting of an evening out on the terrace without a drink unless they'd bought some from the supermarket in town.
It's a beautiful walk along the pedestrian path by the coast into town, a lovely old town, but it takes a good half hour. Plenty of taxis, though, to get back.
