Themeing on a par with Disney



The Hotel Colosseo is new. It joins the other two hotels at Europa Park (their themes: Spain and the middle ages(!)). The hotel is built around a huge courtyard which contains restaurants, bars, a spa and dancing fountains. At the opposite end of the hotel is a full size replica of part of the original Colosseum (the part where the poor would sit and watch the lions rip the heads off the christians). We were initially given a poky room above the hotel entrance (complete with comings-and-goings noise) but after a quick word with the hotel manager we were moved to a huge room with a view of the Italian gardens below (as well as the car park). There was a bust of Hermes (the God of scarves) outside our room.
