Great location by the Old Town and 500 metres from beach. Staff were friendly and efficient. Bedroom was large, clean and comfortable and opened out onto a small balcony and there was a good sized bathroom with an excellent shower and bath. The breakfast was excellent, comprising hot and cold buffet. Our room faced the busy street and overlooked the... More

This hotel is definitely a 3 star. There are 6 floors. We were lucky to be given a room on the 6th floor with a sea view and balcony. The main road is literally in front of the hotel, busy with cars..... I thought the room was decent. Yes, furniture is from the 70's (old wood) but it was ok... More

i liked the hotel. the only problem was the internet, some rooms got internet other guests had to go down to the lobby or the 2nd floor to connect to the internet. the staff didnt speak good english. they charge you for using the safe box in the room. in general the hotel is average.

This hotel was nice once you got to it. Its in a very busy section of Marbella, almost impossible to stop outside hotel to offload luggage and check in! Parking is a distance from hotel and is not free! Nice breakfast, but staff not very friendly. Two older men at front desk were pompous, irritable and no help! Young lady... More

I was a little bit worried when i booked this hotel as other reviewers mentioned the smell of sewerage but luckily i can i got no unpleasant odour. It's very important to get a room with a balcony as they don't all have balconies. The location is excellent; centrally located between the beach and orange square. The only complaint i... More

Unpreposessing from the front but a clean and friendly hotel.and excellent value for money. Access to the reception was up an escalator or steps so no good for disabled visitors. Our room was spacious at the front on the top floor giving a superb view of the main street (not noisy at night) and the sea. Mostly Spanish guests, we... More
