“We loved the place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2011

We stayed in the hotel in September 2011 and we just loved it. Actually they have given us one of the suites with a huge bed, no need to mention how we enjoyed it:) The room was arranged tasetfully, the bathroom had its own style which was an extra value, the breakfast was excellent with freshly made 'bollos', cafe, 'tostada', eggs and so one. In the beautiful weather we had our breakfast on the terrace wich gives you a wonderful view to the see. The stuff was very kind, the pool was very enjoyable... we loved every minutes of our stay in the hotel. Nerja is very close by car, so it is an absolutely good choice for someone who wants to discover the surroundings. moreover for the quality we recieved the price was absolutely correct. Well recommended then!

Room Tip: Rooms on the inner side (not on the street front) might be without noise.

“A small hotel with excellent facilities”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2011

We visited this hotel in May 2009, it was so nice it is still strong im my memory. It is built in the style of a hacienda and all the communial areas are nicely decorated. The staff are friendly and helpful and all facilities very good. The evening meals were outstanding, in fact we would rate the restaurant as one of the best we have experienced in Spain. The hotel is minutes away from the autovia and has large patios and swimming pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are hoping to return in 2012.

“Lovely place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2011

person found this review helpful

I loved this little hotel, it's a real find.
It is just seconds from the motorway but still quiet and has lovely views over to the Med. from the rooms, lounge and dining room/bar.
Spotlessly clean, big room, functional balcony, lovely staff, nice breakfast, free Wi-Fi in lounge.

A couple of things to note. a) the lane up to the hotel is STEEP b) Wi-Fi is restricted to the lounge and dining room/bar, not the rooms.

I didn't see any notices about taking away food and nothing about charging for the use of the fridge in the room - in fact there was no fridge.

I'll stay here again and have already recommended it to friends.

“half bored”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 September 2011

If, like us, you are hiring a car and heading somewhere different every day this is an ideal place to stay. It is within easy reach of Nerja and Frigiliana and just off the motorway for trips further afield. We had looked at hotels in Frigiliana and are pleased we didn't stay there (too quiet) and ones in Nerja which when we saw them from the car didn't live up to their websites. The review title is just a joke as by day 7 I was having trouble choosing my evening meal, having already had the dishes I liked. They have a good a la carte menu though if you have the funds and the half board food is very good value. The Aubergines with honey and the scrambled egg starters are enormous. They sneak a la carte dishes on as specials so if you are lucky you may get what you fancy after all. There were 2 couples we met who were on their 4th and 3rd visits to the hotel so they are doing something right. The complaints about the fridge charges bothered us but we were not charged tho we did put our water in at night. If you don't take the micky and fill it with beer from the supermarket you should be o.k. Although close to main road it doesn't spoil the stay, the views are lovely, particularly from the restaurant terrace. Well maintained swimming pool was a welcome alternative to traipsing to the beach. Would highly recommend this hotel.

“Pretty basic rooms but fantastic overall”

Excellent place - great value, good humoured and laid back service and made very comfortable - rooms pretty "Spartan" but lovely terrace - food also great - highly recommend the "pig cheek"! Best to ignore references to taking own food and drink etc - weird but was not issue as water for room was 2 euros / coffee 1.50 mini bar cheap.
