Key info you should have

Information about your stay

  • If your idea is to spend the day at the beach, you are in luck! Because of the works, the floors 1, 2 and 3 have a very cheap price, you will have the opportunity to book in a very good area of the Costa del Sol at a deal price!
  • You can also choose floors 4 and 5, where the noise is expected to be lower, and have a slightly higher rate.
  • Either way, they will only work during some hours of the day. The night will be as quiet as you need to rest.
  • You will be able to choose the floor during the booking process.
  • We wanted you to have all this information before booking

8.3 Steve G. Travelled with couple June 2025
Great location. Fairly spacious room. Friendly staff. Nice decor. Plenty of sunbeds and nice pool areas. Good value for money.
Cooked food quality not great. Mostly overcooked. Rooftop pool was too shallow to swim in.

8.3 Sandra Timmins Travelled with couple May 2024
We would come again only stayed one night this trip.
I think you should include parking or charge a more reasonable price. Euro 10 would be enough

10 Maria Isabel Travelled with family September 2025
Lo mejor del hotel es la atención del personal. Buffet de buena calidad.
Está demasiado orientado a los extranjeros. Sólo hay prensa y libros en inglés. Horarios de comida pensando en ellos y desayuno inglés..Tendrían que pensar más en los españoles, aunque seamos pocos. Yo quitaría toda la orientación al extranjero y lo pondría que nuestros horarios, costumbres y comidas que para eso estamos en España.

8.6 Esther Travelled with couple August 2025
El personal muy amable en todas las estancias, las habitaciones muy limpias a diario las arreglan, las instalaciones en general están muy bien, la comida del buffet tanto en desayunos como en cenas cambiaban todos los días y en general hay bastante variedad y cocina en vivo, al dejar el hotel nos ofrecieron una habitación para darnos una ducha si lo necesitábamos y el coche también se dejó en el parking hasta la tarde sin problema salimos satisfechos de nuestra estancia.
Las cenas podían ser un poco más tarde el horario.

9.1 Jose Antonio Travelled with couple August 2025
La habitación tenía muchas comodidades. La ubicación del hotel muy cerca a la playa es perfecta y la comida del restaurante era muy buena
Las cortinas de la habitación no eran del todo opacas, y eso hacía que entrase mucha luz por la noche, lo que me dificultaba el descanso

7.1 Isabel Maria August 2025
Está cerca de todo, aunque el aparcamiento dicen que es dificil, pude aparcar sin complicaciones
El hotel está chulisimo, es una pena que tenga horarios pensados por y para clientes extranjeros. ¿ Quien cena a las 18:30? Yo no vi a nadie cenar a esa hora. Es una gran putada tener que irte de donde estes a las 7 de la tarde para poder ir a cenar a las 20:30 y que tengas margen de no comer rápido y que te siente mal la cena. Quizás un horario de 19 a 22 sería más razonable

Todo perfecto!! El personal, sobre todo del desayuno y la comida súper amables, da gusto gente tan maja y alegre. Las habitaciones muy cómodas (no se escuchó nada de ruido de las obras del edificio de al lado) y el desayuno y la cena bastante bien por el precio pagado. Lo recomiendo totalmente.

8.3 Marta Travelled with couple August 2025
La estancia ha sido muy buena. Lo mejor la ubicación y el personal del hotel. El buffet aunque es pequeñito es más que suficiente, tienes de todo y el personal está súper atento.
Habíamos realizado la reserva con habitación sin balcón y no merece la pena por lo que te ahorras. En la nuestra en concreto el baño necesitaba un arreglo.
