Maxine Ireland

We got a room on top floor, facing the harbour, amazing view with sunrise and very little noise. Elaborate xmas decorations in the lobby. They had non-dairy milk at breakfast! Rooftop has definitely the best views. Location is unbeatable for access to the old town and the walk to the Malaguetas beach is very pleasant and takes 17 min.

Julia Sweden

It was perfect. I absolutely loved the Christmas decorations. Made me feel at home.

Rebecca El Salvador

Loraine Spain

The location if this hotel is incredible - our room had amazing view of the coast and we were right in the heart of the old town. The facilities were great (we used the pool and gym) and the breakfast was delicious. Staff were really friendly and helpful. We ate in the rooftop restaurant for lunch and thought it was good quality. We will definitely return to this hotel again - highly recommend.
