The clerk helped me immensely. I was a but distressed and she comforted me and helped me settle down.

Wilson Spain

The grandmotherly woman at the front desk and doing the rooms was absolutely a gem.

Michelle United States of America

Really friendly staff and only 8 minutes by car from the ferry check in!

Rocio United Kingdom

I had such a great stay at Hostal del Carmen! Not just because of the great location (e.g, direct Bus connections in all directions, 5 minutes walk to the city center), but especially because of the great service! I was always treated super kind and whenever I had a questions or request, they did not hesitate to help and support me. Another plus: the room has been always super clean. I will definitely come back! :-)

Solvej Germany

It was super clean and cozy! Plus a perfect location

Ingrid United Kingdom

The receptionist went above and beyond the call of duty she was so helpful and made our stay memorable.

John United Kingdom

Friendly welcome, clean room, close to restaurants.

Graham Spain

Room better than expected, modern, clean and very comfortable. Staff very helpful and friendly.

Fatima United Kingdom

The receptionist was a dream. She went out of her way to help me with some business I needed to attend to, and always with smiling eyes (she wote a mask) and a bell-like voice.

Miranda United Kingdom

Absolutely brilliant. Already booked in for my next stay!
