“My wife and I stayed mid July 25 for two nights whilst enroute to Gibraltar. Really nice hotel central to the old town and a 25 minute walk to the beach. Staff are friendly and very helpful. I used the multi storey secured carpark for 13 euros per day which is a 5 minutes walk to the hotel. Our room was the superior double with breakfast and free access to the solarium. Facilities in the room included, TV , free safe, fridge, hairdryer and shower over bath. For this grade of room in a four star hotel I would like to see tea & coffee facilities, none the less it's comfortable. The solarium has a jacuzzi, sauna and a couple of sunbeds. On our visit the sauna was not operational. Breakfast is basic however adequate. The cost was 240 euros for two nights, breakfast and carpark which is great value!”
“I'm very pleased with our choice of this hotel. From the first phone call, where Monika at the front desk was very helpful and explained exactly how to get to the hotel. After arriving at the hotel, she warmly welcomed us and explained our questions in English. She was accompanied by her colleague Daniel, who was also friendly and helpful. We also really liked the hotel itself. The rooms are small but clean, cleaned daily, the beds are comfortable, and the breakfast is affordable and delicious with a wide selection. The hotel is conveniently located close to the main attractions. The hotel also has parking, which is close to the hotel, and although it took us a while to find it, we were happy to find it. I recommend booking a parking space in advance, as spaces are limited. If we visit Almería again, we will definitely stay at this hotel.”
“Let me start with the good stuff. The hotel is located in the heart of the city, near the most important sightseeing sites. The (single) room I got was small, but was clean and had everything I needed, including a great (rain)shower. The staff was friendly and helpful. Although the hotel's parking garage was a short walk away and a challenge to navigate with a slightly bigger than average car, I did like the thought that my rental car was safely parked. It is absolutely impossible to park in the streets. However, there are a lot of down sides too... The walls are very thin and I had noisy neighbours the first night. Bring earplugs! The breakfast buffet was disappointing and absolutely not what you'd expect from a 4-star hotel. The coffee was pretty bad and choice of foods was limited. Parking cost about half of the room rate extra, which is a bit excessive. But no good alternatives really... Since I really only needed the hotel to sleep, it was allright. But it's definitely more of a 3-star hotel.”
“Our stay at this hotel during the Semana Santa holiday was truly unforgettable. For two nights, we paid 168€ for a superior room with jacuzzi access, and it was absolutely worth it. The highlight of the experience was, without a doubt, the jacuzzi. Having access to a private rooftop with such an incredible view made it feel like a luxury escape. It’s a must-try relaxing there, especially after a day of exploring, was simply amazing. What stood out even more than the facilities was the exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond by recommending a first-floor room facing the street, which turned out to be the perfect choice. Thanks to their suggestion, we were able to comfortably watch the Semana Santa procesión right from our room, a truly special and unique experience. Everything about our stay felt thoughtful and well taken care of. From the atmosphere to the attention to detail, it was an amazing experience that we’ll definitely remember and recommend.”
“Little bit noisy at night but thats just the city centre location apart from that its great been going for 10 years for work and wouldn't choose anywhere else especially location to bars and restaurants”
“Amazing hotel. All you need is provided. A quiet night's sleep in good quality bedlinen. Great Value.”
