Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had comfortable, clean rooms with a view to a wall. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Although the location was good, being close to restaurants and shops, it was a little far from the beach. The dining experience offered a good variety of fresh options. Overall, a decent value for money choice.
The hotel offers mid-range category rooms that are spotlessly clean, with a tricky safe requiring a €5 deposit. The free Wi-Fi worked perfectly, and the breakfast included a high variety cold buffet. The service was exceptional, with helpful and friendly staff. The location was perfect for a quiet night's sleep yet conveniently close to restaurants and the central square. The dining options were good, with a continental breakfast being a perfect start to the day.
I had a very enjoyable holiday at this hotel. The rooms were spotlessly clean and fresh, although the shower was quite tiny, making it a bit difficult to shower properly. The staff were instantly warm and welcoming, always ready to assist. The location was excellent, right in the center of San Pedro de Alcántara with fantastic restaurants nearby. Overall, a great stay with clean and comfortable rooms.
