This is the 5th time I have stayed at this Hotel with my partner and it is brilliant for what we need. The staff are friendly, the rooms are spacious and clean with free wifi and the breakfast is great. It's not luxurious by any means but for the €60 per night including breakfast you wouldn't expect it. The back... More

This place could seriously not have a better location: in the heart of the old town, 3 minute walk to beach, 3 minute walk to grocery store (Super Sol). It is in a very noisy area and is noisy at night but for us the noise level was fine. Free breakfast. The breakfast was not super exciting but all I... More

The quality of the hotel is better on the pictures than in reality. More than it usually is. Receptionist does not speak any English. The quality of the furniture could be better. Bed broke when I put my arm on it. And I am not overweight. Management sent me now the request for recommending them here on Tripadvisor with the... More

Stayed in the San Cristobal at the end of September with my golfing friends. Rooms are a bit outdated, but with all essentials provided, and what is most important, clean with bed sheets changed every day. The room tended to be noisy for a time after midnight when the street nearby filled with people returning from bars and nightclubs. Somebody... More

We have just returned from this hotel - It is a great hotel in the heart of Marbella surrounded by shops and restaurants. The beach is a 2 minute walk away, the rooms are spacious and clean and the breakfast is fine. I would definitely recommend it and I shall definitely be returning.
