Not great
Pros:

Air conditioning in the room didn’t work ! TV didn’t work ! Room wasn’t serviced ! But apart from that the hotel is very convenient! I think that’s probably the reason people stay there !

Pros:

Loved this place. Just off highway so we were sceptical about location and noise but it was a lovely oasis. We stayed facing a large green area and didn’t hear traffic at all. The pool was lovely, rooms spotless and new. People kind and helpful. Would absolutely recommend to anyone

Pros:

Lovely modern hotel. We had a superior room and it was faultless! The location is tricky - just outside the Sotogrande gated community with a busy main road to walk down to get to pathways - it is however possible! Taxis are ready and waiting at the hotel but you pay 30euros return for a trip to the port. Hotel is definitely worth a stay and especially if you hire a car!

Pros:

Beautiful hotel with lovely breakfast and good dining options throughout the day and evening. Room exceptionally good although aircon did not go as low as we needed given the high temperature outside. Just a pity that the receptionist on duty at the time of our arrival was decidedly unfriendly. Never smiled once. Clearly needs more training or moved to a non customer contact position. On checking out, however, the other receptionist couldn’t have been nicer. Staff in all other areas of the hotel were great and extremely helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay again as the hotel itself was fabulous. Just please make sure your reception staff smile 😀
