Poor service
How can anyone enjoy a stay when on arrival being told that check in is at 3pm, especially after letting them know that we would be arriving early and they acknowledged that? This from a 4 star hotel! Upon complaining they use the feable excuse that checkout is at noon, as if they need to clean all the rooms, after noon, and let everyone one in at 3pm. Absurd, especially in the low season of mid-October and when group tours and business people leave early.

Dear Mr Andrew,First of all, thank you for your review.We gave you your room at 11:30h because at 10:30h when you arrived we did not have your room type available.It would be absurd to keep you waiting from 10:30h until the official check in time (15:00h), having clean rooms available.We look forward to your next visit,Best regards.

Three star hotel if that
Check-in was easy. The room and bathroom were a decent size but décor was tired. No guest tray or kettle and basic toiletries. The TV turned on every time you entered the room which I found annoying. The walls were so thin if I knew Spanish I would know what my neighbour was saying and if he has a partner I feel sorry for them with his snoring. The breakfast buffet was average with very greasy scrambled eggs. There was an omelet station but no one manning it. You needed a swimming hat for the pool so I could not use that facility. Would not stay here again. It's a three star hotel.

Staying in October, the hotel was relatively quiet. The lobby, bar and restaurant areas are well maintained and clean. The hotel room was rather stark with nothing on the walls (pictures or decoration) and our room had a lot of wall damaged needing repair. Hotel staff were very helpful especially with our language barrier. Good breakfast.

A really plus deal close to the Marina di Motril.
My colleague and I were in Motril for work purposes and Elba Motril B&B Resort was recommended to us as an alternative. Very handly to the Marina where we were working. Probably the best option in the area with secure onsite parking for €6 euros per day. The parking spaces were the biggest I've encountered, I have a BMW 5 series and we fit into the parking space with room to spare. Never had the chance to use the pool although it was noticeably smaller than depicted on Hotels.com. A plunge pool probably, rather than a lap pool. The interior decor leading to the rooms was interesting, lots of neon and very Las Vegas if that's your thing. The rooms are big, marble clad and has a safe and minibar etc. The sea views looked better on Hotels.com but we were out all day anyway, so made little difference to us. Not exactly attractive looking out over a series of old garages towards the beach about 500 meters away. Staff were great, super polite and helpful. Lots of food and a ton of selection for breakfast, lunch and dinner which was thought provoking as there weren't that many guests onsite so I wonder what happens to all the remaining food at the end of service... and I'm talking about ALOT of food! Hopefully, not all into the rubbish bins! I paid for the rooms and all meals which was really handy and excellent value for money! The only hotel that has offered this service so far. Motril close to the marina unfortunately didn't have much to offer but again it was only 3 days.

The hotel is very nice and the room spacious. I faced an issue with the check in as I had to sign documents provided only in Spanish and I did not have a explanation or translation of what it was about. Furthermore, the restaurant was closing at 22:00 and even though I entered sometime before, nobody came to take order or inform that the kitchen was about to close and if I want to order. As a result I did not manage to eat.

Great Hotel excellent location with friendly staff
We had a great Premium room. The Hotel staff were very welcoming. The breakfast buffet was very extensive. The daily menu in the Restaurant looked inviting although we didn't use it as we were surrounded by sea food restaurants. Parking on site is a bonus as it can be difficult to find a parking space nearby.

Large room, ample storage, comfortable bed, good WiFi, safe parking. Buffet breakfast and dinner excellent. The room 215 is dated and in need of some maintenance, balcony sliding door very difficult to open suspect collapsed roller, and entrance door to room groaned and squeaked when opened and closed must have been annoying to other room occupants. Noise easily heard from adjacent rooms.

Nice hotel, but terrible location
The hotel is really nice, room very comfortable, great buffet breakfast included and nice gym. The only problem is that the pool and jacuzzi are very cold. We couldnt get in the water. Additionally, if you are planning for some holiday, Motril is definitely a terrible destination. There is absolutely nothing and the beach is horrible.

It is as advertised
Motril is a seaport, the beach was clean and expansive but of coarse, grey sand and about 50m from the hotel which is very smart and clean. The booking included breakfast which was very good with attentive staff (I left a tip). Over the road is The Juan Garcia an excellent, affordable restaurant, where we ate one night. Food we saw served in the hotel looked very good too. We visited at the beginning of March 2018 which was unusually wet and cold to the locals but warm to us. We tried the aircon but it didn't work. Leaving the windows open wasn't an option because of mosquitoes from the nearby grassland. We requested a fan but none was available. This was the only negative and I don't count it a big one. I would not hesitate advising friends to stay here. We were on a touring holiday between Alicante and Malaga, staying for 2 nights at various locations.

Great hotel
The hotel was good with great service and newly refurbished rooms and common space. I stayed for business and in the off-off season so the area looked a little desolate but that was down to the time rather than anything else. There are fantastic restaurants locally and I am sure that this is a very popular hotel in the summer (and rightly so).
