Obal Hotel Marbella

Obal Hotel Marbella

10/10 Excellent
"This was the best hotel in our 3 weeks in southern Spain. From the moment you walk in the hotel is welcoming with its fragrance. Very centrally located across form the park and the beach walkway only a few steps away. Also in the center of old Marbella with many restaurants, shops. Took advantage of the rooftop pool, although small and not very deep it was perfect for what we wanted. Excellent stay and would recommend highly to anyone visiting Marbella."
