I see the last reviews are some time ago, so here's an update.
This hotel is on the riverside, a little way out of the town centre. It's right opposite the catamaran that runs to Cadiz, making it convenient for day trips. A large public car park just across the road charges 1€ to park - this seems to cover...

I have to say that I read the reviews and I booked it nonetheless. Thank god I could cancel the 5 night stay after the first night and went to a newer/nicer hotel in downtown El Puerto.
Our room was a little bit run down and the security box wasn't working. The front desk wasn't very helpful. They didn't even...

The hotel is located somewhat off the center of town, but most restaurants and shops can be easily reached by 10 minutes walking.
What we liked: The hotel is located next to the jetty of the catamaran service to Cadiz, so it's the obvious choice if you plan to visit Cadiz by boat. Several rooms and the rooftop area have...

The staff was always very friendly and helpful. Very nice and big rooms, very cleaned. Good breakfast. Pool in the top floor and garage (paid by day). As it's on a side street is very calm and quiet, at the same time close enought of restaurants and bars. Good value for money.
It was thwe 1st night of 2008. We payed €60.00 for a couple and a 9 years old daughter. Great room, large and clean. Very nice stuff. Excellent buffet brekfast. (really great!) It`s difficult for me to understand why this was only 3 stared hotel. Everything was perfect.
We stayed here for one night while touring the area; the hotel is down a side street from the road running alongside the old quayside - this sounds dodgy, but in fact it's fine, and is just on the edge of where the bars and restaurants of the town are located. We were advised to park our car on the...

Second stay - this time for 3 nights. Room was very clean and bed hardish but ok. Staff efficient and know what they are doing ! Main problem at this hotel is that the water pressure in the bathrooms is high and when your neighbour turns on the shower or the tap you can hear it very clearly ! This...
