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... more

We went to the Hotel Santa Maria for our honeymoon and loved the place. Reception staff don't smile as much as you might expect them to, but are very helpful and friendly nevertheless. For example, when we arrived at our room I went back down to reception to request a room with a view and a balcony, and explained that... more

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. more

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... more

I stayed there for two nights in July 2005. The location is fine, just five minutes walk from the heart of El Puerto. We had a price of 60€ for one night inc. tax exc. breakfast which is quite cheap for such quality. The rooms are fine but a bit old and the service is OK. However, for such price... more

Just wanted to post a comment about the Santa Maria Hotel which is on the quayside and within very easy walking distance of everything in Puerto. It's a clean and quite comfortable place with friendly staff and good prices. I stayed for one week whilst looking for a place to buy and felt quite at home. Being English, I was... more
