Excellent location. Good clean rooms with air conditioning. Food was good especially if you like fish. Staff mainly friendly but can be a bit abrupt. It felt like a truely spanish experience. I would definitely go back and stay in this hotel. Shame there is no swimming pool but its close enough to the beach to not worry. Felt like... more

Used the hotel as a base when visiting family living in Estepona, so it suited our needs quite adequately, as the bus stop is less than 1 minute away. The hotel is certainly in need of a good face lift, rather drab, with gloomy corridors leading to bedrooms, where the walls are so thin you can hear a pin drop... more

I stayed at the San Cristobal Hotel for seven nights on a bed and breakfast basis during September. The hotel has an ideal location in the centre of Marbella next to the Casco Antiguo and five minutes walk to the beach. The rooms are equiped to a satisfactory standard and cleaned well daily. There was a good selection at the... more

We stayed at the Hotel San Cristobal for three nights while visiting Spain in March. First, the positives: -Location. If you want to be in the center of Marbella, it's tough to beat. The hotel is a very short walk to either the beach or the old town; it's right on the edge of the old town, in fact. Get... more

I have to say the San Cristobal was one of the best 3* places I have stayed in. Our travel agents made the mistake of only booking us a twin room when there were three of us. The staff quickly corrected the mistake and we were allocated a triple room the next day. Even when we saw the twin room,... more

The best point about this hotel is it's location - it's right in the centre of town, close to the Old Town, opposite the Alameda Park and a stroll down the Avenida del Mar (which takes you to the promenade where all the restaurants & shops are). The hotel is in some old 60s concrete building and a "shopping department"... more

23 Hens for hen weekend! We paid 52 quid for 3 nights B & B. For that price you cant complain. the hotel was clean and breakfast was nice. Location was excellent with taxi rank opposite. orange square was beautiful and good shoe shops! puerto banus is so cool with nice shops bars and restuarants. more

Spent 3 nights here attending a family event in Marbella. The rooms are quite small and dated and the whole place could do with a refit. The location is great, opposite the park and beside the old town but for over 90 euro a night I think you could do better elsewhere. more

I just came back from staying at the San Cristobal for 3 nights. I found the comments about the car park provided in San Francisco review dated 16 April very helpful. The hotel helpfully provide parking and a safe key at a cost of about 9 or 10 Euros per day plus VAT (or IVA as they say). It took... more
