“Fantastic Hotel, great location, excellent service!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 29, 2011

Just got back from a great trip to Marbella's old town (Casco Antiguo). Stayed at La Villa Marbella, which is in a great location in the old town - picturesque, close to restaurants, tapas bars, and local sites. We stayed in the Phuket room which was very well presented with a balcony overlooking the narrow old town street. The service was fantastic with a very welcoming management team lead by Marcos - who is very knowledgeable about the area and very helpful. Well worth a visit.

“A Gem of Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 29, 2011

We stayed in the Bangkok room which was delightful, everything was to a very high standard.
The hotel is situated in a quiet location in the old town while having all the benefits of shops/restaurants close to hand and the beach is a just a short stroll away.
The management and all the staff were wonderful, they went to great lengths to ensure our stay was memorable.
We shall definitely return.

“Shangri-La in Marbella”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 28, 2011

We planned to stay here for 3 nights and extended it to five, we loved the place so much.

After years of sullen disinterested staff on hotel reception desks, this hotel was a breath of fresh air. Nothing was too much trouble, they really made our stay special in every respect. The decor is delightful and the position within the old town could not be bettered.

Marcos and team, you are doing a fine job. Thank you for a fantastic stay, we will be back.

“Unique Hotel in the Old Town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 27, 2011

Great little find which may restore your faith in Marbella. SItuated in the old town and spread across a number of restored local houses, it surpassed my expectations. Nice Asian decor undertone we stayed in the cottage which is 2 mins walk from the reception area. Great roof terrace to relax and room decorated and fitted to a high standard. A bit of late night noise from the hostel opposite, but nothing major. Service was second to none and we were given a complementary upgrade. There are a lot of chain hotels out there who could learn a lot about service from the team behind this place. Highly recommended

“Unique boutique hotel-”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 23, 2011 via mobile

Having read previous reviews I was drawn to this hotel over bigger, flashier hotels in the Marbella region. I was not disappointed. Set in a beautiful this hotel was unlike anywhere I have stated before. We stayed in the Halong room which was elegant and feminine. It was clean and with all mod-cons. The staff were very friendly and their knowkedge and advice on the area was second to none. Marcus, the owner and Ben made us feel very welcome and we will certainly return.
