This is our second time to Andalucia and last year we stayed in Puerto Banus. This year decided to try Marbella and in my opinion, it is much better than Puerto Banus.
Was a bit worried about the hotel as in a residential location but need not have worried. It is lovely and quiet but a 25 minute brisk walk takes you along to the centre and only a 10 minute walk to beach.
We are still here at the moment and the staff are nice, lovely pool, good breakfast. What sets it apart however, is the cleanliness of the rooms, Friendly maid service every day and boy did they do a good job of cleaning the rooms. They are immaculate and they deserve credit for this. I have stayed in a lot of clean hotels and this one surpassed some of the 5 stars we have stayed in. My only complaint was that there were no tea or coffee making facilities which you would expect from a 4 star hotel and which in my opinion could easily be put in rooms as a nice touch and then the hotel would be a perfect 4 star. Well done NH.
