Costa del Sol Cheap Hotels

"This hotel far exceeded my expectations. The location absolutely cannot be beat. It is right next to the old town but on the promenade (the boardwalk) right on the beach with lovely restaurants. The breakfast was also the best out of any hotel I have stayed at anywhere. The breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel and would never stay anywhere else if I went back to Marbella. "

"Amazing hotel and staff "

"Great place to stay. Walking distance to beach and restaurants."

"We really liked this hotel. Nice people, clean room, very convenient with shuttle. All good."

"I was able to check in immediately even after arriving 2 hours before the stated time. Room was spacious and very comfy. Air con was perfect. The bathroom was decent, two shower heads and a big window. Pool are was lovely. Always able to get a sun bed. Lots of natural shade in the afternoons. Pool itself was good. Was a big size and had a deep end. The only slight grumble I had was that the water wasn’t very refreshing in the hot days, but it was the middle of summer so I guess the sun warms it up. But it didn’t stop me enjoying it still. "

"Don't rent a car, basically impossible to park at the end of th day, that just ruined the car bit for us. The pool is too small for the volume of people trying to use it. The I am Vietnam restaurant a short walk round the beachfront is worth a visit. "

"Great "

"Hotel El Faro in Marbella is all about location. Just one block from the beach and right next to the old lighthouse and the Duque de Ahumada promenade, it puts you within easy walking distance of vendors, shops, and restaurants—perfect for enjoying everything the area has to offer. The hotel itself is a bit dated in terms of furniture and appliances, but everything was clean and functioned well. My room had a small kitchen equipped with a refrigerator/freezer, stove, microwave, sink, cookware, and utensils, which made it very convenient for a longer stay. The beds were a little firm for my preference, but overall, the stay was comfortable and pleasant. If you're prioritizing location and value, Hotel El Faro is a solid choice. I would consider staying here again and recommend it to travelers who want to be close to the beach at a reasonable price."
