    Good value for money. Well located. Modern rooms and hotel.

    Hotel is under-staffed.

    Beautifully situated, with balcony suites overlooking the river. Lovely boat tours offered. (Steep) walking distance to center of town with fantastic restaurants and a beautiful church (former mosque). A truly memorable experience.

    Our suite was on the small side, and the sofa had spots all over. A simple throw-blanket would have helped.

    10ColleenPosted on: 12-1-2024

    Super nice, clean, and modern, with archaeological, dig and artifacts in the center of the hotel. Staff very accommodating and walking distance to Castle and historical sites. Breakfast spread was very lovely!

    8RogerPosted on: 11-11-2024

    Comfortable modern room. Gorgeous view of the Guadiana river from our window (we had booked a room with a river view). Perfect location just outside the historic centre. The building is part of the town museum.

    Very limited indoor public space. Outside kiosk serves as bar.

    8AdrianPosted on: 10-26-2024

    The room was well equiped, very clean and comfortable and te staff although very busy were helpful. The lady in the outside snackbar was a delight to deal with. Breakfast although in another building had good varitity and was kept constantly refeshed.

    The hotel position low in the river valley meant that at at the time we arrived the air was heavy and humid. Although there was a kettle in the room the tea bags supplied where just two of the same type a greater variety would have been appreciated

    A beautiful hotel with a beautiful view, if you are lucky to get a room with a view of the river). Hotel is very modern with an excellent location (near the Mertola castle). The room was adequate in size, clean and modern. The hotel has its own free parking lot. The hotel has a view of the underground Roman ruins in the lobby. The Wi-Fi and internet connection were excellent

    Hotel has no elevator, and my room was, not surprisingly, on the top floor (3rd). The hallways on the floor are dark because the light switches work on timer (not even on motion detection). The breakfast facility is in the hotel next door. At the time of my stay, there was a large group cyclists, which irritated me. They had their vans and cars parked on the street in front of the hotel, which didn't allow for two-way traffic. Also, they had breakfast early, which crowded the breakfast hall. The breakfast buffet selection was OK

    The pool to cool you down.The cafe baron the terrace to enjoy the sunset.The roman and arab foundationsacross the corridor from our room.

    9StefanPosted on: 10-1-2024

    Very friendly staff, nice facilities, comfy bed, great breakfast.

    nothing to complain

    8IrenePosted on: 9-16-2024

    Very good

    The noise of the aircondtitioners (day and night) on the outside of the building right under the window of our room 308 made it difficult to sleep (even with closed windows). Otherwise a very good choice in Mertola.

    9MartinPosted on: 9-16-2024

    The location in Mertola was excellent with good views over the river.

    The breakfast was average, the hot food wasn't kept hot by the little tea-lights underneath. No pastels de nata at breakfast! A refrigerator in the room would be great.

    9AriannaPosted on: 9-1-2024

    Sleeping on the ruins of a Roman villa was an unexpected experience. We really appreciated the proposal made at the hotel to take advantage of the short boat trip on the river. It was very nice and fun.

    The locks on the door are tricky, easy to accidentally leave room openZero communication from stuff about our booking before arrival

    8StephenPosted on: 8-10-2024

    The view of the river was good and the room was clean. It was a reasonable value. Good location for the river.

    Nothing special about the room. Small and typical. A bit of a hike to get back up the hill to the main part of town. Staff were present but not engaging.
