Overnight stay in Frigiliana.
We have been to Frigiliana several times but only as a day trip from Almuneca, so wanted to experience the village by night. the hotel is very well situated in the heart of the village, easy walk to the whole of the village. We just had breakfast which was nice but quite basic.

The hotel was fine but the advertised pool was closed despite glorious weather and I felt that overall it was not good value for money.

Since we’d been staying in hostals and pensions this was a noticeable upgrade. Same price range though. Pretty classy. Off season so there weren’t many guests which means the buffets weren’t full on and pool was closed. If I had anything bad to say it would be stiff beds and pillows.

Lovely hotel on the doorstep of a beautiful, hilltop town, great restaurants very close, a good market directly opposite. Very staff, clean hotel, small pool but enough to get in & cool down, a short drive down to Nerja and the beaches. We had a lovely, comfortable stay in a clean room with a terrace

Great Views
Nice Hotel the Receptionist very helpful and the Room Good with lovely Views from the Balcony. We wanted to have a Drink but there was no one working in the Bar, so the Receptionist had to get us one. Went down to have Breakfast at 9.30 but almost everything was Gone and was not been replaced so had to settle for toast. I would recommend eating out instead .

THE BEST VIEWS AND PRIME LOCATION. Came here not expecting much and was blown away. This place is old school but very charming and this town is absolutely incredible. I want to move here ASAP. Beds are a little hard but the views are more than money can buy. Pool was nice when it was hot and siesta time. Didn’t eat at the hotel.

Facilities are fairly basic. A lounge or seating area for guests would enhance the hotel as there was only one hard chair in the room. The balcony only had bar chairs which were not comfortable. It is not possible to sit on the balcony when the sun is out so a parasol or shade is needed. The pool was not inviting as it needed cleaning and looked difficult to get into as the last step was very high! On the plus side, the air conditioning worked well and the reception staff were very friendly and helpful. We only stayed here as our usual villa was booked and as a stop-gap, it was fine.

Nice hotel central to the village
Came to Frigiliana to visit family and knew the feria was on BUT didn't reckon on the band playing till 6am right opposite! Consequently had two sleepless nights made even worse by being told check out was 11am. Also the cleaners seem to leave at 2pm so room was never made up as we slept in. Anyway, normally this hotel would be okay. Central to the village with a car park opposite (10€ a day!) or parking in the road nearby. Rooms quite dated with no tea/coffee making facilities or a fridge. Bathtub and shower very good with extremely hot water. There is a SMALL pool with sun beds too. Didn't try the breakfast so can't comment.

The hotel was closed when we turned up at the door
Had the most awful experience with this hotel. Three weeks before the booking, we received an email saying that they were unable to accept our reservation (despite it being all paid and non-refundable). We called Expedia however they said that the email had been an error. They called the hotel and re-confirmed our reservation. Nonetheless, when we turned up on the day, the hotel was closed with no notice at all. Absolutely terrible and an awfully scary experience.

Cute hotel but hard to find
The location was great and we had a nice view of the town. The room was nicely decorated and had a small balcony with table and chairs overlooking Frigiliana. It was somewhat hard to find, as the address provided took us to a road presumably around the backside of the hotel. After circling the block and some roundabouts a few times we accidently found the front of the hotel. We were also disappointed that the only parking was on the street, but it was along the same street as the hotel and free. We also had to go down to the lobby to access the wifi.

Place to stay in a charming village
stayed here for three nights visiting friends. Mainly chosen because of the location, but because of the price would make a perfect base for exploring the region. Needs some TLC but perfectly comfortable place to stay.

Perfect central location. Owners are lovely.
We stayed here for one night to see the lovely little town of fragiliana. This hotel is right in the center of town, so is a great jump off spot. The rooms were quite nice. Updated well. The breakfast was amazing for the price. The pool is small but sweet. Just a note, the pool is not very private, people walking by can look in to the pool area. We got to know the owners a bit. The woman speaks great English, her husband does not. They are sweet, helpful, lively and hardworking. I would reccomended this hotel.

Generally good and very good value
Generally good and very good value. So overall no complaints. Two particular negative points however; the first being no wireless which for us (and I guess many others nowadays) is not just useful but vital and therefore lack of it when advertised is really annoying and we would have gone elsewhere had we had the choice. Secondly not understanding any English at the reception is frustrating but there was a manager who spoke very good English and when I telephoned once to ask something I only got the reply 'Hotel no English'. No effort was made to find that manager. In spite of this, we recommend the place.

Frigiliana - a forgotten gem
The hotel overlooked the valley leading to Nerja and the sea but also the old Moorish town of Frigiliana which is overshadowed by Nerja but which is quite beautiful and well worth a visit. Charming little bodegas nearby and plenty to see if you are prepared to walk as the streets are very narrow and quite steep. And only a 10 minute drive into Nerja and it's beaches and nightlife. A good place to stay and excellent value for money.

Virkelig dårlig oplevelse
En meget skuffende oplevelse i en ellers fantastisk smuk by. Hotellet og værelset var utrolig slidt. Da vi åbnede døren til toiletter efter en nats søvn, slog en muggen fugt lugt os i møde. Dette stammede fra en masse mug omkring ventilationen. Det var så slemt at vi måtte skynde os at komme i tøjet og komme videre. Vi valgte at aflyse vores morgenmad, grundet vi ikke havde lyst til at få noget et sted fra hvor de var så åbenlyst ligeglad med hygiejne. Det var tydeligt da vi nævnte dette i receptionen at det ikke var nyt for dem.
