Top Maro Hotel Reviews
Hotel Torremar – Mares
"The location is great. The staff are generally friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is 3 star not 4. It's a little tired and in need of refresh. Coffee/tea facilities in room but nothing else. Very clean though. Would stay again because of location and lack of premuim choice in the area."
Hotel Los Arcos
"Everything was excellent. Thanks so much"
La Puerta de Nerja Hostal Boutique
"Front desk was very helpful. Gave good advise on getting 2 day parking - reduced rate , upon arrival."
Nerja VG Hostal Boutique
"Love this hotel! Great location with parking. Loved the rooftop area for watching sunset. Comfy beds, great shower. We will be back."
Sibarys Hotel Boutique
"Sibarys was perfect. Staff rooms, food & facilities. Even though the Feria was on & it was noisy we still enjoyed the Sibarys experience . Breakfast buffet was 8 till 11 & both hot & cold food. Definately will stay here again and have already recommemded to friends."
MB Boutique Hotel - Adult Recommended -
"The hotel was spotlessly clean, it even smelled amazing. Coffee and cakes being available in the afternoon was a nice touch. Breakfast is basic but plenty of food. Being adult only, the hotel was extremely quiet we didn’t hear a sound the whole time we were in the room. The hotel paid parking is quite small so be prepared to have to manoeuvre your car into a tight spot. Although fairly late in the season Nerja was busy with live music, loads of cafes and bars buzzing and it was lovely to see lots of the local women wearing in traditional dress as they enjoyed a Sunday evening stroll."
Nerja Villas Capistrano
"The air conditioning unit was dirty, we fell sick few days because of that"
Hotel Playamaro
"Only one thing there’s a store a few hundred feet away and they stayed up playing loud music past my bed time. I go to bed early."
Hotel Costa Andaluza
"I lived in this hotel for 8 days, very friendly staff, hotel very clean, it is a very nice small hotel in a very small city of Spain (Motril), it has all necessary things to be there as a tourist."
