  Not for tourists

  15 Jul 2024

  When we arrived at this hotel we showed our passports, were given a room key and the receptionist said "that's it". So we said "we've paid for breakfast and dinner", she said "breakfast at 8, dinner at 8". That was it. There was no information in our rooms or anything. When we went down for dinner I used Google translate on my phone and showed it to the bar staff to read "we are staying in the hotel, what can we order for dinner?" They said "anything from the menu" and pointed to a QR code, so we ordered from that menu - 2 burgers. They were incredibly tasty!!The staff were lovely, friendly, smiley. After dinner I asked if I could pay for our drinks, which they gave me a receipt for, nobody mentioned anything else to us and we went to bed. The next morning for breakfast we did the same, ordered from the menu and left afterwards. When we sat down for dinner one of the staff came over and said that we had made a mistake, we weren't allowed to order from the main menu and we should have mentioned we were hotel guests (which we did). She read us a menu with just 2 choices for each course and my god was the food vile. The pork was raw and I was given a whole fish, battered, head and all but no appropriate cutlery to eat it with, we left the food. It felt like we had been naughty and we're being punished with their worst food. Previously when I had asked for wine I was given a glass of a very nice wine, this time when I asked I was given a bottle of wine that costs €1 in the shop equal to paint stripper.We also felt really uncomfortable from that moment on, we felt as though we weren't welcome. We ate from the restaurant menu the following lunchtime (obviously aware we would have to pay for it) and people were staring at us the whole time. And the staff did not engage with us at all.I think the language barrier was a huge factor but we tried our best to speak the language and used Google translate for the rest, I feel like this hotel is a popular place for locals but not very welcoming to tourists and they should really have an info pack in multiple different languages explaining their process for half board etc to save their guests the dire embarrassment we felt. Aside from all of this the NOISE LEVEL was outrageous 😱😱😱 we could hear every word the room next to us were speaking, every door close, every toilet flush, on our final night we slept absolutely terribly because the hotel was very busy. I wouldn't stay here again and I wouldn't visit this part of Spain again, it's clear you're only welcome if you're Spanish.

  Fabulous hotel

  07 Jul 2019

  Found this hotel on our Camino walk and stayed here 2 nights for a break. The staff are friendly and helpful and the room clean and light and spacious - all newly refurbished last year in a clean bright contemporary style . The bed is the most comfortable I’ve slept in for ages and our en suite bathroom is delightful . The hotel is centrally located in this small town with easy access to the beach and lots of local restaurants and cafes . They have their own cafe / bar restaurant in the hotel and the food there is excellent value for money . Great atmosphere as it is used by both locals and visitors . I really cannot fault this hotel and I would certainly stay here again .

  A very nice hotel where the staff were very helpful. Its is perfectly placed for the centre of the town and is also handy for accessing the Camino route. The breakfast that was provided was ample and tasty. Very enjoyable stay thanks.

  Pit stop in Cee

  24 Apr 2016

  Hotel La Marina was cheap and comfortable. Very dated decor, could do with freshening up but plenty of towels and clean room, close to everything, would recommend for a short stay. Owner friendly and allowed us to have our room before 12.00 noon which is not usual for most hotels, quiet place
