Rooms at this luxury boutique hotel all include terracotta floors, sandstone baths and fine fabrics. All have a different theme, exclusive furniture and a bathroom with Molton Brown toiletries, a bathrobe and slippers.

Amazing boutique hotel in the heart of Marbella, situated right in the old town, excellent location and short walking distance to the beach. The hotel is very elegant and filled with art, the room was very beautiful and sparkling clean, with great facilities, complementary minibar etc. The staff was extremely attentive and helped you with anything from recommendations and reservations to restaurants and bars, to setting up airport transfer etc, always wanting to make sure you’re having a good time. They accomodated us even though we arrived early, they were very professional and friendly and made our stay in Marbella great. The breakfast was delicious and the view from the rooftop terrace made it even better. Would definitely reccomend this hotel if you plan on visiting Marbella!

The rooms at this boutique hotel are all different, each with its own personality, and include a flat-screen TV and full heating and air conditioning. Bedding is made of 100% cotton, and all rooms have eco-friendly toiletries.

Marta is fantastic - I can’t say it enough!! Marta communicated with us before we arrived to prepare our requests and set our expectations about the location, and she bent over backwards to help get our rental car fixed, give us recommends on places to visit and eat at, and always looked after us. The location of the hotel can’t be beat (especially for the price)… right in the middle of Old Town Marbella and next to fantastic restaurants, all without getting noisy at night.
