The rooms of hotel San Cristóbal in Marbella

The hotel offers rooms of different categories: standard, premium and triple rooms. Our economy double room was small (other rooms are more spacious), even a bit cramped, but for an “overnight stay” for two it was quite acceptable. Room could do with a refresh, the room itself was clean and comfortable, cleaning is carried out daily with change of towels, and here the bathroom removed so-so - peculiar minus.

In the room: double bed, high and comfortable mattress, new bedding, two bedside tables with lamps, two chairs and a Desk; refrigerator mini bar; TV (Pro TV know, TV was never turned on); quite a spacious wardrobe, mirror and a split system. The closet has a safe, you can use for an additional fee.

Free Wi-Fi fished very well throughout the hotel, without interruption.

The balcony is narrow, on the balcony are two plastic chairs.

In the private bathroom: bathtub (small), toilet, bidet, sink and mirror, two sets of towels, as well as free toiletries: shampoo, soap, shower cap, two combs and a washcloth.

If you wish, Breakfast can be purchased directly at the restaurant at any time, which is also very convenient. You can also buy lunch and dinner for 13.50 - 15 euros per person.

A buffet breakfast is served in the restaurant on the second floor of the hotel. The breakfast is tasty, the choice of dishes is not bad, the only minus is that breakfast does not change every day, it is always the same, and for several days we were tired of it. Coffee from a coffee machine is so-so, but compared to some other hotels of this category it is quite decent, which, personally, was a plus for us.
