“Great location, Comfortable efficient hotel, if a bit noisy”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

We stayed here Sept 11 for 3 nights, in room 118 which was the furthest from reception down a very long corridor.

Reception was efficient and spoke very good English (Although using the term friendly may be forcing the issue somewhat). The room was large, clean and nicley decorated - very large double bed, flat screen tv and fridge (with mini bar). Bathroom was nice and had a bath / shower. The free wifi worked wonderfully.

The room overlooked a quaint little pedestrian alleyway which was nice. However our only criticism was it was quite noisy - I know a town centre hotel is bound to suffer from this to some degree, and we generally stay in town centre hotels, bt this was a bit above the norm. Also there was hoovering at 11pm in an adjacent / upstairs room for some reason !

Location is possibly as good as it can get for the price - 5 mins walk from the middle of the town. We arrived / departed by train, the station a 15 / 20 min gentle walk away.

Check out was efficient, no issues or dramas (...and again - efficient as opposed to warm or friendly ). Would we stay here again ? Probably as it was just about everything we needed - and other rooms may be quieter. (oh...and why o why do Spanish hotels persist with those all in one mamoth 5ft long pillow ?).

“Great experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2011

My family stayed at the hotel for ten days, to include over the Semana Santa (Holy Week) period. The hotel is nearly adjacent to the old market, next door to a small grocery store, a five-minute walk from the main square and numerous restaurants, and within walking distance of many city sights. The front desk staff was extremely courteous, helpful, friendly, and were well versed in English. The room was clean and spacious. The extra 11 Euro per day for parking was worth the investment, particularly when returning to the hotel late at night when public parking was near non-existent. We did not use the hotel restaurant as there were so many other available options nearvy. Some might not enjoy noises from the street, and particularly if the balcony doors are open. But for me, the sounds of people enjoying life and random Mopeds scooting by provided for an accurate Spanish city environment. We would definitely return to the hotel, and particularly if wanting a place to stay for special events scheduled to be held in the city.

“Really good stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2011

Booked this Hotel for it's low cost, as we were travelling to Jerez for Formula 1 testing at the local circuit. All reception staff spoke fantastic English (it made up for our appalling Spanish!), and were very helpful in getting us transport to and from the circuit each day.

Room was very nicely decorated, with a balcony looking out onto the narrow Jerez streets. Hot water was a little patchy, but only served to wake us up! Breakfast was served in a small restaurant area, with a very-well attended to Continental selection.

Will definitely stay here again if going back to Jerez.

“Perfect for a short say, well situated, value for money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 July 2010

person found this review helpful

We stayed, parents and son, 4 nights in this hotel.
The personnel at reception could not have been more helpful for all sort of advice such as Flamenco evening, zoo, bodegas... and very professional.
The rooms were well appointed and very clean with good beds and efficient soundproofing.
The breakfast room itself is a bit sad and the breakfast not terribly exciting!
Finally, it was very easy to find, even without a sat.nav., so well situated for visiting this great town and it was a real bonus to be able to use the adjacent car park.

“Noisy”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2010

person found this review helpful

This hotel was very well located within walking distance to the center of the town and many Bodegas like Tio Pepe. The hotel offered parking at 11 Euros per day, unfortunately our car was too big and were unable to park. Next option was many blocks away in the middle of nowhere. The hotel itself is very well kept, clean and cozy. We had problems with the hot water, coming in and out while taking a shower. The noise level was high at all times, if you are a light sleeper this is not for you. At first the staff was very helpful and nice, then when we were unable to attend to a flamenco show they have reserved for us and proceeded to charge our account, they got nasty and rude.
