“Charming and comfortable Hostal in Great location.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed for a week in the suite with a great view of the D'alt Villa (old town). The suite has its own bathroom and shower, AC, TV, small safe, fridge, couch and plenty of space. Free WIFI is also available.

The location is great, in the middle of town, between the two main squares (Plaza del Parque and Vara de Rey). We took the bus, #10, from the airport, it only costs 3.35 Euros per person each way and you buy the ticket on the bus. The bus (http://www.ibizabus.com/Page18.html) passes by the Paseo Vara de Rey and we got off at the next stop by the port. It's just a few minutes to walk back to Paseo Vara de Rey 7 and the sign for the Hostal is quite easy to find. In case you miss getting off the bus at the port then it will continue to the main bus station and you will have a longer walk, maybe 10 minutes, to get to Casa de Huespedes Vara de Rey. The main bus station is also where all the buses to the other places on Ibiza leaves from.

The place is on the third floor, 55 steps, but the owner Louis was waiting for us when we arrived and helped us with the luggage. There is a winch at the top of the stairs which he used to get our bags lifted to the 3rd floor.

Louis was very friendly and helpful. Providing us with suggestions on where to eat and so on.

In the mornings we had breakfast either at Madagascar Cafe on Plaza del Parque, right below our suite or at Cafeteria Ebusus just across Paseo Vara de Rey. Both places were very nice and not too expensive.

Louis suggested a few not too expensive places for lunch or dinner. We tried Bon Profit across from Cafe Madagascar at Plaza del Parque and Comidas Bar San Juan at Montgri 8 (3 blocks from Plaza del Parque) and liked them both. They are very popular, there is usually a line outside when they open and the table might be shared, which means you might meet some interesting people. :-)

We made our reservation at http://hibiza.com/ and sent a few e-mails afterwards with questions which were quickly responded to.

Room Tip: The suite with the view of the D'alt Villa!

“Psychotic, Irrational Manager”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011

person found this review helpful

This hotel in ibiza didn't take down my correct cc information and decided to email every person on my work website (which was on my signature and she also included people from organizations that are completely unrelated to me) instead of just calling or emailing me because they "didn't want to harass me" - describing to my cohort, managers, the dean, and several unknowns a rather long narrative that I am denying paying the hotel balance; oh and they forwarded all the past correspondence leading up to our stay at the hotel which included my full CC information. Fortunately, that account is closed now. But not the most rational thinking place to stay...in fact everything was a bit counterintuitive.

“Perfect Spot”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Very glad we stayed here for 5 nights this past week. Located in one of the main squares in Ibiza town. Lovely old building, we stayed in room 3 - a double overlooking the square. Full of character, well soundproofed, and nice aircon. Great value and look forward to going back next year. We found a great drinks spot down stairs (Madagascar) and also a good breakast place also (forget the name but it's on the corner of the same block as Madagascar, but at the other end of the block)

Staying in a pension in ibiza town made a change from a hotel with a pool - which we didn't miss at all (beaches are much more fun than pools anyway!) Highly recommended

“Great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed for 3 nights at the start of our week in Ibiza. We had the best room in the house which got us a big room with a seating area and big windows that you could open onto a teeny tiny balcony to get a fantastic view of Dalt Vila.
We thought it would be noisy being so central but with the windows closed we didn't hear a thing! The room had air con which was brilliant in the heat.
We did consider staying in Dalt Vila but are glad we stayed here and got the fantastic "money can't buy" view instead!!
This place is great value for it's location - there are countless shops, bars and restaurants on the doorstep, although Ibiza town is really small so nowhere is very far.
There are no facilities but there are countless places to have breakfast etc.
Highly recommended

Room Tip: Have the special suite - the best room - if you can.
