10/10 Exceptional

A big thank you to the incredible staff at El Dorado. This hotel was absolutely phenomenal from the clean large rooms to the incredible views from the private terraces. The common pool and lounge area was comfortable and beautiful. The center of town was a very short walking distance and the main beach was only 7 minutes on foot. Driving to Playa de Genoveses was only about 15 minutes. Lastly, the staff were exceptionally kind from the housekeepers who were smiling and said hello, to the front desk staff who cheerfully checked us in. Everything was phenomenal!

Excellent Hostal in San Jose, Nijar, Spain

We did only stay the 1 x night as we were en-route from Alicante Airport to Fuengirola. We didn’t arrive until 18:45 but had received, by WhatsApp, clear and precise instructions on how to gain access to our room. The room was comfortable with a very nice sea view terrace. The shower was hot with a steady flow of water. Overall the room was great and the staff, that we met, were very friendly. We will certainly stay here again
The view from our terrace. Apologies for the poor quality pic but the sun was very strong

Very nice place; great breakfast buffet. But I was on the 6th floor and the number of stairs was too much. I wish I’d been on lower floor but no option was given.

Dejligt ophold i godt hostal med fantastisk udsigt

Ligger blot 8 minutters gang fra stranden. Parkering lige uden for døren. Skøn udsigt fra hyggelig lille terrasse. Fin lille pool, som desværre først åbner kl. 10.

Hemos estado en el puente de agosto y se ha respirado tranquilidad, buen aislamiento de la habitación. Aparcamiento fácil teniendo en cuenta las horas puntas. Acceso a los comercios y a la playa de San José, a pie en menos de 10 minutos. Instalaciones muy bien cuidadas.

Sencillo, familiar y funcional

Hostal básico ideal para familias o parejas que buscan tranquilidad. Debido a la orografía del pueblo, el hostal tiene muchas escaleras de acceso, pero está avisado.

Bonitas vistas desde la terraza. La habitación es pequeña pero suficiente para pasar unos días en la zona. Hay muchas escaleras para acceder a algunas habitaciones, eso le da mucho encanto pero puede ser un inconveniente para personas con movilidad reducida . En general es un hostal muy acogedor.

La femme de l'accueil était très sympathique et chaleureuse, pareil pour le reste du personnel. L'hôtel est vraiment agréable et apaisant avec une très belle vue sur la mer depuis la piscine. La chambre était original et confortable avec un petit balcon vue mer également. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour ici

Alto precio en agosto

Muchas escaleras para acceder a la habitacion. Sin ascensor. Explanada de tierra cerca para aparcar. Picina pequeña aunque util si hay viento en el mar. Ducha sin cortinas y balcon sin toldo. Aunque fuesemos en agisto creo que el precio es excesivo, la verdad.
