Last minute booking and all our requests were met. Happy, helpful staff, we speak reasonable Spanish but the staff were more than happy to speak English to us. We did not eat in the hotel so cannot comment on that, sorry. The room was emaculately clean, the bed was comfortable with 4 pillows, the shower amazing with some complimentary toiletries (we stayed in room 114). Small fridge in the room too which had 2 small bottles of water in it. Our room faced the street with a small balcony, patio doors and french doors, together with the shutter meant we heard no noise! AC unit independent so you choose the temperature. Location was great, next to the theatre, bars and restaurants, only 600 metres from the marina, indoor market, which is worth a visit. Turn left out of the hotel, left after the theatre and work your way through the streets to the cathedral. Enjoy your stay, both the city and hotel are fabulous. We will definitely choose it again!

Nothing

Location was perfect, Room small but was fresh and clean,and quiet. we slept well and was happy to have little fridge to keep water cool.Thank you.

We would have loved a kettle and cups for a cup of tea.!!!

If you are travelling to Almeria for holiday and looking for a hotel, look no further than Hotel Costasol. There are many reasons for this recommendation. LOCATION – It is centrally placed in the city along a main thoroughfare. Bus 30 from the airport drops you about 6-10 mins walk from the hotel. The vast majority of the tourist sites and the promenade are within walking distance. We were there for four days and apart from the bus from/to the airport, we did not use any other transport. We walked to all the tourist sites. ROOM – The room was a good size (we had opted for a slightly bigger room) and it was done up nice. The beds were comfortable and multiple pillows were provided. The only downside for us was that there was no kettle with associated tea bags and coffee etc that hotels in UK generally provide. This was easily rectified by the front desk when we asked for a kettle. However, we had to buy the tea bags and milk at a local shop – not an issue. ROOM CLEANING – Spic and Span when we came back for a siesta after out morning touring each day. BREAKFAST – Continental breakfast is provided with ample variations. For those used to a strong cuppa (like me), I would recommend you bring some tea bags with you to breakfast as most/all the tea bags were of a flavoured or mild type. STAFF – The front desk was always manned, and all the staff were polite, helpful and always greeted you with a smile. We asked them about various things during our stay and they were always very helpful. Very good.

The room was clean and airy. Everything worked well and the shower facilities were first class. There was hot water all the time. The hotel is close to the sea front and within easy walking distance to the sea front restaurants.

Almeria itself was a little disappointing. There was little to do if you didn't want to lay on the beach all day. There is culture there but we needed to use the rad train to be able to access it all.

Fantastic location for a start. The reception staff are extremely helpful. The room was small but had everything needed, the bed was so comfortable! Also it was a nice and quiet room. The best part is the wonderful rooftop terrace where you can sit and relax and look at the view!

The room was very dark during the day with little daylight ( only a wall outside the window) Little fresh air coming in. the terrace was only open 10am-10.30pm which, as a smoker, was a shame as the only option for a last smoke is to stand outside the front door on a main street ( in pyjamas;)

Very nice hotel in very nice area of city, overall good quality of everything (besides the taste of tap water, but that's an Almeria issue), nice coffee and vending machine and nice breakfast for a reasonable price. Good noise insulation from the street, beautiful roof top terrace.

I had a single room with an strange bathroom setup with an uncomfortable very narrow toilet area. The hotel being so quiet (double double windows!) what I could actually hear was the AC on my neighbours' terrace go on and off, probably more vibration through the ground than noise itself.

All the staff members were really friendly and helpful. Location was in the center of the city, 15 min walk to the beach, 7 min walk to the Alcazaba and cathedral, 5 min walk to get a bus (costs are €1,05 pp) to Centro Commercial and a 12 min ride to the airport by taxi or about 20 min with the bus (also €1,05). The hotel also has a very nice rooftop on the 6th floor with an amazing view. The room had a bathtub, shampoo, new towels everyday, bed was made everyday and also clean floors.

We first got a room with a lot of noice of airconditioning from the outside of the room, got worse by night. But we got another room as soon we told them the problem.

The hotel was situated in the city centre, around 1 km from the beach and the station. We had a quiet room with a fridge and an old but working A/C. The room was cleaned every day and it was spacious. In the bathroom there was a window.

The beds and some parts seemed to be renovated but some parts, like the door, the A/C and the whole bathroom were older. The beds were not very comfortable, the A/C and the fridge were much too noisy so we had to turn them off for the night. You have to use a key with a heavy keyring to get to the room, not a modern card which you can see in every modern hotel.

Lovely hotel ideal for our one night stay whilst in transit from Barcelona to Los Gallardos, arrived early and although our original room wasnt ready the receptionist quickly changed us to the same room on a different floor that was ready most accomodating and helpful, the room was clean, a fair size, comfy bed, location perfect for us only 10 min walk to bus station, breakfast was good if a bit basic (no hot food) but still plenty of choice

There wasnt any tea/coffee making facilities in the room

The welcome. Very helpful reception (Antonio). Room size and facilities. Cleanliness. Help yourself breakfast "library" with lots of choice to suit all tastes. Value for money given the high standard. Well located close to shops, bars and restaurants etc. also quite close to the sea, marina and Playa.

An on site bar would be a bonus but other bars and restaurants are within close proximity.
