The room has an unbearable smell of cigarette that makes me feel really bad at the point that I can not sleep, and I am feeling really bad. I talked to the receptionist right after the check in and he said that he can not do anything to help us, and the fault is of the prior guest that smoked and it’s not his problem It’s disgusting

We were a bit dubious about staying at The Al Faro. Staff were lovey, happy and so helpful. The property is not 5 star and there were some elements pf ware and age. But we loved it! Everything was so close by. Restaurants and Bars and the Old Town is just 2 roads away. The pool area was quiet and the seating area outside suited us. No fighting for being served. Receptionist was 24hrs.. The kitchenette was small but having a fridge was what we needed most. Hairdryer, Iron and small ironing board. We did hear some strange noises one night, not sure if it was the lift or the pipes. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Hotel El Faro is a fantastic place to stay.
We decided to stay at this hotel for locality to the beach and bars in Marbella. This hotel certainly didn't disappoint. We had an amazing time and the staff were fantastic. Even though we were a stag party of 12 men, the staff made us feel welcome and even joined in with some of our fun activities. The hotel has a nice pool area and seating area to relax and was generally quiet which meant we all had an area to relax in during the mornings or day time when we wasn't out and about. We would all highly recommend this place to anyone wishing to stay in Marbella.
