This is my second time staying at this hotel. The first time it was during the summer of 2009 and…read moreI had the "Ocean" theme room. The service was great, the room had good AC, and the customer service is good. Now I stayed there again just recently from 3-10 Oct 15 and the service was equally good. Although I've come to find out that the restaurant is under new management and the hotel is renting it out. I would have to say that the food is A LOT tastier from when I remember back in 2009. Everyone speaks English there and so now difficulty in communicating. I stayed in room 411 which was in the corner and it was good. The couch needs to be replaced because there are no more cushions on the arm rests and it feels like the arm rest will fall off soon. I would of given this 5 stars, but the break fast was OK. For one is that breakfast should be open sooner instead of opening up at 8AM, then breakfast closes at 10:30. Not very long as far as service. Then I would recommend in having a different type breakfast dish every day just to mix up the typical daily items you see every day.

I cannot say enough about the staff. From the front desk to the fleet of cleaning ladies. Everyone will greet you with a "Hola, Buenas Dias." The housekeepers usually stop by everyday to see if you need anything, even on the weekends. The attention to detail that the staff shows to the hotel is incredible. From wiping the elevators down with stainless steel cleaner, sweeping and mopping the entire stairwell, and wiping down the fake plants in the lobby. They truly make you feel at home here. The little mini mart in the lobby comes through in a pinch as well. Great job Navy Lodge.

Third time, staying in this hotel in as many years and absolutely love it. Although the rooms are…read moreold and the furniture could use some love, it adds to the character of the facility. Very attentive staff, good parking, garage, and ideally located in the center of town. A must stay place in El Puerto!

This was the quietest, most peaceful hotel I've ever had the pleasure of staying in. And the staff?…read moreWhen they weren't absolutely silent they were polite and friendly. We only ran into the maids once (never heard them!) and the front desk staff changed every few hours but as we were in and out for a few days each person we encountered was extremely pleasant and welcoming. They were quick to call cabs, they helped with directions to restaurants, and they even helped replace a room key that I lost. All with a huge smile. The bed was a California King - unless there's something bigger? It took up almost the whole room. Which was fine with me because who wouldn't want their room to be a bed?! The windows looked out onto some old city walls, no biggie, but the blackout shades kept the warm air out and the blasting sunlight. It could be midnight 24/7 if you want it to be! In addition to the comfy bed and the sultry, dark room, the bathroom was killer. Super modern fixtures with a rain shower (for two) and a massive soaking tub. Possibly for two? My fiancé isn't much of a bather - but that meant more room for me! The toiletries included plenty of towels, separate shampoo/conditioner, soap, and even bubble bath. The room came equipped with a safe, lovely hardwood floors, fliers and info about room service and spa amenities and even a local guide magazine that showed what businesses were nearby. Sadly there wasn't too much activity on Yelp so we did have to rely on other sources a bit. The room rate was insanely affordable (I think around $90-110 a night for a King sleeper?) and you get free breakfast in the mornings from early (7, 8?) till 10:30am. The breakfast was awesome! You could choose from 1-100 items including donuts, various other pastries and cookies, to eggs, toast, charcuterie, fresh fruit, yogurt, and more. There was also instant coffee, tea, and a selection of juices and milk. This was the best meal of my day during our entire stay! If you stayed anywhere but this hotel I'd think you lost your mind.

My little party only stayed in this hotel/hostel for about 6 hours (we needed a place to sleep a…read morelittle during a very packed and time-sensitive road trip), but I was thoroughly impressed by how nice this establishment was. We got a 5 person room with a private bathroom. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our room actually had private bathrooms for both men and women, and that made the whole sharing-a-restroom necessity much easier and more convenient. Everything was very clean, the beds were soft and comfy, and the bathrooms had showers with hot water (surprisingly not a given in some hostels). The location is quite easy to find (even at 3 in the morning), the receptionist was incredibly welcoming and helpful, and there is an underground parking garage right in front of the building. Even though we only stayed at this hostel for a few hours, it was actually a very nice experience. I would definitely recommend this place if you're traveling through Spain and need a place to crash for a night.

The hotel staff spoke fluent English and always were very courteous and helpful. The biggest problem was with noise. We were on the first floor facing the parking lot. Even with the windows closed, the noise carried through interrupting our sleep. Also, someone in the floors above allowed their child(s) to run up and down the hallway which also made sleeping hard. If it wasn't for the noise factor, I would rate this place much higher.

Super friendly staff who gets 5-stars, room nice 3 stars-the old timey radiator that wasn't turned up during the night 1 star! Food was 3.5 stars. Free meals and a nice buffet was provided with a delicious lunch. Fish in a wonderful sauce that I wish I cold duplicate, roasted chicken, veggies and fries for kids. Our night stay was a chilly one. Radiator in our room was barely heating up my thumb. The next morning they brought up a portable heater and turned up the radiator-duh. Single beds only-typical Euro hotel where you will never find a double bed. Nice corner suite with a great view. English is limited.

My husband and I came here for a wedding in October. The wedding was held here so we decided to…read morestay here to make everything much simpler, and we are glad we did. The only issue that we ran into was that there wasn't a late night option for food whenever we arrived on Thursday night. However, we were able to ask the front desk and they gave us directions to a pizza shop up the street that we were able to walk to, so crisis averted. Furthermore, the front desk was very helpful. They were friendly and provided us with the information we needed - included the ferry departure schedule, which allowed us to reach the ferry right in the nick of time! The room itself was wonderful and spacious! We didn't realize that it had a pull out bed in addition to the bed in the bedroom. Important things for me are having hot water with strong pressure, which this place had. The extras that I like are having robes and slippers, which this place also had. We didn't purchase the option for breakfast because we knew we would be getting in very late. But you were able to purchase it whichever day you'd like. We had breakfast at the hotel on the last day. The selection was very wide for food. My husband and I have the complete opposite tastes in what we like to eat and we were both satisfied with the options. The wedding was beautiful! They had the ceremony on the rooftop by the beach club. The ceremony was at 2 pm and it was very warm. The rooftop had minimal shade so it was quite warm and a little uncomfortable in the direct sunlight. Luckily the ceremony wasn't too long and they had water available. The views of the sea behind the couple and the wedding party were gorgeous though. The reception was held in a courtyard style room on the floor before. It was naturally beautiful with pink flowers (that I call veraneras) adorning the walls in addition to the flower decor from the actual wedding. The entrance to the room led you out to the seawall overlooking the sea. That room was a spectacular venue as it was open aired (with fresh sea wind) but also mostly covered so we had a break from the sun. We were able to eat, dance and be merry the whole night! This hotel itself is a short 5-minute drive (or a longer walk) to downtown Rota. My husband and I were happy to have rented a car. We flew into Sevilla and drove to Rota (2.5 hours because we stopped at other towns along the way) and it was helpful to get us to the nightlife in Rota but also to the ferry quickly. If you're looking for a wonderful and comfortable spot in Rota to hang your hat, I highly recommend this hotel!

Room is kinda small and stuffy without the AC on. I didn't realize I can open the window for fresh breeze until two days before check out. It was kinda loud being by the pool area so I didn't get much sleep. I will definitely stay away from pool area next time. I really like the staffs here, everyone from housecleaning to receptionist goes beyond to welcome you and make you feel comfortable. Evening staff, Manuel, was very quick to print out documents for me at 4 am, which was very much appreciated. I booked half board so the room came with buffet breakfast and dinner. It was very filling and I loved it. I missed my last buffet breakfast because I had to leave early and the staff provided a to go breakfast for me which was very kind service to me. Overall, great hotel and will definitely return in the future.
