Would go again
Location is brilliant for restaurants, shops and the beach. Beautifully clean hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nothing was a problem for them. Breakfast food was good. Good selection of foods and beverages. Dip pool was lovely and clean. Pool bar made very good cocktails. Can’t fault this place. When we had our flight cancelled by our airline and needed a room for another night for four of us, staff at this hotel remained calm (which helped to calm us) and accommodated us for another night. They were very kind and understanding of our situation which made a stressful situation so much more manageable.

Thank you so much for this truly wonderful review! Reading every word made us very proud and we are so happy to hear that the location, the cleanliness, the breakfast, the pool and the cocktails all hit the mark.
But what really touched us was reading about the flight cancellation. We can only imagine how stressful that must have been, and we are so glad our team was able to remain calm and find a solution quickly for all four of you. That is exactly the kind of hospitality we believe in, being there for our guests not just in the easy moments but in the difficult ones too.
Thank you for trusting us in that moment. It means more than you know.
We very much hope to welcome you back under happier travel circumstances next time! You will always be more than welcome at Obal Hotel Marbella.
Warm regards,

Location really super. Historic center behind hotel and 200 meters from the beach.
Bathroom joints between tiles may be slightly cleaner. Not dirty but not 100% either. No room slippers.
Everyone very friendly and fantastic breakfast.
Small pool on 5th floor but not for swimming. Is shallow. 50 cm. Cool down a little.
Paid parking in parking garage within walking distance. Own place.
Recommended! (And we are always critical)
Not cheap but good price / quality ratio.

Thank you very much for your detailed and honest review, and especially for your recommendation – even more valuable coming from someone who describes themselves as always critical!
We are delighted to hear that the location, staff, breakfast, and value for money met your expectations. We take your comment regarding the bathroom grout seriously and will pass it on to our housekeeping team so this detail can be improved. We also appreciate your remark about the room slippers and will take it into consideration.
Regarding the pool, you are absolutely right that it is designed as a lounge pool, intended for cooling off and relaxing rather than for swimming laps. We always try to communicate this clearly to our guests in advance.
We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again soon to Obal Hotel Marbella. You are always very welcome!

Expensive but essentially paying for the location.
Very nice hotel, great location. Room was small but OK although the price was high but its summer in Marbella so to be expected. Breakfast was OK, nothing special like the breakfast at The Amare just down the road. I prefer a chef to make fresh eggs to order in the morning not ones that have been sat there for a while. Nice roof top pool with limited loungers, annoying that it didn't open until 11.00am each day and if you weren't there by 11.05am you didn't get a sunlounger but they are limited for space. I would stay again but not at summer prices.
