Find the Cheap Nerja Hotels

We booked a Superior room bed & breakfast for two weeks in January. This is what we liked … The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Rosa & the cleaning ladies. The place was very clean. The room had air con which you could turn up if you wanted some heat in the evening. The water was always hot in the walk in shower. The bed was huge and comfy. There was a safe in the large wardrobe. The patio had 2 plastic chairs and a table plus 2 sun beds (no cushions). It was very quiet once the bathroom window was closed. There’s bath & hand towels, as well as pool towels, soap dispenser and hair drier. There was a fridge in the room too (Tip: keep the cupboard door open as much as possible so the fridge stays cold. Not sure why it’s kept in a cupboard?) Mercadona supermarket next door, very handy for cold drinks, snacks etc. There’s car parking at the front and back of the hotel if needed. Best of all, it’s no smoking!! Things I can’t say we didn’t like, but were downsides to staying there. The restaurant was closed for the whole of January which we didn’t know. We did find some lovely places to eat though. It’s a long way to walk to the beach and most restaurants, but there is a bus (number 1) that drops you off outside the hotel so you don’t have to walk back. Stops at 9pm. This bus only does a circular and isn’t the Alsa bus. The breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. We got over that by buying our own cereal and fresh milk from Mercadona and eating it in the breakfast room. The pillows were really hard so we asked for some softer ones. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff.

So, sure, the accommodation is a bit dated and basic. The bathrooms could be bigger but the shower was powerful. However, the one bedroom apartments are spacious especially the Lounge/ Kitchen and for a family of four, like us (kids aged 7 & 10) there was plenty of space even with the sofa bed pulled out. Having eaten in quite a few buffet’s, the food here (as most people have commented) is sensational! Such high quality, healthy, delicious meals. Everyday, there are at least two different types of fresh fish on the menu - I have tried so many, such as John Dory, Sunfish, Tilapia, Hake, Tuna, Cod….. Everyday, they have a roast alternating with all the different meats, chicken, turkey, beef, lamp, pork. There’s always a variety of pizza, pasta, chips. But it’s all the fresh Spanish/ Mediterranean dishes which are so tasty because this hotel prior to the pandemic, only catered for Spanish. This has changed since with English, Irish and German guests. Despite this, there’s an authentic Spanish feel to this resort - I love that, having done all the Tui/ Thomas Cook types of resort with Brits acting like, well, you know what. Now for the entertainment. The kids get tattoos, balloon animals made for them and after the kids disco and games, the shows in the evening are impressive with professional dancers, acrobats, singers etc. There are pool aerobics classes during the day and staff are so engaging, funny, it’s in their blood to entertain and they love it. Jessica, in particular, is a natural entertainer and could be a presenter on a TV programme. She makes sure that the Spanish and English speaking guests are well catered for. This place is a gem. Great location, lovely pools, right on the beach. Sun loungers available, just don’t leave it too long, for the loungers or to book!

Literally just got back today after a 4 day holiday in Nerja where we stayed at The Plaza Cavana. We were assigned room 304 with a sea view terrace. WOW! The views of the church and the Med were incredible. But what made our stay so special was the fantastic service we received from each and every member of staff at the hotel. The location is right at the very heart of the beautiful village of Nerja. The roof top pool is a huge bonus and like the rest of the hotel immaculately clean. We can't wait to book our next trip to the rather wonderful Plaza Cavana Hotel

Check in would've been easy but we only had my husbands passport! Luckily we had a photo of it which was accepted. Beautiful room on the second floor, air conditioning, fridge, complimentary water, shampoo etc, comfortable bed, very well appointed. The hotel is so convenient close to the centre of Nerja and close to a car park...22€ for less than 24 hours. We will be back. The upstairs bar and jacuzzi were a bonus..not connected to the hotel, but fabulous views over Nerja, amazing cocktails and tapas.

Very basic place but for the money I really couldn’t complain…. If you stay here your definitely best to have a car to get to the beach, town etc as it’s quiet a distance if your walking … Air conditioning worked great, bed nice and comfortable and the room was also spacious. We chose not to eat in the hotel as the breakfast was basic ham, cheese, bread etc All in all worth it for the price.
