I had high hopes for this hotel, given its charming proximity to the beach. The rooms were clean and offered a lovely view, which was a definite plus. However, my dining experience left much to be desired, especially given the inflated prices for basic items. While the staff seemed friendly enough, the service could have been improved. All in all, it's a mixed bag of positives and negatives that I wouldn't rush back to.

I had a lovely stay at El Refugio, a charming and clean hotel near Comillas. The nice terrace and beautiful sea views made it a relaxing getaway. The welcoming atmosphere and helpful staff really stood out for me. However, I was a bit disappointed by the small room size and limited dining options during my visit, particularly in the evening when the food from the nearby restaurant wasn't satisfactory.

We visited El Refugio for a short stay, and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel was clean and comfortable with a lovely terrace view of the sea. The staff, especially Abraham, was incredibly helpful and made us feel right at home. However, the hotel restaurant wasn't open during our visit, which was a minor letdown. Overall, it was a peaceful place that I would happily return to.

We had a delightful three-night stay at El Refugio, where the atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming. The hotel was clean and featured a lovely terrace with a beautiful sea view. On the downside, our dining experience was quite disappointing as the food took a long time to arrive and didn’t meet our expectations. Overall, we found good value for our stay, especially with the accessible parking.

I had a wonderful stay at El Refugio in Cobreces. The hotel was not only welcoming and clean, but also provided stunning views from our lovely terrace. Abraham was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, which added to the experience. The restaurant wasn’t open yet, but we enjoyed great meals nearby. The peaceful atmosphere and easy access made it a delightful getaway, although I would have preferred a larger room for more comfort.

I had a wonderful stay at a clean and friendly hotel right by the beach. The accommodations were comfortable, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. However, the rooms were a bit small for our liking, and shared balconies meant we had limited privacy. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, perfect for a relaxing getaway.
