Hotel Lorcrimar - Marbella, Spain 

A great hotel for anyone wanting to visit Puerto Banus and the surrounding area of the Costa Del Sol, at a very affordable price. The hotel is about 20 - 25mins walk from Banus which in my book is no time at all. It is a very comfortable hotel with friendly staff and an excellent pool area. A little difficult to find if driving but if arriving from the West, about 1km from Banus, look to the left and when you see the hotel, take the next right, through the underpass of the A7, then rejoin the main road heading West, hotel is now on the right. If arriving from the East, after passing the Casino, West of Banus, look for the hotel on the right. Plenty of parking as well which is not always available for free elsewhere. Yes the main road outside is a little noisy but I'm a city boy so didn't bother me. If you like the sun late evening, ask for a room which is at the rear of the hotel, opposite side to main entrance, as the sun remains on your balcony til late. Suggestion: Fruit at breakfast would be nice as an option.
