Independent Hotels on the costa del sol

An independent hotel is one which is owned and run individually, without being part of a larger chain or company. Technically, all those which are not directly related to a hotel chain can be classed as independent.

In these types of hotels, guests can expect a more personalised style of service compared to corporately owned hotels. Moreover, staff who work in these hotels usually have specific and reliable knowledge of the local area, and can therefore generally offer information on the Costa del Sol, activities, best places to eat, and what to see and during your stay.
