La Posada de Paco

This hotel was ideally situated a short stroll from the beach, the little port and many restaurants. It is a new smart little place with on-site parking and a small pool, and is easily found on the right as you enter San Jose on the main road. Our room was bright and clean, fully equipped, quiet and comfortable. The hotel promotes 'spa' treatments, but we did not try these out. Breakfast was good, with plenty of options, fruit, and good coffee. You take breakfast in a light, spacious lower floor room; maybe it was the acoustic of the room, or the absence of background music, but while we were at the hotel this room was very quiet. Overall we thought that this was a good value option for a few days in San Jose, and a great centre for exploring the Almeria pensular.

We spent three nights at Hotel La Posado de Paco in San Jose, which was an excellent base from which to explore the Cabo de Gato's rugged coastline and remote beaches. It's a nice little hotel, a little way from the hustle and bustle of the harbour. If you want a sea view from your balcony look elsewhere but if you want somewhere quiet and relaxed this is the place for you. There's a no children policy but that was just fine with us. We particularly enjoyed the spa, which was included in our €115 room rate. But if you don't want to use it there are cheaper rooms available without access to it at around €80. An excellent choice.

Really enjoyed our stay in San Jose, great place full of character. Hotel very clean and modern, simple decor. Rooms attractive and well equipped for the money. We visited in mid May and got to use the Spa facilities included, the Spa was small but lovely , really enjoyed it.The Pool is small but clean and modern, I suppose it may be too small if the hotel was full in peak times. Breakfast was simple but good, it included Cereal, Toast, Pastries, fruit, yogurt, cold meats and cheese. Freshly squeezed orange juice was lovely. The location was very good , close to bars and restaurants. The staff were pleasant and professional. We would definitely stay here again.

We spent 2 nights in this 2 star hotel. We had a 1st floor room which was a reasonable size as was the bathroom. The small balcony looked over a side street so it was very quiet. With the room we had we had use of the spa faciities which were excellent. Breakfast was more that adequeate. The staff were very hepful and we wil certainly return again soon. It is a short walk to the beach with its many fish resturants which were not over priced. It also has a free private car park which is secured at night.

I was very impressed with this hotel. The location is perfect for getting to the beach, taking the bus to the Calas, going for a run in the mountain. The rooms in the hotel are very comfortable, each one has a terrace and a television with a USB input. The spa is very nice, very modern. The staff are also great, I left an item in the hotel by accident and they posted it to me which was a bit of a life-saver. Thumbs up!

Good hotel with convenient location. Nice big room, with a balcony to the road on the front and an OK bathroom with bath. Fridge in room a bonus. Free wi-fi weak and kept dropping out. It's been revamped / repainted quite recently but is an old building. No hotel lobby or communal space. Bit like a car park. Swimming pool very thin, not much use really, though outside seating is useful when the sun moves off the front balconies. Breakfast is a buffet and very nice with some quality ingredients and, thankfully, a few types of brown bread. Dining area in the basement quite bland. Staff friendly enough without being charming. Location is opposite a supermarket and strip of restaurants. Mixed blessing this as you get traffic for the supermarket, buskers etc, though it's not like Morrisons on a Saturday morning.
