Hotel Mar Comillas By Mij

“Good option in Comillas”

I really liked this hotel! The views of the area are gorgeous, and it's not a far walk from downtown. The breakfast was really good. The pool was nice, but I wish you didn't have to pay more for the spa area. The room was spacious, clean, and had a nice view.

“Fantastic stop over”

What a pleasant stop over for the night while walking the Camino del Norte at Abba Comillas. The room was airy, comfortable, clean and had a beautiful and large balcony with fantastic views where we enjoyed chilled wine. We were there off season (most guests were actually pilgrims), so it was all quiet but the hotel clearly was understaffed. Excellent breakfast served in a bright dining room with sea views. Just a comment for management : private balconies are major assets to chill but why on earth having so uncomfortable furniture (esp. seating) ? By the way, Comillas is a thrilling stop on the Camino. The sea front offers great eating options for dinner (assume circa 30 min. walk from hotel).

“Has Potential”

This hotel has so much potential. Great location. Nice ocean views from one side of the hotel- Mountain View’s from the other. It lacks a little love and attention.

This hotel has so much potential. Great location. Nice ocean views from one side of the hotel- Mountain View’s from the other. It lacks a little love and attention. First off, if you are a spa person this is not the typical spa you might be expecting. The “spa” is basically a glassed off area on the other side of the indoor pool with mediocre sauna, steam and jacuzzi. Oh and you have to pay to use it. Kinda strange. You also need a swim cap. Fitness room, again, lots of potential! Huge room and plenty of equipment. Very dated though. I tried the rowing machine and the straps were broken and the machine was old, hard to use. They also have a sign that says to wipe down equipment. I found 2 spray bottles of something in the corner of the room with a used rag. Not exactly the ideal if they are worried about hygiene. The breakfast- lots of potential but lacking quality. The fruit table is wonderful and so is the coffee! However, there are no nice jams or homemade anything. There were scrambled eggs one morning and sunny side up eggs another but they were doused in oil. Plenty of cold cut meats and sliced cheese. The room- basic. Bed was comfortable. They don’t really use the outside terrace that has a lovely view. They could have breakfast tables set up out there with umbrellas and nice outdoor furniture to sit in and have a cocktail but it’s just empty space with some light square tables and chairs. (Missed opportunity). Could be fabulous if they had a great breakfast, made use of the terrace, updated the gym and did something with the “spa”, or simply don’t call it a spa. Decent 3 star hotel.
