Top San Rafael Arriba Hotel Reviews

Hotel Mango

8/10 Good

"Very close to the airport, free shuttle to the airport was very handy. Early departure at 6.30am meant no breakfast - only a truly awful cup of coffee and a small individual packet of biscuits to go. This could be improved by offering a small simple breakfast to-go with a piece of fruit, bottle of water / juice and maybe a sandwich or cereal bar. The pool was clean, if a tad chilly and the bar was delightful. Overall would stay here again."
