Ohtels Campo De Gibraltar

10/10 Excellent
"Great value hotel, comfy bed. We had half board and the food was good, but could be busy, especially when a party of 50 flamenco visitors arrived. Perfect for trips to Gibraltar and make sure you go into La Linea. Lovely (small) pool area, with good priced drinks and snacks. Staff were lovely. Would stay again."
