Bizarre scene in Mijas as a car accidentally reverses through a wall and falls into a hotel
A WOMAN was injured after her Citroen C4 plunged off the road and into the patio of TRH Mijas hotel on the Costa del Sol.
A holiday couple rented a Citroen C4 rental car in Mijas Pueblo and accidentally crashed through a low wall and into the back of the TRH Hotel Mijas after confusing the pedals near the bins. The incident occurred in the town's tight one-way streets, where the rental car left Avenida de Mejico, punched through a roughly 50cm high wall, and dropped onto its side through the hotel’s rear doorway.
Firefighters worked around the wreckage while neighbours watched from above. Thankfully, no one was taking the bins out at the time, and the occupants walked away with only minor injuries. The Citroen will likely need to be lifted out of the confined space using a crane. The incident highlights the challenges that holidaymakers face when navigating Mijas Pueblo's narrow, steep, and often poorly marked streets, making it advisable to leave the car in the upper car park and walk the last stretch.
