Mixed bag
Quite a mixed bag with this hotel.
Good position for bars & restaurants and short walk from train station.
Reception area and receptionist very welcoming. Arrived early & able to check in. Breakfast was great.
Bedroom was a decent size, does need updating, balcony very small, quite pointless!
Bathroom very small, not practical. Great shower.
Roof bar was lovely.
Biggest let down was pool area, pool was small and limited space for sunbeds, which were crammed in, music very loud!
Lovely hotel and highly recommend
Nice hotel, very pleasant staff with easy check in and out. Easy taxi ride from the airport (about 17-20 euros) or you can get the train direct from the airport to Torremolinos station which is a 2 minute walk to the hotel and costs about 2 euros. We opted for a taxi due to the hot weather as figured during our trip the C1 trainline is very busy and gets very full going between Malaga and Fuengirola, not ideal with luggage although only a short journey and they run every 7 mins or so. Our room was spacious compared to many hotels, very comfortable beds and the rooms were cleaned daily. The balcony was very small but we used it often to try and cool down in the midday heat so it wasn't uncomfortable and the air conditioning helped which does pull onto the balcony if leaving the patio door slightly open. We are not pool users but we went a couple of times to the pool & bar area. Very friendly staff, clean and lots of choices for drinks and food if wanted. We booked breakfast only and were not disappointed, there were plenty of choices from cooked breakfasts, continental, fruit, cold meats/cheeses and many other options. We only ate once for an evening dinner without booking and paid an extra 44 euros (£33) for us both which was very nice and lots of choice. There are plenty of bars, shops and restaurants nearby on the walk down to the beach which takes about 10-15 minutes downhill plus and the option to get the lift back up. Plenty of small supermarkets nearby also to get waters/snacks etc and there is a good working fridge in the room to keep beers and waters cold. Reviews I read about the noise before going, it was no noisier than any hotel anywhere, we slept well and it was not an issue for us and suggest people who want zero noise, you can find full lists of certified properties directly on the Quiet Hotel Rooms Search Directory. All in all, a very good hotel, the cleaning staff are lovely and I suggest leaving them a good tip as they work very hard all day.

Week break in central Torremolinos
What a lovely hotel with lovely friendly staff. We stayed for a week bed & breakfast last week and found the hotel a great base for bars and restaurants and bus stops. Room - Everything we needed, cleaned every single day without fail, without being requested which was lovely thankyou. Breakfast had something for everyone and a lovely much needed morning coffee or 3 😁 Very safe and welcoming, would return in a heartbeat thankyou

Good hotel
We stayed here for a week. Have been here before about 10yrs ago. It has been taken over. We were bed and breakfast. The room was nice and clean. We had a refrigerator. A great supply of coffee and tea. The breakfast was nice but basic. Half the time the egg guy made the eggs and would disappear. So rubby eggs left under heat lamp. Coffee was nice and so was the fresh juice. Plenty of nice breads and pastry. Pool was small but nice. Plenty of sun beds. Bar had most of the same drinks from the pool bar to the sky bar. The sky bar was lovely. Great views at night. The staff were very nice and friendly. Nice hotel.

Pleasant hotel
First time in Torremolinos and stayed for 3 nights in this hotel. Nice modern decor in the rooms and bathroom, bed very comfortable and air conditioning worked well. Only downside was the smell of cannabis from the next balcony.
Hotel is ideally located in the centre of town, very close to the train station and bars. We preferred the area along the promenade which was a 15 min walk away, but that’s just personal choice. Bus stop for the marina in benalmedena right outside the hotel and only 1 € 60.
Pool area was nice, no issues getting a sunlounger.
For me, the food really let this hotel down both in terms of quality and choice. Only stayed for dinner the one evening - that was definitely enough! Breakfast just very basic.
In my opinion the hotel is a decent 3 star and not a 4 star but apart from the good, we really enjoyed our stay!
