    shower door opens inwards and there's not to much room to get in and out comfortably...rude people banging there doors at all hours ...unfortunately I was there with a large group of male men guests who got got loud and drunk around the bar area from midday onwards not good for other guests to hear and have to listen to...

    excellent location...friendly staff....breakfast selection very good and fresh

    The lightning in the rooms were a bit dull along with the cleaner coming in to clean when not asked.

    The staff were super helpful, especially Alicia at the reception. Hotel was clean, we had a nice balcony view. There was literally no complain, was me and my friend’s first time in Marbella and we’d 100% bw back to the hotel.

    The cafeteria, and the room, nº 450, wasn't clean of dust... below chairs, the bed, a whole lot of dust. As if they've been cleaning around it...

    The room, the hotel itself, all wonderful.

    Felt a little remote from the coast & you need a car or else you have to rely on taxis. Also sometimes the staff left it up to the guests to find their way, ie heres the keys on you go.

    Excellent room, lovely pool area with great terrace and bar. Remembered a birthday and laid on Champagne which was a nice touch . Some of the staff were pleasant and friendly and catered well to the guests in general.

    We booked half-board, specially because of the food reviews and we got a bit frustrated. From our experience breakfast is ok but not amazing as it’s said. Dinner quality is low, and the food has an industrial flavor, and no salt at all. Not much choice for starters. For a 4 star hotel we were expecting a bit more quality. Far from the Marbella center and the nice beaches, but we were already aware before going. Pool closes at 8pm and it’s not allowed to swim after that time. A lot of noise during the morning from the corridors as the cleaning ladies start working, not really nice to rest after 8am. The toilet doesn’t have a brush it’s not understandable and the cleaning ladies also don’t clean it.

    Large room and nice pool area.

    That simple things like a little shop or on site kiosk that offered drinks , crisps , cakes/biscuits icecreams etc would have helped . There being no nearby shop certainly didnt help .

    We booked a superior room and in the description it said we would have a balcony. We had no balcony and asked reception about this. They said they had no rooms to assign us with a balcony. The staff member who we spoke to was rude about this. This is disappointing as we did not get what we booked

    The beds were comfortable and the hotel was clean.
