Disappointing

We booked for 2 nights and unfortunately the hotel did not live up to our expectations. We felt like we were staying in a rest home for the elderly. No entertainment whatsoever, no lunch or evening meals so had to eat out each night and not easy finding a place unless you are driving. The bar shuts at 7 i think , so boring nothing to do unless you go out . I normally like to stay in the hotel and enjoy the experience but unfortunately not. Whilst a kettle etc; was provided this was the first hotel ive stayed in that doesn't provide coffee / tea of some sort. On the plus side the staff are lovely very friendly, the room was ok but noisy first thing as we were directly above the reception/ dining area. Sorry will not be going back again .

The reception was good staff helpful, our room was up in the lift, ok with wheelchair, lots of space in the room, only let down was the bath with no grab rails, my husband couldn't climb into it, luckily we only stayed 1 night, i did mention it at check in no shower only rooms available. Liked the idea of a mini kitchenette. A nice walk down to the restaurants, but steep walking back up, good job my husband had his mobility scooter.

Hyggeligt hotel.. men i meget lille by uden noget

Hyggeligt lille hotel beliggende lige op af togbanen sÄ det er super nemt at komme dertil. NÄr det er sagt, sÄ er selve beliggenheden super kedelig. Det er en lille bitte by uden noget som helst udover et supermarked og 3 restauranter og en grillbar. Hele omrÄdet omkring appelsintorvet (ca. 2 km. derfra) var under renovering sÄ alle restauranter i det omrÄde var lukket. De restauranter der er i nÊrheden er udmÊrkede men ikke noget sÊrligt og prisniveauet er langt over det man ser i nabobyerne, Torremolinos og Fuengirola. Til sammenligning for priser kan nÊvnes min favorit ret Grilled Sole (Grillet sÞtunge) Som kostede Euro 28 i byen men som kostede mellem 14 - 17 euro i nabobyerne. En busbillet til nabobyerne (ml. 7-10 km.) koster 0,59 Euro (med buskort som kan kÞbes i alle tobaks kiosker) og her er udvalget af restauranter langt stÞrre og vi kÞrte til en af disse byer efter 2 dage og spiste.

Bra och prisvÀer hotell

Lugnt lÀge precis bredvid en av tÄgstationerna i Benalmadena. Ligger lite utanför de vÀrsta turiststrÄken. Bra parkeringsmöjligheter. Stort fint rum och kökspentry. Stor fin balkong med hÀrlig utsikt mot havet. VÀldigt trevlig personal i receptionen. Möjlighet att Àta frukost ute eller inne. Frukosten var ok men dÄligt med grönsaker. Ligger en bit frÄn havet och ett antal höjdmeter upp.
