Kind and helpful staff, if you need anything in the room they will provide it. Excellent and copious breakfast. Cheap car rental possibility at the hotel. Sound-proof and spacy room, effective air- conditioning. Clean pools, with wide space to sunbath. Location very good: near-by beach, bus stop, shops. The hotel building and furniture is relatively old, needs a major refurbish to be a 4 star hotel (in current condition it's a nice 3 star place). It´s not the best deal what they offer for city trip and other activities, they only promote the small town events (eg. At the time it was the Feria de Malaga, a one week fest, with plenty social events, bullfights with renowned toreadors, etc., and couldn't find any info about this at the hotel). Internet very poor: wifi for charge, wired internet very expensive (6euro/hour) and isn't working well. One of the maids was lazy and sloppy.

Cleanliness of the room. Location Staff are not friendly at all even though this year was our seventh year to stay there. Food was not good we only had breakfast that was not very good either. After saying all that we will stay there again next year because of the location.

I liked the hotel very much because it is very close to "the puerto" where there is a great range of excelent restaurants and as I stayed there for bussines, I got back from work rather late and then it is good to take a shower, fresh up and walk on foot to have a great diner.I Also liked the kindness at the reception-desk. Sorry to tell but for me it is necessary to have a good sleep after a bussy working day and I need a cool room to get asleep.Your system is not a good working airco-system but only a general fan-system.

Not alot really the view thats about all. Paying 12 eur a day for wifi is ridiculous in this day and age most hotels have this service free id definetely expect a 4 star hotel to have it free, rooms were very old and not that clean.

The breakfasts were very good and served right up to 10;30am and the location of the hotel in close proximity to the Puerto Marina was excellent

I found the staff very friendly and helpful. The location was excellent and I feel that this was the hotels strongest point. I felt the hotel needs modernising.

The swimming pool has a really nice atmosphere and the pool side staff are very friendly. Excellent location, not far from the shops and the marina. The food served at breakfast although there is a good mixture is not of the best standard.

Location good. Room needed updating. Childrens room had broken shower, table, writing on the wallpaper. The pool by the poolbar was small but quiet. Poor for a 4 star and breakfast wasn't good. Worst thing was the derelict view of a hotel next door. Worst view ever. Would not stay here again

Efficient and friendly staff. Location was good for the beach, restaurants, bars and the marina. Close to the main street,which was great for getting the bus into Malaga. The cleaners failed to vacuum the room during our stay.

The Hotel was in an excellent location, we couldn't fault it. Breakfast plentiful, lots of choice and lovely pot of tea(PG Tips).It ticked all the boxes for us, Ideal for a short break. Staff very helpful and accomodating especially reception allowing us to check in earlier than 2pm. The rooms could to do with modernisation or refurbishment, however how much time do you really stay in the room?
