Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had rooms with a jacuzzi on the balcony, which was a nice touch. The service was top-notch, with the duty manager who was very accommodating. The location was up a hill, offering stunning views but requiring some effort to reach. The dining experience included gyudon dishes, adding a unique touch. The facilities were modern and convenient, enhancing the overall stay.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with the added bonus of a jacuzzi on the balcony offering a better view. The service was top-notch, especially with the duty manager personally ensuring everything was perfect. The location, though up a hill, was ideal for reaching the Fuengirola bus station easily. However, the dining options were limited, and the price for certain services felt a bit high.
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight! The rooms had lovely showers and a hot tub on the terrace, which was a huge hit with the kids. However, the service was a bit slow at times. The location up the hill offered some breathtaking views, but it was a bit of a challenging walk. The dining experience, especially with the Mexican dishes, was outstanding. The facilities were top-notch, making our stay very enjoyable.
