The hotel is ideally located just off the main seafront, providing easy access to the main beaches of Torremolinos.

The service was exceptional with friendly staff both at the reception desk and in the dining areas. The hotel's dining options cater to all tastes with many delicious choices, although the pancake platter stood out as a favorite.
