We travelled in a group and enjoyed our stay. Beach is right across the hotel. Some rooms had renovated bathrooms, other old ones. Breakfast and dinner variety was really nice, but it was very loud atmosphere while eating, we could not have proper conversations. Staff was really nice and from the skybar it is a beautiful view. Parkingspaces nearby are difficult to get.

Fantastic

Stayed at many hotels and apartments in the area and Las Arenas was magnificent. Nice, modern reception, comfortable bar/lounge area, excellent happy hour between 1700-1800 hrs each day, superb breakfast and unbelievable rooftop bar. Would highly recommend Las Arenas.

This hotel will take some beating in Benalmadena. I have no complaints about anything here, it was all great. During our stay there was a happy hour every day from 5.00-6.00, drinks were two for the price of one. Would definitely say here again.

Great holiday

Had a great holiday at Las Arenas hotel . Hotel was vey clean and staff were excellent and helpful. Entertainment was very good. Enjoyed everything. The only fault I had was that tea and coffee in the bedroom was not replaced daily even though there was a kettle in the room.

Property seemed little dated. Rooms did not have the best sound insulation. We could hear TVs playing from the guests next to us ans above us especially when in bathroom with sounds coming in from the vents (very weird). Overall the experience was fine, balcony was missing a handle but it was fixed immediately, check in and check out process went fine. Just expected more from a 4 star hotel but for its location and our needs it worked fine.

It has a good location , beach front, you can go easily to walk and fine food restaurant around. I didn’t like my room , was not clean when I arrived , super bad smell in the room, like if they just used the bathroom , there was room hair in the toilet, in the phone and in the bed. I ask for changing my room and they told me there was not anymore room but they had because I check in expedía and they gave me the option to book more rooms . The lady was not nice.

Location was good, especially when travelling with a baby you can walk everywhere, to the shops, restaurants and most importantly the beach. Very clean and staff absolutely amazing. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable, maybe a little updating is needed in the bathrooms. The pool area was nice but unfortunately the food menu and quality was very poor. We had to go out for lunch. Finally a small but important detail the hotel lifts took forever. All in all an ok place to stay!

Spotless and spacious

We stayed for 3 nights in March. Our first impression was of a bright, spacious and spotlessly clean foyer. Upstairs was no exception and we really enjoyed our stay. We were in room 625 which had a sideway view of the sea. Huge, comfortable bed, decent size wardrobe with a safe, big bathroom with a large shower. Fridge in room too. Service was good with everyone we interacted with being really helpful and friendly. We were able to pay a bit extra for late checkout which was appreciated too. We only ate breakfast in the hotel but it was a really good selection: continental, cereals, breads, pastries, hot UK breakfast, and lots of fruit. The hotel is right across the road from the sea and about a 20min walk from the marina. Really happy with our choice and would highly recommend.

Really nice hotel, room was nice, food was decent. All the staff were lovely. It's not the quietest location next to the road but I never really noticed. I didn't book parking ahead of time so was unable to use the car park. We were on the 6th floor and the music on the roof bar was loud in our room with lots of stomping about. Again not a massive issue for me but a sensitive person might not enjoy it. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect! The only thing to complain was that the rooms were not very soundproof and on the 6th floor you could hear everything from the rooftop (eg. when someone was moving chairs and tables). Compliments to everyone from the restaurant, especially to Juan and Micky! Always very helpful, always smiling.
