Sol By Melia Malaga Guadalmar Hotel

Good view from the window.

Very bad room noise insulation

We are staying on an accommodation-only basis, so that's what I can appreciate. best thing is the location, it's in a very quiet urbanization and beach is on the first line of the beach. location is excellent if you go with children. hotel has modern facilities, facade a little old but the rooms are very good. On almost all floors you have vending machines for soft drinks and snacks, on the reception floor you have one with some medicines and supplies that can be very useful. It has a heated swimming pool and a gym. We went there the last weekend in May and outdoor pool was already open, was a pleasant surprise. staff is very attentive. Ah, if you don't stay for breakfast at the hotel, I recommend that you go out to a bar 50 meters from the hotel on Calle Rogelio Oliva, it's called "Las Ninas", they make a great breakfast and treat you great. If you go out to eat outside the hotel, right at the exit of the hotel to the beach there is a chiringuito bar called "chiringuito servando" and I know how to eat very well and price is affordable. We will be back and I have recommended it to my contacts.

The elevators are a little slow.

The Superior Twin Room with Frontal Sea View was really nice. Huge balcony with an amazing view of the beach made it perfect. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Only downside was that they didn't refresh my bed-laundry during my 5-night stay, a bit odd. But the overall space and comfort were pretty solid.

closeness to the beach, attention of the staff and tranquility of the area. quality/price ratio is great, because for an IT it is very complete. pool is very quiet and thanks to the sun the water was not too cold. It had a lot of boiling area in the pool with sunbeds and parasols. cleaning of the rooms was very good, although one day it was done around 14. 30. In general a very good hotel to rest and disconnect.

There is little variety of products for allergens. restaurant's metre simply told us that since we knew what was giving us trouble, not to eat it. At lunch and dinner time there were no lactose free products and variety of desserts or lactose free meals was nil. There was only lactose free milk in the morning at breakfast. rest of the day nothing. At snack time there were only sweets, smoothies or juices, so the variety was also quite reduced.

Smooth check in and late check out. Spotless, practical rooms with kettle, a balcony plus good views, handy position. The breakfasts as for food...

Excellent location on the beach before flying out of the Malaga airport, and 5 min walking distance to Playa de Guadalmar. And adjacent to airport and city centre. Beautifully maintained and functional room with fridge and savoury breakfast.

Our clean, bright, well appointed room on the seventh floor overlooking the Mediterraneo was a plus which we tremendously enjoyed and appreciated. The garden was well maintained and offered a friendly, relaxing space. In addition, the lobby and lounge area were inviting and of a high quality as was staff. The breakfast was exceptional and offered an extensive array of choices. The location adjacent to airport and close to Malaga made this a prime location. On our return to Canada each year in the future, we intend to stay at your hotel. Dave and Doreen Canada

We found trying to find English channels on the television confusing and we were not able to do it. Internet service, in a hotel of such high quality, should be wifi in the rooms and free. We would have really appreciated the ability to have tapas in the bar rather than having to drive out for snacks after our late afternoon arrival.

The balcony offered fine views of the sea. Breakfast was really good, with fresh bread rolls and a vast selection. Interactions with some staff felt a bit cold at times, while the room overlooked an uninspiring car park, dampening the overall aesthetic. While the pool area was enjoyable, occasional towel shortages were inconvenient.

The buffet dinner offered a delightful variety, and the view from our balcony was stunning at sunset. However, the smoke from neighboring balconies marred our outdoor experience.

The best thing about the hotel was the location...Now mind you, if you are looking for a nightlife, you will be out of luck. There was really not too much around the hotel. There were a few eating establishments and that was it. We were not looking for a nightlife just a place to relax and that is what it was.

The rooms were a little outdated and the hotel staff (reception) were not that easy to talk to.

Spacious and very comfortable rooms overlooking the sea. Not the most glamourous part of the Costa del Sol, but conveniently close to the airport and reasonably priced. Recommended.

Nothing to complain about.

Beautiful room with seaview, good public areas and pool and gym facilities. Easy to find and park. Very convenient for airport (and off-airport rental car return). Good breakfast with many choices.

Poor lunch facilities - only the bar was open with a rather odd menu.

location, food, space, staff all great

Excellent feel, great breakfast, good location for airport travel

The excellent buffet breakfast with fresh ground coffee machines. Location for airport and sea excellent.

The evening restaurant buffet
