SOL Hotels in Torremolinos

Came here recently on a little mini break with my husband to grab some last minute winter sun. First of all I would like to say how impressed I was with the entrance to the hotel, super clean, modern and bright. Receptionist Ana was lovely and very helpful - we couldn’t check in our room until 3pm however this was expected prior to arriving, we were told that we could leave our luggage in the luggage room so that was a bonus! We stayed half board and had the choice of breakfast and lunch or breakfast and dinner however all inclusive seemed to be popular amongst guests too. We went for a stroll along the beachfront whilst we waited, the hotel is in an ideal position and close to everything so definitely a bonus for those who like things on their doorstep. We ended up getting back to the hotel around 2.15pm and luckily our room was ready. The room was bright, fresh and modern with gorgeous views overlooking the sea! The bathroom was really modern with a rainfall type shower and not your usual wet rooms where the whole bathroom gets drenched, it had a sliding shower door so really well thought out. There was plenty of wardrobe space in the room with plenty of hangars provided which again is a rarity so bonus points for that. Like other reviews have said there were no tea/coffee making facilities however this didn’t bother us, there was also a mini fridge in the room it wasn’t stocked up with anything which we didn’t expect but would have been nice to have a fresh bottle of water included for guests at the very least. I have seen some reviews saying the rooms are quite small - I have to agree they are small however there was more than enough space for the 2 of us, the only downside was space to put suitcases, this could prove a problem if staying for a week or longer. I have to praise the hotel on how comfortable the beds were! We slept amazingly well and the pillows were great too, it can be very difficult to find this abroad. We didn’t use any of the swimming pools just due to the amount of time we were staying however there was an indoor heated pool, lots of outdoors pools and an indoor jacuzzi (photos attached to review). There were lots of people sunbathing with ample sun beds however I am not sure whether there would be enough in peak times however maybe they get more out. Breakfast - By far the best meal in the hotel, fruit juice from a machine was not your usual watered down it was beautiful, plenty of tea and coffee machines and self serve bottles of fizz. In terms of food there were pastries, fried eggs, scrambled eggs, poached eggs, freshly made omelette, beans, tomatoes, cheeses, cold meats, bacon, sausage, selection of breads, cereal, yoghurt and fruit. I’m sure there was probably more however off the top of my head that’s definitely ample! The pastries and cakes are stunning, far too moreish and if watching your waistline try to avoid haha! Dinner- Again plenty of choice, pizza, pasta, noodles, vegetables, cottage pie, cold meats

Currently staying at the Sol principe with my partner and what a beautiful hotel & STUNNING location! Staff go above and beyond to make sure you have a good stay. One of our favourite hotels that we have stayed at. The location is beautiful, beach is literally across the road and the beach bars are beautiful. We are half board and there is such a different variety of food each night. Perfect for families, couple etc.. Thank you so much for an amazing stay so far!!

Just got back from the most amazing holiday as a family of 9 in 3 rooms the hotel staff can not do enough for you and the entertainment staff go above and beyond our 10 year old twins have not stopped.. It's central to everything and the water park and selwo marina is a must.we only got back today and are already looking at booking next year. Never have we been so sad to leave somewhere 7days is not enough thank you for memory's that will last a life time.

I would normally rate our visits 5 but unfortunately this visit I felt like standards were dropping a bit. We have stayed at all 3 hotels in the complex many times over the past few years and always found the hotel brilliant. This time we decided to stay in Don Marco for the first time and, due to it being my 60th birthday we decided to upgrade to an Xtra Room with a poolside view. First impressions of the room was positive. A couple of suggestions I would make would be a towel hanger on the balcony, and that the light in the corridor went off on a night as this did illuminate our room. My criticism is that in our 7 night stay the room was only cleaned 3 times and therefore the towels only changed 3 times. We seemed to be forgotten as we were the only room occupied on this floor. I also expected a bottle of bubbly on my birthday which I have had for the last 3 years. I felt we paid more for the room but got less. The food in the restaurant as always was very good, but again an example of standards slipping was 2 nights we had to find our own table and wait for it to be set, 2 nights we were not approached at all to order drinks, and one night somebody accidentally dropped and broke a plate. Even though this was pointed out to at least 5 members of staff it was not cleared up and left, causing a hazard near the food counter. I know these may only seems like very minor issues and we did really enjoy our stay again , but I feel I need to pint them out as I would hate standards to slip at the Sol Complex as it is somewhere we love to come to and think of it as our happy place.
