Hotel is well run, clean and overall good. Only reason to visit reception was to get information. Not central to Benidorm but well within reach on public transport. A small great beach within a 10 minute walk with the long beach to the old town within 10 minutes. Great views overlooking the mountains. Better views if lucky enough to get a seafront view which we weren't. The food was nice enough and last night's food was really tasty. Coffee is not nice.

I thought this Hotel was lovely. No problems at all. Ana behind reception was very professional, friendly and polite. Food was plentiful and a great range of range catering for all. . The views from the cocktail bar were amazing. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely hotel. Beautiful breakfast. Pool is clean, room is okay. Not the best but will still come back here. Room is big. Good service. Good value for what we paid for. About 20 minute walk to the beach. In a quiet place but loads of shops, restaurants, supermarkets nearby. Quite far to the main old town but we love walking so it's a good exercise for us.

AVOID THIS HOTEL! WORST HOTEL TO EXIST! Staff are rude not helpful at all. I paid for all inclusive, the food is disgusting for the money you pay. The drinks are NOT included in the all inclusive, so you have to pay separately. In the reception they tell you that if you upgrade £14 to a premium all inclusive you will get all drinks you want for 24hrs which is a lie. We upgraded and still had to pay for cocktails!!!!! Bar staff are extremely rude, even got told “ I don’t care what you want” and some bar staff don’t even speak English. Do not come to this hotel as you will be disappointed.

There are so many positives about this hotel but without a doubt their one strength is their staff - they were singularly amazing. They immediately made us feel at home - friendly, helpful and good fun. Well done to all of them but a special mention to Camila and Begonia. As always with these sort of reviews, if you're the kind of person who is polite, appreciative of people's hard work and treat them with respect, you'll love the staff here. The food is really good. Great variety, good salads, some cracking dishes and you're never far away from a good paella! We were here during Halloween and I have to say they went out on a limb here and really took care of the kids that were in the hotel with a massive trick or treat round of the hotel and a cool little homemade terror tunnel. Downside? Well, yes there was one. Our room was a little tired - 0501 in the smaller tower. We had a faulty shower, a dodgy cistern and some open cracks in the wall - it just wasn't what we have been used to from this hotel. We ended up being moved which took a couple of days and that took its toll a little. That being said, we came away having had a really good week. The staff in the hotel very much made it so a big thanks to them.

Flies on food not covered up! Lift number 2 had fresh blood on its wall for 3 days until I told reception...so they're not being cleaned every day. Only 1 chair on the balcony...got another 3days later after complaining twice daily! Not enough cups at breakfast.. people walking round looking and staff not very interested. On the other hand... Reception staff were very helpful and polite. The main area of the hotel looks lovely with all the greenery. Lifts were all working as far as I know. Pool is large but area not big enough for all the sunbeds.

Lisa Marsden

We came for a friends birthday 11 ladies. The hotel was absolutely beautiful, clean, friendly staff, great terrace bar ! Pool is beautiful too and no problems with getting a sun bed. The area itself is great - far enough from the strip so not to hear the partying but close enough to walk or a short taxi ride to the night life! The night life is brilliant. Look, it’s not luxoury but it’s certainly not bad at all it’s so much fun ! We were so worried about pick pockets and mugging and dodgy people in the clubs but saw none of that. Honestly had the best time !!

James Withers

Reception is very nice, and the service was good. Sofa's very grubby. The rooms are in need of updating and worn, but the size was ok, and they were quite clean. Air con poor Sounds like needs a service. Vid attached for the sound Restaurant food was quite good and reasonably selection but not enough for me to eat there 5 night in a row. Pool area quality A 3.5 star hotel. 4 star if the rooms were updated

I love to go to Hotel melia benidorm. Very lovely hotel. Very spacious. Amazing pool area that looks beautiful all lit up at night. Amazing views from the rooms which have a very spacious balcony. The hotel has very nice facilities. I didn't use the restaurant this time round, but it can be very busy. I loved going into the cafe bar at night with my family. They have a lovely group of servers in there who are definitely an asset to the hotel: Fernando, Jose, Lydia, and the other lovely girl who was serving who we unfortunately didn't catch her name but they are all so friendly and make it a very friendly environment for any patrons coming into the bar. People from all over the world frequent this hotel, which adds to the appeal.

Mark Nelson

Stayed here earlier this month for four nights. Arrived at midnight and despite there being 4 members of staff on Reception and only a small amount of people checking in, it was a nightmare! Never have I ever known a slower check in process and I'm still unsure as to why it took so long?! We were on the 16th floor so the view was great - rooms were okay - definitely not representative of a four star! Rooms were cleaned every day we were there which was really good. We were bed and breakfast but only had breakfast the one time as the amount of flies I noticed on the food that wasn't covered up was ridiculous and put me right off from eating there so we had breakfast out the following days. Hotel is in a good location as it's away from all of the noise but it's close enough to walk into should that be your preference. Lounge area in reception with all of the sofa's in is very tired - the state of some (if not all) absolutely warrants them being binned and replaced! Wouldn't stay here again if we did go back to Benidorm as there are much better hotels with the same star rating that look much better!

Henry Carlton

This is our second time staying here and I have to say it's a great hotel to bring the family, our grandchildren love the pools and the food the hotel provide. It's not far from the airport by taxi. You can get the hotel free bus into the town and there's a train station nearby that also takes you into town. The staff are incredibly helpful from checking in to Imad and Valentina on the restaurant front of house duties. All the restaurant staff are very helpful and the food is varied. We go all inclusive as it's easier... in fact we've booked for next year. Family rooms are great with views over the pools and sea or mountains. Very clean, housekeeping is very clean.

The hotel is located very far from the beach and the walk is difficult due to the expressway. Although there are hotel buses, there are so many guests that not everyone can fit. The meals in the restaurant are good and there is a large selection. The pool is quite pleasant. The service in the hotel is indifferent. During our stay, we had an incident. Six people from our group got stuck in the elevator, for 10 minutes no one helped us or opened the door. The lady who received the alarm in the elevator asked us for the postal code and street. Zero professionalism. When we ran out of air, I decided to forcefully open the elevator. It worked. After reporting it twice verbally and three times to the hotel address, no one answered us and the service was indifferent to our problems (two ladies had to use medical help). The elevator was not closed after this incident! I believe that this situation threatens the health and life of tourists and it should be reported to the police. Be careful with the elevators in this hotel, because it can end tragically.

Carol Caldwell

Hotel is dated in places - our room in particular Our room was also very basically furnished. Also although plenty loungers, again , a lot were very dated, torn in places. Great selection of food at all meals and plentiful. Good pool areas but the main large pool does not have signs showing the depth at the deep end and it is very deep. Entertainment wasn't great. The hotel has a free bus service to the beach. The beach is a good 30 min walk downhill. All the staff were lovely, very helpful.

Jeff Kilgannon

We had a lovely 5 night stay here at the start of October. We were really impressed with everything. Rooms were big and balcony had a view over the pools. 3 pools in total. Pool bar was good with self serve beer and soft drinks. Location is a bit back from the front but complimentary bus is available. It is a 10 mini walk from the train station which is 3 stops from Málaga airport. Food is buffet style and a bit repetitive but is of good quality and always something there to your liking. we would recommend 100%.

Carol Pillans

Loved this place, but did not like the bathroom with no window. The staff are very helpful, especially Imad in the restaurant and bar. Entertainment is amazing, especially the Disney sing-a-long. The food has lots of choices and the snack bar is especially good for children. Suitable for disabled. . Overall an amazing holiday for young and old

The rooms, the hotel view, and the exterior scenery are all stunning. However, the food was disappointing and barely edible. From the reviews, it's clear that many guests have complained about the poor food quality, and it seems the management is not addressing these issues. If the hotel continues with this approach, it might drop from a 4-star to a 3- or even 2-star rating. Based on our experience, we believe this resort is at most a 3-star and are quite disappointed. The staff were friendly, smiling, and pleasant. We purchased an all-inclusive package, but were surprised to find that we still had to pay for certain drinks, ice cream, snacks, and some non-alcoholic beverages. Additionally, a swim cap is required to use the indoor pool, which is an extra cost not covered by the all-inclusive package. We expected that with an all-inclusive plan, such amenities would be included so that guests could enjoy their stay without additional expenses. The resort may be suitable for families with young children (ages 1 to 8/9), but if you are traveling without kids or with older children, it may not be the best choice. We expected more from this resort and are very disappointed. Even though we are still here, we won’t be returning and cannot recommend it.

Michael Oduba

By far the worst food ever had at an all inclusive. To say how big the hotel is the choice of food and quality of food I wouldn't feed my dog. Lower your expectations if you're coming for quality. The desserts are all good but the mains are very poor. I imagine prison food nit being this bad. Rooms are reasonable size and the veranda had alot of good space. The hotel is well over due a revamp and bringing up to recent times. The pool areas are all good but they sell inflatables and you can't even use them in the kids pool. You have to go over the road to the water park if u want to use a inflatable. The all inclusive bar is OK but the cocktails all being pre made and put in a jug a pina colada is more like warm pineapple syrup. Not alot of choice on the cocktails either.

Krystian Pietrzyk

We was there for 5 nights in Polynesia. First opening door of the room we notice there was hole in the wardrobe in bedroom and bed was dancing when you was trying to lay down, another minus bed for couple was made from 2 separate beds which was horrible to sleep … Half of the staff was ok, specially people on the restaurant was lovely, Reception people, problem with communication due to very low knowledge of English. We arrive before 11 pm and we cannot expect any food available for us with 2.5 year old boy, only “snack bar” was open where 90% of things was drinks and beer. Food was very good at restaurant and staff there was lovely. Big minus for parents which comes with child age close to 3 y/o, there is no attractions for kids in this age, only after 9pm… Soft play not accepting kids under 3y/o but they charging you for 2.5 years old kid like for adult. Localisation of the resort is not the great due to walking distance far with kid to the center, you can only use public transport or taxi where public transport cost you €4 and taxi 11/13 to the center, trans station around 45 min walk form the hotel to get easily to Malaga. I can say food good, rooms can be better and service of the reception staff can be much better also they should change offer for kids under 3 to charge less or offer more for kids in this age. If I will be back there ? I don’t think so.

Dragon Born

The interior design on this place is amazing, there is a indoor waterfall, the resort is a bit of a walk from anywhere but that's half the fun of exploring and the hotel puts on a coach down to the entrace free of charge, the food is OK but was included with room so no complaints, we went off season so was very peaceful still near 30 degrees in December, we had a travel cot set up in our room upon arrive which is good as most hotels charge extra for this, the staff were all very friendly and most speak good English and happy to help me practice my espanol with them. We left our bags with them after checking out on the last day as pur flight was in the evening so we didn't have to spend the last day walking around with out bags all day. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Sheikh Uddin

Great hotel and really good value for money. The only downside was you had to pay to use the indoor pool as they say it's part of their spa experience which was a downer. Never the less we did use the spa and it was really good. Just wish they included it in the price you pay.

Linda Currie

A fantastic hotel. Our room was perfect with the most spectacular view. All staff we interacted with were really friendly and helpful. The girl who worked on reception during our week was lovely and worked long hours but was always smiling and pleasant. The food wasn't the best so we chose to eat out. But that didn't bother us we would just change our board basis next time. Hotel Alay gets A****** stars from us.

steve wilson

Really nice hotel and friendly staff, great location, food reasonable Always something to satisfy. Drinks reasonable and pool bar food really nice and reasonably priced. One thing that would improve your evening meal would be a coffee in the restaurant,the coffee and tea machines are switched off!!!!!! Night time entertainment, zero in reality...

Sue Randall

Fantastic beach side location and so close to all bars and restaurants. We had room 459 which had a great view and a lovely big balcony. Lovely breakfast and dining area with efficient service. Definitely recommend

AlmightyBruce11

Excellent hotel, we stayed for a week ,everything is clean, tidy and quiet. Balcony with a Marina/Sea view is a must. Breakfast was very good lots of choice, all freshly made. Location is brilliant with the beaches, restaurants, shops all within a few minutes walk away. We'll definitely be back 👌

keith

Overall great stay , room was a bit small and we had couple small issues which were sorted quickly. General service was good receptionist on checkout could have offered a smile. Breakfast was good , we had one evening meal again good. Location was great , beach, shops, bars etc on your doorstep

Edward Agius

Very long check in process Asked to sign a doc re Data Protection but the doc was all in Spanish with no English translation Checked in at 6pm and receptionist had to go and check if the room was ready. No porter Rooms are not 5 star level No tea/coffee making facilities in room. In a 5 star hotel this is a given One elevator out of order for 3 days Breakfast is good although not a large number of items. Spa very nice and organised. Outdoor pool very nice, quiet and relaxed Nice gardens

Carole Crudgington

This is a large, clean, stylish and modern hotel, but is lacking in the personal touches customers would expect, with this star rating. The weather the second week in May was unseasonably cool, and the hotel was cold. It was often difficult to find staff for service in the bars, especially around the pool areas. It lacks atmosphere and friendliness.

Lodge Taiho

Nice hotel, but it surprised me that a five-star hotel has no complimentary water, coffee or tea??? We even have to “borrow” the water cooker! The comforting points are personnel: great staff at reception and restaurant! The buffet breakfast and dinner are at average level... not to compare with other five-star hotel we’ve stayed!

Culinary Connoisseur

One of the best experiences in Spain. Incredible service by Bernhard (10 star), he really cared to make sure we are happy I thought he was the manager from how hospitable. Hotel is not bad (building is old and they have tried to modernize it, rooms and building a 3 star but the breakfast makes up for everything. Especially when you are on a long drive ahead. Pool area is amazing almost like a Vegas style beach with lots of space and cabanas. I gave this place a 5 star review because the price of the night stay of 68 euros wouldn't even cover the price of the breakfast in most places. So the value is amazing. Would highly recommend it as a 5 day escape from everything and anything.

Anna Young

We stayed in this hotel 3 nights, beautiful hotel and surroundings. Rooms were very clean and up to a high standard, staff were very friendly and helpful, spoke very good English as well. Hotel is up on the hill so it was a bit of an issue going there and back to town/beach but we got used to it, car would be a good option there. It was about 10 minute walk to the beach and promenade. The pool near the hotel was very clean and big enough. Excellent place to stay.

Sharon Hedges

The room and balcony were spacious and clean. Plenty of cupboard space for clothing etc. Clean towels and beds made daily (over our 5 days stay) Beds were comfy. The hotel and pool area are very clean. Plenty of sun loungers, but you do have to be quick to get the ones near the parasols (this happens at most hotels!) We didn't find the walk up/down the hill a problem. Hot or cold choice for breakfast, with fresh fruit and a good selection of bread, cheese, hams, pastries etc. Good location for supermarkets, eateries and bars. On the whole I think we made the best choice when booking this hotel. The grounds are so much nicer than others that we walked past and the sun shines on the pool all afternoon. The lifts are a tad slow (the only negative thing). All staff were polite, friendly and helpful.

Sue Curzon

Stayed in the attached apartments, which were very basic & certainly not 4 star like the hotel is rated. There seemed to be a leaking pipe (water dripping from kitchen area ceiling) which was reported but nobody came to assess or deal with it. We paid for a panoramic view with a glass balcony & got a concrete balcony. The panoramic view was lovely, but could only be seen if we were standing. There was no control or action in respect of the poor behaviour of other residents, despite it being reported, which included throwing things off the balconies, spitting over the edges onto other balconies, smoking in areas they shouldn't be & very excessive noise. The small pool attached to the apartments was neglected somewhat. We were able to use the main hotel pool, but it would have been nice to be able to use ours. Communication was poor & some of the staff were quite rude. There was also a €200 deposit which wasn't included in the information. Definitely wouldn't stay there again.

natasha russell

Friendly front desk staff, reception and pool area clean. Rooms tiny air con doesn't work bathroom could use a deep clean. We did know before going it was a 20 mins walk to the main strip however it wasn't manageable the hill was to steep so had to rely on taxis. Not expensive though

theresa small

Beautiful hotel. Absolutely spotless, very obliging staff nothing a problem. Food was lovely. Hotel a bit out but free bus laid on to bring you up and down to beach. Downside it stopped at 8.30pm would still recommend a stay.

Antonia Hallal

Food - excellent range. Nice and tasty. Location - free bus regular to the beach/ centre. Brilliant service. Even so is about a ten minute walk if you miss it. So not bad. But is hilly. Staff - friendly and helpful. Entertainment- regular and decent. Rooms- nice size. Cleaners come daily but sometimes had to ask for floor to be swept. But they did if asked. Hotel says no big groups when the weekend come there were lots of groups. Stags/ hens. Due to there behaviour lilos were not allowed in pool ashame for the children there. As soon as weekday came these groups had gone home. Overall good value for money.
