We arrived in the middle of the night after our flight had been cancelled late due to the power failure. We had no where to stay and were very desperate, whilst we had managed to book a room for the Tuesday evening with you because it was passed midnight 28th/29th the booking system wouldn’t let us book for the Monday. Your night manager couldn’t check to see if you had a room available as your system was down. He was very apologetic and told us to come back the next day. After spending the night in the airport as we had no where to go (not your fault) we returned the next morning where your night manager still on duty and your receptionist looked after us so well. They were extremely helpful in checking us in quickly and allowing entry into the room immediately so we could get some rest. Unfortunately we were so tired we didn’t get their names but we really appreciated their help and would like to say a huge thank you to them. All of your staff are very pleasant and helpful and although we were only with you for one night/day we really enjoyed our stay. Hopefully we will return under better circumstances

Nothing, you were wonderful

Our stay was fantastic. First, we were lucky, we found a parking just on the corner on the street, but also Hotel has a parcking place for 15 euros/day, so no problem, if you dont find it on the street. Cos when I was booking on the booking.com it did not say this inforamton about hotel has parking also. Then also we had an internet, on booking it does not say it has Wifi, but yes it has for free:) The receptionist a blond, kind lady we had at our check in, she was fantastic, so helpful, kind and smily. We had a room on the first floor facing small side street /not main/ and a side seaview, as I asked not to face the street if possible. It was only a little noise from the cars but almost nothing. The area around just gergous, you can reach a lot of things by walking or you can take taxi or bus also. The beach is beautiful and the surrounding the mountans amazing. Also what I loved is the check out time is 12, and you can leave your stuff in the hotel after that and still can enjoy the swimming pool or the sky bar there. There is also live music or singing in the eveing, we had nice singing in the bar in the evening, the bar staff also very nice, but we went to sleep early and we did not hear anything from the room. The restaurant staff just amazing, they are sooo helpful, fast and smily. We had dinner and breakfast. Both was just amazing. So many things you can choose from and very tasty. I am vegetarian and I left full:) The cleanliness of the room just uncredible, I travel a lot, but this hotel was one of the cleanest hotel in my life:) Just bravo to the staff! I would like to say thank you so so much, we had a great time in Benadelmadena and we will for sure come back to this hotel next time <3

Great location- just across from the beach many restaurants and shops close by. The cleanliness of the hotel and its grounds was great and cleaners cleaned rooms to high standard. Only stayed for bed and breakfast but food was nice and varied. Got toasties daily from pool bar for lunch and they were tasty and well priced. Loved the Sky Bar and the drinks served...the views were spectacular. The staff are the biggest asset however and couldn't do enough for guests. My partner and I enjoyed it so much that we have already booked to stay next July!

As a non-smoker, it was a bit annoying having people smoke around the pool....perhaps there could be a designated smoking area

Great location, superb staff, food quality great, very comfortable rooms. Been several times now. Place is basically nirvanah for pensioners and I have taken elderly relatives there before. Live entertainment just about every night, roof terrace with bar. Cannot really fault the place for a stress free break. Loads of stuff within walking distance.

Very hard to fault a place like this, the beach is across the road and the sea was generally too rough to swim. Can get very busy at meal times but even then you aren't waiting for anything

The location is brilliant, rooms lovely and clean with air con, loved the variety of food on offer and loved the fact at breakfast you dont queue for a coffee as staff bring tea or coffee in pots to the table which cuts out the waiting for next person to move before you can get a drink, Toaster worked brilliant and only needed bread going through once, there was every variety of juice available. Staff was only too happy to help they are a credit to hotel.

As this is a 4* hotel the only thing i could say lets it down was the shower, having a shower with shower head over a bath isnt what i expected, i would think just having a nice shower in a cubicle would make things nice. But that is only negative.

Premium room is very spacious, good breakfast and dinner sortiment.

Check-in should be better - reception staff was speaking between themselves, and we had to wait until they finished their conversation and turned to us. The daily cleaning schedule is the worst - the cleaning is done until 16.00, but in the heat You last outside max until 13.00 and want to have a shower before lunch, but the room is not cleaned yet. After returning from lunch, the room still isn't cleaned, and it already is 15.00-15.30.

This is the second time I booked in the hotel. I love the hotel, for the location and the beautiful view and atmosphere! It’s safe for a solo traveler ( women) . I usually book with half board! The evening there are some entertainment ( Music) It has many terraces ( beautiful) The stuff are professional, either in the restaurant, reception or the bar. The hotel receive groups, but it’s fine.

The groups or couples who booked through Jet2 Holidays, find a good deal ! As a solo traveler women, it was expensive for me during 3 days. I tried to negotiate the price a price, as I had done in November 2021, but it didn’t work. So 3 days cost me ( alone) 479€!

Like many reading this review, we have stayed in many hotels. Hotel Las Arenas has to be the best for the following reasons. First of all, the staff are professional, helpful, hardworking and engaging. And, importantly they appear to enjoy their work at the hotel. The cleanliness of the hotel is excellent. Entertainment, varied and very good. The food is outstanding with a huge variety of choice. Sky Bar is lovely with panoramic views. When we return to Benalmadena, we will not be staying anywhere else but The Las Arenas. Thank you to all the staff for making our holiday so wonderful.

There was nothing that we didn't like.

This boutique hotel is an absolute gem! The facility itself is well laid out and very comfortably furnished in the main areas and lounges. The food and drinks are excellent, and every staff member go above and beyond to make this small hotel exceptional! For this reason, many people frequently return.

The wifi was occasionally weak but this just a minor inconvenience.

Good cleaning throughout the hotel, very clean rooms. Nice and happy staff. Always access to sunbeds by the swimming pool, small pool but never crowded. Nice and pleasant sky bar. Located close to the beach and many restaurants/bars. We will definitely return to this hotel.

Good buffet, but somewhat poor variety if you have full board. The rooms are a bit responsive. A little long waiting time for the elevator at certain times.
