Ανακαλύψτε τη διαμονή σας σε Torre del Mar

Went here for an overnight stay, having eaten here many times. Everything was excellent from the welcome on reception, the room which was clean and very comfortable. It was my birthday so staff brought a beautifully presented place of fresh fruit to our room. As ever the restaurant was tranquil and the food delicious being served this time by Alberto who is always very attentive without being intrusive. When it came to nightcap he offered to bring to room. Breakfast served in the sunny and warm terrace by welcoming and helpful waiter. Couldn´t be more pleased with experience. We are lucky enough to live nearby so it we look forward to an overnight stay again in the near future. The price was also extremely competitive and certainly good value for money.

We arrived at night as a family of four in October 2023 half term. As we arrived in the room the lights tripped immediately and put the room in darkness. We went back to Reception, who came up to our room and reset the electronic box trip switch. We stayed for 6 nights and the electricity continuously tripped throughout our stay, sometimes within 15 mins of the last tripping, and only with the lights on (no devices charging or hair drier on). The beds were very hard and uncomfortable, but Reception provided a duvet to sleep on after the first night. The bathroom was a dated brown marble, very small and leaked from the shower doors. The shower itself was powerful though. The balcony was very small with two rusting air-con units taking up any space. The corridor to the room had a large section of plaster removed showing blue mould The breakfast was basic, a selection of breads, danishes, ham, cheese, scrambled egg and bacon. However, after 6 nights stay we would have preferred some variation, fresh fruit and a replacement toaster is needed (the current one is so old it took countless times to feed your bread through to get your bread brown!). The location of this hotel is in a Spanish residential area, and too far out of the tourist resort of Torrox Costa. Very few people spoke English, even hotel staff. There was a bus stop a minute’s walk from the hotel but buses were unreliable and infrequent, this could have been to the time of year though. Across the road from the Santa Rosa Hotel is another hotel which is full of immigrant male, Nigerian men, who loitered around the roads and the beach, which could be especially unnerving at night time. There were only a few bars/restaurants near the hotel which were mainly filled with Spanish locals. However, MAO bar on the beach was s saviour and Plays bar was very pleasant too, with a children’s play park next door. We generally called a taxi most evenings to Torrox Costa which was full of tourist restaurants (Magon was very good), promenade and beach with umbrellas/sun beds to hire. The local town of Nerja, a 20/25 minute bus ride away was well worth a visit, with lots of shops and restaurants and the breathtaking Balcony of Europe. The staff at the Hotel Santa Rose were helpful and the cleanliness was excellent. A redeeming feature of this hotel is how well the rooms are cleaned everyday. Credit to the cleaning staff. Plus bathroom towels are changed daily. Another positive is it’s location on the beach. However, there are no umbrellas or sunbeds to hire on the beach, and the sand is a dirty grey. The hotel provides modern sun loungers in there astroturf grounds, and a small pool too but unfortunately the pool bar was shut in October, so there was no opportunity to get any refreshments, unless you went up to the bar in Reception. The bar in Reception was pleasant in the evenings, but very quiet, some background music would be welcomed, so that everyone could not overhear your con
