Terrible customer service in numerous areas such as reception and dining by many staff members. An excessively long wait for the room to be prepared and guests who arrived after us were serviced ahead of us. Certain waiters didn't even provide the special menus we were entitled to due to the level of resources we paid for for.

It was OK. Service is not very attentive. The staff is very selective at who they are pleasant with.

Well above my expectation. Has to be one of the nicest hotels in Marbell. Excellent location and service was second to none. Highly recommended. Not cheap but worth the money !

The information on the web site regarding different rooms are not accurate. We reserved a room with City View (important to have open view) and what they offered us was a room with wall view about 15 ft of an old and ugly building. When we explained that we expected a city view and they said rudely that “This what we mean by City View”. We were very tired after driving for many hours and the front staff not very welcoming and telling us that you can cancel if you like. Totally unexpected from a five star hotel. The Concierge staff NOT helpful at all and really not experienced to be a concierge staff. Polite but NOT helpful at all.

Beautiful hotel close to both the Passeo and to Orange square. The staff are very attentive and the hotel is spotless. The sunbeds are very comfortable around a lovely pool. Breakfast is stunning as well

We had a leak in our room dropping water on our floor from the room upstairs. It took one hour and a half for our bags to get to our room after we checked in. You have to go from pool to pool to find towels. Then you have to find your lounge chairs, open heavy umbrellas yourself and position them yourself without assistance. It can take 30 minutes, especially at the upstairs pool to have someone come to take your drink order. Then you wait….

The property is beautiful, very convenient (very close to the Old Town). The breakfast buffet was very good with lots of options to choose from. I just wish that the property would provide some entertainment in the evening other than singers singing quietly. It is very quiet in the evening so you will need to leave the property if you want to have a little more lively evening. I am not young but it was even too quiet for me. Also, the pool closes very early in the evening…I didn’t understand why because there are 3 pools on site and the Adult Only pool was far from the bedrooms windows so noise would not have been a issue. Such a shame.

Perfect from the moment we arrived until the moment we left! Great friendly staff, a beautiful hotel with attention to detail—truly the benchmark for how a hotel should be run!

This is an incredible property, with the best staff I encountered on the whole trip. Highly recommend booking the ‘selected suites’. It allows access to a lounge with unlimited drinks and snacks, as well as a visit to the hydrotherapy spa daily. The suite itself was perfect. Comfortable bed, luxurious bathroom, and amazing views. Breakfast was terrific as well. 10/10

Nicely renovated and overall felt clean and comfortable. Many aspects of the service were excellent but we had to call multiple times to ask for a power adapter which never arrived. We also issues with our request to assist in connecting casting which was not working. The temperature of the shower also fluctuated significantly which was frustrating. Overall we enjoyed our stay as the breakfast was great and pool deck had lots of chairs and wonderful access to the walkway.
