    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    If you like a bit of old-school glamour, look no further – Frank Sinatra and Sophia Loren used to stay here.

    This was the Costa del Sol’s first luxury hotel. Back in the Fifties, it attracted the likes of Sophia Loren and Sean Connery. These days, it still gives a nod to its past with traditional touches, like marble floors and columns, wooden decor and paisley-patterned chairs.

    The hotel’s right next to Torremolinos’ prom. It’s a five-minute walk to Benalmadena’s chic marina, and just a few minutes’ stroll to La Cariheula, the Spanish quarter known for its tapas bars.

    Just so you know this hotel does not accept stag or hen parties.

    Very nice hotel with perfect location
    17 Jul , 2019 HanneLill
    We had a junior suite on the ground floor which was perfect for our family of five. The kids loved the jacuzzi on the terrace. The hotel has a perfect location right on a nice beach with lots of shops and bars around. We stayed half board and the food was good and plentiful. Only issue I had is that the hotel staff should remove towels when people occupy sun loungers without using them for hours.
    From bad to excellent

    Unfortunately my booking had become mixed up, do when I arrived an was allocated my room, I was very disappointed, to the extent that I return to reception to see if I had been allocated a club room. I hadn't. The lady on reception worked quickly to rectify the error. From that moment onwards I have nothing but praise for the hotel. The room was excellent, the view superb and the food first class from a buffet. I will recommend and return .

    First of all I’d like to thank whoever at Medplaya gifted us our complimentary upgrade to the new junior suite for our stay, what a fantastic surprise. The rooms are huge with jacuzzi tub on the balcony, soft drinks in the fridge, tea and coffee making facilities and a bottle of wine on arrival. The exclusive lounge has an excellent coffee and juice machine, and light snacks available during the day. My only suggestion would be to place a couple of bottles of water in the room fridge during the daily room service instead of the lounge fridge as some guests show no consideration to others, taking more than their fair share, leaving none for others. This is our fifth visit in as many years to this beautiful hotel and the service has remained consistent throughout. All staff care greatly about their guests and it’s great to see the familiar faces every time we return. Thanks again for a quality stay and we’ll see you again soon.
    Relaxing break

    We recently stayed at the Pez Espada and after reading some of the comments that people had posted were a bit worried. On arrival check in was excellent, our sea view room was huge and very clean. The choice of food both at breakfast and dinner was first class, something for everyone. The staff are very professional and always had a smile even the cleaners were always pleasant whenever we saw them. The bathroom was a bit outdated but again was adequate and spotlessly clean. The position of the hotel is perfect, right on the beach and surrounded by little restaurants and bars. All in all we enjoyed our stay and are already thinking about returning next year.
    Brilliant

    Staying here at the moment. Brilliant hotel, rooms,staff,food,all excellent can't fault it at all. Be warned,if your thinking of going on a day trip to Morocco with TUI,think again. 15 hour round trip for 3 hours in Morocco all for the princely sum of 98 euros each. Not worth 9 euros.
