Best Hotels in El Arenal, Spain

Room ok., very dated but to sleep in and shower, it does the job. The beds are extremely hard and the pillows are not much better. Very powerful shower. Clean towels daily. Hotel is clean and nicely decorated. However what let's this place down is the food. Shockingly terrible. Not replenished for people that choose to come after 8pm, even thought the restaurant is open until 9.30pm. Came in one evening to find around 10 flies in the salad carrots. We sat down and my friend went to get some water from the juice machine and was shouted at and told no. They are only for breakfast and if we want a drink we must pay.!!!!! FOR WATER???? I have never heard anything so ridiculous. The coffee and juice machines should be available during both breakfast and dinner. But the hotel is only interested in making money by selling drinks at dinner time and so therefore it's forbidden to have some water or a coffee with your meal. The staff were rude and blatantly told us that we couldn't have water because they won't make money. The hotel is in a good location. This is my 2nd time staying here. Having previously stayed when it was an all inclusive hotel. I will not return as no human should be denied water that is essentially free. We paid to stay here, we didn't not just walk in off the street, so to be denied water is a joke. We were not asking for wine, coke, etc. WATER!!!!

Das whala!fun liegt am Hafen von El Arenal in einer der etwas ruhigeren Straßen. Das Hotelpersonal war durchweg freundlich, zuvorkommend und sprach sogar teilweise deutsch. Die Zimmer sind zwar recht klein, doch stets sauber und freundlich eingerichtet. Unser persönliches Highlight war die Dachterasse, die man Ende September fast ganz für sich alleine hat. Dort kann man prima den ganzen Tag verbringen, kann sich nach Belieben mit kühlen Getränken von der Bar oder einem kleinen Snack verwöhnen lassen. Die großzügigen Liegen und der Pool laden zum Entspannen ein und auch abends kann man dort noch einen Absacker trinken und den Tag gemütlich mit einem Blick auf den schönen Hafen ausklingen lassen. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis konnte uns auch absolut überzeugen. Danke!

We couldn’t have been happier with our hotel and where it was. It was busy but still a nice place. We had a warm welcome from reception with lots of info. Despite being early for check in our room was ready. Loved the balcony and big bed. Food was great, the cakes and yoghurt was so creamy. Managed to do as much sunbathing on the beach as shopping in the town, got best of both. This was just a great place for us, glad we did the research.

It didn't let me but I'd give this 3 and a half stars. I'll do the positives first. Stayed for 7 days. The staff were all brilliant and friendly. The food and drinks were nice, no issues with that. Cleanliness was fine. No issues with that at all. Cleaners go in rooms daily. Pool side, bar, restaurant area, reception and waiting area were all spotless and well maintained. Location is fabulous. Turn right, cross the road at the end and the beech is right there. I suggest using the one to the left of the little car park. Or if you fancy a couple mile walk, go to the other side of the area (you'll know when you see the seafront) and it's great that side. Sadly there's some negatives. 1. The pool is very small and very cold. Really badly located. It's surrounded by large buildings so gets no sunlight. A hotel located where this is, it should really be on the roof to get full benefits of the warm weather. The ocean is literally warmer. Didn't see anyone even use the pool. Bit gutted about this as it would have been nice to relax in and around the pool with the kids, but we just went to the sea instead. 2. The rooms were pretty small and there's no option for more than 3 people per room which we weren't told as we have a family of 4. So my partner and I had to split up and have a kid each despite booking a family room. Not the end of the world I know but should be specifically said on booking that we'd have to gave 2 rooms fitting 2 people. The shower we had was open as in no door or curtain and square so the shower literally had no choice but to spill onto the main bathroom floor right next to the toilet. My partners room had a sort of L shaped shower which was far bigger as there was a lot more wall to stop the water getting onto the floor. Very spacious. We just showered there all week. Lastly unless you had a balcony room, the view is just horrible. 3. The noise was ridiculous. I dont expect pure silence, but this was really bad. Very thin walls too, could hear very loudly when the next room went to the toilet for instance. Seems to be a hotel for young party goers, which is fine, but wish we had known as it isn't really suited for families. It's more of a base hotel for people who just want to go out and drink all day. 4. The lifts did not feel safe. The small one broke at least 3 times that I heard (the alarm is extremely loud). You can hear the lift scraping against something on about floor 3 which doesn't sound safe. That's it for the hotel. It isn't bad, but felt was slightly mislead when booking the rooms and very let down with the pool and too noisy for us. I'd say if you are planning to stay here, it's better to be used as a base for those out wanting to party a lot. In my youth, this would have been perfect. Now for some info on the area itself to be weary of(nothing to do with hotel) There's a heck of a lot (and I mean a lot) of people walking about all over the sea front and shop fronts trying to sell you cheap knoc

Dont let bad reviews put you off!!! After reading previous reviews we were apprehensive about going! But we were pleasantly surprised! The hotel itself is really nice, comfy well decorated and reception was really posh! Greeted with a lovely lady member of staff! The room was basic, really nice shower and the balcony was fine. Everything you needed. The only downside was the hairdryer. Definitely take your own. The pool area was lovely and it definitely has the sun hit it! Do not be put off! The sun was there all day! I caught a tan easily and there is a nice bar inside and even it own lifeguard. The breakfast was lovely, everything from pastry to cereal to fruit and fried breakfast and even different types of milk! The spa was definitely a highlight! The massage was incredible. I would definitely recommend this hotel it is so close to the harbour and beach but far enough not to hear noise! The only downside is occasional noise from rooms above but but to be expected . We went for a long weekend and for what we paid I would definitely return!

Pros...Cannot fault the hotel for cleanliness, everywhere seemed spotless. Friendly staff on duty, working long hours. I didn't mind leaving a euro deposit on the plastic beaker as when the beaker was returned the euro was returned. This system really helped all areas around the pool stay nice and clean. Makes total sense to me. Sunbeds nice and comfortable and always managed to get one on the few occasions we had a pool day. Bedroom was a perfect size, as was the bathroom. Both areas spotless and clean with comfy beds. Maid service was excellent with fresh towels daily with 3 bed linen changes during our week's holiday, although one slight issue our bedroom door was left open ajar one day. Nothing taken so no harm done. (Sure it was just an accident). Cons...The only things that let this hotel down were the main road right outside the hotel. Traffic noise constantly, and despite asking for a quiet room we were placed on the 3rd floor overlooking this road. (Maybe this was a quiet room)? Unable to sit on balcony and relax (due to road noise) which was a shame. Also, as many have already mentioned, the cockerills are horrendous. I took ear plugs but could still hear the constant noise. Also, some people need to learn a bit of respect for others and turn the door handle when closing their bedroom door late at night or early morning. It is possible to close them quietly. Came home exhausted from lack of sleep. We had to cross the busy road to get to main hotel, (where the dining room is), only a problem when it was raining heavy one morning so maybe take a brolly? Food was mainly ok, but we also ate out quite a bit to avoid the canteen feel of the dining room. Overall we had a good holiday but I'm sorry to say I wouldn't stay here again, or recommend it to my family or friends due to the road noise and cockerills.
