SOL Hotels in Torremolinos

Loved it here. First off, it’s a 1970s built hotel, there have been lots of improvements but there are still some things straight from the 70s, and that’s ok by me. It doesn’t make it tired, just adds character. The food was lovely, our room on the 4th floor had an amazing view and was a good size (plenty of hanging/storage space. No kettle, no problem, we took our own and tea, coffee etc, there is a great little fridge. BBC1 and ITV 1 for news etc. Three things to note: there are average queues at the bars, the staff work very hard but there aren’t many of them so queues form. It is the same at dinner, they are so busy clearing and laying tables it’s hard to get someone’s attention. It didn’t bother us, but if you don’t like this, not the place for you. The lifts are busy, as we expected, we managed and had a good laugh with people waiting for them. There is nothing the hotel could do about it, nobody’s fault. The hot food is not hot but warm, it didn’t spoil our experience, we loved the food. However, this is one thing mentioned a lot and I think is easy solvable, either new Bain Marie’s or turn them up. We had room 1412 and it was perfect. All staff were friendly, worked really hard and kept everything running cleanly and well. Thankyou to you all. Loved the evening entertainment, good quality and enjoyable. Tip: if you go to the beach as we did, the sun beds opposite the hotel were lovely and the old boy and young man who look after them were so friendly and polite €6 each per day, with little table and ashtray if required. You can use the Los Coralas bar on the beaches toilets. As for the actual bar, staff really awful and try to rip people off, see its own trip reviews and we experienced it, avoid if you can. Would return to this hotel.

On arrival (23rd December, for eleven nights) we were surprised to see the adjacent, larger hotel Sol Don Pablo closed for refurbishments. On many occasions the sound of pneumatic drills and other equipment reverberated around the complex of the three hotels; the Pablo, Pedro and Marco. It would have been nice to have been informed by our holiday provider, ”Love Holidays”, that this was the case ! We had booked a poolside room in the Don Pedro and were shown room #2030. This we thought was tiny for the considerable amount of money we'd paid for half board. Fortunately, the concierge, was superb and allowed us to upgrade to a larger family room #2025, for no extra cost. We found the food available was good, particularly the breakfast. By accident we discovered that breakfast was served in two locations; the chaotic main restaurant and the more sedate main bar . We obviously kept this fact a ”secret” ! It was our second visit to the hotel (having been in February 2024), and we'd probably return on a half board basis. Regards Richard Freer and Dawn Johnson

Currently staying at the Sol principe with my partner and what a beautiful hotel & STUNNING location! Staff go above and beyond to make sure you have a good stay. One of our favourite hotels that we have stayed at. The location is beautiful, beach is literally across the road and the beach bars are beautiful. We are half board and there is such a different variety of food each night. Perfect for families, couple etc.. Thank you so much for an amazing stay so far!!

Just got back from the most amazing holiday as a family of 9 in 3 rooms the hotel staff can not do enough for you and the entertainment staff go above and beyond our 10 year old twins have not stopped.. It's central to everything and the water park and selwo marina is a must.we only got back today and are already looking at booking next year. Never have we been so sad to leave somewhere 7days is not enough thank you for memory's that will last a life time.

We spent a week here for Christmas on an all-inclusive basis, staying in a superior sea view room. We've had a fabulous time. The Don Marco has been refurbished to an excellent standard, and our room was spacious, quiet, and with a fabulous view from the balcony. The meals were also first class. A huge range of dishes on offer. The staff were all keen to be of service and friendly. We even got to sit on Santa's knee! A lovely experience, we shall come again.
