We stayed at the Barcelo for 5 days at the start of July 2008. The holiday location was a last minute decision; as a result of our simply walking into a high street travel agent. The actual hotel selection followed a personal recommendation by the branch manager of the travel agents, the only information available to us was the Barcelo... more

My boyfriend and I chose this hotel for a week long break in the Marbella area at the end of summer 2006. The hotel itself is quite far from the town of Marbella. Its about 10 mins in a taxi from Marbella on one side and Puerto Banus on the other side. It is situated on a hill among a... more

So I booked the Barcelo Golf as it had a relatively high ranking on this site - 8th if i remember correctly. Maybe I've just been spoiled by other hotels that I've stayed in but I really didn't find the Barcelo Golf anything special at all. It's nice enough and has a decent pool and clean rooms but for me... more

Travelling south towards Gibraltar, take the first on the left after the Marbella Arch. Drive up through an established estate of houses and apartments and find the hotel on your right. There are views of a golf course on the way, but this course didn’t make me want my golf clubs. The hotel is more modern than the surrounding properties... more

We went to the Barcelo for a valentines special which included parking (otherwise 10€ a day) dinner/dance , free use of sauna and turkish bath and champagne in the room. On arrival we waited to get checked in for about half an hour but this was due to their being a convention on for a bank and everyone having arrived... more

My wife and I were booked into the Barcelo by "Golf in Spain" which also included a package of golf courses. We ended up staying four nights and played at three golf courses. The hotel is adjacent to the two excellent golf courses at Guadalmina, which makes it very convenient for golfers since you can walk to the clubhouse from... more

I stayed at the Barcelo Marbella Golf with a group of six friends. Having read glowing reviews of this hotel we were badly disappointed. It's fine if you are a golfer, ie out first thing in the morning and not having to use any of the hotel facilities, including the evening dinner which was a very reptitious buffet and staff... more

You do need a car when staying at this hotel as it isnt near any local amenitites. 10 minute car ride to Puerto Banus. Excellent breakfast buffet. All staff were efficient and friendly. Pretty pool area. Could do with a few more somebeds out though as there is a lot of space for them to fit more in. Would go... more
