We have used RIU hotels several times before. As is usual with RIU this hotel holds no surprises. Clean, all staff helpful, food is usual buffet - hot and cold - but varied daily and of good quality. Rooms are of decent size with balcony/terrace and A.C. and fan. Lounging areas (2) with mattresses and parasols beside adult and kiddies... more

Just got back from four days at this hotel - the staff were very friendly but there were a few problems - we had advised that we would be arriving at 12 noon but our room was not ready on arrival. We paid extra for the safe in the room but could not use it and the floors in the... more

The service, food and accommodation was excellent and our only complaint was the ugly Burger King building they have erected between the hotel and the sea - madness. We took advice from... more

After searching the internet for a quick break a visit to the travel agent brought us to the Riu Marina in Benalmadena. It had been many years since our last visit to Benalmadena so had a few reservations regarding location. The hotel is in the marina and the location was very good and Benalmadena seemed to be a lot cleaner... more
