Reviews of Hotel La Fuente del Sol

“Staff were excellent, guests not!”

Hotel La Fuente del Sol

May 14, 2008

My wife and I spent a few days here in April. We chose this hotel because of the rave reviews of others on Trip Advisor and because it is now a member of the Relais du Silence group. I have to agree with almost all the reviews, this place is heavenly. The staff - Maria, Esther and Stefania at the front desk, Juan in the dinning room and everyone else we met were genuinely friendly, outgoing and personable. It was a real pleasure just sitting and chatting with everyone. They provided inside tips on dining, touring, what to avoid, what to see etc. They were fabulous.
The property was undergoing some construction which took away from the peace and quiet but that was truly minor compared to the rude, inconsiderate and truly annoying group of guests that arrived on our second day. Apparently they were friends of the owners and decided that this gave them the right to take over the property.
An innumerable amount of small children that redefine the term "noisy rug rats" were foisted onto the staff and other guests. Their parents spent their time drinking, smoking and totally neglecting these little ruffians who delighted in screaming expletives at each other at all hours of the day and night.
These parents would spend hours at the small bar getting louder and louder until staff would ask them to go to bed at 0300 in the morning. This meant they would then wander the hallways, half-cut, yelling at each other, laughing loudly and making absolute asses of themselves. The staff were at the end of their tether by the second night of this mob's stay.
The hotel is excellent, the staff are second to none, the kitchen is wonderful and the location is marvelous. I would highly recommend this to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat in the Spanish countryside.
My only caveat is, check your dates. If it is a Spanish long weekend or Bank holiday - confirm that the owners haven't invited their friends!

“Excellent - As always”

Hotel La Fuente del Sol

Save Review
5 of 5 stars
Malaga, Spain
Feb 20, 2008

We do a short or long break at least six times a year. La Fuente del Sol is by far one of the best hotels we ever stayed at.

The rooms, the food, the views, the service, the staff, the location, the peace and quiet, the spa, all excellent.

The first time we visited the hotel was in May 2007, we booked a standard room. January 2008 was our second time, this time we booked a suite with sunken jacuzzi and fireplace.

The restaurant is magnificent. Since our first stay, we visit it regularly, to enjoy the chef's gastronomic creations.

We'll stay there again in October. And bring friends.

“Fantastic”

Hotel La Fuente del Sol

1/1 found this review helpful

We had to stay here under difficult circumstances recently when my mother died. This place was fantastic - a real retreat. The staff couldn't have been more helpful or attentive but without being intrusive. The rooms and views were lovely and the food excellent in the evenings. We hope to go back under better circumstances soon!

“Superb”

Hotel La Fuente del Sol

Dec 30, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights, using the hotel as a base to explore the local area, including Grenada.
What a find!
The location is spectacular, and really the photographs on the website do not do it justice. Tranquility, wonderful fresh air. beautiful sunshine and breathtaking views of the mountains and valleys.
The building is immaculate inside and out. Our double room was superb with lots of luxurious touches - jacuzzi bath being one of them.
The restaurant was excellent. The chef is talented and creative, making interesting and delicious meals from locally sourced ingredients.
The service in the restaurant was second to none. In fact all the staff in the hotel were helpful and approachable while being discreet and 'in the background', stepping up when needed.
I loved the spa. Towels, slippers and robes are provided and all guests have unlimited access to a glorious indoor pool, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. As it was winter, we didn't attempt the outdoor pool!
This is without doubt one of the best hotels we have stayed in.
If you are looking for peace and relaxation in a modern, perfectly equipped and staffed hotel, where peace and tranquility is the primary focus, Hotel Fuente del Sol is the place to go.
Go now, before other people realise what a great place this is.

“Wonderful stay”

Hotel La Fuente del Sol

Nov 23, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

This is a fairly new hotel that hes been built in the mountains with fantastic views right down to the coast. Four people went to celebrate a birthday with little idea of what to expect. There are many things that go together to have made this a memorable stay. The situation is remote but not at all difficult. The hotel is ideally placed for walking and visiting Anetquera and El Torcal. It has a spa and gymnasium in addition to an outdoor pool. The only extra charge is for massage treatments. The next unexpected highlight was the restaurant. The chef produces food that matches some of the best in Spain. There was nothing that four people eating different things could fault. Rooms are large with vaulted ceilings and there is TV, DVD, bathroom with all the usual toiletries and extras. Like most Spanish hotels, there is no facility to make a hot drink in the room. Staff are excellent and very helpful. Will definately go back some time soon. I almost forgot, the hotel has six horses that can be used to explore the countryside.
