This newly renovated hotel looked lovely, a lot of thought had gone into texture and lighting and it was impressive when we arrived. The staff were friendly and efficient, the aircon wasn't cooling my room down but after I spoke with the receptionist someone came over and fixed it quickly. The rooms are large with comfy beds and a a lovely bathroom. Cleaners always kept the rooms clean each day with the option of changing towels and bedsheets.

We loved that the hotel had a range of guests, we would have breakfast around 9.30-10.30 and would see family's with young children and also older couples and friends. I think the young crowd who had been up late came to breakfast after us, we only saw one group of guys at the pool one day but they weren't noisy or disruptive.

The pool was a lovely size where you could swim laps, it wasn't that busy either time we went in the pool (afternoon time) and we always could find a sun lounger. One evening they had live music there which was lovely, the hotel should advertise this more so people are more aware, maybe a tv in the lobby with a slideshow of stuff that goes on in the hotel.

Breakfast was lovely too, presented beautifully and had a good range of foods. Also fresh orange juice was a real treat every morning!

Only negative is the sound of the road, many people still sat outside for breakfast, maybe they live near busy roads usually so it doesn't bother them. The road is a fast almost like a motorway right outside the hotel - its not the hotels fault and I would still stay again. But if you hate the sound of a road you could hear it loudly at the pool and if you like to sit on the balcony. That's the only thing the hotel is lacking is a view from the balcony and the sound. They have done a great job of sound proofing the rooms, you can't hear the road at all through the glass so it doesn't disrupt sleep at all, especially with people revving their sports cars. When you're in the pool your body gets used to the noise and tunes it out mostly but it is there. I personally was fine with it but my mum was more sensitive to that kind of noise and was disappointed she couldn't relax on the balcony as well. I would still stay in this hotel despite the road noise as they have done such a lovely job with everything else.

I would also recommend the Italian restaurant in the hotel - best food we had all holiday. And the ice cream there I wish I had tried on the first day it was the best in Puerto Banus.

Dear Hannah, We appreciate that you took the time to share your experience with us. We are delighted to hear that you appreciated our newly renovated hotel, the friendly and efficient staff, and the comfortable and clean rooms. It's great to know that you enjoyed our breakfast selection, especially the fresh orange juice, and that you found our Italian restaurant to be the best in Puerto Banús. We hope that the next time you visit us, it will already be installed and you will be able to enjoy the exterior with less noise nuisance. We appreciate your kind words about the pool area and the live music, and we will take your suggestion to advertise our events more prominently. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the road noise during your stay. While we have made efforts to soundproof our rooms, we understand that some guests may still be sensitive to the noise. With regards to outdoors, with the renovation of the Hotel, the installation of an acoustic screen is planned to reduce some of the noise from the road, which for administrative reasons is being delayed. The location of the Hotel is exceptional, easily accessible and very central, close to the beaches and the Port and the best shops and restaurants, we are sorry that the road is close by. We are glad that it did not disrupt your sleep and that you were able to enjoy your time at the pool. We hope that the overall positive aspects of your stay outweighed this concern. We look forward to the pleasure of welcoming you back on future occasions. Best regards, Guest Experience Manager

During the Easter School break, we spent a weekday at Occidental Puero Banus, staying in a deluxe suite on a half-board basis. The hotel's location is very convenient, just a few minutes' walk from the marine promenade and harbor. Although the underground parking was handy, it came at an additional cost of 25 euros per night.

The room itself was spacious with a balcony, featuring a king-size bed and a sofa bed. However, it's important to note that there wasn't a separate area for the second bed; it was all in one room, albeit larger than the standard rooms. The "kitchenet" consisted of just a sink and a kettle, suitable only for making tea and coffee.

The bathroom was large, though it only had a shower, which may not suit everyone's preferences. On the bright side, the food offered at the hotel was excellent, catering to even the pickiest eaters.

Unfortunately, Occidental Puero Banus may not be the best choice for families with children. There were no entertainment options for kids, and there wasn't even a designated area for them to play, let alone a playground. Additionally, the swimming pools had odd opening hours from 11 am to 6 pm, and the water was quite cold, so we didn't use them.

While we didn't have any major complaints about housekeeping, there was a notable issue towards the end of our stay. After returning from a day out, we found that our room hadn't been cleaned, and there were no fresh towels. Despite calling the front desk three times, it took over an hour for someone to bring us towels so we could shower and head to dinner.

Overall, our experience at Occidental Puero Banus was mixed. While the location, room size, and food were highlights, the lack of family-friendly amenities and the housekeeping issue left something to be desired

Dear Petra, Thank you for sharing your review. We are truly glad to hear that you appreciated the convenience of our location, just a short stroll from the scenic marine promenade and bustling harbor. It is also delightful to know that the size of our rooms and the quality of food met your expectations, offering a comfortable stay and delightful dining experiences. However, we regret that certain aspects did not fully satisfy your family's needs. We take note of your comments regarding the family-friendly amenities and will consider how we can improve our offerings for our younger guests. The swimming pool hours and temperature are designed with guest comfort and safety in mind, and we are sorry to hear that these did not enhance your stay. Regarding the housekeeping service, please accept our sincere apologies for the delay you experienced. This is certainly not indicative of the high standards we strive to maintain. We also understand your concern about the additional cost for underground parking, and we aim to provide clear information on all our services and their respective costs to ensure transparency for our guests. We look forward to the pleasure of welcoming you back on future occasions. Best regards, Guest Experience Manager

Pleasantly surprised with this hotel. We knew when booking it had just had a big refurb, so wasn't sure what it was going to be like, but it was beautiful, cleanliness was great and so spacious. Even down to the smell, every time we left/entered the lobby it was the nicest smell, you could just tell they had thought about every little detail.

We got a good price as out of season and the pool wasn't in action (which didn't bother us).

Aircon didn't work for us / or it was user error - but again, wasn't too bothered as in Feb we only wanted in on in the night.

The staff were lovely and friendly, we were able to check in early. They even bought us up a complimentary bottle of wine and chocolates up the room as we were celebrating 10 year anniversary, so that was really nice of them.

Breakfast buffet was included, we ate there 1 morning, lots of good choice, seating area was nice and clean, very busy - think this was down to the fact there was a football club staying there.

overall really really pleased with our stay here, would stay here again and recommend.

All staff are very friendly and welcoming. The hotel has recently been refurbished to a high standard. The rooms are large, beds are very comfortable and the bathroom has 2 sinks and a large walk in shower which was very powerful. The breakfast has a great selection of hot and cold food, juices, fruit etc. I asked for an omelette each morning which was served to my table. We were half board and in the evening we were given a 3 course menu to choose from. This would have been fine however on 3 of our 7 day stay the menu was the exact same. On another 2 nights again a menu was repeated. So out of 7 nights the menu only changed 3 times. I understand it was not busy in the evenings and not enough people to put out a buffet but I feel the menu should have been different each evening. I spoke on 2 occasions to the reception staff who agreed and said they would speak to someone and get back to me but that never happened.
The hotel is very central to the marina and the shops.

Don’t stay at this hotel if you want good service. We arrived as a group of 9 girls, the woman we dealt with on reception was awful, terrible customer service and had no idea what she was doing. Check in took well over 90 minutes and we were told our rooms weren’t ready and to come back at 2pm, which we did. We were the told we needed to check in again and that our rooms still weren’t ready and to top it off all of the rooms were miles away even though I had emailed them twice to request we were close together. As you can imagine we were furious by this point after spending another 60 minutes at the desk. The lady we dealt with was so unhelpful and rude, it made the whole experience 10 times worse. The breakfast was freezing cold every morning, the queue for the outside bar is a joke and again rude staff and the drinks and food are so expensive €25 for hot dog and chips. The pool is absolutely filthy, black marks round the side, all sorts floating in it, you would probably catch a disease if you spend too long in there. You would think the pool would be clean given the life guard shouts and blows her whistle if you go within a meter of the pool with a PLASTIC cup! The hotel and grounds are gorgeous, as are the rooms, they have everything you need and are spacious and cleaned daily however the road is so loud on an evening. Perfect location and within walking distance to everything.

Dear Miss Demi W., Thank you for sharing your feedback after your recent stay. We are glad to hear that you found our hotel and its facilities beautiful and that you appreciated the spacious and well-equipped rooms. Our location is perfect for exploring Puerto Banus and the surrounding area. However, we are sorry to hear about the problems you experienced during your stay. We apologize for the inconvenience caused during the check-in process and the unsatisfactory customer service you received. We continually strive to meet the requests of all our guests, even with a full hotel. It is easier for us and more comfortable for the client to accommodate the whole group together, subject to availability. It helps a lot if we know the composition of the group, if they come under the same booking reference. We are sorry that one of the rooms in your group was not next to the other three, as according our records, not all of them had same reference number. We also understand your concerns about the pool and assure you that maintaining cleanliness is a priority for us. We appreciate you understand that it is our responsibility to our customers, to enforce the rules in the pool, not only not to consume glass in the vicinity of the pool to avoid accidents, but also do not consume at the edge of the pool to avoid spilling drinks in the water. Finally, we apologize if you consider the prices at our pool bar to be expensive; our goal is to provide a balance between quality and affordability for our guests. We hope you will return for an improved experience in the future. Kind regards, Guest Experience Manager

Going on our past experiences this is a ‘good’ hotel that could be far, far better.
On checking in to the hotel room we encountered three issues, that even though were addressed promptly should have been picked up prior to our arrival as part of a basic room check.
The hotel’s guests were mainly golfing groups and stag and hen parties. This meant that the hotel was quiet during the day around the pool area with the golfers out on the course and the other groups recovering from the night before. All the groups we encountered were good natured and never disturbed the young families that were enjoying the sun and facilities around the pool area.
In my opinion there is little to attract children at this hotel, the pool area, which is gated does not open until 11am, so there’s no chance of an early morning swim. During our stay we only came across one form of entertainment and that was around the pool on Thursday and Friday between 5 - 7pm. where a good singer and guitarist performed.

As there appeared to be few guests whose package included evening meals the hotel is very quiet in the evenings.

The rooms are large and characterless as there are only plain walls, no pictures or bright colours . There is coffee / tea making facilities and for some reason an extractor fan, 4 cupboards which are all empty and a drawer which also has nothing in???
The air conditioning is ‘not fit for purpose’ as the rooms were hot during the evening even in May.

As stated in other reviews there is a busy dual carriageway directly outside the rear of the hotel so it’s not pleasant to spend anytime on the balcony.

In summary, a good location if you want to visit Puerto Banus and have a b & b option, also very good for access to the local golf courses.
Personally, I wouldn’t recommend for families or older couples, like ourselves!!

Dear Mike, Thank you for your review. We regret to hear about the issues you encountered upon check-in and assure you that our team is dedicated to preparing rooms to the highest standards for our guests' comfort and satisfaction. We are sorry that the solutions provided during the stay were not satisfactory. We note your concern regarding the suitability of our hotel for children and families, and we strive to provide a pleasant environment for all our guests throughout their stay. Your feedback on the room decor and air conditioning has been taken into consideration, and we continuously work on enhancing our guest experience. Moreover, the tranquility you experienced due to the nature of other guests during your stay is typically appreciated, though we apologize if this aspect did not meet your expectations. We understand that the proximity to the dual carriageway may not appeal to all our guests, and we recommend requesting a room on the opposite side for a future visit. On a positive note, we are pleased that you found our rooms to be spacious and that the coffee and tea facilities added to your comfort. It is also gratifying to know that our prime location and proximity to renowned golf courses were highlights of your stay. Our aim is to offer an excellent base for exploring Puerto Banús and enjoying the local attractions. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Best regards, Guest Experience Manager

This refurbished hotel is very good value and for a short stay you might think that it deserves higher ratings than it has. A longer stay however reveals the short comings-traffic noise! Yes the patio doors offer great sound insulation but with them open it was noisy-and we were on the "quiet side"! The hotel is adjacent to the busy A7 dual carriageway. In summer the pool area is right alongside the busy road, though there is a high wall and screening.That said it is also within easy walking distance of all of the amenities that Puerto Banus has to offer plus the excellent local bus service is close by.
The lobby and restaurant areas of the hotel are very stylishly furnished. There is no "bar" as such though drinks service is offered from one of the seating areas. Beds are very comfortable, room sofas less so! The kitchenette in our superior room had a fridge, kettle and sink but nothing further.
The staff are excellent, efficient friendly and good at their jobs. Would I stay in this hotel again?probably yes, would we stay in Puerto Banus again? almost certainly no. The hotel would be ideal for golfers with a car who travelled out each day but wanted stylish local evening dining .Less than ideal for older couples wanting a peaceful winter sunshine break.

Hotel located next to a busy motorway. Too noisy to sit out on balcony. Swimming pool is just 15 metres from this road although you couldn't tell this from the photo taken of the swimming pool .If you want somewhere quiet to stay avoid this hotel.
Good choice of food for breakfast.
Standard of cleaning of the rooms varied from good to poor, depending on who cleaned the room.
Bed very comfortable but cheap foam pillows. No blankets provided.

The hotel offers the perfect combination of location, facilities and friendliness of the staff. The room (facing the front) was very quiet, incredibly large and very well equipped. Everything is within easy walking distance and the surrounding area offers a great variety (beach, restaurants, golf courses, shops, etc.). The friendliness of the staff is outstanding, so the hotel definitely deserves five stars in this regard. The free offer of a room to change and shower on the day of departure is particularly noteworthy. The only negative points: the very poorly equipped gym and the high parking fees (not just in the hotel, but in the area in general). An absolutely fantastic stay that won't be my last.

My experience was great at breakfast, items labelled and the server bought me a gluten free selection of bread, cakes, each morning - and by the second day i didn't even have to ask for this when she saw me. (Dec 2023) Didn't get to experience dinner but next time we go i hope it's the same.
