SOL by Meliá Torremolinos Don Pablo

People, food, facilities, location

It was a bit disappointing not to have a balcony

Great location (near the beach, big hotel area). Possible to find a free parking space outside the hotel area). Both breakfast and dinner were excellent – a rich selection and high-quality food. The rooms look good. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. We liked that it was possible after check-out (at 12 PM) to stay at the hotel area and use the opportunity to freshen up before the trip, for example, take a shower (free of charge).

Please consider guest smoking preferences when assigning rooms. For example, the guests in the rooms next to us were smoking constantly, which meant we couldn't go out onto our balcony, dry our swimwear there (it would end up smelling like smoke), or leave the balcony door open in the mornings or evenings."

I like the hotel facilities, room, very nice swimming pools. Nice breakfast. Location was very good near the beach and the sea. Easy to get everywhere. I liked the day bar where we could get drinks and some food. I like the shower and the bed was very comfy. We had a very good sleep. I like the entertainment every day. And the room view to the sea was amazing. The room with balcony and the sea view was fantastic. And we enjoyed the rest in a room with very good AC.

Slow lift and long waiting times. Fight for the sunbeds. It wasn't enough of them. Someone had to come early to book a sunbed by the pool to enjoy the day at the pool. The parking is too small.

Location is good and the hotel is spacious. Rooms were decent

Parking wasn’t great and quite expensive considering you are a guest. Housekeeping was average. Food options not the best. Check in line took a very long time would recommend staffing the check in desks with more employees to speed up the process and reduce queues
