Proamar Hotel

my partner and myself have just returned home from our holiday.10/06/2008. torre del mar is a very nice resort to go to, but beware of teh transfers cost, from malaga airport to hotel was 69 euros comming home was a little cheaper as we asked around the english bars and got a price for 50 euros. the promar spa hotel was very nice but the food was not 4 star we had half board, every day was chips chips chips no other potatoes also chichen which was tough as old boots.if you stay at the promar i would strongly advise you not to book h/board, eat out there is plenty of good bars and resterants have a nice holiday. grahame and joan.

I have stayed at the Proamar before -this time I didn't have time to use the spa, sadly. This hotel is really excellent value - the rooms are lovely and it is easy to reach, and park at. The breakfast was not quite the quality I recall from last year - but plentiful and varied. The coffee could be better!The reception were as helpful as they could be with an adaptor problem we had. Very good food served late in the vicinity. No complaints.

We have just returned from a week at the Proamar, being hoteliers, our only chance for a break is in January. The hotel was lovely, very clean, in a very good spot at the end of the seafront. There was unfortunately some noise from a pile driver being used some 3 or 4 hundred yards away where they are building several new hotels, but then it could have been worse, we could have been staying at the campsite much nearer to it !!!! The staff were brilliant, couldln't fault them. The only criticism. . . .as someone else has said, on the nights when it was waitress service and not buffet, the food left a lot to be desired !!! However, if I'm allowed to tell you on here, we found a wonderful Italianrestaurant, just a stones throw away from the hotel where we ate the most fantastic food on three occasions ! highly recommended. (Italia restaurante and pizzeria, Ave. Tore` tore`) turn left out of hotel and cross over at the end and next left. To summarise, we would return, it was cheap to book the hotel through alpha and still affordable to eat out when you want. Happy holidays and happy eating !!!

If you are on a diet you can still come to this Hotel!The extensive buffet includes some diet foods. We saw people who, far from dieting,  must have several stomachs inside their bodies as they returned many times to refill their plates. And no wonder, there is a huge range of delicious foods at breakfast and dinner. Sometimes the containers [always being flapped open by guests] do not keep the food piping hot, but kitchen staff quickly refill with fresh supplies.

Otherwise, the Hotel is in an ideal position near the lovely, wide and level promenade; it's immaculate, shiny, bright and comfortable. Our west facing room had a side sea view and sunshine until evening. Rooms on the east side have a pool view, but no afternoon sun. However there's a sunny roof terrace complete with sunbeds.The staff are friendly and efficient, but not obtrusive.  

A previous reviewer mentioned the bar, which is part of the large reception area. We did not find this detracted from the Hotel, in fact it gave us the chance to people-watch!

This was a last minute, spur of the moment booking, with amazingly good value prices and excellent efficient service from Alpharooms. We'll certainly be returning to the Proamar!

What a great hotel!

Situated at one end of the long promenade, it is easy to park, and although the outlook from the balconies inland is not special, they look out towards the sea as well and get the sun from midday right until sunset- almost new table and chairs to sit on and enjoy the lovely Spanish weather.

The third floor is non-smoking and where we stayed.

Very friendly staff, very clean, bedrooms newly furnished with extremely comfortable beds and helpful little things like a fridge for your water (or wine!), stylish furnishings- even the lifts are a pleasure to be in!, seconds to the beach, bars, and some of the best restaurants in Torre  del Mar. The reception staff are pleased to speak English and help with any queries.

Is there more? Yes! Alpharooms somehow have managed to get rates that are below local BandB prices, and this great hotel is a bargain. Don't tell anybody, the prices might go up!

Worth every one of its 4 stars, this hotel is a must for people who want style, friendly staff, good food and every comfort. Congratulations to them.

We had a terrific stay at the Vincci Resort Proamar in February 2006. We found the staff welcoming and friendly to the extreme. The room was clean and very well presented with all the facilities you would require for either an overnight stay or a week’s holiday.
The breakfast provided was excellent with a choice from cooked or continental with a buffet table covering every taste imaginable, all the breakfast staff were very attentive keeping our table clear and coffee/tea re-fills aplenty.
We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to all our friends and look forward to staying there again.
Thank you all the Alpharooms staff who assisted in this reservation which was a late and last minute booking for us.

Hotel is in a very quiet position with sea views and only 50m to beach. Although billed as 4* it is really only a 3*. Rooms are comfortable and kept reasonably clean. Nice balcony but only two plastic chairs and small plastic table.
Bathrooms are fine with lashings of hot water all day and night.
Breakfast buffet is fine with loads of choice and is open till 11 so a large late breakfast served as brunch!
Staff helpful and reception staff spoke good English.
Would stay again and great value via Alpharooms.
