Excellent Service
28 March 2007
We came here for a 4 night break and were very pleased with the standard of accommodation. The Riu is situated in a lovely spot, very close to the beach, shops and Marina. The staff were extremely helpful and professional and could not do enough to help. They either enjoy their work or are highly trained to give that impression. I travelled in a mixed age group, from 19-70+, and although the clientele is predominantly older, we all enjoyed our stay. Rooms are of a good standard and very clean. Meals plentiful, and on the whole a good variety. Drinks not particulary expensive for a hotel. Entertainment geared to the older generation, but we weren't expecting anything different. All in all, a great hotel, and would use it again.

Review of 'Riu Marina Benalmadena'
19 January 2007
Excellent hotel, nice rooms and very clean.
The hotel caters for the older generation but has not got a lot for children to do.
The entertainment is not great, but adequate if you want to spend a few hours in the bar.
The location is great for the marina area and 5 mins to the 24hr square for the younger generation.
Taxi cost from malaga is 20 euro.

Review of 'Riu Marina Benalmadena'
18 January 2007
This hotel is in a excellent location right next to the marina, I would say that in high season it may get a little noisy with the bars across the road. The hotel itself is wonderful ,clean and all you would expect from the riu group. The rooms are spacious with mini bar, air con and ceiling fan. The hotel food is excellent and the staff very polite and helpful.

An excellent break
10 December 2006
We have just had a 2 day break at this hotel and found the staff to be very efficient, friendly and helpful.The hotel is within 2 minutes of the marina.The food was very good with an excellant buffet with a very large variety.At night the cabaret in the bar was very professional.Although the weather was sunny ,it was not weather for sunbathing but the pool area was very nice with plenty of sunbeds and the pool was heated.The bedrooms were a good size but ours looked out over the back of the hotel ,so it would be better to ask for one overlooking the pool.

Review of 'RIU MARINA BENALMADENA'
02 May 2006
From the moment of our arrival to our departure we found the hotel staff to be friendly, helpful and professional. The food was plentiful , varied and healthy (except the sweet courses!!). Our room was kept tidy and clean by what seemed an army of maids. The evening entertainment was quite classy without being snobby. The hotel itself is splendidly located both for local travel and travel further afield. Yes, there is a certain amount of noise from all the nearby eating and entertainment places and probably this would be more noticeable in the summer months----over the winter period it was not a problem. We would definitely stay there again.

Review of 'RIU MARINA BENALMADENA'
27 September 2005
September 2005, New hotel only open 3 month. Bedroom plenty of space balcony, air con, ceiling fan. Staff very helpful and friendly. Restaurant two sittings, use any table for breakfast and designated table for dinner. Fantastic selection of food at all sittings. Only downside with the hotel, near all the bars and night clubs which on certain nights can be rather noisy.
Central location near Marina for either promenades.
