Stayed at this hotel for 1 night with my girlfriend. It was booked as a treat by my family for my recent exam pass. Fantastic deal by alpharooms and well worth the money, beautiful room on the 10th floor overlooking the sea with a massive balcony. Staff really good, we arrived early (8.15am) and asked if we could leave the bags before we could check in, the room was ready we checked in there and then which gave us a full day to use the fantastic pools and beach. When I finish at university and (hopelfully get a good job) I plan to bring my girlfriend back to the Torrequebrada for a lot longer stay.

10 days half board in a junior suite. The rooms need a lick of paint and the furniture looks like something found at the road side. The hotel suffers from "bad drain smell". The front reception looks 5* but sadly that's where it ends. I would not recommend this for a family holiday. The staff made our holiday, food was good at the Cafe Royale (dress code requires long trousers and shoes) however breakfast was poor, at the weekends the staff struggled with the influx of Spanish tourists on weekend breaks. The Gym is poor and no AC. The private beach is very rocky as you go into the water and sore on the feet. The road outside the hotel is very dangerous and the traffic lights seem to weekends only. I would recommend the underpass. We had one round of drinks in the hotel at the rear late one night, two gin and tonics and two cola's 20 Euro's. On the last day of the holiday we found you could buy newspapers from the bag shop in the hotel. My review may come across as negative but there were enough positives to make us consider going again. Views from the hotel, quite at night, good security etc.

We have been going to Benalmadena for the last 6 years, staying at Sunset Beach and Vistimar, both excellent. Booking and getting great deals through Alpha rooms. This year we went to the Torrequbrada as again we got a great deal for the only 5 star hotel in Benalmadena. And after staying there if we go back to this resort, the Torrequbrada will be the only hotel we would stay in. The hotel is on the far side of Benalmadena but there is a nice walk from the back of the hotel into main area of resort. The Marina is about a 45 min walk, but taxis are always available from the hotel at a cost of 6 to 8 euros depending where you are going. We got a lovely room with giant size bed, mini bar provided bit expensive as expected. Breakfast Buffet provided which I have to say was good not great. The staff were excellent and the hotel is very clean. An Asian Restaurant is now in the hotel which is superb and the bars and other restaurants the same. Casinio in hotel is also very popular. The main reason we would go back is for the gardens and pool area, so peacefull and secluded, sun beds and towels provided free also indoor swimming pool available. Overall excellent value for a 5 star hotel.

The staff was absolutely wonderful, helpful in every way possible. The room was comfortable with an excellent view. Our only gripe was that the breakfast did not live up to the five star rating.
Other than that, it was a great weekend break.

If your looking to stay in a Hotel that offers you all your family needs then look no further than the THE HOTEL TORREQUEBRADA in Benalmadena-Costa Spain.
Me my partner and my 4 month old son have just come home from staying here where we had great fun,relaxason and a all round fab time. This hotel offers Great food, Great people and a Great enviroment. Situated on its own privat beach and just a 5 minute walk alone to the pubic beach where u can jet sky, and ride on all the water rides u can think of. About 5mins walk to ur local super market and on a stritch of bars and resterants, which all are value for money, Night clubs are a 5mins taxi ride where u can dance the nite away. This Hotel caters for all ur family needs and LOVES the kids.. I so wish we were still there and can't wait to get back there.

The hotel was all we could wish for. We were a group of 4 golfers who needed a base for 5 days while playing some of the local courses. B&B basis was ideal as part of the holiday is going out at night and trying out some of the various restaurants in the locality. The hotel was pretty quiet when we were there (mid-March) and , apart from a small conference, there seemed no more than 50 guests staying at the time. The breakfasts were very good buffet style with plenty of choice and our rooms were very smart with Sky TV etc. Although there is very little going on outside the hotel, a 15 minute walk would get you to the shops, bars etc. Alternatively, there were always taxis outside the hotel and it was only between 5-7 € to get to the action. All in all a very good place to stay and the Alpharooms price we got was superb. £26 pppn B&B at a 5 star hotel. Great deal

We enjoyed our stay at Torrequebrada but am realistic with this review.  Hotel is 25 years old and now probably more like 4 star than 5. This is not a minus point as the hotel was not at all pretentious as some 5 star can be!  Everything was fine, however we did have noise at night from rooms either side of us. It is however soundproofed against road noise. We stayed on the 11th floor and had a fantastic view from our balcony (even though it was so hot we could not sit on it! lucky us). We did not find anything about the resorts of Benalmadena, Fuengirola or the Puerto Marina to our liking. Unless you want a blow up lilo? We did not find this disappointing however as this is the Costa del Sol and unless you are south of Puerto banus it can be very tacky. We will return, we never actually needed to leave the Hotel.  We had a very relaxing break in an immaculate, happy hotel, near to the airport and free from any hassle.  What more could you ask?

Very nice up market hotel at reasonable cost.  Facilities are excellent and the staff are friendly and efficient.  Rooms are very good with nice views over the beach and sea from the balcony.  Food is very good but dont forget to take smart clothes for the evening (no jeans or trainers).  There is also the casino for those that feel "Lady Luck" is on their side.  Unlike the tacky 'Vegas' casinos, a smart dress code exists which complements the sophisticated atmosphere.
Hotel location is good.  A short walk takes you to the main beach front area where you can walk all the way to the charming marina (about 50 minutes to 1 hour) passing bars and restaurants along the way.  Alternatively take a short taxi ride from the hotel.  Adjacent to the marina area can be found the night life for those that like loud bars and clubs.

My husband and I were amazed by the good value for money at this hotel.  The position was ideal, a quiet and peaceful location away from the centre of Benalmadena but with easy access by cheap local taxi to the Puerto Marina, Benalmadena Pueblo and Mijas.  The rooms were spacious, of excellent standard and exceptionally clean and well-maintained.  The breakfast buffet was delicious and varied and the dining room and terrace overlooked the sea. All staff we encountered were unfailingly courteous and helpful.  Most of all we enjoyed the spacious garden area, complete with Spanish fountains, adjacent to the pool where we could relax and plan our return....
