Gran Hotel Costa del Sol

I stayed at Hotel Grans Costa del Sol and overall had a pleasant stay, though there are a few areas where the hotel could improve.

First of all, the reception staff were very friendly and helpful, which made check-in and any questions during the stay easy. One of the bar staff members was especially kind and made us some very nice non-alcoholic drinks, which we really appreciated.

The cleaning staff were also excellent. They cleaned the hotel and rooms every day and were always very polite and hardworking.

In terms of the hotel itself, it felt more like a 3-star hotel than a 4-star, as some areas look a bit old and could use renovation. Our room walls were slightly dirty, so refreshing some rooms would definitely improve the overall experience.

Unfortunately, the pool was closed during our stay, so we couldn’t swim and I cannot comment on the pool facilities.

The food in the restaurant was tasty, but the breakfast was quite similar every day. It would be nice if the hotel added more variety, especially more savory options, since not everyone prefers sweet food in the morning. Also, different meats were sometimes cooked in the same area. It might be better to separate them—for example, placing red meat on one station and chicken or fish on another, since not everyone eats every type of meat.

The hotel also organized singing sessions and entertainment, which we discovered by chance and really enjoyed. It would be even better if guests were informed about these activities in advance.

Overall, I would recommend this hotel for a budget-friendly stay. The sea view is beautiful, and despite a few small issues, we still enjoyed our time here.

location is amazing. if you are looking to just have a place to sleep and be in a great location then this is the place. we walk out and we are basically in the sea it’s great. we’ve had a few small issues with our room such as the heating not working, our shower being too hot or too cold not middle term and our bed lifting. These issues definitely didn’t stop us from having a great time and enjoying the delicious breakfast they offer and their pool. I recommend.

Enjoyed my stay here so much. Used the all inclusive option and fell in-love with the cocktails 🍹 variety accompanied by it. The rooms and washrooms were spacious and neat. The available Tv 📺 stations were also inclusive as I had various options to choose from for me and my kids when I wanted to just stay in from hiding from the rain 🌧️ or the sun ☀️. Also, I enjoyed my meals and the meal suggestions for the day. Available vending machine for immediate needs if you do not want to leave the hotel.

However, I do recommend that the pool be heated during winter as I and my kids were unable to enjoy the pool as suppose as it was so so cold 🥶, giving it a 4 ⭐️ for this.

After seeing a lot of negative reviews I was very sceptical about coming here but it exexceeded my expectations. The hotel is lovely although could do with a revamp as it is quite dated but that didnt make a difference to my holiday. The rooms are clean & spacious. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the pool and it's views overlooking the beach is beautiful. The beach is right outside the hotel. The hotel is within walking distance to the shops, pubs/restaurants, bus stops and town. We didn't try the food at this hotel so can't comment on that but would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

To be perfect, coffee should be included.

An iron and beach towels that didn’t have to pay the part. If there was a coffee maker in the room, it would help a lot.

I found the pillow and bed a little uncomfortable, but as I stayed a few days so it didn’t bother me too much. Other than that, everything was good.
