Sierra Blanca Resort Spa

Found this hotel to be very stylish and with very nice facilities (although the spa was closed). The room was very nice with lots of modern facilities and breakfast was more than adequate. My biggest and only gripe was the lack of staff! The receptionist doubled up as bar staff and kitchen help. I found this a little frustrating when trying to get something as simple as a drink whilst a queue of people are trying to check in. There wasn’t even any sign of a duty manager or someone else who could help either at reception or at the pool bar.

I would say this hotel is more geared towards adults only over families with children . The property is located within a very quiet part of Marbella - away from the hustle and bustle and consequently makes for a very tranquil and relaxing stay. The pool is a particular feature of the outdoor area with comfortable sunloungers surrounding it. No loud music blaring out which is a nice change! The hotel does provide towels for the pool should you need them. To get into the golden mile part of Marbella, you are looking at a 10/15 mini car journey. We booked a bolt taxi both ways which cost us about 30 euros return. There a few niggles stopping this hotel from achieving 5 stars. When we arrived, the lady on reception was new to the job that day and seemed to be struggling on her own dealing with people checking in/ checking out and doing bar service in the outdoor pool area. She checked us in, gave us our room key and our room still hadn’t been made up from the people before. We left our cases in the room anyway and disappeared off the pool for a couple of hours only to return and find the champagne we had put in the fridge to have been removed by house keeping. We ordered lunch outside and some drinks from the bar tender only to find out it was his first day too and he wasn’t sure where everything was. I understand everyone has a first day at a new employment but to have more than one new person starting on one day and to have no one that has experience nearby is a big fault in my opinion. When my husband went to return our pool towels the young lad behind the desk was preoccupied with his iPhone and needed to be interrupted to. Get his attention. A mixed review but all in all a good stay.

This is an affordable hotel of a great value in the middle of expensive Marbella residential and resort neighborhood. Sparkling clean, new, and comfortable rooms, sizeable free parking, great breakfast included, lots of extra services, nice staff. Very content. Warning: coffee is in the lobby from 8am only ))

A very wonderful hotel! In real life it looks way better then on pictures. The breakfast’s were very tasty. The territory of the hotel was well-groomed and clean, friendly and responsive staff. There is a pool. Everything’s done with good taste and style. To sleep in the hotel room is a big pleasure, no excess sounds, the bed is very comfortable and quite big. Theres also a restaurant opening soon. I will surely visit this hotel again and I highly recommend it.
