The hotel was clean. comfortable and the food was good. However it's a good 20-30
minute walk from the town centre and is on a hill, so no good for kids and the elderly.
There is a shuttle bus that runs every 30 minutes, not sure about now. This service
starts at 9.00 a.m and ends at 5.00, so you will need a cab if you want to go out after
this time. The rooms are more than adequate and the restaurant has a good selection
of food throughout the day. I went in December and it was quiet there, which suited me,
but can get very busy during the summer months. Overall a good hotel and one to put
on your shortlist if you are based in Marbella.

The Hotel was absoloutly gorgous, it was a really good stay and the Brittania conference which was held there was absoloutly brilliant. The staff were lovley as well. Micheal who worked at the kids club was excellent. i would go there again defenetly.

When yo first pull up to the hotel the first thing you notice is that the hotel was built in the late fifties early sixties(Its not decrepid but a little drab on the outside). Inside is generally a bit dated but very clean and my god is it big, massive entrance lobby huge hall ways and their is so much of it that alot of it seems unused. The rooms themselves(mine anyway) are great, hairdryer, telly, mini bar good big bed, on the ball house keeping and a big balcony and decent enough decor(all very clean). The pool area is the main attraction as its very exotic and with 2 huge pools and stacks of loungers and a pool bar. I did not use the sporting facilities(but from a glance they seemed to be their and fully the functioning). The cost of eating and drinking at the hotel if your not all inclusive is Marbella expensive and not reccommended(though bed & breakfast is ok). The beach at Atalaya Park is rubbish, small dirty and i'd rather lay on a bed of nails. All in all the Don Miguel is a dated hotel which is still functioning well, as it is in need of a facelift i would reccommend that any body going should only do so on a bed & breakfast basis as it is alot cheaper and you get to eat out in Marbella which is ace......Maybe until the hotel does the required renovation it should be domed to the realms of efficient yet cheap bargain holiday's !

Where to begin... The hotel is dirty with holes in the walls, the food was absolutely disgusting, the service was shaky at best, and our concerns were never appropriately addressed. We booked a double and were given twin beds (for me and my husband). Were told it would be addressed - seven hours later we opted to pay for an upgade to a suite rather than wait longer to go to sleep. All inclusive - four restuarants (only one open and was a buffet), shopping center (never opened for three days), four pools (indoor open, but very small - the children's pool was brown and opaque), needed to shuttle 15 km away to participate in golf and water activities (only ran at certain times of the day), and the other activities were each only offered once a week for an hour at a time. To top it off we ended up covered with bug bites from the bed bugs. Absolutely repulsive and we couldn't wait to leave.
I feel like we were robbed of our time and money during our three days at this "resort".
