Extremely nice hotel with the friendliest staff. The quality of the restaurant was not the best. Don’t stay there for the food, but for the spa, the atmosphere and the staff.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a lovely stay at La Fonda Hotel and overall it was a really positive experience. The hotel is in a great location, very clean, and has excellent amenities throughout. We travelled with our 9-month-old baby, and all of the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating, which made a big difference to our stay. The roof terrace was fantastic, especially on sunny days, and was a real highlight for us. The only slight downside was that the pool in the hotel wasn’t heated, which would have made it even better. A special mention has to go to Ana and Pipi, who truly made our stay. Despite the language barrier, they were so warm, friendly, and helpful, always going out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and looked after. Their kindness really stood out and made our holiday even more enjoyable. We would happily stay here again and would definitely recommend it to others visiting Benalmádena Pueblo.
