Had a suite - decent size… bathroom a little dated. Breakfast was excellent. The pool side service towards the end of the day was not great. The underground car park was closed - we were there off peak - so parking was not an issue but there was limited spaces nearby. Great location on waterfront.

Great location with a lovely small private beach area. The room was tired and old. The bathroom light switch didn't work well, the shower head didn't stay in place, one of the taps was loose. There was no 'service with a smile' and although any request was actioned, I always had to be requested (for instance although there was pool service for cocktails, good luck getting someone walk past and ask if you wanted another drink or take your finished glass away). We'd asked for a menu for lunch and when drinks were delivered the waiter wasn't interested in taking a food order.
Unfortunately we also went in school holidays (poor planning on our part!) But kids took over the pool as kids do, but they were loud for extended periods and it was just not I'm fitting for what I expected a 5* hotel to be.
Our last day, when it felt like less of a family clientel did seem better, with lovely breakfast by the pool, but again, unfortunately, marred again by the poor service of the wait staff.

I recently spent a week in a suite at Gran Hotel Guadalpin Banus and left with a deep appreciation for both its stunning location and the exceptional service provided by the staff. The hotel is perfectly situated right on the beachfront, just a pleasant stroll from the boutiques and marina of Puerto Banús, making it an ideal base for exploring Marbella’s vibrant surroundings.
The suite itself was spacious and comfortable, with elegant furnishings and a private terrace offering beautiful views of the Mediterranean and the pool area.
The amenities, from the plush bedding to the well-equipped kitchenette and luxurious bathroom, made for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Room service was prompt and attentive, consistently meeting expectations throughout the week.
What truly stood out was the staff’s accommodating and helpful attitude. From the front desk to housekeeping and room service, everyone went out of their way to ensure a pleasant experience. Their warmth and professionalism made a real difference and contributed greatly to the overall enjoyment of the stay.
However, it’s worth noting that during my visit in April, parts of the hotel were partially closed, including some restaurants and facilities. this did have a noticeable impact on the variety and quality of services, particularly at breakfast. I would encourage management to consider how such closures might affect guest experience, especially during peak travel periods.
Despite this, I was very pleased with the care and attention from the staff, and I left feeling well looked after. Thank you to everyone at Gran Hotel Guadalpin Banus for a memorable

It’s an incredibly nice hotel. A bit dated, but very clean and well maintained. The breakfast was also more than decent. I’d definitely stay there again next time.
