The property was noisy as we were on the ground floor, so we could hear noisy neighbours etc.The apartment is well located within walking distance of the bars and restaurants. The apartment is looking tired and in need of upgrading (shower door was loose etc) but the reception staff were very helpful and welcoming.

Great value
If you’re on a budget, you’ll struggle to find better value or a better location in Benalmadena. These self-contained little apartments will sleep three at a push, and was a good base for me on my own. Air conditioning was great, WiFi steady and reliable. Rooms don’t have balconies and the shower is tiny, so bear that in mind if those are deal breakers. There’s a well stocked and competitively priced shop in the lobby, and reception is 24 hours. You’re also two minutes from the main road (shops/pharmacy/bakery), five from the beach and five from Bonanza Square (food/drink). Staff are great - there was a mix-up with our booking in Hotels.com’s side, but Doramar responded to in-app queries in minutes and confirmed the booking the day before travel. It’s a party venue with a late night bar and karaoke in the basement, but I slept well on the third floor. There’s also a pool and on-site self-serve laundry facilities, though I didn’t use either.

Love this place.
Love this place, has all amenities we need, in a convenient position and even get English TV channels. Staff are great, so friendly. Just could do with a little updating of rooms, showers and kitchen units but perfectly acceptable to use. Currently installing a new lift and electronic door locks

The mattress was really good.
The room though needs a bit of maintance.
Would have been great if the room was soundproofed because you can easily hear everything that's going on in the hallway and also you can hear very clearly your next rooms neighbours.

Great value for money.
The Doramar stands in an excellent location for all amenities.
It has a pleasant bar/cafe, which serves good quality meals.
Baraoke each night from 21:30 and I have witnessed some really decent singers.
The housekeeping could be a little better, as the cleaners don't perform a daily service, but if there does happen to be anything you require, reception staff are always pleasant and helpful.
It is great value for money and intend using these apartments for the forseeable future.
The whole building is generally in a bad condition for three stars. (Furniture, doors, closets etc. we’re old and too used. For ex. shower closet leaked to the bathroom floor, sofa bed/chairs were noisy and rickety.)
The old AC wasn’t effective enough for the whole apartment of four, bedroom was too hot to sleep. This also made the whole apartment humid, so drying swimwear or towels didn’t work out.
Mini market had tiny and expensive selection (no cold drinks/ice cream etc.).
Some of the staff were very pollite.
Location very good, everything is near.

Doramar as per my standard is a 1 Star rated accommodation.
Reason: ONLY ONE AIRCON - In the pictures and description you may see that the apartment is "airconditioned" - which is only partially true. In the one bedroom apartment - there is no aircon in bedroom Only ONE SMALLEST aircon in the hall and a big window to the bedroom in the expectation that the bedroom wil get cool air from the hall :) :)
Staff is not great and not supportive at all. They think that this is a standard across the hotels to have only one aircon in the apartment.
Location is ok, lots of food options near by, some clubs and bars located in the 24 Hour Square which is walkable ( if you are interested in clubs )
Apartment is just about clean.
In my expectation - NEVER Stay here if you want a comfortable stay.
If you are looking for some beds to sleep at night with a min aircon - they this may suffice your needs.
I was saved because of the wonderful help offered by "Hotels.com" customer support team. !! Kudos to them and I shall always be grateful ! MANY MANY THANKS HOTELS.com and Expedia TEAM "
Superb help in offering me quick compensation and help in relocating to another hotel.
- Will always book through Hotels.com !

AlWays a fab stay at the Doramar , all the staff are amazing in the friendly budget hotel
No parking for the hotel, old rooms, they don t clean the room even if you stay 3 nights, they only change the towels unless you ask for and they argue it. The location of the hotel is nice.
