TRH Mijas

We very much enjoyed our mini break to Mijas! Flew from East Mids. We got the train (€2) from Malaga airport to Malaga-Maria as we wanted to do the open top bus tour (€25pp), then back on the train in Malaga past the airport, to Fuengerola….. then an Über from Fuengerola train station to the hotel (€12). As we went to Malaga for the day straight off the train, & put our luggage in the “Stow Your Bags” facility around 3 mins walk from the Malaga-Maria train station. It cost €7 for 6hrs. The hotel was super friendly, clean & extremely well positioned. We even got a free upgrade & free tennis. Views from the rooms, breakfast room & bar are just incredible. Breakfast had so so much choice, including, most importantly, lactose free/almond milk & decaf options. We didn’t have dinner here as there were so so many different options around the town. Beach towel rent €15 then you get €14 back. Tennis rackets & balls €10. Late 2pm checkout €10 So cheap to eat & drink in the bars & restaurants. Spoil yourself at Restaurant Meguiñez. All staff were really friendly & chatty. Don’t miss out on the towns sights, but please don’t rent a donkey or horse….. We did the hike up the mountain, of which we did the blue & yellow route. It’s quite slippy as there has a lot of sandy parts, so wear decent shoes with deep tread. We were loosing our footing on the way down. Only negatives…. Two single beds, not a double & hairdryer not great. Fuengerola really wasn’t for us, we took the bus (stop right outside the hotel) for the afternoon, but found safety in the El Puerto Sky Bar with incredible views & a bottle of wine! Go to the Bio Park if anything.

Hotel was clean. Staff really friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast. Beautiful location easy walk to the square with great restaurants. Bus stop nearby with easy access to surrounding area and beach.

Need to monitor the the sun bed reserving round the pool. There is a notice asking people not to reserve beds with their towels but this doesn’t seem to be enough, on our last day at least half of the beds had towels in with no people in sight.

This is our third time at this lovely traditional-style Andalucian Hotel tucked in the hills of Mijas Pueblo. The reason we keep returning comes down to the spectacular view over the Costa Del Sol, the warm friendly staff, and the location. We have always used the hotel as a base in order to explore the Provence of Malaga, and the city museums roughly 25 min in a car depending on traffic. 20 mins away in the opposite direction you can drive to Cala de Mijas, which has a wonderful coastline to explore by foot. We love Mijas Pueblo, there is an air of mysticism about it. Nature walks and Artisan stores what more can you ask for? There are local Buses from Mijas Pueblo to Fenguerolla and Malaga all information is readily available at the local Tourist office in Central Square. What a treat, escaping the cold of the Uk for a week and extending our stay within the hotel for another week as we watched the changes in the season which can only be described as a dramatic landscape of hills and ocean under a forever changing sky. In good weather, it's the perfect location for mountain bikers, hill walkers, equestrian lovers (stables within 20 minutes drive), and explorers who wish to escape colder climates to be inspired and refreshed. You could come here on your own read a book, write and switch off. The atmosphere is created by the international community that passes through on their travels and the staff that keep it warm and cozy.

Central location in beautiful Mijas. Very warm welcome on arrival and all staff were extremely hard working and friendly. They always had a smile and did their upmost to ensure we were well catered for. We were upgraded to a suite which was lovely, with a large lounge, bedroom and bathroom with double basin, bath and walk in shower. The room also had a small balcony overlooking the tennis courts. The breakfast choices of several types of fresh bread, cooked meats, cheese, cereal, yoghurts, jam, pastries and doughnuts were excellent. We enjoyed a quick swim in the lovely outdoor pool, a bit cold so early in the year, but staff told us there are plans to install solar heating. The poolside bar area and the lounge bar were both lovely.

The cooked food at breakfast and evening dinner could be better. Perhaps a little less choice but better quality? The towels were clean and soft but beginning to look a little shabby. But this did not detract from our enjoyment of our stay and our greatest regret is that we couldn't stay longer! Hopefully on our next visit we will have enough time to enjoy a spa treatment or two.

Beautiful location in Mijas. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, special mention for Ignazios at reception who was very kind and works extremely hard. The food was lovely, good choice at breakfast and lunch at the pool restaurant/bar was perfect also. Will definitely be back.

The hotel has old-world charm, which we loved but there are a few things that need updating, eg, showers, loose paving, locks on poolside loos. Overall, though, the gardens are beautifully kept, and none of the above would prevent us from returning.

this is a very large hotel build on the side of the rock face , situated on edge of town with spectacular views, good swimming pool and lounge area. room was decent size, bathroom needs a bit updating and better towels. very good buffet breakfast was included in price. did not try restaurant as there are many places to eat in the town. secure garage parking although there is a charge of 10€ per day.. with nowhere else to park nearby it should be included

the construction is obviously mainly concrete, therefore with multi levels there is a lot of sound travel. this is a hotel used by many tour operators, coach loads of holiday makers .so not quiet.

The location, breakfast was a good variety and all nice. The pool was a bonus, others complain about it being dated, I see history, and it gives personality to the hole place, I loved the decor, however there is a part of the hotel that is renovated and has that feeling of new industrial hotel. The hotel is huge. Dinner was quite average, still ok but I'd recommend dinner in one of the many amazing restaurants in the village. Bed was comfortable, a/C could be a bit noisy but did not bother us.

Cocktails were does that you buy already done and you just add ice and some soda. I'd suggest running away from them, and the hotel should invest in real cocktails.

The breakfast was excellent. The hotel was spacious and well looked after.

Sadly the bedroom carpets were very dirty and stained. The bedroom was very plain and a disappointment, especially compared to the rest of the hotel. Also the lighting was very poor, arriving after dark, I could hardly unpack. I placed the standard lamp on the luggage rack each evening to give a bit more light! I paid for the upgrade in order to get the tea making facilities. Very unusually, after the very mean supply of 2 tea bags and 2 milk portions were used it wasn't replaced. We were there for 4 nights.

The views were spectacular, the location perfect, just away from the centre of town. Beautiful olde-worlde Spanish manorhouse charm. Only booked a basic twin room, but it was roomy with plenty of storage, had a full size bath, and a balcony big enough for a table and three chairs. Beds seemed quite nice and were just right for us. Quite firm, but not rock hard.

Only minor things - a kettle in the room would have been good, as would an additional waste bin. As it was there was only the bathroom pedal bin in which to put our rubbish.

The most accommodating , friendly, welcoming, polite staff at the Hotel from the moment we arrived and left at early hours of the morning. There were plenty of sunbeds around the pool area which was always kept clean and maintained. The bar was accommodating with drinks and food from about 10am. There was always a pool life guard (SOS on their t-shirt) There was a bar area which had beautiful views of the coast so sitting there with a drink was just perfect. We stayed on the 3rd floor which was very quiet and a perfect outstanding view of the coast and the mountains. The beds were really comfy , had extra covers if the air con got too cold! Which in fact the aircon was fab! Coffee and tea facilities and a fridge to keep your drinks cold! There was literally a supermarket opposite the Hotel and a very short walk ( about 5 mins) into the main square and hidden beautiful streets above.

There was nothing really we didn't like , I would only suggest that some rooms might need a bit of an update, like the carpet was a bit worn and stained.
