Best Siroco

We had a lovely girly few days away, hotel was clean and we were lucky enough to get a beautiful Seaview and updated rooms. Rooms were spacious, beds comfortable and bathroom was great. We went bed and breakfast and breakfast was lovely with lots of options, pool bar didn't open till 10.30, snacks and drinks were good prices and tasty. Would def return. The older lifeguard was a naggy rude man but everything else was perfect .

Hotel pictures need updating to give a true reflection, what you don’t see is the dumping ground for building waste to the side of the pool area. As for the star rating it’s a three at best and I’m being generous. I appreciate that there has been some modernisation carried out. Location is good. Rooms have the smallest wardrobes in-the world, but you do get access to a free safe for valuables. Have to admit the beds for me were excellent,I’ve always had issues with holiday hotel beds. Cleaning staff do a good job. We had paid extra for a better room but once again we had a lovely view of a builders yard. As for noise the hotel is located on a main road so if you’ve paid for a room upgrade you’ll hear everything from the main road. As for the breakfast it was ground hog day for seven days, no variation whatsoever. As for my room it was cleaned every day and I was happy with that. The hotel staff were very good and dealt with any issues I had in a polite , respectful and professional manner. Atmosphere, there seemed to be plenty of things going on during the day and night, but we took advantage of Benalmadena’s fantastic beaches ,marina restaurants and nightlife.

Lovely hotel, rooms spacious & cleaning done daily. Great location for the beach & not to far too the marina. 2nd year staying with a group if friends & would recommend 👌

My partner and I stayed at Hotel Best Siroco for four nights from late June into early July 2026 and overall we had a really enjoyable first holiday abroad together. Before arriving, we were a little apprehensive after reading some of the recent reviews, but after staying here myself, I honestly think many of them are quite exaggerated. The hotel could definitely do with some improvements, but did it ruin our holiday? Absolutely not. We left having made some great memories and felt the hotel offered good value for money. We booked a standard room but were pleasantly surprised to have a sea and pool view which was a bonus! The room itself was comfortable and cleaned daily to a good standard. That said, the rooms are beginning to look a little tired and could certainly benefit from some refurbishment and modernisation. It didn't affect our enjoyment of the holiday but it's something worth mentioning. The Wifi was also reliable throughout the hotel which was another positive. The hotel's location is excellent. The beach is only around a 300m walk away via the nearby pedestrian path, making it very easy to get to after a few steps. There are also plenty of shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants nearby, so everything you need is within walking distance. Despite being so close to everything, the area itself is peaceful and quiet, making it ideal if you're looking for a relaxing holiday. The pool area was enjoyable, although I would say the pools aren't quite as large as they look in the hotel photos. One issue we noticed (which unfortunately seems common at many hotels), was guests reserving sun beds early in the morning and then disappearing for three or more hours before returning. This obviously isn't the hotel's fault, but I do think management could do more to discourage it, as it made finding a sunbed difficult despite many sitting empty for long periods. The pool opens at 10am and closes at 8pm. You have the option to pay €25 to use some sun beds and the infinity pool which I think is slightly unfair for some. The biggest disappointment around the pool was the toilets. They really need more regular cleaning, as they often felt neglected compared with the rest of the hotel. This was probably the biggest issue we encountered during our stay. We stayed on a half-board tariff. Food seems to be one of the biggest talking points in many reviews and while I agree the variety could definitely be improved, I don't think it deserves the level of criticism it sometimes receives. There was always something we could eat and although the menu became a little repetitive after a few days, we never struggled to find a meal we enjoyed. If you're staying for a week or longer you may notice the limited selection more than we did. Breakfast was generally good, although it could get busy with queues during peak times. They usually moved fairly quickly, but if you prefer a later breakfast, be aware that some of the juices and drinks weren't always replenished. We also found it slightly disappointing that despite being on half board, water wasn't included with the evening meal. Having to pay €2.50 for a 1L bottle of water each night felt a little unnecessary. The staff were generally pleasant and helpful throughout our stay. While no one particularly stood out, we found everyone polite and professional. Reception could be frustrating at busy times, with long queues for both check in, check out and general enquiries. One thing future guests should definitely be aware of is the lifts. They seemed slow and unreliable throughout our stay and completely stopped working on our final day, meaning we had to carry our luggage down five flights of stairs. If you have mobility issues or are travelling with heavy suitcases, this is something worth considering. We spent most evenings exploring the local area, so we didn't see a great deal of the hotel's evening entertainment. However, there was live entertainment during dinner on some evenings, which was nice, although it could be quite loud if you were hoping for a quieter meal. Overall, despite a few negatives, as 2 teenagers, we genuinely had a great first holiday together. The hotel certainly has areas that could be improved, particularly the lifts, pool toilet cleanliness, food variety and room updates. Okay it may not be 4* standard, but it's nowhere near as bad as some reviews make it out to be. Thank you for a great holiday!

Good animatio and good food!!!

Nice animations excellend food

Very good location, next door to shops, bars and restaurants. Very close to the beach. Beach is accessible via a large zebra crossing or underground steps. The hotel is exactly what is presented on the pictures online. Rooms are basic (slightly dated) but clean and comfortable. Our room was cleaned every day. Pool area was nice, relatively clean with lots of sunbeds. The pool gates don’t open until 10am so no rush to reserve a sunbed. Along the back there is a lovely view of the sea. We used the infinity pool (16+ only) - €25 for 2 sunbeds all day, 2 large cups of water, 2 fruit stick and 2 cocktails. Definitely recommend this it was lovely and relaxing. The food was hit and miss. Breakfast was lovely everyday with lots of choice. Dinner on an evening some night there was a great choice and it tasted lovely others not so much. You can have fresh meat cooked for you, I had chicken but unfortunately it wasn’t cooked through still pink, I did mention this to a waiter at the time. They do have a stir fry option where you can choose what you’d like in it and watch it be cooked which was great. Either noodles or rice with veg and chicken. We ate out a few nights along the beach or in the marina - lovely meals and good prices. Cocktails and food are reasonably priced at hotel and at bars and restaurants. All in all a lovely trip for the price paid.

Minuses: poor animation team Poor evening entertaiment No good vibes, no good climates Arounds area like slums. Pluses: rooms ok Food exelent Staff helpfull

This hotel had its good points, our view from the room was lovely and it was clean, the food was a let down, we went half board and attended for only one evening meal, breakfast wasn't much better. The pool area was badly designed to sunbathe, most of the beds where on a slope and ine of the life guards/pool attendant was so grumpy, definitely not a four star, only a three.

Location of this hotel is not far from the beach , unfortunately there a main road to cross and there a 100 or so steps to go down to the beach alright going down but coming back up is hard if you struggle with walking or your legs or knees this was difficult . The hotel Atmosphere was ok there wasnt to many kids around but it was lovely. The Rooms at this hotel need up grading desperately The rooms were tiny . DO NOT GO IN ROOM 285 at back with a brick wall to look at .Theres 2 MASSIVE AIR CONDITIONING UNITS ON THE BALCONY SO NO ROOM AT ALL . We paid quite abit of money fot this holiday and i dont think its worth what we paid .. The rooms were cleaned every day and Towels were changed .We did noticed a few times that the towels had massive holes in them.Maybe they need to invest in new ones..The Bar staff were Brilliant they could do enough for you and the service was quick which was a bonus . NO Tea or Coffee in rooms :( NO KETTLE . NO ENGLISH TV NOT EVEN NEWS.NOTHING GOING ON IN THE POOL AREA TO KEEP PEOPLE ENTERTAINED. NO MUSIC BY POOL AREA ..ONLY MUSIC WAS BY BAR AREA . .THE POOLS WERE LOVELY BUT COULD DO WITH A GOOD CLEAN AROUND THE SIDES THE GROUNDS OF THIS HOTEL WERE UNKEMPT THERE WERE LOTS OF SPLASHES OF PLASTER ALL.ON WALKWAYS AND STEPS .THE GARDEN S WERE BEEN DONE BUT LOTS OF UN RULELY AREAS . THE HOTEL IS TRYING TO INPROVE BUT THERE ARE BETTER HOTELS ON THE BEACH FRONT NO I WOULD NOT RECCOMEND THIS HOTEL ......

Was apprehensive going here after reading reviews on here. This hotel is lovely. People on here on about the hill. Yes the "Front" entrance is on a hill, but there is also a back entrance off the pool that you can use with your key card that cuts out the hill. We never used the front entrance so do not let that put you off. At the back entrance there is some steps down a little tunnel that give you a shortcut to the beech. It is a "hotel" so there are not self catering facilities in the room. For 2 people there was two double beds which was very comfortable. The air condition worked perfectly. We were on the ground floor so views werent great but didnt have much outside noise. It was very clean. I found all the staff lovely from check in, to accommodation to pool bar staff. Cannot comment on the food as we were not all inclusive and the pool food is typical. The only thing to note is the pools are very cleverly photographed (which is usual) they are a lot smaller than the pictures. There is an infinity pool which is E25 per day (which I think should be open to anyone) and also E10 charge to use the double bed area. Nightly entertainment was a bit cheesy, and during our stay a lot of guests were pensioners. Great location for marina and beeches.

Having read the reviews prior to our trip I was dreading it, but I was pleasantly surprised. We booked a premium room and it was lovely, view of the pool and sea. We always managed to get a sun loungers each day no matter what time we went down. Don’t get me wrong the pool area isn’t the cleanest and they could clean the loungers down each day as they did have bird muck on one of the days. The drinks and food were ok, nothing special but there was always something to have and I am quite fussy. The hotel is central for everything, nightlife and Marina. All in all we had a good time and I would stay again.

excellent location, clean, good size rooms, great value for money, no noise, service great. Food amazing!

Stayed at the hotel Best Sirico, NEVER NEVER AGAIN, The costa Del Sol is a disgrace. very dirty smelly place people very rude, We couldent get in the swimming pool as it was full of kids and kids toys. Food not good Dont waste your money
