“Needs Updated - Expensive”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 June 2013

The hotel surroundings are gorgeous but the room we had required extensive updating as it was very dark and the TV was old with a bad signal. No kettle in the room to make tea/coffee or free still water which after staying in numerous hotels should be essential. Mini bar prices are also over priced as well as the breakfast.... More

“First class!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 June 2013 via mobile

I stayed at the Rio Real hotel with a friend from 20th May to 24th May. The 40 min coach transport link from Malaga airport to Marbella was very good at 8 euros per person and then it was a short taxi ride to the resort costing 10-15 euros. The hotel staff were very pleasant on arrival. The Par Superior... More

“Too many small irritations to be really satisfied”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 April 2013 via mobile

Let me start by saying It was in general a nice hotel. Location is good, right on the golf course, and our room (Eaglesuite) was pretty gourgious. But there were too many small things not good to be really happy in the end. First of all there was no wifi in the room although the hotel advertises with free wifi... More

We just returned from our 3rd visit to the Rio Real Hotel & Golf and we just love this hotel. Yes, some of the rooms should get a make over and appear a bit old but the hotel compensates more than enough with its charm. Staff is super friendly, great breakfast, restaurant is very good etc...

“nice room shame about the hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 July 2012

The only positive thing about this hotel, was the fact that our room was beautiful and spacious, If you do not play golf this is not the hotel for you, the pool was no bigger than a postage stamp, the loungers had no mattresses on, only a towel, which became very uncomfortable after a while, the food was very well...

“best hotel in marbella”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 July 2012

2nd visit to the Rio Real and loved it just as much as the 1st time we were there so much so that we are returning in August. Friendly staff, excellent breakfast, spotless rooms, towels, bedding etc. Small & intimate, never crowded. I wouldn't stay at any other hotel whilst in Marbella, only drawback is you need a car.
