Weekend break.. Clean, tidy and well located.. Prob would stay again if i was back that way.. But I wont be back that way.. Benalmadena would not be for me.. The area is not great.. Bars and eateries and far to many people trying to sell you something, anything... Mind you, there is a great steak house in the marina... More

Stayed at the Alay for the 5th time this year during our golf trip - always ok - rarley get to breakfast - but on the occassions i have its always been ok - agree about the cold beans! very polite staff, clean room - comfortable, will stay again - good value for money.

great hotel, all of us loved it. Clean, friendly, very quiet at night so not disturbed at all. Agree with all the comments about cold beans!! Fancy trying Portugal for next golf holiday but if we go back to Spain would'nt hesitate in booking Hotel Alay again

The hotel is in a great location. The staff are friendly and helpful. It is not a 4 star hotel more like a 3 star Irish hotel. The breakfasts are the same every day but there is plenty of choice.

We stayed here for 4 nights as a base for our golfing holiday. We were 4 men in 2 twin rooms and whilst the hotel provided the basics for what we wanted, i.e. location in the centre of the golf courses, walking distance to bars and night life, the hotel was a typical 4* spanish hotel in need of updating....

Pleasantly surprised that drinks in hotel are cheaper now than 5... More

Just spent 3 weeks in the Hotel Alay, Benalmadena. The location is great so near marina, beach, bus routes and the lovely walk through Carihuela to Torremolinos. We could not say enough in praise of the Staff in the Restaurant, Bar, Snack Bar and Reception. They were so friendly and helpful. Really made our holiday. Rooms are clean, beds comfortable... More
