Hotel de referencia en Torremolinos
Pros:

Me gustó TODO, está muy bien

Cons:

NADA, todo perfecto, personal muy amable.
Por poner alguna “pega”, en el baño sería necesario una mampara para evitar llenar el suelo de agua.

Cons:

Nem volt olyan

A once great gay hotel that is quickly going down under new management
Pros:

The fact that it’s a gay-only venue. Hosts great parties and events and creates a safe space for our community

Cons:

Its future seems uncertain. There seems to be a movement towards adults-only with the new management. We fear the new management are there for profit only. The sense of being is quickly getting lost. Lifts and rooms are tired; not investment is being made. The food quality at the breakfast buffet has significantly declined over very the past 5 years. As a gay couple we will be looking for another accommodation in our next visit.

Not worth the money for the discomfort and lack of concern by staff.
Pros:

Housekeeping was nice, breakfast was good.

Cons:

Rock hard, divided beds preventing a couple from sleeping together, or sleeping at all. No ventilation other than a fan without A/C or an open door allowing bugs in. Nasty front desk. Bait and switch on the bedding with a "confirmed, subject to availability" THAT is total BS, especially in the shoulder season for E1,000! Either you do or don't have it available, and you know that when we book it.

Overall, a very pleasant stay with great location and friendly staff.
Pros:

The location is perfect, and the key provided for beach access is very convenient (even though there’s a €50 deposit, it’s definitely worth it). The bed is comfortable, and the staff are very friendly.
The pool area is great.

Cons:

Rooms are a bit dated and showing their age, even though they’ve recently had a “facelift.” The wardrobe is quite small, and the panelling feels awkward (in the picture, the wardrobe is just the dark brown doors).
The bathroom towels are very thin—they get soaked quickly, so you end up replacing them daily even when it doesn’t really feel necessary.
Another slightly odd detail was the bathroom door. It worked fine, but it has two mop holder clips attached (see picture), which feels a bit out of place.
There’s also no storage in the bathroom for toiletries, which is inconvenient.

Esperando un brillante futuro en la nueva etapa que comienza.
Pros:

Ubicación ,personal en recepción y desayunos.
Hotel amplio y con buenas instalaciones ( a mejorar/ mantener) y ambiente

Cons:

Habitación con mobiliario un tanto deteriorado que necesita actualizarse.
Almohadas y colchón un tanto incómodos.
Cuarto de baño y habitación con cierto mal olor a cañerías y teléfono ducha perdía bastante agua por manguera metálica.
Tumbonas de piscina necesitan ser sustituidas por otras nuevas en su mayor parte al estar muy viejunas y con mal color en su superficie de reposo.
Conocemos el hotel desde que se pusó en funcionamiento con cadena Ritual.
Ahora que se nos dijo ha cambiado de propietario, esperamos vaya reforzando puntos débiles del hotel sin que pierda su caracter abierto y libre para comunidad LGTBIQ+..
La relación calidad precio deja que desear y eso ya se venía viviendo desde varios años atrás en que fue perdiendo calidad con la cadena Ritual ( cuando había tenido un comienzo y etapa de esplendor durante varios años) ,como así se le hizo saber por nuestra parte, pues hemos sido clientes en multitud de ocasiones y eventos como aniversarios y nocheviejas,etc...

Ritual’s great vibe and friendly service shine, even if the rooms could be comfier.
Pros:

Ritual never lets you down. The rooms are cozy, though cleanliness and comfort could use a bit of improvement. The real highlight is the hotel's vibe, making it a great spot to meet new people. Breakfast is plentiful, and the service is always friendly and attentive.

Cons:

The cleanliness and comfort could use some improvement.

Moc hezký hotel, skvělá atmosféra a lidé.
Pros:

Moc pěkný hotel, pokoje čisté a dostačující, personál skvělý, snídaně super. Pánové na recepci při příjezdu i odjezdu, byli milý, usměvavý a přátelští, fakt se tady člověk cítil skvěle. Jediné mínus bylo, že bylo volno pouze na jednu noc, příště si musím udělat rezervaci víc dopředu. Určitě se do tohoto hotelu moc rád vrátím.

Cons:

Nebylo nic, co by můj dojem pokazilo.
