Hotel Monarque Cendrillón

Pretty basic room but what else do you need,, great staff very helpful and friendly. Situated 100 yards form the beach front. We went half board so we bought refreshments on site which was very reasonable. Would definetly recommend here. Plenty of sun loungers large and small pools, entertainment and the food varies with plenty of choices

The restaurant in the hotel is very large in area, because it serves guests from two related hotels. There is an unpleasant odor in the restaurant that can be noticed immediately upon entering, probably due to chemical treatment. The restaurant is very noisy, as chairs make loud noises when pulled out from tables, plus very noisy English pensioners, although the local Spanish ones try to keep up with them. The food is very monotonous, boring, and becomes tiresome after 3 days. Breakfast is especially dull, and although there seems to be a choice for lunch and dinner, the food itself is tasteless. It's mass-produced, I would say conveyor-belt food, designed for quantity rather than quality. The food is also very greasy - pasta floats in cold water, fish is all in oil, fried eggs are swimming in oil to the point you could blot/soak them, and the meat/fish is fatty. It's very unhealthy food, and this is the biggest drawback. In addition, we saw a fat cockroach near the "cakes and pastries" section - see the photo. And if you want to see cockroaches upfront, just open the lid of the ice cream compartment, and you'll see about half a dozen cockroaches crushed by the lid itself, which no one even bothers to clean up. Dishes are often greasy, with food remnants, with some yellowish stains on the plates. The coffee is simply terrible. The juice is artificial. Desserts are tasteless. Overall, the impression is very negative - we were so reluctant to eat in the hotel restaurant that despite having paid for full board, we were forced to eat in restaurants in town. The hotel owners need to decide: either they want to save money, whatever the outcome may bw or they need to change the chef because this food is inedible. We do not recommend this hotel - it has only one positive aspect: it's a two-minute walk to the beach, and that's where it ends. The sound insulation in the hotel is poor, all doors slam, and the staff is quite helpless. You'll end up more tired than rested! Overall, we rate it a C minus.

Good and bad here first of all its close to the beach but only one or two decent bars with no entertainment except sports on tv - Monaghans was the best secondly the hotel is clean and the staff a really friendly but then the bad the beds are rock hard and so is the pillar and its not a walk in bath/shower you have to climb in it becomes very slippy after shower and no shower mat. Now as for entertainment the hotel was full to the brim of really old pensioner spanish people and the entertainment three times a week for a spanish singing due in their mid 60s and flamenco dancers nothing on at all during the daytime the food is ok some better days than others wish microwaves not recommended for anyone under 40 hope this helps

The hotel was okay food wasn't that great! Not a lot of selection. Rooms were comfortable and clean, pool was lovely. Beach not far to walk too and pubs but not very many on the beach front. Enjoyed our stay but would go to this location again. Train station close by.

Plenty of reviews of this hotel.remember this this hotels pool , restaurant, garden and facilities are all used by the much larger sister hotel fuengirola park. Staff are fantastic,the place is spotless. Five stars 💐 Hotel rooms for two very acceptable,yes shower is a hose but still good.If you have a room facing the main road you will need ear plugs. Road noise really loud.you will have to use them in any room as when people come and go in this hotel when I was there they were loud. All inclusive means alot of drunk and noisy people,not the hotel s fault. Food I loved,five stars 🤩🤩 Overall a really good hotel..but ear plugs a must.

We spent 10 days here and had such a relaxing holiday, couldn't fault anything really, onlly one downside was the shower wasn't very good, thanks for a lovely stay will definitely be back sometime, lovely beach too
