Avenida de Sorolla, 7, 29620 Torremolinos, Spain
The Griego Mar enjoys a central location close to cafes, nightlife and shops. It is 250 metres to the bus stop for the beach, which is recommended as the route is steep. The central location can mean some noise.

As a budget hotel this hotel far exceeded our expectations, it was clean, the food was plentiful and frequently re-stocked so always hot. The staff were always friendly and helpful, requests were dealt with very promptly.

Rooms clean, but in low season choose a room above the Restaurant area for maximum sun.

Would we visit again? Most definitely Yes.

Entertainment was a let down, did not keep to publicised times and was predominately bingo!!

Long trek to the beach, down very steep hills. Thankfully there are lifts for the return, but hidden away and not sign posted.

Cleanliness was good, a army of cleaners every day were scurrying around like ants, towels changed every day, beds 3 times a week. The food was basic, even though repetative, you have the choice of fish, meat, or pasta or salads. People must remember this not the Ritze, it's a 3star.I think a big downfall for the hotel is its location, a good 15 minute walk to the beach, and if you've got kids that's a long way. having said that, it's ideal for the night life, right in the centre of town. The hotel staff were helpfull at all times if you wanted anything.I think the entertainment was very poor, I tried it out twice and each time walked out. If I went back to this resort I would look for another hotel, but if it was a last minute thing, I would go back.

What a dump !!! Arrived at this hotel and tried everything in my power to find somewhere else but the resort was full. In short food inedible - even breakfast, room too small, view from balcony was like Beruit, resort was filthy, lifts only fit 4 people in and there were 3 lifts for 400 rooms, entertainment was a joke. We were all inclusive but we didn;t eat one meal and got a taxi to Benalmadena every day which was lovley - cost us another

I have got to say this is without doubt the worst Hotel I have had the misfortune to stop in !!!

Although the Hotel was relatively clean the food was poor regarding variety (unless you like chips with everything)

Having two children was a problem as the pool is far too small for the size of this Hotel. Therefore we caught taxi's most days down to the beach.

The entertainment was adequate.

This Hotel was bad enough in June I would dread to think what it would be like during peak season !!!!

We went as a group of 2 couples ages from 47-62.

The food was really good and plenty of it, a lot to choose from, the meals were self service.

The location suited me as it was close enough for shopping and I found the area quiet.

We did not bother with the hotel entertainment, we made our own fun.

Some of the hotel staff were not very helpful, we waited for an hour on a room to get showered before we came home, we had to have a wash in the toilets.

I would visit this hotel again because the food was so good, but half board would be ample.

Hotel was quite lively but that's what we were looking for. Went out a lot so cant really give an accurate account of the entertainment, but the staff were lovely from the manager to the cleaners.

The food was lovely and the hotel very clean and welcoming it is very central for everything altogether a wonderful holiday.

Was at bit worried about going to this hotel after reading some of the reports on here. No need to worry me and me mate went last week in Sept, we are quite picky as to where we stay but thought this was cheap enough so we took the gamble.

Glad we did hotel was clean our room was large and newly decorated. The food was OK there was something every meal time you could find to eat. The staff were friendly enough they do like a laugh.

The entertainment is always hit and miss, we managed to get the Spanish pensioners week so it was one song Spanish one in English but they tried.

The hotel is in the town and its quite a walk to the beach, in the town the buses run to a good timetable and the trains are cheap clean and always on time well worth a trip out on.

All in all we had a good time and if the price was right I would definitely go back.

Hotel Greigo mar 23 August 2006.

Party of 4 adults 2 children.

Food reasonable not much variety. Room kept very clean, swimming pool gets very crowded, mad dash for sun beds then no room to place them. There is a nice sitting area just back from the pool.

All inclusive the free drinks are not very nice but you can pay half price for the good stuff at the pool bar, food only seems to be available at certain times
not much for the children or adults to do in the way of entertainment during the day, pool a bit on the small side for a large hotel.

Hotel not bad for a 3 star. I don

We were allocated on arrival with First Choice.

The hotel has 2 things going for it the location and how clean it is kept. The pool was far too small for the amount of guests. The food was always luke warm lucky they was a microwave in the dining area.

Not really for English people as the food was more for the Spanish. The lifts were another story young children messing with them sending them up and down, not very nice when you
