My wife and I spent 5 wonderful days at Riu Nautalis in Spain. The Hotel was clean, comfortable and the Buffet had some wonderful food choices. The hotel was near the beach and was within walking distance of shops, reasaurants and bars. We had a wonderful time and will use Riu hotels in the future.

Good hotel in the middle of Torremolinos

Good hotel in the middle of all you can wish for in Torremolinos but got a room in a low floor and without sun in the back of the hotel even when I contacted the hotel beforehand with a wish of higher up. And the dinner buffé was better got my stays before this one

Winter sun break 2023

Really nice, modern hotel, at the far end of Torremolinos, closer to Benalmádena. Great base for exploring the area. Excellent outdoor pool area and direct access to the beach. Decent buffet breakfast and dinner with plenty of choice and different options each evening. Colour scheme in the lobby area not to everyone’s taste, but bright and airy. Nice indoor pool, gym and spa.

Super Nice hotel.

Fantastic Hotel. right down to the promenade, the beach and the Mediterranean. Nice pool with plenty of sunbeds, even if you arrive late there is the option of getting a sunbed. Super delicious morning and evening buffet. Possibility of a la carte in the evening. Very clean and nice common areas. Friendly and welcoming staff. +18 years to stay at the hotel provides a nice and quiet hotel, both day and night. It's certainly not the last time we've been there. Greetings, a couple in their 60s.

A great stay

Booked for two nights and stayed for four. We received a great welcome, had a lovely room on the seventh floor and had dinner included. The food was typical of a buffet style hotel restaurant and with plenty of choice. A good hotel to rekax in. We especially applauded the fact that there was no music around the pool area. Easy access to the beach. Very clean throughout with friendly and helpful staff. We'd definitely stay again if we were in the area.
