Beautiful boutique hotel

We had 2 nights at La Fonda and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel is a beautiful old building that has recently been sympathetically renovated. Beautiful spacious bedroom with large en suite. The pool area, sun terrace and foyer are stunning. Good choice of hot and cold food for breakfast.

Lovely boutique style hotel in excellent location away from the tourist hustle and bustle on the coast but with plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Excellent breakfast and highly recommend freshly made omelettes. No hesitation in recommending.
Charmian, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What a find! In Benalmadena Pueblo. The old village is a delight. Quiet lots of restaurants and nice bars/easy link to Mijas and train station by bus. Too far if you want easy access to beach snd front - but we didn’t. The only downside is lack of bar but there’s loads nearby. Visitors must go to cafe below the hotel where the local Flamenco Chour practices. Cheap and hood food

Lovely traditional boutique hotel

Absolutely beautiful hotel,very traditional. Beautiful rooms,great views.Lovely spa,breakfast was very good,eggs all freshly cooked. We had an evening meal at the restaurant,it was very good & amazing value. There are some lovely little courtyards with restaurants & bars near the hotel. The main resorts ,are all within a 10-20 min cab ride. If you want a break ,with a traditional Spanish feel,look no further than La Fonda,we will definitely return

Over all the hotel is not bad but I think it is becoming a bit rundown there needs to be more attention to the customer gardeners filling up water buckets at breakfast lots of rubbish in plane sight from the breakfast balcony no bar available at times. But in a good location.

6/10 Good

There was a lot of construction going on while we visited. So, it was quite noisy and messy in the hotel. Our room was clean, but I think there must have been some recent renovation because it smelled quite a bit of paint. The staff were nice and the included breakfast was good. I recommend not staying on the first floor, however. The room was close to the restaurant, so that made sleeping difficult because of the noise. Also, one night there was a man having an argument with someone and we could hear everything. It persisted off and on until after midnight, at which point we called the front desk. To be fair, the noise stopped immediately, and we didn’t hear anything else for the rest of our stay. Parking was convenient but requires some technical driving skills getting into the garage and spaces.
