"We've stayed at the Hotel Don Miguel many times over the last few years.
We stayed here this time for 7 nights half board (breakfast and dinner, drinks not included)
We like the hotel, it has a good feel to it.
It's a very busy & often full occupancy hotel, which must be a great plus for Servatur Hotels & Resorts.
We love the adults only concept.
The cleanliness of the hotel everywhere is good.
The food is always good and the staff are helpful and friendly (Patrick is very friendly)
Some of the guests staying here on this occasion were VERY loud. They just couldn't talk or engage in a conversation at a normal volume level. We have no problem at all with people having a laugh & a giggle (in this life & whilst on holiday, we're not party poopers) but they took it literally to another level completely, where it impacted upon other guests (with zero consideration & no self awareness)
Nice spacious rooms & bathrooms, although we would say the bathrooms in particular would now benefit from a renovation (The hotel is due to be fully renovated in 2027, which we believe is definitely due)
Overall a good hotel, great location and good food, lots of options at the buffet for a 3 star Hotel.
The A la Carte Restaurant in the bar is a nice touch too if you're bored of the buffet (you can book this once during your stay)
Our main observation is that some areas of the hotel now require a renovation.
Built in 1974 & acquired by Riu Hotels & Resorts in 1990, it was then partially renovated, followed by another partial Renovation in 2012.
The hotel was then sold to Servatur Hotels & Resorts in 2021
The Hotel is now due a complete & full renovation in 2027. It's sadly becoming a little run down in some areas now.
We just hope they don't remove some of the amenities when it's refurbished, like the fridges in the rooms & the free safe.
We had a couple of problems in our room whilst we stayed here. The ceiling fan broke, as did the shower head & both were fixed & replaced straight away.
