Torrox, Malaga Hotel Rooms at the Independent

The hotel is simple, very central and friendly. It is barely signposted and along a tiny street so quite hard to find (streets are so narrow its not obvious). Very close to the central square and a nice place to stay.

A fantastic hotel with really pearsonable owners who make you feel at home and relaxed in a lovely traditional spanish village setting. All was just superb! A big thank you to Sarah, Neil and Karen.

A quirky and beautiful hotel in the hills above Frigiliana and Nerja. The views from the rooms were stunning and it was very peaceful and relaxing. The rooms were basic but very clean and everything worked. Dinner in the restaurant was a strange experience....... My boyfriend & I ordered starters and main courses. His starter was brought out very promptly and just as he was finishing his, mine came out. As I was eating mine, my main course came out! We asked them to take this back until I had finished. So they took it back then when I had finished and promptly delivered my main. Then my boyfriend was left waiting for his!! It was a bit of a shambles and the restaurant/kitchen needs a little help with timing & leadership!! Overall, the experience was not all bad as we watched the moon rise over the hills to the East and it was a beautiful setting! We would definitely stay again, as the staff were very helpful and friendly (even though they didn't speak much English but our Spanish is very poor!!). I would have given 5 stars if we hadn't had the experience in the restaurant.

very close to the beach, really friendly staff, good food, easy to get from and to the airport, will definitely come back for stress free holidays.

Went in a group of 6 female friends. I booked the hotel at random through Experia because it was cheap and was not in an overly touristy resort. The town is very unprepossessing, no good if you want to spend time sightseeing and looking round a quaint area, but we were just there for a long weekend of relaxation. I didn't have high expectations of the hotel when booking it, but the cleanliness of the rooms and the helpfulness of the staff could not be faulted. Our rooms were comfortable and quite spacious. The rooftop pool is a good size and there are also sheltered sunbeds nearby. The hotel was literally 2 mins walk from the lovely promenade which is lined with lovely tapas bars and restaurants. We can heartily recommend the sangria at Bar Rafael. The Torrox area claims to have the best climate in Europe. The resort is very authentically Spanish - there were lots of Spanish week-enders but hardly any English there, and the cost of living was very reasonable,
