Barcelo Premium Rooms
There 178 guestrooms in the hotel of which there are four types. The standard is better than many five star standard rooms which surprised me. The bathrooms are spotless with a separate bath and shower unit. All rooms have either a view of the Guadalmina golf course or the pool. As you go up in price the rooms get larger and larger until you reach the premium rooms that are sectioned off from the rest of the hotel; these are bigger than my apartment and include a huge bathroom with jacuzzi and a sun deck.Barcelo Premium Restaurants & Bars

The main pool is huge and is the main focus of the hotel, with its onsite cocktail and drinks bar. In regards to other hotel facilities, the Barcelo Marbella has a paddle tennis court that is set amongst some lovely landscaped gardens, a large gym and a treatments area with a Turkish bath, sauna and hydrotherapy baths.Stayed here with some golfing friends for a long weekend in August. The hotel is quite modern and the rooms were great, the underground parking another bonus. It was perfect for the occasion, we took advantage of the surrounding golf courses and got taxis to Puerto Banus in the evenings. I would of liked to have stayed cloer to the port and tried looking for a decent place near or in Puerto Banus but nowhere seemed to stand out, might try the Guadalpin in Banus, which I've heard good things about...any recommends anyone?
The Barcelo is great value for money...its a really modern hotel with above 4star rooms. It’s a bit out of the action being past Marbella and Puerto Banus, so if you want to eat outside the hotel then you should get a taxi to Puerto Banus but it does have the surrounding golf courses, which is of course what the hotel is really all about but I had a peaceful time by the pool and in the spa (which is a bit small)whilst my husband enjoyed the golf.
