My parents have stayed here a number of times and they absolutely love it.
It’s very luxurious.
The rooms are big, well-equipped, and cleaned impeccably. This, combined with helpful, attentive services, makes it a lovely place to stay.
The hotel also has four restaurants and two bars, including a rooftop bar with jaw-dropping views of Estepona.
If you can afford it, it’s certainly worth a stay. If not, be sure to check out the roof bar anyway.

It’s completely central on the square and the beach is so close you can walk there in two minutes flat. The main restaurant is affordable and also has tables outside on the plaza with awnings for a cozy setting. There’s an Irish bar which is frequented by passers by too.
And two other restaurants on the premises.
Also it’s surrounded by restaurants and cafes, it’s just great.
There’s a parking garage directly around the corner which costs 19,- euros a day.
We ran up a stomach flu during our stay and they paid special attention to us. I’m very grateful for that. They even arranged for a doctor to check up on us even though it wasn’t really necessary. I can recommend this hotel El Pilar which highest regards.
The only thing that I can think of which was a little annoying is that the two singles that make up the master bed, kept sliding apart at night.
The English breakfast each morning was spot on. Hot and flavorsome and we could add extras or swaps to our dish.I had breakfast tea the first morning and to be honest, it was too weak and tasteless and I don’t think the addition of a second tea bag in the pot would have made much difference to it. So I went for the coffee the next morning which was excellent.
We had a bar meal in Coopers, which was OK but spoiled a little by ingredients that were not mentioned on the menu, and items that were on the menu not included. There were pickles in the burger, that maybe I missed or were not on the menu, and no caramelised onions that were on the menu. My partner asked for a plain hot dog and asked for caramelised onions to be added. What she got was a hot dog with raw spring onions on top and something that looked like pulled pork under the hot dog. So not the best.
We loved the whole experience and will certainly return later this year.
