What I liked: The location is excellent, just steps away from the city center — perfect if you plan to walk around and visit the main sights. Breakfast was good, with a nice variety of options. The room was on the smaller side, but acceptable for a short stay. What I didn’t like: Room issues and heating problems The first room I was given was at the very end of a very long hallway — it honestly felt like a block-long walk (see photo). I asked to change rooms and was told the only available option was next to the elevator, which I accepted. In that room, the heating system did not work. I called reception, and technical support came, saying it was “easy” to turn on by flipping a switch — unfortunately, the switch showed a cold air symbol and only blew cold air. Please note, this was January. I was moved yet again to another room. The heating worked there, but there was a noticeable sewer-like odor. At that point, I didn’t complain further. Service experience The room was booked for two people, though I was staying alone. One evening, a friend visited, and I asked reception for an extra blanket with a cover. When I returned to the room later that night, I found only a duvet cover folded on the bed — no blanket. I went back to reception to clarify, and the receptionist returned with a blanket without a cover and simply handed it to me. There was no apology, no explanation, no effort to correct the mistake properly. Honestly, if I wanted to manage everything myself, I would have booked an Airbnb rather than a hotel. I may simply not be used to this level of service. Overall, while the location and breakfast were strong points, the repeated room changes and lack of attentive service disappointing.

I had a few days in Malaga sightseeing and watching Malaga CF the hotel was ideally situated for both. Comfortable, nice bar area and an excellent breakfast.

I booked an Executive room mainly because it includes a mini fridge, a kettle, and a Nespresso coffee machine. These rooms are located on the top (fourth) floor of the hotel and offer a very nice view. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the room was spacious and well equipped with a desk, chair, and good lighting. The bathroom was also of a good size, with a very spacious shower cabin, which was a big plus. The room temperature was comfortable throughout the stay. The hotel's location is perfect. Breakfast was very tasty and varied, offering several hot dishes, cold cuts, cheeses, fruits, fruit juices, and a wide selection of bakery items. A major advantage is that breakfast is available from 6:30 a.m., which is ideal if you are leaving early for a full-day excursion. The room was cleaned thoroughly, and the staff were consistently kind and helpful. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, and I would gladly recommend this accommodation.
