Top Gibralfaro Castle Hotel Reviews

Hotel ILUNION Malaga

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room great cleaning staff Great front desk staff ."

Soho Boutique Equitativa

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place right near all the fun. Just note you have to put your room key in the holder when you walk in to get the air conditioner to turn on, which you manually have to turn on everytime you come back to the room. Otherwise great!"

Only YOU Hotel Malaga

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous stay. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Hotel was immaculately clean and food was delicious"

ICON Malabar

8/10 Good

"The hotel is good but I won’t come back they need to improve it is old"

Hotel Palacete de Álamos, Historic Center

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent characterful hotel. Great location next to El Retiro Park, which offers fantastic walks, gardens, history, restaurants, and park life."

Coeo Hostel Hernan Ruiz

8/10 Good

"Great location in the old Town but not too noisy. The pool was welcomed after a day sightseeing. Reasonably priced cafe downstairs with fresh sandwich options. The family room felt quite cramped with luggage in it but we weren't in Malaga to sit in a room in the summertime! Good, affordable option for a family wanting to explore and be in a great position to do so. Picasso museum, so many restaurants, the market all walkable."

Casa de la Merced Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Situé dans le centre historique"

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Malaga Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Very easy booking and check-in. The staff were friendly and helpful. Parking was great. Hotel was spotlessly clean and we enjoyed the breakfast"

MS Maestranza Málaga Centro

10/10 Excellent

"MS Marstrunza is perfect location close to the beach the port all restaurants and the city centre. The old town couldn’t get a better place to stay as far as location goes. The rooms are really big and lovely.Queen bed very comfortable a little bit dated but art deco style so the size of the room makes up for little bit wear and tear on the furniture. The only thing is the spa doesn’t open till 4:30pm in the afternoon which is such a ridiculous situation when it’s on the Mediterranean otherwise I have no complaints about my stay there."
