"We loved the location and the property, however the pillows were foam and both my husband and I did not sleep well because of this. The rooftop terrace was amazing, beautiful views. Overall, we loved the property. It was decorated beautifully 😍 One nice touch was beer and wine was available upon arrival. You simply helped yourself and made note of this, paying when you checked out. We would recommend this hotel."

Top Gibralfaro Castle Hotel Reviews

ME Malaga by Melia

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed four nights and from the moment we arrived the staff were brilliant. The first night we found the room ( a junior suite) wasn’t really suitable due to the layout. The following day they gave a beautiful suite, must be one of the best in hotel. Everyday when we were picking up the car, they gave us water for the journey. As my wife is disabled, they kindly said they would deliver breakfast to save her having to go to the restaurant on a morning and they didn’t charge extra. Room service food generally was a very good standard and reasonable priced Overall we have to commend the staff, helpful, friendly, the list goes on. Great stay, thank you all again; you are a credit to the Melia group"

Hotel ILUNION Malaga

10/10 Excellent

"La habitación limpia y el personal amable, la camera de habitación hizo la habitación y me lo ordenó muy bien, excelente trabajo"

Málaga Hotel Eliseos

8/10 Good

"Good location. Nice views from upper floors. Breakfast was decent."

Tandem Soho Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We booked the studio apartment, I didn't realise it was street access on the ground level with the door opening directly into it. Initially I was concerned about how noisy it was going to be but it was an extremely quiet street so it was perfect. The bed was huge and super comfy, the check-in was seamless and to get in and out of our apartment you simply use an access code, all super easy. We loved, the amount of space that we had with all brand new amenities."

Only YOU Hotel Malaga

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent breakfast, not the usual full English! But such a great choice. Rooms are stunning, extremely well kept and clean. And finally, the staff were so polite and helpful. Thank you."

MS Maestranza Málaga Centro

10/10 Excellent

"staf"

Petit Palace Plaza Malaga Hotel

8/10 Good

"Reception was well handled. Room was fine. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Adequate room for clothes. Large and airy room. Location very good. Restaurants in large numbers and access to historical sites and the port. Only large problem was the breakfast. This needs a thorough review. The staff were overwhelmed and overworked. Resources ran out and eg bowls not replaced promptly. Too many customers at once? Mind you the customers were not helpful. Maybe start to charge for breakfast to limit numbers? Or find some way of regulating in flow? Overall good value for money."
