Top Málaga Hotel Reviews

AC Hotel Málaga Palacio by Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"Our one-night stay was absolutely amazing! Everything was top-notch—from the warm, welcoming service to the beautiful, spotless accommodations. The attention to detail made our short stay feel truly special and luxurious. We only wish we could have stayed longer! We highly recommend this place and would definitely return."

Hotel ILUNION Malaga

8/10 Good

"Fab hotel in a great location. Staff are very helpful in general. My only complaint is relating to the hot food options which are pretty basic. My daughter asked the chef to make her a pancake, which is an option available given the pancake mix is right to the grill, he refused. I then went up to ask why and get his attention, but he simply failed to come out from the back of the kitchen to talk. Really poor. Went back to my chair and proceeded to finish my tea. I then cancelled the next days booking and we went outside for breakfast. Apart from that, everything else about the holiday is brilliant"

Barceló Malaga Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente"

Hotel Málaga Nostrum Airport

10/10 Excellent

"When you get to the hotel, you are in the middle of nowhere, sort of an industrial area. However, it is very close to the airport and has a gorgeous pool, the rooms are nice, the staff was very helpful, and the restaurant food was decent."

Hotel Plaza del Castillo

10/10 Excellent

"It would have been helpful to have a what to do or where to go around because the place is so secluded. But overall it was a beautiful place and the service was great. The hotel restaurant is nice"

NH Málaga Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, clean and comfortable, in excellent location for historic centre with super helpful staff. I recommend to.all."

Holiday Inn Express Malaga Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very close to the airport. Nice clean room. Very helpful staff with a very nice buffet breakfast to start the day."

Catalonia Molina Lario

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location on the edge of the city center with a super helpful staff. However, driving your own car proved quite challenging due to road restrictions in the historic area if you’re not familiar with it. Would recommend contacting in advance for specific driving/arrival directions. Air conditioning in the room was amazingly cold and way better than even “luxury hotels” in Andalucia that limit your ability to lower the temp. Had an early flight and could not enjoy the breakfast."

Málaga Hotel Eliseos

8/10 Good

"great location super friendly staff"
