Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with a superb balcony boasting a fantastic view over Malaga. While there were some mosquitoes initially, it was manageable afterward. The twin-only room setup may feel overlooked by visitors coming for the view.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The location is exceptional, just a short walk from the city with a stunning view of the port. The rooms were cozy with a comfy bed but lacked individual air conditioning. The service was top-notch, especially during the evening at the bar. The dining experience was delicious, although it started a bit late for my taste. The facilities were great, and I always managed to snag a lounger by the pool. Definitely worth the cost for a lovely experience in Malaga.
The hotel offers breathtaking views of Malaga and the stunning surroundings. The rooms are spacious and clean, though they could use a little sprucing up. The service was generally friendly, but there's room for improvement in professionalism. The location is excellent, especially for those seeking cultural highlights. Dining options were varied and abundant, though pricing could be a concern. Overall, a charming retreat with untapped potential.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with breathtaking views overlooking the Mediterranean sea and harbor from the rooms. The outdoor tables were a perfect spot to enjoy the scenery. The service was top-notch, especially with the charming staff who made sure everything was perfect. The location on top of a hill, though limiting in terms of activities, offered fantastic views of Malaga and the sea. However, the dining experience was a bit overpriced for what was served. Overall, a great value for the money with some minor drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, although cozy and clean, were on the smaller side and lacked a good view. The service was decent but could have been more welcoming. The location, while convenient, was not exactly as expected. The dining was acceptable, although a bit pricey. Overall, it was an average stay with some room for improvement.
