Top Málaga Centro Hotel Reviews

Hotel ILUNION Malaga

8/10 Good

"Great location and excellent parking and the breakfast was good . Bathroom could have been cleaned to a better standard."

Only YOU Hotel Malaga

8/10 Good

"Very well located to enjoy the Centro. Parking right next to the hotel was very hard to get to with car. Not as many amenities as I would’ve liked, there was no iron for clothes. Staff very friendly, check in and check out at whatever time we got there at 1am and when we left at 5am, very helpful staff. Rooms are absolutely beautiful, I would recommend getting view of port. Breakfast had many options, so I would recommend getting breakfast in hotel (they also open at 7:30am most shops closed at this time) before heading off to start your day. One thing that did happen was when we used the tub, it caused the shower to flood and smelled of sulfur water, it did eventually go down and we didn’t use the tub anymore and had no issues but that would be one downside to having something and not being able to use it. Otherwise it was an amazing stay at an amazing city!"

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Malaga Centre

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed overnight before taking the train the following day. This was an excellent location for the train station. About a 5 min walk. The room was very small and the bed was a little creaky but it was perfect for what I needed. Everything in the room was well maintained and the room was well equipped- except no refrigerator which I always prefer to have in a hotel room. The breakfast was excellent. I would definitely stay there again if I was coming back and traveling via train."

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."

Be Mate Málaga Soho

8/10 Good

"Great location for all attractions. The rooms were large with all required amenities. Call out to Sara who helped us with onward transport after our train from Malaga to Seville was cancelled. She assured and provided great guidance on best approach to take following train cancellation. All in all a good hotel in an excellent location."
