Top Málaga Centro Hotel Reviews

Hotel Larios Málaga

10/10 Excellent

"Spotless rooms, well stocked minibar if you intend to use it. The only downside is that despite the soundproofed rooms, you can still hear the noise of people milling outside. Not surprising given its central location which was a real bonus in exploring Malaga itself. Bathroom didn’t appear to have an extractor fan either which isn’t ideal but despite all this, I still rate this place highly because of the helpful staff, clean facilities, perfect location and in-room safe and air-conditioning. Would stay here again if I was visiting Malaga. However bear in mind that the hotel is in a pedestrianised zone with the nearest taxi pickup points being a few minutes walk away. Uber have a handy map showing pickup points around the pedestrianised zone. Also the hotel entrance is a small set of glass automated doors next to Victoria’s Secret.. The hotel reception is also on the first floor of the multi-storey building. Airport is only 10-15 minutes away by taxi."
