Barceló Malaga Hotel

Barceló Malaga Hotel

8/10 Good
"Located at the Zambrano train station, with stores and eateries nearby. We took trips to Sevilla so we just jumped on a train there. Very clean. Great staff. Nice pool on the roof. The only really bad thing: no drawers or storage for clothes in the room except a closet and 2 tiny drawers in a moveable end table. We had clothes for 11 days and had to lay them out across the room. Who designs these rooms for hotels?! Good: the rain shower and wand were the easiest to use of any hotel I’ve visited! Breakfast was ok and only worth the price if unlimited buffet is what you want. Nearby local places were one-third the price with better coffee and options! All in all, we liked being there."
