4 star hotels in Malaga

Great hotel. We were very impressed with the efficiency of the staff, cleanliness of the room and the public areas, quality of the food and service at the breakfast. We highly recommend the Barcelo Málaga and look forward to staying there again.

Great Hotel, Friendly Staff and very Welcoming. Rooms are excellently presented and Clean. Fantastic Location next to the train station and can get a taxi into the City Center or Marina for 6 Euros. Only 20 minutes in a taxi from Airport. Prices at the bar and the City as a whole are very reasonable. Great City break. Will be returning and booking in at this Hotel.

We were given a room with a door in between ours and another room. It was locked but the other room happened to have really loud guests and the door was absolutely not soundproof like advertised. We could hear their exact words and it did not feel like we paid for a private room at all. The rooftop is made to seem much larger in the photos than in reality. I will admit we came during a very peak period...

Friendliest most accommodating staff of any hotel I’ve stayed at! They are so wonderful! Food was great and the pool is a nice extra. Beds are extremely comfortable! Strong shower pressure and clean rooms.

Great hotel with friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are clean, spacious and have huge comfortable beds. The breakfast has a huge range of cooked food and cereals, along with an omelette station. The hotel has a rooftop bar and pool which is a great place to chill out (or rather get sunburnt). Stayed here twice and the only slight downside is getting into the town but its only a few Euros and...

We enjoyed staying at this hotel. All the facilities I needed were there. The rooms were of a good size; the bathroom was nice. From our balcony we could see the sea in the distance. The hotel is located right next to the train station. It is a 20-25 minute walk from the center of the city. Breakfast was excellent.

Amazing location. Very close from the shopping center, city center, port and sea. I would repeat again and again

Friendly staff and reallotjar good breackfast, but if you want to connect your devices to WiFi or work using internet or even a simple Skype, forget about it. The internet connection take ages to connect and once in on is that slow that I have to use my mobile data just to open the email inbox, no mention about surf in the net. I have contacted the IT service and the addressed me to the front desk...

Good hotel near the train station, about 15min walk from city center. Nice clean and personal is very charm but dont have restaurant,,,, just a room menu but very simple.

Very clean and lots of ametities! Great staff that speak English really well. Good place to stay near the center of town.

Beautiful hotel in central Malaga. Wonderful breakfast. I recommend you book online: online the room was €105 and breakfast was included- they said they would finish my booking for me when I arrived & it cost €165, breakfast NOT included!

I spent three perfect days in this hotel in Málaga. The staff is welcoming, attentive, A special thank you to Moises for his professionalism and kindness, which made my stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel!

I always come to this hotel for the summer holidays and for the Christmas in Spain. The location is fantastic, it is very to the main station of Malaga. I would like to say Thank you so much for the kind receptionists of Eurostars, especially for Mr. Moses. Mr. Mose helped us l lot since we coupd not speak Spanish at all. He was the greatest receptionist ever we met. Muchissima Gracias!

Hotel located near the train station. Comfortable room. Friendly staff. Standard hotel.

Right next to the train station, easy to walk. There is a TAPAS restaurant with a high Google rating downstairs. I personally tested that the food was not cooked before it was served. I was speechless. The service attitude of the hotel waiters was quite good and enthusiastic.

Hotel is fine. Clean looking which is nice. Rooms nice and large spacious. Small gym not much equipment better than nothing. Breakfast is excellent. Would stay again.

It's close to the train station, but well connected to the city center through bus and metro. The room is small but neat and clean. The problem is that it isn’t very well soundproofed. You can the water running when someone next room uses the tap.

Warmth greetings since first step into the hotel. Quick device was good and clear information. Al staff super active to help whatever you want. Breakfast is variety and comfy space to sit and start first meal of the day.

It’s a petty the management wouldn’t put the central air condition on because the room feels warm in the evening when I sleep unless I open the window and most of the time it’s loud outside. I don’t understand why the central air condition is on heating setting where the weather outside is getting warmer and I doubt that any room would need the heating option. The reception staff offered me an alternative...

Very modern clean hotel that is only a few minutes walk from the old town. Breakfast buffet is really great and lunch/dinner are also decent. The restaurant and room service people are very nice but the people at the bar need a bit more training in customer service. Try not to get the rooms at the ground level facing the back square since there are benches right outside the windows and the windows...

Lovely hotel, only stayed one night so far but in a good location. Short walk to the old town and clean, inviting environment. *Edit* During our stay it was my Mum’s birthday, the hotel was very kind and left a cake in the room. This was a lovely gesture until it was taken off of us (with only a few bites taken out of it) after it being in the room for less than 12 hours. Very bittersweet. If staying...

My stay at NH Málaga Hotel was delightful and exceeded my expectations. The location was perfect, just a short walk from the city center, and the rooms were spotless and well-maintained. The staff were welcoming and attentive, always ensuring I felt comfortable. A standout touch was the free water they provided to keep me hydrated throughout my stay, which I truly appreciated. The breakfast buffet...

Stayed here a few times now. Comfortable rooms, small but clean. Had a balcony this time overlooking the church. Couldn't eat here as we had our dog with us.

It's located along the coast and right in front of the sea, so the view was amazing. Malaga has over 300 sunny days a year, but unfortunately when we visited there was a storm so we couldn't enjoy the coast, but I recommend it as you can get very close to the sea. (It's a little far from the city center, but you can get there by bus.) However, the hotel walls are thin, so if you are worried about the...

fast and friendly check-in, modern room with coffee machine and a stocked mini-bar, rare these days. Breakfast was good and fair value 13e if booked in advance. Adequate parking nearby and the hotel has its own car park. Near the beach with plenty of bars and fast food but i did not find a proper restaurant nearby. Avoid the Asian street food place opposite the hotel

The hotel is a little far from the city center, but the beach is just downstairs and across the road, and you can see the sea from the hotel window. It takes less than ten minutes to get to the airport by taxi. The room is clean and tidy, but a little small.

Good quality in resonance with the Catalonia. Friendly staff.

The stay has been very good and pleasant, the rooms facing Pacific street are quite noisy due to traffic.

The hotel is close to the sea, but it is separated by a road, so there is no invincible sea view, and there are no shops around. Basically, you can only use the restaurant attached to the hotel. The room is ok, but the traffic is very inconvenient, so you must use a taxi.

Really nice hotel, good location if you’re travelling by train but about 30mins walk away from the main town.

Good location — just a bridge away from the old town, with department stores, restaurants, a supermarket, and a coin-operated laundry all within walking distance. The room layout felt a bit awkward, with unnecessary curves, and the toilet was very small and located separately from the bathroom. Daily cleaning service was a plus — the cleaners were polite. Staff weren’t particularly enthusiastic, but...

Excellent location and staff were amazing makes you feel at home

Loved this place . The rooms are good and comfy The staff are willing to help always at any time of the day All are welcoming I had some initial trouble in getting simple service like getting an iron box which left me feeling disappointed initially . But they did make sure everything was smooth during the Stay after bringing the issues to their notice The location is amazing .just walkable to cathedral...

100% recommend it , very clean and modern , staff were very lovely and helpful. 15mins walk from the soho and city centre .

Good location near the city center clean and the room was big staff friendly

What I will oddly point out that we liked about this hotel was that besides how fantastic the rooms were, we arrived very early to our hotel because of a late flight(2:30am) and we were greeted warmly by the receptionist who was very kind and helpful. I’m glad they lock the front entrance at night which made us feel safe during our stay

Great location. 15-20 min walking to the beach. Very close to city center. Our view was so nice, across the apartments. Room was not too spacious however enough for 2 people. Inside the building is so quiet and calm and euphotic. The personnel at reception are so kind and helpful.

Awesome hotel in great location, close to the city center and city beaches, very friendly stuff. Beds and mattresses are very comfy, rooms nice and clean, big enough. They also washed my shirts for a small fee (outside it was ~37 degrees Celsius ☀️). Clear recommendation from my side. I will definitely stay here again when visiting Málaga next time.

Great location, about 10 minutes walk from the old center and 15 minutes from the beach (La Malagueta). Also very close to the bus station. Friendly staff. The city view room was very nice; cleaning was done every day. Breakfast was good, a bit of everything, fresh fruit juices (not commercial like other locations). Nothing to complain about! I will definitely choose the Hotel ICON MALABAR the next...

Had an good stay with my mom. The room was clean, spacious enough for two people, and very nicely decorated. It had small balconies if you need fresh air. The service was amazing, the receptionist were all very helpful. The free bicycles were also very useful and fun to go around town with!! Would come back 💯

I simply loved this place. The front desk staff were all very good but special mentioned to Sergio who really bent over backwards to assist me and made me feel right at home. The rooms were absolutely gorgeous, clean had so many of the extras that you don’t often get in many European hotels. I don’t usually add hotel breakfast but this spread was amazing and Anthony (?) was on top of everything. It...

An average small hotel. Nothing special but not bad. Carpet in our room was worn and should have been replaced a while ago. Location is convenient to shops and restaurants.

A gem in Malaga Centro We returned to this hotel, having stayed there in January. Again, it was fabulous. The staff is amazing: in particular I must mention Ana who upgraded our room and extended a lovely welcome. Breakfast is lovely and the rooftop bar is quality. It is our go to place in Malaga Centro. Regresaremos pronto.

Lovely hotel in the heart of Malaga but on a quiet street. The room was fantastic with a great bed and shower. The rooftop bar is perfect for a late evening drink. The location is great as it’s just off the super tourist streets so it’s quiet. Loads of restaurants close by.

Great hotel! Fabulous hotel with wonderful, friendly and helpful staff. Room was beautifully decorated and very clean, front desk staff were always smiling and helpful and loved the rooftop bar and the friendly staff. Great location for the marina, old town and train station. Would definitely recommend

Great hotel, we arrived in the middle of the huge power failure in Spain! Light in the lobby and elevators working. Overall a very nice hotell with very kind and nice staff!

The Mariposa, Malaga. The Mariposa Hotel in Malaga is a nice place with clean good rooms , bathroom etc. The breakfast included in the room price ( if you wish) is quite sumptuous with hotel & cold food with a good variety of things as well. Though I couldn’t visit it , I was told that the rooftop bar was a good place for the evening.

Excellent hotel in a great location. The rooms are spotless, with nice big bedrooms that are tastefully decorated. The beds are very comfortable, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The hotel smells wonderful as soon as you walk in, which adds to the pleasant atmosphere. I’m very impressed and would highly recommend staying here!

Stayed 1 night and really pleased we chose here . Modern decor and spotless . Location is about 5-10 min walk from the main old town, and literally round the corner from the main train station from the airport ( takes 15 min) Spacious modem rooms and feels luxurious yet simple. We had breakfast which was a small buffet with all you would want . The Spanish omlette was particularly yummy . Highly...

Bed very good. Room looking good, very friendly employees. Good location. Breakfast small but at least ok overall. Room was not cleaned enough, i called up for housekeeping showed them the issues and they changed linen and cleaned again. Second day i found a small piece of cake in the room and a short letter about seeking forgiveness. Overall is a good hotel, i d recommend it. Also the city is very...

Great hotel, near all must see places in Málaga, great service, staff and excellent food as well. The room was comfortable and the super king bed was awesome!!! The only downside is the Nespresso coffee machine for breakfast. NB: Nespresso machines do not work for more than 3 people at the same time...

A lovely hotel close to the city centre and all of the sights. From the minute we arrived we were looked after and felt special. From the room upgrade with balconies and views to the fantastic breakfast. We loved our stay at the Soho Boutique Colon.

Great location and comfortable twin room as requested although hotel made it clear this request was not guaranteed. Maud service daily and fresh towels. Hair dryer provided. Enjoyed the double outlook to the front and side. We had room 308. Great room.

The check-in staff was remarkable, attentive, kind, well-mannered. We checked-in two hours ahead of time and there was no problem with that - even though we booked our room 20 minutes earlier. That 5 minutes with the staff was enough to know that the hotel would be incredible, and we were right. It was our last day in Spain and it couldn't be better, the stay really made our day - the service was top...

We stayed here for 3 nights for my 40th birthday. We were upgraded to a top floor room with amazing views. We were recommended this hotel by my brother and I can see why. The hotel was immaculate, the staff were friendly and helpful and it is in a really central location. We didn't eat in the hotel so I cant comment on the food. I would definitely stay here again. The only thing to improve the hotel...

I arrived late at check-in but the lady on reception couldn't have been more helpful. I had asked for a twin room as I was staying with a mate but there weren't any available, however she did upgrade our room. When we opened the door we were delighted to find dual aspect balconies with fab views over the harbour and the town. The bed was very big so no worries about sharing. All the amenities were...

This was our second visit here & can certainly recommend it. It's possibly in the best location in Malaga, next to the marina, shops, nightlife etc. The communal areas in the hotel are beautiful as are the bedrooms. Breakfast was very good, fresh & varied. All staff were interacted with were warm, friendly & helpful. What more can I say?

Room was nice good large comfy bed too. One accessible socket on floor, no shelves or drawers for placing any clothes or other items. Six or so hangers provided overall. Breakfast was quite limited, but apart from the cool/cold eggs and bacon and the low quality fruit juice the food was generally ok. Good location, lovely Staff.

A wonderful hotel, with marvelous views over Malaga and an amazing location in the heard to this great city. Parking right in front of the hotel, it was a fabulous experience, stepping out of the hotel and being in the main pedestrian shopping and dining area, near the amazing cathedral. Overall, an excellent experience!

Such a great place to stay while in Malaga—close to the airport and all the major attractions in the city! The room was impeccably kept, with excellent staff and top-notch amenities, including a rooftop bar. But the highlight for me was the fantastic views of the Calle Larios and the main plaza. The upgrade to a plaza view is definitely worth it—luckily, I got upgraded for free this time! 🚗 For those...

Great rooftop bar. Have not stye in the hotel but I go often to the rooftop bar with amazing views of the city!

I booked a nonrefundable rate reservation for two nights and unfortunately needed to cancel due to a family health emergency. I requested any sort of refund or future credit and the hotel was not willing to accommodate in any way. I understand that I booked a non refundable rate, so this is not a negative review, however others should be mindful that this hotel is strict with their rules and are not...

Fabulous hotel. Right in historic district. Great breakfasts. All walkable, no on site parking as this hotel is located in pedestrian area.

Spent three nights and four days here. April, 2024. First, the property itself is very nice. The staff is friendly, rooms are clean and modern, the breakfast is quite good and reasonably priced. Now the location, that’s where it loses stars. It’s very loud! Nearly 24 hrs a day loud. Every single night from about 6pm - 5am the surrounding streets, shops, and bars are filled with people and performers...

I haven’t been to Malaga for almost 20 years and this week this amazing city totally blew my mind. What a transformation. The new Harbour with its bars and restaurants are worth a visit in their own right but the total gem of the entire trip was the Hotel Larios. Amazing service ,fantastic boutique Hotel, the ultimate location and a fun rooftop bar to boot! I simply cannot stress to you just how clean...

We just visited the lovely terrace which has an excellent view. The teas and cakes were also good, but the experience was somewhat spoiled by a member of staff serving who didn't seem to want us there. We felt it was our nationality that was unwelcome as she seemed fine with the locals. Hopefully our experience was a one off as everything else about it as worthy of 5 stars

Had lunch with friends in the 3rd floor restaurant. It’s good staple Andalucian food in a pleasant setting. Service could have been better but it was busy. Children’s menu was the best in Malaga - lots of options for starter and main courses.

I had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant in Málaga! The view is simply stunning, and the wine selection was top-notch, making for a perfect evening. However, they did forget my request for a birthday candle, which I had mentioned both over the phone and through the app when booking the table. Despite this small oversight, everything else was fantastic, and it didn’t take away from the...

We only stayed for one night, at the start of our road trip. We had a very nice room, with all amenities that we needed. The view was special. Service lived up to the expectations that come with the brand. We had food and drink outside on the terrace and the quality of the food and the setting were enjoyable. We drove from the airport is twenty minutes and the hotel was easy to find. The only caution...

A lovely hotel with views over the bay. Staff friendly. Food is very good in the restaurant but beware the portions are big.

The location is beautiful, perched atop the city with wonderful views! The hotel offers good quality accommodations, amenities and meals. The rooms and hallways could use a little freshening up with a few modern touches to make the place more chic, but it is still very nice, clean and all that! I highly recommend for a few days.

Breakfast was from good quality and tasted amazing. Service was fantastic, they thought about everything there and tried their best to make the stay a great experience for us. Rooms are older but the beds are very comfortable and the sea view was beautiful. The hotel is right at the centre of Malaga, the best spot to stay at for everyone who wants to make a trip to Malaga and the sights there. Beach...

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The service was excellent, the staff were friendly, and the room was clean and comfortable. The only downside was a small water leak caused by the air conditioning. While it was a minor inconvenience, everything else was perfect. I would still highly recommend this hotel and look forward to returning.

After checking in I was upgraded to suite with ocean view as gold member of Marriott. Room wasn’t ready till 4:pm. Staff were amazing. Location is 10/10. Roof were great it’s get super busy at sunset. Will be back there for a longer stay. Thank you

A beautiful surprise awaited us at Check in. Very nice and helpful staff. Staff arranged everything we wished. A beautiful room with nice view and still clean. Breakfast can be better, more fresh vegetables expected for 25Eur. Excellent hotel location: 5 min walking on the beach through a beautiful promenade.

If you're planning a trip to Malaga, I highly recommend staying at this hotel. It's ideally located within walking distance of most major attractions. The rooms are spacious, clean, and the staff are exceptionally friendly. What stood out to me was their commitment to service, there's always someone to greet you at the door and assist with the elevator, which is a rare find these days. I want to extend...

If you want to feel hotel "Schick" from 90s this place is for you. On a serious note it delivers clean rooms and good location. Don't expect miracles.

Totally amazing hotel! Staff were great (especially Pepe) and the rooms were clean and spacious. There were also very fun programs throughout the day. I highly recommend coming here if you like having a great time!

The biggest plus to this hotel is the staff. The staff were friendly and helpful. Marta with the kids club is AMAZING. The minidisco she hosted the night we stayed was SO fantastic. She's so great with the kids. My daughter loved it. The rooms are the big downside. Easily the worst beds we've ever slept in at a hotel. The mattresses were so hard, the pillows flat and stiff. The room was pretty run...

Very comfortable large room with view of the beach. Excellent service from all staff who were friendly and helpful. Breakfast and dinner had an excellent choice with good variety and the food was delicious. Would return for a relaxing holiday

We had an amazing stay at Sol Guadalmar and can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome and well taken care of. The service was truly outstanding — always friendly, attentive, and willing to go the extra mile. The rooms were clean, spacious, and offered exceptional sea views. The staff were very friendly and the service was excellent throughout...

We arrived too early for check in so expected to put our bags in storage and head out. Unfortunately we arrived mid storm and were wet through, we were told that luckily our room would be ready and to come back in an hour which we did. When we came back, it still wasn't ready so we went to the indoor pool which is fantastic, not the cleanest but really enjoyable considering the weather outside. We...

We had a great stay at Sol Guadalmar Hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a modern, spotless bathroom. The hotel’s facilities were excellent, and the location right by the sea offered stunning views from our spacious balcony. The restaurant served delicious food. However, the beds made a squeaky noise, which was a bit distracting. Overall, a wonderful experience, and we’d consider...

Nice facilities, close to the center and to the main long distance train station.

Very good hotel, 7-8 minutes walk from the train station and bus terminal, and there are many supermarkets around, about 500 meters walk. All the staff are very enthusiastic. My back pain relapsed and I told the front desk that they immediately helped to remove the soft mattress. Today we are going to take the train to Barcelona, ​​and the medicine I brought needs to be refrigerated. When I asked the...

The front desk service attitude is OK, but they get a little impatient when asking more questions. They gave me a sea view room but it was all trees. Finally, they refunded me and gave me a side room. The experience was not very good. The breakfast was OK. The hotel toilet smelled. The location is close to the station but far from the city. There is a city bus stop nearby.

Rare in Spain, there are two staff members at the front desk. The room has a wide view. It is close to the train station.

I returned to this hotel which excels for its wonderful hall and cleanliness. Excellent breakfast with variety and fresh fruit. Highly recommended

The hotel is in a very good location, 8 minutes walk from the train station. The room is spacious and bright, but a bit old and simple. The swimming pool is on the first floor, not big, but the facilities are good, with sauna and bubble bath, very comfortable.

I went to the reception and asked for a piece of paper and a pen. Issued and recommended to take a coffee at the bar for two euros. everything is legitimate. Rescued - five points

Fantastic place, great facilities with a roof terrace and pool that rivals anything I've experienced before and great service. The only slight downside was the noise from all the surrounding rooms and the street 3 floor below, otherwise 5 stars

Professional and welcoming staff. Great location about 10 minutes walk to the centre of Malaga. Reasonably priced. Unfortunately it was too early in the season to use the roof top terrace bar and pool - maybe next time.

Nice and clean hotel with excellent service. The breakfast had a lot of choices, and I appreciated the fruits and vegetables a lot! A con was that the AC didn' t work at our room.

This Hotel does it's job. Dedicated service team. Friendly forthcoming. We have been here during a companies workshop. All in all good rooms. Fairly nice facilities and next to no serious complaints. I'd say that this is a very good location for weekend trips or short sightseeing stays. Bang for the buck ratio is 7 out of ten.

Reception is very kind and helpful. Excellent location. 5-10 min walking distance to touristic places. Room is spacious and comfortable for a family of 4 like us (young children). Interiors are a bit old style but clean. Parking is behind the hotel where you will need to make a big round in order to get there.

Great location to the airport, shopping mall and ikea. We only stayed one night but would definitely return due to its location. Staff were friendly, rooms were clean.

I stayed here in the beginning of April. I would choose this hotel again if traveling to Málaga. Room was in good condition and quite big. It had a nice terrace for sitting in the evening sun (my room was facing south-west). The breakfast buffet had bread, cheese, cold cuts, fruit, yoghurt, pastries, etc. No hot food, but the waiters would bring you eggs and/or bacon cooked to your liking if you...

I went to practice at the driving range with my friends. Its one of the most affordable in this area when it comes to balls. A beautiful location, but a bit noicy due to nearby airport runway. The staff in the shop were super friendly!

Good - close to the airport and beach, spacious room, nice palm tree view with golf club Bad - breakfast quality(it was worst experience at Parador hotel chain), Service at the cafe and restaurant (they cannot speak English and servers don’t have adequate rules each other)

One of the best Paradores we’ve stayed in . Huge rooms with a terrace plus table and chairs spotlessly clean , for a standard this was extremely spacious. Very good restaurant with lovely friendly staff especially chatty Antonio and the bar cafeteria tapas was excellent. Yes it was quite noisy with the aeroplanes but it is close to Malaga airport and they do stop flying at night, quite good fun though...

Wonderful resort, with spacious rooms, and lots if privacy around the resort. Right by the beach, and rooms lead straight onto the green are with sun chairs and pool. Will return next year.
