9.0 / 10.0
If you want to stay in central Malaga, it doesn’t get much more central than this delightful boutique hotel! On a relatively quiet side street away from noisy bars and clubs, this lovely riyadh-like place is beautifully, but simply decorated, with top quality furniture and fittings. It’s just gorgeous. Don’t let the 2star rating put you off. That’s an irrelevance. Friendly staff are there to greet you until 18.30, after which it’s self-check-in, if I understood right. There’s parking nearby (10mins tops) We loved it!
I said “relatively” quiet. There is some noise from the street, and Ona Saturday that lasts well into the small hours. We could easily hear the murmur of much conversation outside at 03.30. But it’s not intrusive, unless you’re a very light sleeper, in which case I probably wouldn’t recommend this location at all.

The staff are fantastic and very friendly. The rooms were beautifully decorated and very stylish with an excellent shower and comfortable beds. We paid to eat breakfast at the cafe downstairs and the food was fantastic! Brilliant location for exploring the old town.
We were on the top floor at the front of the hotel and even with the double windows, the club opposite was extremely noisy on the Saturday night. There were lots of people outside making a lot of noise until about 3am and this did impact our sleep, unfortunately.

Very central hotel in Malaga, perfect for one or few nights stay. Very clean, but small rooms. The room was really clean, the employees very nice and helpful.

I especially liked the design and the ambiance, and the host who handled our check-in was extremely kind every time we met him.
It was clean, but that’s the only thing that could be improved.

The breakfast was really good we had gluten free bread and they also had pancakes which were amazing.
The noise at night from downstairs - probably because l am a light sleeper as my daughter didnt hear a thing.

Great location right in the middle of old town. Cute small boutique hotel with tastefully decorated rooms. Comfy bed.
Windows not soundproof. Everything else was perfect.

If you want to be absolutely in the center of the old town, we did, the location is excellent . The trade off is some city noise. It is a nice environment once inside , very low key staff . It feels more like a serviced apartment than a Hotel albeit there is a reception office and they have their own quite nice bistro / restaurant that serves nice looking food. Lift is good , we were on second floor, we had little balconies on our room , you could stand on and look into the apartment opposite . Room clean, bed clean felt secure . There is a nice little rooftop you can sit on .
There is some noise however this is because we chose this location absolute in old town. Its just a few nights so no big deal .

Reception hours. It would’ve been better to have someone to greet you for late check in and early check out.

Got up on the first morning at 8 to find that the breakfast place wasn't open. It does open quite late so we couldn't have breakfast on last day either. No 24 hour reception though that didn't really matter. Hotel is tucked away in a little backstreet (pedestrianised) and not particularly easy to find. Taxi which brought us from airport didn't know exactly where it was and it took us ages to find it. Instructions to take a taxi to the Plaza de la Merced with on foot instructions from there would help people enormously!

Great location, right in the heart of Malaga old town. Down a side street so very quiet both day and night. Beds very comfortable. Our room was on first floor and was great but our friends were in an attic room (room 9} and it was much smaller.
The aircon was flaky resulting in poor sleep. My hairdryer in the bathroom wasn’t working. Thankfully we had friends staying in the hotel too so I managed to dry my hair using the hairdryer in their room. Hotel replaced the hairdryer but unfortunately it didn’t work either.

The location is perfect- right in the centre of the old town. We had a ground floor room overlooking the street and weren’t impacted by noise at all. Very helpful staff. Would stay here again if in Malaga.

It was a nice decoration and great location
My room was in the first floor which means a room with no windows. This should always be informed before hand as it impacts the feeling and comfort. Also, you could hear the noise from the street late night and in the morning from the kitchen

Being harassed by telephone to give a time of arrival - very difficult when you arrive in an unknown city by plane, bus and foot. As it happened, we arrived well before the staff left, but I was then scolded for not having responded to the calls and text messages. I get that the business model doesn't permit a 24h presence, but that doesn't mean that the customer should be obliged to keep the hotel staff updated just so that they can get off work on time. Who is providing the service to whom ? Who is paying whom ? Who is on holiday ? Who is working ?

location was great! right in the main section just off the main path. literally a 5 to 10 minute walk to every thing
maybe the sounds at night, but not sure any thing can be done about it

Excellent location, very comfortable and clean with friendly staff.
Because of the inner courtyard style of the hotel (which is beautiful) you can hear other guests when they come home.

Exactly as advertised. Very cosy and safe. Very cute!! Highly recommend
Not much. Slightly on the pricier side but nothing crazy. Reception closes at 6pm

The location was perfect, even though the rooms aren't super big, they were stylish and very cosy. The staff were super lovely! It was very easy to get there from the Malaga airport
The sheets were a bit thin and scratchy, and some of the bathroom facilities felt cheap (the bathroom curtain was a tension rod which fell when moving it to close it)
8.0 / 10.0
The environment was calm fully, it was something with the atmosphere that made it a nice stay. Location was 10/10, smal back streets so if it’s enough with smaller room, but totally in center of old town, I strongly recommend staying at the hotel.
I liked the most, a window ro the road then it’s a 10 of 10 if you don’t need a big fancy room.

Nice, clean and modern room on top floor with direct access to the terrace.
At 3 am in the morning their were still hotel guests partying on the terrace. It would help to indicate that people are trying to sleep next door.

The hotel is lovely with a very pretty interior and a nice breakfast place that is part of the hotel. The location is also very good, you are right in the centre and very close to the main attractions. We had the room with the terrace, which was a very nice addition.
The staff of the hotel is also very nice.
The only thing that is “missing” is a mini bar, but we knew that it wouldn’t be there when we booked this hotel, so it wasn’t a problem for us.

The hotel is aesthetically pleasing and well located. Perfect for our swift stop-over in Malaga, although I can see how it can be used as an excellent base of operation for longer stays in the city. Clean, neat, stylish and affordable. An excellent choice.
The only real issue was that the breakfast was somewhat expensive, although this was to be expected. The quality was at least excellent. The other problem we had was that the remote control ran out of batteries after switching on the TV. Not a huge problem, as we weren't there to catch up on Spanish television. But it was a little bit awkward that there was no night-staff on hand to address the issue to, only the jour telephone number. Still, this was only a minor concern, which did not detract from the experience as a whole.

Noisy from the Tapas Bar oposit, the door when people come back, very small room, I was sleeping beside the window it was very cold. Attention when you shower the water goes outside. Price and quality do not match

Location central but quiet. Staff were lovely. Room clean and everything worked! Soft bed. Lift and room key system modern and efficient.
No door to bathroom. Light came in round blinds. No one at reception most of time so hard to get in when I arrived. Booked room with balcony but it had only inside windows.

Simple, clean, comfortable and well located for our overnight stay in Malaga.
No window in the room but we knew that based on info sent by hotel and fine for one night.

The location is superb. The street is really quiet in comparison to the surrounding streets. And once out of the door, you are in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city with plenty of bars and so on.
Also the design of the hotel is really pretty and the bed was comfy.
The communication with the hotel was kind of weary, when I asked for parking spots, I did not really get a reply and had to figure it out myself on the day of the arrival with the help of Google maps. Arriving by car in general is not really a good idea. The room itself was really small. We had the room with the terrace and it can barely be called a terrace as you cannot even see the sky from inside. Wouldn't book it again.
The water from the shower was rather in the cold side and never really gave you the feeling of having "a hot shower" which would have been lovely while temperatures at the end of March were around 15-18 Degrees.
At the day of the arrival there were two paper cups for tea in the room. Although we used them, they were not replaced. More environmentally friendly options would be a better idea.

Shower was incredible. The bed was so comfy. Breakfast was beautiful. Lovely lighting around the room that added to the atmosphere.
Only issue is that the quilt on the bed didn't smell very fresh.
