The room and the hotel looks very nice. The greeting was extraordinary, thanks Lució, your welcome made our day! The breakfast is very nice with lots of coffee and love. I really do recommend this hotel for you. It's a hidden gem, very close to the beach. Also, don't miss the little pub/restaurant almost in front of it, they serve very nice meals.

Brian, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location-only a few minutes walk to the beach, with the hotel providing beach towels and an umbrella. Breakfast was delicious and very filling. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I would stay here again and recommend to others.
Jeffrey, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay close to beach

Excellent renovated hotel with about a 2 minute walk to the beach. Room was very quiet also. They provide beach towels and umbrella also. We had room 202 which is the best front facing room as it has a large balcony with chairs.

Excellent location close to beach

Very nice hotel with a 2 minute walk to the beach. AC and fan were great. We had the room with a large balcony [202] which was nice. Shower and bed perfect. They also gave us beach towels for the beach. Food and grocery store very very close also. Also a very quiet hotel

Rosa, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Friendly little hotel near the beach and 15 minute walk to old town. Unfortunately sun terrace was closed for maintenance for now and as we had no balcony in our room, it was a bit of downer.
Arto, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the breakfast with fruits and bread changing each day. I would give this hotel 5 stars except the shower didn’t work for the first two nights of our stay, which was disappointing after a long and tiring journey.
Julie, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a lovely comfortable hotel in a great location for walking to the beach, restaurants and the port. The breakfast is the best we have offered during all of our travels over 7 weeks in different cities in Spain! The staff members are friendly and always helpful. They take pride in their hotel. This is our second stay and we will definitely be back!
Barbara, 3-night trip

Hotel deco is of good quality. We love the rooftop resting area. Breakfast service is great!
Wenqi, 1-night trip

Other than the AC dripping into a container all night, it was perfect.
Stu, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

10/10 Wonderful stay at Hotel California during our first visit to Malaga. The hotel is beautiful, quaint and welcoming. The rooms have been updated and our particular room was quiet. The breakfast each morning to start the day was absolutely amazing served by a very kind and helpful staff. 5-minute walk to the beach! We will definitely be back! Highly recommend!
Daryl, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quirky and in a great position, about 15 mins pleasant walk into the city. Room was quite small and basic with no view, but it was fine as we were out all three days. Breakfast was the highlight. No buffet, but the coffee and selection they bring you is fabulous. Would stay again.
Angela, 3-night trip

Two days on the beach

Two nights and this hotel is almost on the beach, great value. Very welcoming and attention to detail
Philip, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice hotel. More than 2 stars. We had room with balcony 2 nd floor. Very god service and everything you want for breakfast served at your table. 20 min walk to city centre and only a few min to the beach. Air con and a fan in our room. Fridge and water boiler + coffee and tea in the room. Will absolutely stay here again.
Laila Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I’m so glad I found this wonderful little hotel which is both quirky in its decor but wonderfully modern in its fixtures and fittings. The breakfast is fresh and delicious. For us the location was perfect - just 100 metres from the beach and local bars and restaurants and yet the centre of Malaga is only a 15 minute walk away. Finally, the staff are welcoming, helpful and very friendly and we will definitely be staying here again the next time we visit Malaga.
