Barcelo Malaga

"This was our 3rd stay at the Barcelo Malaga and again we had a great holiday. We booked a Junior Suite for 8 nights, room 816, and it was just as excellent as our last stay. We received a complimentary bottle of Cava and a welcome note indicating that they knew we had stayed previously. It was my birthday during our stay and we were surprised by another bottle of Cava and some cake. These little touches create the feeling of being valued guests. The room was great. The bed was so comfortable, the shower excellent and housekeeping standards were high. Breakfast was most enjoyable with a wide variety of food. The Barcelo is our go to hotel in Malaga."

"Stayed here last week with my husband for 4 nights and it was great. 2 min walk from the train station which was only an 8min journey from the airport. Loads of taxis outside the train station and only €5 max to get to the cathedral which was a very central point to explore the city from. Hotel was very comfortable, we had a deluxe double room, bed was huge and comfy and ac was excellent. Great shower too. Bar staff in bar downstairs were so friendly and polite, breakfast staff the same. Breakfast was delicious, plentiful and fresh. Only complaint was the bar person at the pool on the day we arrived, Enrique, he was most unhelpful and in fact very rude when we ordered some food and drinks. The rest of the staff for the rest of our stay made up for this. Great location and Malaga is a beautiful city, compact, clean, safe and overall an excellent vibe. Would highly recommend"

"This hotel is great for sight seeing in Malaga, with options to walk in or catch the underground easily from nearby in the shopping centre. Equally easy access to the airport too. The superior premium room has very comfortable beds, is very clean and quiet. Towelling robes and slippers are included too and a vertical steam iron!! There are free drinks in the fridge but we weren’t aware of this until we asked at reception on our last day.. and then had to go and get a bottle opener from the bar..they aren’t replaced free of charge once used. The Lavazza coffee machine was excellent. Not in the centre but there are a good selection of restaurants nearby to enjoy if you don’t want to go back into the centre for an evening meal. The pool is smaller than it looks on the photos and towels are only available once you have paid 20e at reception . Plenty of sun beds but obviously the sun isn’t always on them so choose your time of day to enjoy them wisely or just enjoy the roof top bar and views."
