Great location
Chose this hotel due to its proximity to the train station. A quick 5-6 minute walk. Also only about a 20 minute walk to the tourist areas. I was very pleased.

We love Malaga and wanted on this trip to be near the mainline station for an early train ride so this hotel was perfectly placed and a short walk in the morning for our early start. Not much around the area for dinner options but we tried the big hotel at the station and it was fantastic

Small but nice spot in central Malaga. 2 mins to train station and surrounded by restaurants and shops. Room was clean and comfortable. In room safe a nice touch. Breakfast buffet was plentiful with lots of choice. Great spot for a short stay.

A spacious and clean room and only 3 minutes walk from the train station. An excellent breakfast was available. The location was 15 minutes walk to the nearest beach in one direction and about the same in the opposite direction to Malaga’s main tourist attractions.

Transportation is convenient, but it is an old building and there are ants in the room, so it was difficult to sleep due to anxiety.

We arrived earlier than check in time and the reception were very helpful in allocating our room early. This enabled us to freshen up before going into the city.
Our room overlooked the inner courtyard which was a very quiet location and suited us more than one at the front which may be noisier due to traffic.
The Hotel is about 20 minutes walk to the city centre, however is only minutes from the train and bus station, a very good location for us.
The buffet breakfast was good and the staff friendly and attentive.
We checked out after breakfast but we were able to leave our luggage until about 16.00 when we made our way to the airport. Reception staff were very helpful.
In conclusion the hotel is at a good location for public transport, it is comfortable and the staff were really friendly and helpful.

Very good hotel near train station
This was my third time at this hotel. The staff at the reception is great and the rooms are impeccably clean and newly renovated. The location is near the train/bus stations but no noise can be heard in the rooms. Therefore, one not only is at walking distance from the main attractions and beaches of Malaga but can also take a coach or train to other nearby destinations such as Granada, Ronda or Antequera without stress
