I stayed here for 3 nights, and was very pleased. The hotel is very well located - a short walk from the Centro Metro station, (from which you can easily get to the airport, or the main train station for intercity trains to places like Seville). The check-in was very professional, and I got a nice room at the front of the hotel on the 7th floor.
There was a nice view out over the dry river bed, and towards the shopping streets on the other side of the river bed.
One of the nice features of the hotel is that the baths have whirlpool jets in them, so you can pour in lots of shampoo and have a whirlpool bubble bath when you come back after sightseeing. The TV had about 40 channels including quite a few English language ones (BBC news / Bloomberg / CNN).
Breakfast was very good - and a very friendly and helpful lady looking after the breakfast room with a cheerful welcome each morning. The selection included hot scrammbled eggs, sasaughes and fried mushrooms, as well as a wide selection of cold cheeses and meats and cakes.
The giant El Corte Ingles department store is a few blocks away from the hotel, and in the other direction is the main downtown part of Malaga city.
I would reccomend this hotel for anyone going to Malaga on a business trip, or short break. And i would definetly use this hotel again.
