"Nice hotel in a great location. Hotel room was very clean and spacious. Staff was polite. They provided a nice little pack of items to begin stay, but was hoping to have coffee in room each morning, and that was not provided. Lots of shops and restaurants near."

Málaga Hotel Eliseos

10/10 Excellent
"The room was basic but had everything that I needed. One of those being a razor as I had forgotten to bring one! The cleaning staff came in every day to clean the room and replenish towels/ toilet paper which was great. The staff were really helpful and friendly. There was the option of air conditioning but I didn’t need it on as it was the perfect room temperature. The added bonus is the pool at the top with some sun beds which I loved. The hotel is central to everything, was a 10 minute walk to the beach one way and then 10 minutes walk to the city centre the opposite direction. There is the option of a buffet breakfast for 8€ but I didn’t use it as I went out early to grab and try some of the local food options. All in all a great stay and I will definitely be coming back!!"

NH Málaga Hotel

NH Málaga Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed seven nights at NH Malaga in October 2026. One of the best hotel experiences of my lifetime, and I've traveled for decades, stayed in hundreds of hotels. It's not the physical building that makes me feel that way, although the hotel itself was very nice - comfortable and very clean, fantastic breakfast and breakfast room, incredible location, wonderful lobby, etc. The real reason I feel this way is because of the staff, simply as good as it gets, as good as you can find anywhere. I don't think you can assemble a team as great as this without enlightened, progressive management at the highest level - so my compliments to them as well. Of I ran into a few problems that they helped me resolve, as well as helping with other small details and things that naturally come up when you're in another city. It was like having a team of friends that always had time for you. I can single out Alfonso, Esther and Nina, but there were more, including every single person involved in serving breakfast. You'll find no better operation anywhere. I'm currently staying at well-known brand-name hotel, in another major city in Spain - it seems quite ordinary and cold, compared to the warmth and professionalism at NH Malaga."
