Top Málaga Centro Hotel Reviews

Málaga Hotel Eliseos

Málaga Hotel Eliseos

8/10 Good
"We had a lovely warm welcome at reception. The hotel is well located in a safe area with a 7 minute walk to the port and about the same to town. 15 to the beach. It's right next to the bull ring and if you go to the rooftop, you can soak in the atmosphere, hear the music and see the crowds. You can't see the bull fighting. The rooftop pool is lovely but it's small and the sun deck is equally small, so very crowded up there if you're lucky enough to get a spot up there. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The beds are comfortable and the curtains are great at keeping the sun out. We had breakast one day of our stay and there was a large choice of food, drinks and a good selection of hot drink. Good value. I can't really fault the hotel. We had a lovely stay. Definatley very happy to reccomend it and would stay again."
