"Would be nice to have been advised there are two entrances, we could access the building, then we noticed a second entrance about 25 yards away which accepted the entrance code. Beforehand, having been unable to access the building, we attempted to contact the host unsuccessfully via the methods advised.

Top Playa del Palo Hotel Reviews

Catalonia Molina Lario

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely gorgeous hotel, perfectly positioned to explore all Malaga has to offer - and there’s lots! We loved the rooftop pool area, the room was spacious and very comfortable and it was just a great stay!"

Only YOU Hotel Malaga

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was amazing and in a perfect location, we will definitely be back!"

Gran Hotel Miramar GL

10/10 Excellent

"👌"

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Malaga Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room, very friendly staff, rooms are extremely small with small open closet, there is no refrigerator der inside the room which was a bit problematic in this very hot weather, breakfast was lovely, distance is great you can walk everywhere you need to go, very well located also there is 2 big Shopping Centers within a walking distance and train station that is inside the closest mall. Free street parking from 6 pm to 9 am every day. After that you can pay at the parkometre which is right in front of the hotel for cheap. Perfect for one person if you wanna stay for 2 to 3 days. Overall very good for the price."

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."

Villas Pinares de San Antón, Saltwater pool, Sea, City, Mountain Views

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect"

Hotel La Chancla

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in a fantastic location right on the beach. Bed was very comfortable and the sea view was beautiful. The restaurant downstairs was really good and staff were helpful. The only downside was no fridge in the room which would have been useful to keep bottles of water cold. Also, the sunbeds on the beach cost extra rather complimentary and they were quite expensive."

Be Mate Málaga Playa

10/10 Excellent

"What an incredible find! We had the best stay at Be Mate Playa with our 5 year old daughter. The apartment had everything we needed and we absolutely loved the neighborhood. We definitely hope to be back!"

La Moraga De Poniente Málaga Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a nice 3 night stay here in a private bedroom (room 1) with a cute little balcony. My room was clean & had plenty of space to put my belongings away & keep things organized. I utilized the kitchen (stove, fridge & freezer). They keep it well stocked with dishes & cooking supplies. The staff helped me with transportation (there's a bus stop about a minute away that is very helpful, especially when there are no Uber or Bolt drivers to be found). I also rented a bike one day & explored the city & along the coast, which was a nice bonus. There are a bunch of cute restaurants & bars right in the area & it feels safe to walk around solo at night. I would recommend this place to stay."
