The best place for wonderful views of the city center and the water. The castle is right behind the hotel so you can walk the path to the city center. Breakfast was wonderful, rooms were clean and everything you needed for a stay. Only draw backmis the beds were not that comfortable, but for two nights it worked.

Couldn’t fault our recent 3 night stay, amazing views, lovely hotel, great food, friendly staff, very comfortable bed, huge room, nice and clean, plenty hot water and toiletries. Wouldn’t hesitate to go back. Easy walk into town and more of a climb back up but perfect for walking off dinner.

Economical, immaculate, comfortable, state of the art bathroom, electrics and furnishings. Above and beyond all our expectations. Good breakfast option able to add to room rate. cannot comment on lunch or dinner time dining experience as did not dine for those. If traveling with multiple luggage, only accessible to end of driveway with vehicle larger than mini van. 👏👍

A charming hotel overlooking Malaga. Large comfortable room with balcony overlooking the city on the top of Mont Gibralfaro. Good size pool but no pool bar. Hotel has a well regarded restaurant plus a pleasant cafe/bar and terrace. City is reachable on foot but we used the local bus and taxis. I would recommend for a quiet location but not for a lively city break. Large car park if touring.

Honestly not great. Hallways quite dingy. View was terrible from the room even with making a request months prior to check in for a higher floor. Extremely noisy, can hear everything above us. Pool does not look like the pictures AT ALL. Not worth it.
