Authenticity

You'll enter the hotel's historical building through restored facades from the 18th and 19th centuries. But once you get inside, you'll enjoy a theme that channels the area's natural environment with a green and blue color scheme and jungle wallpaper.

Location

This is an ideal location if you want to be where the action is. You'll be in the hip and trendy SOHO neighborhood, known for its bars and international restaurants, yet right at the marina with the modern Paseo del Muelle Uno and leafy Málaga Park at your doorstep. Other sites within walking distance include the Cathedral, Alcazaba, Playa la Malagueta, and Castillo de Gibralfaro.

Rooms & Bathrooms

Choose from basic rooms, standard rooms, and suites, plus an option for families with connected units. Generally, the rooms are a bit small, so choose a suite if you'd like more space. You can also book units with sea views and Juliette balconies. Keep in mind that all the rooms feature either bright blue or green decor, including wallpaper and carpeting, which might not appeal to everyone. 

Other Highlights

The hotel's rooftop terrace is definitely a highlight, with colorful striped sun loungers, an outdoor pool, and a lounge bar with some of the best views of the waterfront and castle. Enjoy a daily breakfast buffet that works for everyone, as it lasts from 7:00 am until noon and features a coffee bar. You'll also find a gym and lobby lounge.
