Hotel Costa Málaga (Adults Recommended) by Pierre & Vacances
Ocean was visible from room overlooking pool downside the beds creaked every time you moved constant smell of cigarette smoke from other balconies and weed so had to keep patio doors closed

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Malaga Centre
Modern hotel. Overall very good. Rooms adequate for short stay but bathroom small and glass partition meant not much privacy. Could have done with bedside table / drawers. Extra shower mat would have been useful, as washbasin in main room not the bathroom.

Holiday Inn Express Malaga Airport by IHG
The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay, which I really appreciated. The room was also reasonable for the price – clean and comfortable enough for a short stay. However, the biggest issue is the location. The hotel is extremely far from the airport, so it really shouldn’t be described ...
