Simple, basic hotel that does everything you need for a comfortable night or two. Great location in…read morecentral Malaga, only one block behind El Corte Ingles and about 10 minutes walk to the main train station. I turned up without a reservation and paid €39 for the night which I think is reasonable considering I didn't book in advance. The bed was very comfortable, the room temperature was controllable from a panel inside the room and there was a lovely hot shower. They obviously don't envisage people staying more than one or two nights as there is almost no storage space in the rooms. Free wifi is available and whilst it always worked, sometimes it slowed right down. I paid an extra €4.50 for breakfast, as I thought that sounded reasonable but to be honest, it's all it's worth. Cereal, yoghurt, croissants, pain au chocolat & toast with butter & jam. Plus some fruit which I didn't fancy. Would I stay again? Definitely. It's a nice comfortable place to stay in a central location but next time I'll go out for breakfast!!

The shower is basically a closet with a glass in the middle of the room, so don't stay here with anyone that you absolutely wouldn't want to see you naked. Toilet is located in another closet and the door doesn't lock, so ditto there. Not a lot of space, but the space you do have is set up well. Kind of reminded me of a cabin on a cruise ship. Located a walkable distance from the train station, shopping district and port area. All-in-all, it's a good choice for people wanting a place to drop their bags while they go out and see the sights.

Just a stones throw from the old city center and a short walk to the harbour from here. Rooms are nice and functional and the bed is of good quality. They clean the rooms nicely every day and the staff are very nice and friendly. Breakfast was included and it was quite ok. A decent choice of food on offer and there was something for everyone. They had really nice fresh fruit and breads each day :-)) The prices here are also quite reasonable and you get good value for money. There is underground parking and it costs €18 a day. Pretty expensive for Malaga for parking but it's secure. I will be staying here again in the future. It's our standard company hotel and so we more or less end up here. A good choice for a short stay in Malaga.

Between the BEAUTIFUL building, the RIDICULOUSLY luxurious rooms (seriously, look at the pictures…read moreon their website), and the to-die-for breakfast spread to enjoy daily as you gazed out over the mediterranean, this place is top-notch. During the week before and after our visit, we stayed in other 5 star hotels and resorts on the mediterranean, the dead sea, the red sea, and none of them hold a CANDLE to the luxury offered by Vincci Selección Aleysa (and Vincci is much cheaper, to boot!). The spa here was included free with our room rate (as was breakfast), and we partook every day for hours! If you don't decide on a room with two stories and a private balcony like we did, there's still excellent sunbathing to be had in the garden and by the pool and outdoor jacuzzi (both works of art, architecturally, by the way!). The small size of this hotel means they have time to cater to your every request immediately, and the grounds and rooms are kept immaculate. If you find yourself travelling to costa del sol, stay here. Stay here at least one night, and you'll cancel your other hotel and stay here the whole time, I guarantee it.

Just back from a four night stay here. I'd love to say that our experience was as 5-star worthy as…read moreothers suggest, but it wasn't. We were generally greeted with smiles all around, but the service we received didn't always match the manner in which it was given. For instance, much of the front desk staff seemed to have relatively limited knowledge of local restaurants, gyms, beauty salons, etc. We requested recommendations from each of these categories, among others, and were either met with quick but limited response(s) or internet-based searches/responses (the latter of which we could--and did--do ourselves prior to asking). Also, what "5-star" property doesn't provide q-tips/cotton swabs to dry/clean your ears?? I can't cite this Spanish hotel as the only one that didn't provide this otherwise common toiletry, but it was still a glaring oversight for these U.S.-based guests (if not others). Fortunately, the hotel purchased and provided some, but they were certainly not of a quality that matched that of the other provided toiletries. Another shortcoming relates to there not being a child-free (or meaningfully smoke-free) common area of the hotel. I get that this property caters to individuals, couples, and families of all kinds and tastes, but I also know that we paid a great deal to come here and relax away from the hustle and bustle (and smoke) of the relatively crowded boardwalk and beach that fronts this property. Although we had moments of that restful and relaxed atmosphere, we also had many that involved the running, screeching, screaming, splashing, etc. of children--all of which were most unwelcome by us and others (based on the reactions we both heard and saw) in the lawn area--as well as wafts of smoke here, there, and generally everywhere in the hotel's common areas (to include our private balcony and room when we had the sliding doors open). A glaring inconsistency related to the seemingly complete changeover of staff for the weekend. We arrived on a Tuesday and checked out on a Saturday and we interacted with many of the same individuals throughout the week (and were looking forward to seeing at least some of their faces and smiles upon our departure). What we saw were completely different faces--at the front desk and elsewhere--and no smiles at the front desk specifically. I'm not sure if some other issue was swirling when we checked out, but we didn't receive any friendliness, graciousness, or kindness from the three individuals who were at the front desk on our departure day. To make matters worse, we were handed "police documents" and were told we had to sign them--without any meaningful explanation of why we were being presented with and needed to sign such documents--and we were left feeling unsettled and unwelcomed (if not somehow criminal) upon our departure. It bears noting that we never were presented with or had to sign such documents in the three other properties we visited during our trip. Pros: Very nice property (2 pools, a restaurant, a water "experience" spa, etc.) Beautiful views (of the boardwalk, beach, ocean, etc.) Reservable sunbeds (at very least on the lower lawn) Large, roomy suites and bathrooms (we stayed in a corner junior suite) Outdoor space for many rooms (we had a nice sized balcony with two lounge chairs on it) Some very fluent English speakers (among other languages) Enjoyable breakfast buffet (with quite a few options, albeit only one juice option: orange) Cons: Mold stains in the shower (this should be recaulked or replaced with a material that doesn't mold) Separated/broken shower molding and frame (was fixed day two, but was unsightly prior to that) Not a non-smoking property (seemingly par for the country, but not enjoyable given the pricing) Minimal privacy between balconies (the partition could be higher and there is no noise barrier) Children running/screaming/jumping by and in the "green lawn" pool (there should be a child-free zone and the lawn area seems like an obvious choice) Lacking service in the "green lawn" pool area (we saw a staff member at most 2-3 times during several hours of lounging on any given day) Tiny and very limited exercise room (this "gym" is an utter joke: three cardio machines and one lackluster, if multi-use, strength training machine in a TINY room) Front desk hard to reach at night (we needed to call several times to receive response after 11 or so) Inconsistent service BOTTOM LINE: The hotel has many plusses, but equally (if not more) minuses. For the price we paid we expected a better all around experience and stay. Based on the same, we likely won't stay here again (and we'll think twice before considering any other Vincci Seleccion property).

Overall, we were disappointed with our recent stay at the Higuerón Resort. We spent four nights…read morehere and that was two nights too many. They advertise a rooftop pool but it costs a lot of money per person to use (over 100 euros). They advertise a private beach club but it also costs 100 euros per person to use. The pool that we could see at ground level from our balcony was empty and being refurbished - so unusable. There was one usable pool for guests included in the price of the room but it was very cold. There are many paddle ball courts which we saw being used every day from our balcony but they, too, cost a lot of money to use. Plus, the remote nature of the resort meant that, unless you take the commuter train to somewhere else, you are stuck away from other possible interesting things to do. The best parts were the staff (everyone was kind and helpful) and the fitness center. But we will not stay here again.

Upon arrival, security opened the door. I was greeted by the staff. They upgraded me to a port view room. To be honest, there were great views in any direction around the hotel. My room was a little smaller than I had expected but big enough to be comfortable. It was very clean and fresh smelling. The bathroom is mostly marble/stone. It could use some caulk refreshing. Overall, the room was great. There is lobby and rooftop bar and restaurant. The staff there were great as well. The hotel recognized by birthday and sent a card, cake, balloon, and wine to my room. What a pleasant surprise. That is going above and beyond and I appreciated the effort on their part. At night, the pool area turns into a roof top club with live music. Guaranteed to have a good time. I would definitely recommend staying at this property if you ever find yourself in Málaga Spain.

I did wander over to Puente Romano and Marbella Club for an even more upscale vibe that was only a 10-12 minute taxi ride away. Puerto Banus is another 5-10 minutes and you can catch a ferry boat to there from a marina promenade that is just a 5 minute walk from the hotel.

The hotel is right by the ocean, and our room opened to a balcony overseeing the beach. So needless to say, the view was AMAZING. The balcony is awesome to sit and relax and enjoy a drink. And the room is so comfortable and has very good amenities. The room features are controlled via a smartphone that can also be taken out and used for internet and navigation if needed. That was a pretty nifty thing to have around, so I thought it was cool. The shower is awesome and the water pressure is great. The toiletries are good and that's all I need to say about that. I also experienced the SPA. I had a deep tissue massage, and although it wasn't that deep, it was so relaxing and refreshing. You also get a pass to use the SPA facilities for the day, but I ended up not using that... since I wanted to be by the beach instead. There's hotel-only beach seating area with service staff available for food and drinks. We tried some appetizers and they were awesome. We also ate at the hotel restaurant on beach level. There was live music, which was awesome... although the sound wasn't really balanced, so we could barely hear the singer while we were able to hear the music just fine. The staff are super friendly. Happy to help, take pictures, provide service, whatever you need. The hotel also has bicycles available for use for the day which is great for riding along the beach. We'll definitely come back to this place when we revisit.
