Hotel Costa Málaga (Adults Recommended) by Pierre & Vacances
8/10 Good
"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"
"It is at the train station which is good if you are traveling a lot - it is in a good location but a bit far from the good restaurants and things to see.
It was good for me as ı prefer to walk a lot. "
"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 as an “airport hotel.” Even if you take the bus at night, you still have to walk quite a long distance before reaching the hotel, and the route can feel quite isolated and uncomfortable late at night.
One thing that does deserve praise is that if you take the bus, the hotel can reimburse the bus fare if you ask at the front desk, which is a thoughtful and helpful gesture."
"It was a lovely stay, super friendly reception staff who were very helpful. Easy walking distance from everything. Rooms were a little dated but very clean and the balcony was lovely. "
"Excellent location next to Atarazanas Market and bus lanes.
The room and property were in excellent condition. All the windows are sound proof but we could hear the conversation from the next door guests. "
"We were there 7 nights. Our room was cleaned each day. Overall the place is nice and upscale. Stayed in building 2 overseeing ocean and pool. Pool areas are not big and don't have lots of loungers. Beds were a bit hard as I woke up sore. Lobby is nice. Staff was overall ok but our stats in other RIU properties on other countries seemed a little more friendly at the bars. Mayce this is just cultural. We were there in late February. Perfect temperatures to explore. Lots of older folks with walkers or canes. Nice to see the older generation still traveling and better than loud spring breakers. I wouldn't have liked staying in the building behind the lobby. Too far from the ocean, small pool area, with no views. "
