Staff very helpful allowing early check-in and bag storage after checkout with no charge. I left something in the room, which was attached to my bag when I came to retrieve it from storage. My room only had a window facing into the enclosed atrium, so no traffic noise, though people were walking past the window. Clean and effective air conditioning.

Malaga

The rooms are decent size and hotel is in good condition. Location is good, close to the train station and bus stop. However the beds were not comfortable and needs changing in rhe near future. Also the air-conditioning is so old that is barely works and being so hot in Malaga, this was very uncomfortable. For a short stay, this is ok however I would not recommend for longer stays.

Close to train station

I chose Don Paco Hotel due to its closeness to Malaga railway station. It is less than a five minute walk. We arrived way before check in time but our room was ready. The room was a decent size, clean and very quiet. There was plenty of hot water for showers. It is about a 20 minute walk to the Roman Theatre through back streets and parkland.

Good one

All in all the hotel is good. It has great staff and service, very happy with that. Probably the best aspect of the hotel. Not one bad experience with the staff. Breakfast is also good, it has what you would expect. The room was facing the street, and it can be a bit noisy, but that’s not something the hotel can do about, maybe better insulating windows? One thing that could improve would be a small fridge in the room, or an ice machine on each floor. That would help during the summer. But overall, happy with the stay, and would definitely stay there again.

A spacious and clean room and only 3 minutes walk from the train station. An excellent breakfast was available. The location was 15 minutes walk to the nearest beach in one direction and about the same in the opposite direction to Malaga’s main tourist attractions.

Stayed for one night because of its proximity to the train station. The hotel was within walking distance of the city centre shops/bars/restaurants. Only downside was that the room opened onto the atrium, so no natural light/air. For a short stay it does the job.

Close to the bus and rail stations.

Very close to the bus and rail stations but a 20 minute walk from the main city. Room was small but clean and modern and bathroom was small but well appointed, modern with a great shower. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on that.
