Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Head up to the roof terrace to find the hotel’s compact outdoor freshwater pool, framed by sunbeds and parasols. It’s a relaxed spot to cool off between sightseeing sessions, soak up the sunshine or enjoy the city skyline views.

The rooftop pool is usually open between early June and late September, but dates, opening hours and services can change with the season and weather conditions.

While there’s no beach right on the doorstep, Malaga’s city beaches – including La Malagueta and La Caleta – are an easy taxi or bus ride away, so you can dip into the sea whenever the mood takes you.

Spa, sports & wellness


This is primarily a city-base hotel rather than a full-scale resort, so the focus is on comfortable rooms and handy services over extensive leisure facilities.

On-site you’ll find a reception with luggage storage, and common areas with free Wi-Fi where you can plan sightseeing or catch up on emails. Beyond the hotel, Malaga offers plenty to keep you busy: art galleries (including the Picasso Museum and Centre Pompidou Malaga), historic landmarks, food markets and waterfront walks.
