Petit Palace Plaza Málaga

Check in took 10 mins as group before us and lone receptionist. A photocopy passport left in full view on counter,showing personal data when receptionist absent. Building's heart ripped out, for garish,claustrophobic,badly lit, poorly 'designed' interior. Bad lighting: I walked down 2 long corridors in total blackness. Little public space. Room cell like with touches of orange. Difficult to enter as door hung wrong way round. Bed less than 2m from corridor. Flashing lights on bath! through glass door made sleep impossible. Bath so tall only 6' person could easily step into shower. Wooden bed unbelievably noisy even if just sat on, so no sleep. Security concerns - desk girl the only staff all night. This is no 4*.

Excelent location. The hotel is quite new so everything is in perfect state. Nice bathroom.

spacious bathroom, clean room

no bar, no English channels on TV

use of internet and laptop, great breakfast, location: right in the centre and in quiet street, funky interior

We were allocated a non-smoking room that had a terrible smoker's smell. Were then given another room, which was less smelly, but still had a distinct smell of cigarette smoke. We decided not to make a fuss, but wish we had because it was almost unbearable. when we mentioned this to the staff, there was no apology, nor did it seem to be taken very seriously. Although the hotel had many great points I wouldn't risk booking a room here again, just for the smell. Sorry.

The location was ideal for sightseeing, shopping, and eating out in the evenings. I holiday at least once a year on Costa del Sol but have never spent time in Malage before.............I will be spending time there in future.

My friend and I smoke, so we missed having a coffee and cigarette in the room

Overall very good, clean & spacious rooms

Breakfast too expensive.

Everything was fine.Very nice hotel in the center of the city!:o)

Big problem with parking.It is possible to have a car in public parking for 24 euro/day,but it was always full in the evening.We had to wait at least 50 minutes to get our car there.Everything else was ok!!

it was very central.

bedroom for two one chair, no bar or food available after breakfast. hotel advertised tea coffee making facilites thaey were there but no water no cups area not cleaned spoke twice to front desk told it would be sorted but never was.

The centrality of the venue and the friendliness of the staff were the best points. The design and decor were quite funky.

The spa bath did not work nor did the wi fi. The toiletries were not replaced in sufficient quantity.

Brilliant location, right in the centre of town.

The bathroom door doesn't close flush to the wall so there is about a 2cm gap (not ideal for privacy). It would also be better if there was a folding door, or similar, between the double bed and the bunks in the 4 person room - rather than just a curtain.

Location, location, location!

They charged breakfast for my 1 year old baby (half price).

Excellent location, helpful staff, clean room, internet in room was fantastic

No coffee or tea making facilities in room, I love my coffee in the morning before starting the day and felt obliged to avail of the 10 euro (weekend) or 7 euro (weekday) buffet breakfast at the hotel to get my coffee before getting ready to go out for the day

Location is excellent, facilities great and all furniture/equipment is new. Laptop and free Internet access in the room is also an advantage.

Toilet seat was extremely dirty and was not cleaned even after I notified reception twice.
