    Didn't bother us but as it is very in the city heart there can be some noise, also you can hear a bit from the corridor

    The room was cozy with a great view, bed was great and staff very friendly

    Better direction for the 22€/day parking. We stayed in a parking house for almost 40€/day. From the description of the hotel I somehow missed the information that the bathroom is shared. Nevertheless, the bathroom was very clean.

    Very good location in the city center of Malaga. The receptionist was very nice, but Spanish is needed.

    We were moved from the hostel to an apartment. It was next to the market and was a bit noisy early in the morning. Not sure what made it an apartment as the only addition to a hotel room was a microwave, no kettle or plates etc

    Location in the town was excellent near to the centre.

    Nice and very well located, but maybe avoid around Eastern^^

    The only drawback was that I was there during the Semana Santa, so Calle Larios was blocked off for the Eastern processions. I am not quite certain how I was supposed to get in and out of the Hostal at that point so I went to bed without dinner out of fear to not be let back in later^^. No one warned me about this either.

    The location is very good, everything in the center is within walking distance. The room and the bathrooms are clean and comfy, albeit the rooms are quite small.

    If you are staying in Málaga for more than a couple of days, choose a large room - more comfortable.

    Right on Calle Marqués de Larios, Málaga's prime sopping street, this is a great location within walking distance of the historic sights as well as the port. The metro and cercanias urban train station are closeby, too. This is a great place to stay for a short stopover in the city. Restaurants, cafés and taparias are all close by. Everything you need is right there.,

    Shower was a little inconvenient because it was handheld, ONLY reason this is not a 10!!

    This hostal was amazing! Central location right on the main street and a 10 minute walk to any attraction. The staff were all so amazing - in particular there was a male Chinese employee who helped us check in (unfortunately we didn’t get his name), and he went out of his way to write down his personal recommendations and give them to us. We didn’t see him again after the first day, but if he reads this, we went to all the restaurants that were recommended and attended the flamenco show, and loved all of them! Thank you so much! The room was also spacious with air conditioning, and the shared bathrooms were very clean.

    Room was just a basic room, not much space other than the bed and a shared bathroom. Would of been nice to have a mini fridge and a kettle to make a hot drink.

    Pretty good location on the main street, still a little bit of walking to the beach or the other side of old town.

    A little noisy at the front of the building but not bad given it's location. Place is a bit aged but overall a very good option.

    This hostal is all about the location. Situated at the bottom of Larios street, couldn't be better. Small compact room with wash hand basin. Toilets and showers very clean. Friendly staff.

    My room at the back had a slight greasy smell coming up the courtyard well I think from the output ducts of one of the fast food places nearby - it's not the hostal's fault on anything they can do much about. I guess in the summer, the windows stay closed and the air conditioning is on so it doesn't notice.

    Everything clean and modern with comfortable bed and good shower (I had a room without ensuite) and nice people on reception. In an amazing location - the carnival passed right past the door! The guests with street-facing rooms would have been able to look down on it! On third floor with good lift. And there's someone on reception 24 hours.

    There wasn’t anything we didn’t like about the property.

    We’d booked for Hostal Larios for New Years Eve 2023 however as they were fully booked they had a large studio about 300 or so metres away which was excellent. 4 beds in it, a very large room with an en-suite shower and a balcony overlooking the market hall in Malaga. Very well located, easy walking distance to shops, bars, restaurants, marina. Spotlessly clean.

    The rooms were not very big, but good enough for us. Parking is expensive but that is due to the great location.

    Amazing location. Right near the boulevard and close to all kinds of shops and restaurants. 24/7 reception with very helpful staff. Clean bathrooms. Great value for money.

    Bed, as I mentioned above, is the big downside. The dark colour of the "bedsheets" was probably indicative that they are intended to hide the dirt. I had a room right in front of the reception and it was very noisy. For almost about an hour around midnight, there was stuff being moved around a lot. To make matters worse it was some plastic stuff (some covers probably) and the noise was painful for that period. Except for the bed, a broken bed lamp and this noise, its an amazing place in every other way. I dont mind going back to give it another shot. I will specifically ask for a room away from reception. I actually did ask with no success. I couldn't push much as I just booked a day before.

    Everything very clean, including the shared toilets, except for the bed. Excellent location. Very easy to find and check-in. Just the right size room with all the right optimal amenities.
