Situated in the heart of the Old Town within walking distance of Malaga’s sights, and with safe underground parking just around the corner, this hotel ticks all the boxes. The friendly staff, the great breakfast and the comfortable room made our stay very pleasant indeed.

The hotel employees are highly professional and concerned about their work, those who clean the rooms, Patricia and María Carmen at breakfast and those who attend to the folder, like Jesus, are all excellent. Together with the good work and the excellent location, the hotel shows a category higher than 2.

Ruben United States of America

Carlos V has a superb location next to the cathedral and around the corner from the Roman Theater and el Alcazaba. The rooms are plain, but adequate. The lounge near the breakfast area is comfortable and rarely used.

Denalidigs United States of America

The location is perfect for seeing the historic center of Málaga, and it's an incredible value. Very clean with friendly, helpful staff.

Lisa United States of America

The location one block from the Alcazaba and two blocks from the cathedral makes the Hotel Carlos V a great place to stay.

Denalidigs United States of America

The location was perfect and right in the heart of the city and close to all the attractions! Plenty of restaurants and bars within few minutes walk.
