to get started.

The view! The privacy! We were in a second tower with an amazing view! Our balcony was huge and private. Very special. We got the superior double room with a balcony.

Justine, United States of America

The architecture of the hotel is amazing! We had the feeling as if we were staying at a Moorish Castle! The garden and ocean view are wonderful. Very spacious room and excellent services.

An, United States of America

Nice location and fantastic rooms and walking in the castle is really nice. The reception helped me to call the assistant customer car rental company because I got flat tires. it was really big deal for me.

Abdullah, Saudi Arabia

A beautiful and historic property. A great place to relax.

Nicholas, United States of America

Robnkris, United States of America

Great looking building. Bed and pillows were fine.

Andrew, United States of America

Historic interior and exterior of hotel is super. Large rooms. Very nice old ancient walls exposed in garden. Super nice views.

Martin, Estonia

The room was super clean and very spacious. It had a beautiful big terrace overlooking the sea. The breakfast exceeded my expectations (they even had the soy/almond milk, fresh cooked pancakes). The castle is very beautiful, I think it makes a wonderfull wedding location.

Systemangel, Italy

The hotel is excllent, a real castle, I felt like a princess! Alllmin excellent condition, the staff is very friendly and helpful. I needed mobile internet so they called the shop for me and had everything arranged. A perfect place for someone looking for alone time or a romantic getaway. It is located on a hill, in a quiet area away from the noise and only within a 15-min walk from the beach. Definitely coming back some day!

N, Netherlands

The hotel was like a palace with mosaic bathrooms, spacious, high ceiling rooms & vies to really enjoy. Staff were very friendly & helpful

Terrible WiFi. This is so important to people in 2019. no excuse for not having it in the rooms and even the WiFi in the business centre was like 1990s dialup.
Stunningly beautiful old castle. Only eight rooms and access to large balconies overlooking the sea.

A stunning hotel in a free location for views over the coast. Room 3 was spacious with a big bathroom and very comfy bed. The double bed is two singles pushed together in case that bothers you. Hotel grounds are very beautiful. Is 30 mins walk into Malaga town centre, downhill there, uphill back. Easy to get a taxi for 6 euros if needed.

“I could have loved this hotel, if it had better WIFI and they offered meals other than breakfast.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
The free WIFI was practically non-existent (especially in the room, patchy around the hotel). One of the reception managers had poor English language skills which caused us some minor issues (our smattering of Spanish was better than his English) but he was trying to be helpful. The lack of a dining room for meals other than breakfast or a proper, staffed bar (it was basically a slightly more equipped extension of the room mini bar but in the reception area) meant that you had to drive or walk 10 or 15 minutes to find anywhere to eat or drink at any other time other than breakfast. Not many English TV channels.
The building, gardens and views are stunningly beautiful. The location is nice but about a 10 minute walk to any bars or restaurants. The breakfast was excellent. The room was spacious with nice decor and a large bathroom. The whole room was well equipped and the tea and coffee facilities was a bonus. Free safe in the room. Plenty of free on-site parking. Well stocked mini fridge with reasonable prices. If you want peace and quiet, this is the hotel for you. The staff are generally really friendly and helpful, especially the breakfast staff.
