Lock in a great price for Hotel Castillo de Santa Catalina – rated 8.9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Everything! The hotel is built on the ruins of an old castle. The views are to die for. And the staff is brilliant. I stayed there one night as part of my honeymoon with my wife. It was one of the best experiences (top 3) we have EVER had in a hotel. I think that says a lot because I travel for work and stay at least 100 nights per year in hotels.

Nasif, United States of America

Magnificent building on a hillside in a residential area of town overlooking Malaga and yet only 10 min by taxi to the Alcazaba. As an old mansion it has few rooms, which means you have a real sense of privacy. The rooms are large, comfortable and well appointed. Great bathrooms. There are many terraces to enjoy the views and gardens and the staff are attentive and helpful.

Mark, Colombia

The location is superb! Located across from the bullring and a few steps from the famous Puente Nuevo. The rooftop pool area offers spectacular views of the bullring and landscape beyond. We considered staying at the Parador down the street but choose this hotel based on a review we read and honestly I would stay at the Catalonia again. It’s less than two years old and the rooms are so chic you feel like royalty!

Bruno, Canada

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

THE VIEW!! gorgeous from our room. Room and bathroom was nice and clean.

Robnkris, United States of America

Andrew, United States of America

“A beautiful hotel with great views.”
- • Leisure trip

Some aspects of housekeeping and breakfast did not reflect the quality of the rest of our experience. Cups, milk and coffee sachets were not replaced when our room was made up and at breakfast items such as fresh fruit and pastries were not replenished. You could also hear staff chatting and washing up through the open door of the adjoining kitchen which, although it seems a bit picky, detracted from the atmosphere.
We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The hotel had a great ambience and the building was extremely interesting. Our suite was beautifully furnished and we had wonderful views of the gardens, sea and hills from all of the windows and from the terrace. The gentleman who checked us in was very professional and informative.
