Novotel Hotels in Malaga

everything is good including breakfast... the only thing that made us feel unhappy was the bathroom. drainage didn't work well.. water from the showerbooth was filled on the floor of bathroom and didn't go down well....

It’s been four years since we last stayed , due to covid etc. This must have been our fifth or sixth stay and it was great to see (and be remembered by some of the team, Gemma, Xzavi, Luis). We stay here because of the location , just 7mins to the airport, and a pleasant 10 min walk or so into central Malaga. On this occasion we had a mid evening arrival so I emailed for a restaurant reservation . In our room was a lovely chilled bottle of cava and a cake as it was my birthday. A lovely touch. Nacho on reception was delightfully cheerful and welcoming. We had a great room on the 6th floor. Comfortable and clean, it does however get hot, and if you leave the window open you can hear the street noise (not a problem). My only suggestion for the room would be a mirror in the main room and slightly more lights. There is a fridge which we used for some food purchases. You can take drinks upstairs and they are cheap, we always use the bar, you can talk to the team and learn great facts about the area. (Without Luis’ s tips a few years back our trip to Granada wouldn’t have been as good). The food in the restaurant was good and well priced , the restaurant is now on the ground floor a change since our last trip. Don’t forget a trip on the slide , a Must in this hotel!! There are lots of local bars and restaurants nearby , we will be back. Thanks to everyone for another great trip.

good sound proofing, lightproof window blinds, compact room equipment. just a short walk from train station, check-in was quick and efficient. will definitely stay again. lack of cloths hangers ( just 2) and an unfortunate placing of hooks just 50cm from floor to hang your shopping bags of something, you see that ppl desperately looked for additional hooks and took out those decorative metal plates. but its something that eventually will get fixed after time.

I booked the hotel as they outlined they had gym facilities and were close to the beach. The beach part is true however there is NO GYM. They have an “agreement” with a gym 30 mins walk away. I would not have booked there if this had been made clear. The staff in the bar were quite slow, maybe understaffed? On the up side the rooms were nice and clean and the Wi-Fi is good.

The service at this hotel was outstanding, I was really made to feel special. The building is beautiful, especially the marble staircase and terrace overlooking the sea. My room was very tastefully and luxuriously decorated, it didn’t have a view, but the price was commensurate for that. Overall the hotel gives an experience of mid tier luxury (not very very top level ala Bulgari hotel, but definitely premium). My biggest complaint is with regards to the gym and spa. The gym is ok, if small, has a squat rack which is great. But there is no locker room or changing area next to it! Any other five star hotel I’ve been to would have a luxurious locker room with a sauna and hot tub etc. Here there wasn’t even a place to change! I had to go back to my room and change into my gym gear the first time I went. Then there is the ‘spa’. Some hot tubs, relaxation areas and a sauna. Very nice, but a €25 EXTRA for guests!! What kind of a luxury hotel charges extra for use of the sauna?! Aside from this, I very much enjoyed my stay and would certainly stay here again.

The room is very big and the location is very good. After all, the business district and the beach are right downstairs. It's really good. But my room costs 400 euros a night: 1. There are really few types of breakfast, less bread, and less fruit! 2. The hotel only provides two bottles of water. If you ask for more water, you will be charged, which is very strange. 3. The quality of the bed is average.

Lovely staff and beautiful rooms in a good location. The staff were very obliging and the bed was so comfortable. The view however from our room was disappointing and looked straight onto a building site. The pool was also a bit misleading and was very small. The coffee facilities were not sufficient for two people as they gave only one sachet? Overall, I would stay here again.

We are currently staying here at the Romerito. We booked here as a budget hotel and knew it was away from malaga centro somewhat. When I read some of the reviews some people had said its near a industrial area. It's definitely not a industrial area but more like a residential area. We got a taxi from the airport which took 10-15 minutes and was €18 We were welcomed to the hotel entrance that was immaculately clean and we were given a prompt and efficient check in. Our rooms is a double bed and one single bed. The room is lovely and bright and perfectly clean. The room is cleaned daily with new towels. Note that there is no kettle or tea making facilities. But I knew this in advanced and brought a travel kettle. Having said this there is a cafe restaurant at the hotel that is very reasonable price and the drinks and food is good. Its open 7am-11pm. There is also a shop attached to the hotel with everything you will need. To get into malaga centro it takes a 20 minutes bus ride which you get directly outside of the hotel at a cost of €1.40 these buses run quite often. Overall if you are looking to do malaga on a budget I reccomend this hotel. It's a very traditional and pretty hotel with everything you need and helpful staff.

We stayed in 4 rooms as a group of 8 friends doing a speedy mini break in Malaga. The standard rooms were set up as twins as we requested and we all very keen and really well appointed. Great water pressure in the shower! All of the front desk staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The hotel is so well positioned for a malaga city break just steps from the Cathedral. We had lunch at Matiz which was tasty and even after a miscommunication due to a translation issue they were quick to correct the problem. breakfast was included and was simple and what you would expect - it would be nice to be offered the hotter options as we didn’t realise we could get those until after we had finished our last breakfast!. Our only real disappointment was on our last evening when we were going out for a special meal and wanted to have a cocktail on the roof top bar. We had left 45 minutes but the waiter (v curly hair) wouldn’t serve us at the bar and insisted he would come to take our order - despite telling us on 2 occasion he would just be 2 or 3 minutes (and serving others arriving after us) , it was 20 minutes later and we still hadn’t had a drink so left to go to our dinner reservation which we would otherwise be late for and had a cocktail there instead. It seemed a really disappointing thing to happen and left us very disappointed given the standard of all the other staff and service at the hotel otherwise. We would defiantly return but perhaps steer clear of the rook top bar.
