About this place Barceló Málaga

Barceló Málaga is a modern mainstream hotel built into the Vialia shopping complex at María Zambrano station, where the high-speed trains from Madrid arrive and the airport train stops. It is known for its design touches, including a slide between floors, and has a rooftop terrace. It is gay-friendly, not an LGBTQ hotel. The old town is about a 15-minute walk away, and the gay bars around Calle Casapalma and Plaza de la Merced are a little beyond that. Torremolinos, the Costa del Sol's gay hub, is a short train ride from the station. Google reviews average 4.5 from about 3,100 guests.

GREAT SERVICE AT BARCELO MALAGA We have been several times before and love coming back. As “My Barcelo” members we thoroughly enjoy the personal service that the hotel manages to provide, despite its grand scale. Eduardo at the front desk gave us a very personal welcome making us completely at home once again. He also arranged a bottle of Cava in the room and some treats, and checked in periodically to see if everything was still good. Yes, it was, and we will definitely be back!

I came here because it is a hotel hosting a conference, and now that I'm here, I see it is situated near a major train station and bus terminal, so there are plenty of city buses and the location is really good for getting to the suburbs. The breakfast was delicious too. However, the air conditioning in the room was a bit weak... lol
