Hotel del Pintor

A very nice hotel in the heart of downtown area. Everything is accessible by walk and you get to absorb all that Malaga has to offer. The hotel is well maintained and the front desk staff is super nice. The housekeeping staff is perfect in their work. Everytime my room was cleaned, it was like looking at a masterpiece. Hats off to the staff in keeping my room looking like the way I got it at the time of check-in. The room is a tad small for a couple but we were able to manage. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a perfect stay on a budget.

Hotel was fine seemed like a good location however I was mugged 10 mins away from hotel at 5pm in the evening still recovering from the injuries stocked in my head knocked unconscious so who knows staff at hotel were very sympathetic etc but I will probably never go back

Good value for money. Room small but had the essentials. Breakfast in the cafe over the road but you can choose to take it in your room for a charge. Breakfast was not good. Found an insect crawling over the toast with Serrano ham. I would stay again but on a room only basis.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.. We arrived on January 1 at 7 pm to find that they did not have a room for us, because they had an "electrical problem" and that they could not find an electrician to fix it. They said we had to go to another hotel, We had of course guaranteed the room by credit card. This was clearly a case of double charging! They told us to go to this other hotel but we had to pay them for the room at THEir hotel first. They refused to show us the room that had the problem. And there was no manager or anyone to discuss this with. The receptionist also refused to speak in English teliing me that I should speak Spanish. The problem now is that they charged me twice, first as a no show on my guarantee credit card. Then on the second card when they forced me to pay them before going to the other hotel! I have spoken with Hotels.com but they have not been forthcoming in calling me back and following up.

The room and hotel is impeccably clean and well maintained! The location is great for access to museums, restaurants, shopping, walk to the beach, the harbor side, access to public transportation. The front desk staff is friendly and and helpful. My room faced the main street and I was only one floor up from street level so during this holiday weekend (the locals celebrate late throughout the night), I could hear a lot of street noise. But the hotel does have good black-out curtains, and double paned windows, so that helps promote good sleep. A day trip to the Caminito del Rey is a must. The staff can sell you a ticket (it guarantees entrance on that day), and you can go on your own.
