Very quiet hotel. Great breakfast options. There are several tile steps going up to the property but it is an older building. Very updated interior rooms. Clean and spacious

Autentisk, koselig lite hotell med sjel i et hyggelig strøk av byen! Veldig hjelpsomme ansatte, rent og hyggelig rom men nytt inventar, god seng. Rommer var imidlertid ikke særlig stort, men det fungerte fint for noen dager.

Hyggelig sted, gide senger, men lytt mellom rommene - spesielt ut mot gangen.

Super clean and perfectly located within walking distance of both the Alcazaba and the beach. The receptionist, Gonzalo (hope I’m spelling it correctly), was very kind and went above and beyond to help us resolve a parking issue. The only downside was that the elevator was out of service during our entire two-night stay, so we had to carry heavy luggage to and from the third floor.

Très bon accueil et personnel accueillant et disponible. Le parking est assez difficile à stationner.

Cozy hotel with great atmosphere. Close to the beach and within walking distance of the center of the city. Staff is really great.

Savnede en sikkerhedsboks på værelset som man kunne efterlade sine værdier i. Og så var der ikke pladser og service nok til alle i morgenmadsbuffeten. Jeg måtte komme tilbage en halv time senere for at få plads,og så var der ikke mere rent service. Det skal siges at der kun var en på arbejde i køkkenet,som stod for opfyldning af mad,opvask,afrydning og opdækning.Hun kunne ikke følge med.

Fair for two stars

Clean & good value

Clean and comfortable. Room was nice. will stay here the next time I'm in Malaga. Ancient telephonic kit was fun..

Das Hotel hat eine charmante Ambience. Mein Zimmer war sehr sauber. Die Mitarbeitenden waren alle sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, mit Humor. Schön, dass ich eine Dachterrasse nutzen konnte. Das Frühstücksbuffet war fein und gepflegt. Ich würde auf jeden Fall wieder buchen!

Hotel Review – BYPILLOW California, Malaga Stay: 9–11 January 2026 The hotel has a very friendly and welcoming staff, which made the stay pleasant from the start. It is centrally located, with easy access to the city center, the beach promenade, and great walking routes nearby. There are plenty of restaurants in the area, as well as a minimarket and a pharmacy within short walking distance. However, the rooms were extremely noisy, with very poor sound insulation. There were no ventilation vents in the room, making it impossible to get fresh air without opening the windows, which then let in significant noise from the busy, traffic-heavy street outside. Although there was a heat pump/air conditioning unit, this is unfortunately not a replacement for proper ventilation and fresh air. The bathroom layout was poorly planned. The placement of the bathroom furniture made it almost unusable and very impractical. Breakfast was very minimalist and quite limited compared to expectations. Overall, the hotel has a great location and kind staff, but the lack of soundproofing, fresh air, and functional room design significantly affected the comfort of the stay.

Fint lite hotell med hyggelig betjening og enkel frokost. Ikke langt til stranden :-) Kommer gjerne tilbake!

The room was very clean, the hotel was relaxing and the staff very friendly. The breakfast was a little limited but the coffee and fruit juices were good. The roof terrace had lovely views. Would definitely stay again.

Hotel in posizione tranquilla, personale gentile, stanza molto pulita, buona colazione

Really enjoyed our stay at Hotel California, we were welcomed by a very helpful staff member. Though our room was on the small size it had everything we needed with a very good sized shower. There is parking on the road outside the hotel but be warned you need coins for the parking meter. The location was great with an easy stroll down to the front. We really appreciated the honesty bar enjoying a bottle of wine for 9 euros on the patio on our return after dinner.

Ambiente, Zimmer, Frühstück, Personal - alles ausgezeichnet! Viel Liebe zum Detail!

Really lovely hotel, with lots of character. Clean and comfortable, with a Smart TV, which is always good. Only slight snag was the 'soundproofing'....it was actually that quiet!

Staff

Staff was stupendous . Ambiance was quaint and her. Clean , amazing .
