The Valeria is in the most perfect location. It’s literally just a couple of minutes walk from - and actually in between - the interesting and bustling Port/Marina with its cruise ships and superyachts, and the interesting and bustling historic centre with its restaurants, tapas bars, and beautiful old buildings…and also literally two minutes away from the Airport Bus Stop, and the hop on hop off bus stop. What’s not to love.. The hotel itself is lovely, with a ‘boutique-style’ feel, and friendly, helpful staff who do their best to look after their guests. Our room, a little like the one pictured, was beautifully and simply decorated, spacious, and comfortable, with tea, coffee and a kettle, and a fridge/minibar. The bathroom matched the room and had great showers. The bed was one of the most comfortable we’ve had anywhere, similarly the pillows, and we slept brilliantly. We couldn’t hear anything from other hotel guests, the curtains kept the dawn light out, and the aircon was almost silent. And even though the traffic noise outside was loud, the balcony doors were virtually soundproof. Must also mention the rooftop bar for its great views, great cocktails, and great vibe. Malaga is a great place..and we also had a day out by train to Cordoba to see the Mesquita - which is amazing - and which we didn’t book in advance, just bought tickets when we arrived. Highly recommend Malaga for a city break. And can’t believe there’s a hotel there that’s nicer - at such a good price too - than the Valeria. Thank you to all the staff
