Hostal La Palma is a great place from which to view the heart of historical Malaga. The lady who runs the hostal is a warm, friendly and interesting character. The hostal is clean and comfortable and perfect for a short stay in the beautiful city of Malaga. Tidy little rooms are complimented by a fully fitted kitchen and a fabulous... More

Great location, beautiful room, exquisite woman owning and operating... Everything extremely organised, mountains of fliers and brochures for all kinds of attractions, not just the obvious tourist traps. The owner spends a good 15 minutes guiding you through the rooms, even gives you a mini map on a business card with the number of her cell phone which she wears... More

I am very happy and received alot more than I was expecting. Service and attention were always more than considerate and prompt thanks to Carolina (owner). She helped with translations for my flights, laundry, additional stays etc. All the rooms and place is cleaned everyday as i witnessed. Location wise, can not ask for better. It is right in the...

The room was very clean and had everything we needed with no bad surprise (TV, small fridge, bathroom), although it was a bit small. The balcony was also small but very nice to have! What made our stay at Hostal La Palma an extremely pleasant one was the friendliness of the owner lady. She smiles, she helps, we felt very... More

I was only in Málaga for one night and found La Palma late in the afternoon, after being pointed there by another hostal. I was impressed. The lady on reception (Cristina, I think) was very kind and friendly. She spoke a very clear and understandable Spanish (plus also speaks English). Location is spot-on, too. Right in the centre of old... More

I staid here for 4 nights and must say it was a great surprise. It's a low budget hostel... but feels so safe and calm, and the friendliness and helpfulness of the lady at the reception is second to none. Great value for money!

I really wasn't sure where to stay in Malaga, so I decided to try something cheap and cheerful. Problem was, it was only cheap. In all due respect, however, much of this came down to the fact that the building the hostal is in is being renovated. That meant that the entry foyer to the building and the stairwell were... More

Very clean rooms with sink and very clean common or private bathroom. Most of them have a (sunny) private balcony. Very well located: close to the harbour, the bus stops on Alameda Principal (also for the bus to and from the airport), the market, shops, restaurants, cafés, bars and the main attractions of beautiful Malaga. Caroline, the friendly owner, will... More
