This place will exceed most people's expectations. A real sense of style, giving it a Radisson or Park Plaza sort of feel. OK so a close look reveals everything seems to have been built to a tight budget but that in itself has to be admired. It even achieved that 'no-one's ever had this room before' feel. The room was... more

Smart and funky hotel especially for the price, very modern I would have no problem recommending this hotel as a great place to stay, very easy to get to from the airport by train which stops in the new shopping centre below. Breakfast is very good with a very wide choice for everyone, rooms are new, clean and very modern,... more

Just back form a 5 night stay in the Barcelo in Malaga. We arrived at Malaga Airport and caught the train to Renfe Train station. This station is below the Hotel. Which was extremely convinent and cheap way of getting to and from the hotel. All hotel staff we met were friendly, helpful, quick and efficient. Our room was clean... more

This hotel is seriously funky. It may not be everybody's cup of tea, but even though we are in our fifties, we loved the design, the colour schemes, and yes..... the slide! Reception is uber cool, with a brilliant display behind the desk showing the train times from the station just outside. Staff were very friendly and helful, and check-in... more

We were expecting that, as usual, that the rooms would bear little resemblance to reality, but we were wrong. The hotel has a genuine design edge... more

What a way to spend a 50th Birthday. The hotel was new, very modern and just fantastic. The hotel was in the new shopping centre and train station and not a sound was heard. during the 3 nights we stayed. The rooms were big and spacious and bright. Breakfast was just out of this world and the staff were exceptional.... more

I booked through barcelo.com and received a reservation voucher by email but when I got to the hotel they had no reservation in their system for me. The receptionist was not happy about this and huffed and puffed like it was my fault, she found me a room so it was a drama over nothing which gave me a bad... more

Stayed for one night. We booked a double. At check-in we were given a twin (in case you're wondering, yes we're a couple of different sex). We walked down and asked for a double. They apologised and gave us another room. Get back again, and it's another twin. Down again, queue again for another 15mins. "Sorry we have no more... more
