Hotels Near Observatorio de Laguna Escondida in Malaga

I just stayed in the Campanile Malaga airport and would not recommend it.Firstly it is not as near the airport as the Campanile claim.The other airport hotels most of which i have used over the years are more easily accessed. The hotel is positioned near retail park on the outskirts of Malaga past the airport with no direct route to the airport. My taxi this morning Jan 2023 to the airport was 18 euros compared to for example the Budget Ibis or Hilton Garden village which average 8/ 10 euros. On the map it does look like the campanile is the closest hotel to the airport but it is not. The hotel is in what could only be called a small compound behind a retail park for ref. look for BIGASSOFA store and the hotel is in a dark back street behind it . The hotel appears to have limited secure parking but you can park on the street outside. The rooms are small compared to say the Ibis and have limited light and fresh air as the window at least in the small room we were allocated which was of the reception and down a corridor with no windows,stained carpet in corridor and through two fire doors. The small beds were clean, bathroom ok but could do with some remedial work. The hotel seems to have adopted the name Restaurant Campanile Malaga airport.The restaurant was not open and we were told by receptionist is not open at the weekends She advised us we could get food early evening at the retail park. The restaurant is a small area of the small reception which also houses a group of chairs and a TV which was continually showing silent football games when we were there. The receptionist informed us the ground floor rooms were the quietest rooms in the hotel.The room we were in was not quiet.The room next door had definitely more than 2 adults in it playing music loudly and screaming at tv from shortly after we arrived to the early hours of morning.The receptionist asked them twice to keep it down but was basically ignored.This resulted in us getting 2/3 hours sleep before our early morning Ryan Air flight. Overall a really bad experience and i would strongly recommend using any of the other airport hotels most of which are literally 5 mins on a direct main road to the airport terminal.

The hotel is located just 100dyers away from the airport but if you are with luggage, you will have to take a taxi that will cost you anywhere between 15 and 20 euro. If it’s Saturday evening you will pay 20. In fact, it’s the most expensive taxi in the world, as we paid 20 euro for a dive of 1000 meters, and that’s with official taxi ! Completely rip off so if you can, just avoid staying at the airport hotel. Regarding this hotel, it’s of very poor quality. They claim that windows are sound proof but it’s not the case. The hotel is located between two very busy highways, so the noise is like you are siting on the side of a highway. The beds are very uncomfortable and pillows are impossible to sleep, the management Shiism try to sleep on this pillow one night and treat a neck pain next morning. The room is very hot and air is dry ( even if you try to control he temperature in the room ) it doesn’t se to work and you can not open the window for fresh air because of the enormous noise that comes from highway. So either bring the earplugs with you and ask the opposite side ( not facing the highway) The only positive point: the rooms are quite spacious and the shower is ok too ( even though it just has a curtain instead of normal door you would expect in the shower) Would not recommend staying there, and for the price of 20 euros for taxi you are better off staying at a better hotel closer to Malaga, with more comfort.

All staff was super friendly and helpful! The hotel and the rooms were very very clean. Comfy bed and pillow, all amenities provided (only the conditioner wasn't provided). Minibar and safe present in the room, daily cleaning service. Breakfast was delicious with a sweet and savoury buffet selection and eggs and pancakes on request. Nice swimming pool but always very busy. The location is not great so keep that in mind! The closest beach is 30 minutes walking distance and you definitely need to take the bus/taxi to reach Malaga city centre. Uber is very cheap though.

It’s been four years since we last stayed , due to covid etc. This must have been our fifth or sixth stay and it was great to see (and be remembered by some of the team, Gemma, Xzavi, Luis). We stay here because of the location , just 7mins to the airport, and a pleasant 10 min walk or so into central Malaga. On this occasion we had a mid evening arrival so I emailed for a restaurant reservation . In our room was a lovely chilled bottle of cava and a cake as it was my birthday. A lovely touch. Nacho on reception was delightfully cheerful and welcoming. We had a great room on the 6th floor. Comfortable and clean, it does however get hot, and if you leave the window open you can hear the street noise (not a problem). My only suggestion for the room would be a mirror in the main room and slightly more lights. There is a fridge which we used for some food purchases. You can take drinks upstairs and they are cheap, we always use the bar, you can talk to the team and learn great facts about the area. (Without Luis’ s tips a few years back our trip to Granada wouldn’t have been as good). The food in the restaurant was good and well priced , the restaurant is now on the ground floor a change since our last trip. Don’t forget a trip on the slide , a Must in this hotel!! There are lots of local bars and restaurants nearby , we will be back. Thanks to everyone for another great trip.

Most important point - we will stay here again when we return to Malaga if they have rooms available! Pleasant tourist hotel. The rating is relative to the hotel class and price - luxury hotels of course exist and are nicer but in my experiences in Europe, this is a 'best in class.' Nice spacious and clean rooms. Excellent and helpful staff and everyone had a high level of English so we could forego our poor Spanish. The staff helped us extend our reservation through a fully booked Saturday night AND found a way to keep us in the same rooms.

My husband and I came to Malaga for a week, and chose Room Mate Valeria after being won over by the pictures of the brightly coloured rooms and good reviews, we made the best choice! Our room was perfect! The bed was sooo comfy, we had a wonderful little outside balcony to take in the lovely view and the shower and facilities in the room were great. Service when we arrived was amazing the staff are really friendly and accommodating, late check out was a lovely bonus, as is their facility to provide beach towels at no extra cost. We had breakfast twice at the hotel, it was ok for me but my husband who is vegetarian had a limited choice of food to choose from so we decided to eat out after. The other main facility the rooftop bar/swimming pool was nice. We never used the swimming pool and I was quite surprised at how small it was (I think the hotel might have been better off not having a pool and just having a roof top and sun lounging area) but the roof top area was always popular and enjoyable. It’s nice that priority is given to hotel guests too. If you don’t want to go to a nightclub but want a late night drink the rooftop is lovely. A nice little touch to an already lovely hotel. Would highly recommend this place.

It may be the quality of the front desk staff at the time of check-in. I asked me for 220 euros in bank karaoke. I thought I was going to pay the city tax. When I pressed the password, I took a look and asked him what money was it when I found it wrong? He said it was the room rate, I said I had paid on Trip.com! He went to check again, saying that he was wrong, the fourth time he came to Spain, there have been many unpleasant things, including taxis at the airport and even customs... The price is not high.

The hotel was wonderful and centrally located. I couldn't ask for a better location to be honest! My only issue here was the WiFI that it run extremely slow. I ended up buying a phone line to be able to us the hotspot so that I could work. Other than that I had a pleasant stay!

Wow…..this hotel 🏨 is central to everything & ticks all the right boxes: Eco - save money on your room by not having it cleaned daily! Price - great value Quietest hotel ever Best air con ever Free WiFi Really helpful, polite & friendly staff Great breakfast-something for everyone - replenished frequently Easy to get to from either bus stop outside of airport or the train station

Located just outside Málaga centre, this hotel is very clean and has excellent facilities. However, if you want to go to the city center, you must use the bus. It took about 20 minutes by bus to reach the city center, and public transportation was easier to use than expected, so I didn't feel any major inconvenience. The breakfast is great and the room condition is good. However, the swimming pool on the rooftop is thinner and smaller than expected, so take that into account.
