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

I have stayed at Hostal La Palma several times in recent years in various rooms in the Hostal and I have never been disappointed. The Hostal is in a great location for shops, sights and beach. The rooms are always scrupulously clean, with good mattresses and most with balconies. The owner, Caroline could not be more helpful and accommodating. More

Most notably this hotel has a very friendly owner who helps out with all sorts of practicalities, that made me feel very welcome. I had a room with ensuite bathroom that was super clean. The hotel is centrally located, close to the major shopping street and just a 15min walk to the beach. So it's perfect for city trips as... More

I stayed here for two nights with two connecting rooms, one with ensuite, the other with a sink in the room. Lovely place to stay. The location could not be beaten. Right next to the best street in town. The woman who owns the place was really nice and helpful. I'm learning Spanish and she spoke slowly and clearly to... More

I went to the Hostal La Palma for a solo trip, 7 nights. This is a great place for backpackers or low-budget travellers, even with children or in couple! A safe and clean place, excellent location to enjoy the city (tourism attractions and beaches), not expensive and really nice, helpful multilangual staff! I enjoy my stay very much, and I... More

The place did need a bit of a clean in my opinion. We only stayed a night before we flew back home so didnt mind too much. Good location, helpful owner (kept our luggage safe and met us to when we needed to collect it to go to the airport). More

Everything is great about this place : - the location (30 sec to main street, 1 min from buses and taxis station, 2 min to the supermarket and 10 min to the beach -- although it's a nice and quiet street) - the rooms that are spacious and super clean - very good value for the price - and the...

I absolutely recommend this place. Prices are low and rooms are very clean and nice. Clima at night. :D Great location! (Watch out for adresses when looking for accomodation in Malaga, cause it's a BIG City!) It was always FULL while our staying, so book it much earlier :) Thank You Caroline for being so helpful! You're the best! More

Stayed here for one night 1st June. Lovely old appartment block with character in the centre. Rooms are basic but clean. The lady who owns the place is very hospitable - she even showed me to the bus stop! More
