Our Customer's Reviews of Hotels in Malaga

Las Vegas (malaga)
"The hotel on the whole was adequate. The breakfast buffet was probably the worst I have experienced in a number of years. There was little variety, for example there were no eggs and the same food was provided on a daily basis. The pillows and the towels were inferior. Only two pillows were provided for a double room and they were very thin and did not provide a good sleep. The room was clean, as was the hotel in general. The staff were not especially friendly. We reported a damaged chair on the balcony, which we were afraid could split and break. It was not replaced. There was a very limited menu in the dining room and given that local bars and restaurants were almost non-existent, this made for a disappointing holiday. I would not recommend this hotel."

Las Vegas
"We did not enjoy our stay at the Las Vegas Hotel in Malaga and I will never return. This the most unfriendly hotel I have had the misfortune to stay in. The only good thing about it was the room was kept clean."
