What guests think

At Hotel Don Paco, travellers frequently praise the convenient location near Malaga’s train and bus stations and the friendly, helpful staff, while recurring downsides include small, basic rooms, many facing interior courtyards with limited natural light, and noticeable noise.

Beds are commonly described as hard or uncomfortable, and air conditioning can be inconsistent. Cleanliness is generally good, but some guests report bathroom odors, ants, or minor maintenance issues like leaky showers. Breakfast is available and convenient, though quality and variety are basic, with occasional praise for value. Expect a practical base for short stays focused on transport access.

This hotel is walking distance from the main train and bus station and with good transport links to the rest of the city if you don’t want to walk. Rooms are modern and clean with a good shower room. Sitting area downstairs if you want to relax there in the evening. Good value breakfast and helpful, friendly staff.

I arrived and the hotel looks nice and tidy. Things are working well, even the elevator greets you in your own language, well, I was greeted by “an error has occurred” 4 times (in danish). Entering the room - it was facing the inside of the building, but nicely made with a “out door experience” made by decoration and lights. I also appreciated the bed and the toilet paper which was high quality. There were also some things lacking, hence the 4 star rating. The shower had two shower heads. One hardly worked due to holdes for the water were closed by calcium. The other the hose was with a hole, so 50% of the water was running out there. Good thing was that there was enough water pressure. The breakfast wich is sold is at a normal rate, but the offering is below most I have experienced. The quality is the cheapest possible, that goes for the ham, the fruit (canned) to the juices (not juice but cheap sirups/ dilutaebles). It is a sad start of the day. All-in-all the hotel has a good value for money ending with a sad taste in the mouth.

Positiva la posizione: a due passi dalla stazione di treni, metro (arriva dall'aeroporto) e autobus regionali ed anche vicinissimo ad una fermata dei bus di città. Positivo il personale capace, gentile e disponibile; arrivati molto presto la mattina ci è comunque stata assegnata una camera. Positivo anche il livello di pulizia delle camere, per quanto riguarda colazione ed altri servizi non posso dire. Molto negativo che dal bagno, senza finestre, uscisse una puzza sgradevole il che è un problema ricorrente di Malaga. Il personale addetto alla pulizia ci provava ma dopo poche ore l'odoraccio si ripresentava. L' arredamento della camera era pratico ma molto spartano.

I chose Don Paco Hotel due to its closeness to Malaga railway station. It is less than a five minute walk. We arrived way before check in time but our room was ready. The room was a decent size, clean and very quiet. There was plenty of hot water for showers. It is about a 20 minute walk to the Roman Theatre through back streets and parkland.

Lamentable. Aparte de ser con ventana al pasillo, buena habitacion y baño. Buen descanso hasta que me desperté. Mesita, ropa y cama plagada de hormigas. Queria apurar la hora de salida para descansar y me fui a las 9h. Lo comenté en recepción y la respuesta, lejos de una disculpa, fue que es causado por el cambio de tiempo y estar a nivel de calle. No veo a las hormigas entrando por la puerta, subiendo dos pisos y entrando a mi habitación. Quizás deberia haber buscado un Hotel flotante.

Nicely renovated hotel - lobby area and rooms. Toilet and bathrooms ensuite are still old, but OK. Except that the shower leaks after each shower. They have tried to use silicon to fix it but failed. Air conditioning unit in the room is also not working. But being cooler weather, it was fine. Reception staff and housekeeping staff are very friendly and warm. Close to both the train and bus stations. Very convenient to walk across and also to the city centre & port area.

I would give this place a solid 3.5 rounded up to 4. Everything was good except the bed. Bed wasn’t too comfortable and being that it didn’t have a window looking out, it was fine. Sound insulation not good since the window faces out to a public atrium. Generally it was quiet.

The rooms are decent size and hotel is in good condition. Location is good, close to the train station and bus stop. However the beds were not comfortable and needs changing in rhe near future. Also the air-conditioning is so old that is barely works and being so hot in Malaga, this was very uncomfortable. For a short stay, this is ok however I would not recommend for longer stays.

We arrived earlier than check in time and the reception were very helpful in allocating our room early. This enabled us to freshen up before going into the city. Our room overlooked the inner courtyard which was a very quiet location and suited us more than one at the front which may be noisier due to traffic. The Hotel is about 20 minutes walk to the city centre, however is only minutes from the train and bus station, a very good location for us. The buffet breakfast was good and the staff friendly and attentive. We checked out after breakfast but we were able to leave our luggage until about 16.00 when we made our way to the airport. Reception staff were very helpful. In conclusion the hotel is at a good location for public transport, it is comfortable and the staff were really friendly and helpful.
