Very clean, super cute little room with en suite bathroom in a historic building. It was safe and in a great location for the historic center. The staff was friendly as was the hotel kitty, Princess.

Excellent for the price. Great location and friendly receptionist. A bit rustic and quirky. Some people might want a fancy hotel, pay more and get one. This place was perfect for us!

Liked: Amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The aesthetically pleasing vitrified ceramic tile flooring and wall treatments were a notable feature. Its convenient proximity to area attractions, restaurants, cafes, and eateries was advantageous. However, the property's location at the end of a street experiencing issues with homelessness and public intoxication presented safety concerns. On the morning leaving for breakfast, human waste was discovered near the entrance. Furthermore, early morning construction noise from the lower level disrupted our sleep. Parking was limited and the spaces were cramped.

El Riad Andaluz is a delightful hotel on a quiet pedestrian street. The central atrium with many climbing plants is a lovely place to sit. The owner (with his very friendly cat) looked after us well. Highly recommended.

Charming small hotel

Perfect location close to most attractions but still very quiet. Friendly and helpfull owner. Simple but clean and comfortable rooms with charming decor. We enjoyed our stay very much and would choose the same hotel if we visit Malaga again.

Beautiful Andalucian house with cute interior patio. Small rooms but adequate. We didn’t like the bathrooms because had no doors, only curtains and the bathroom walls did not reach the ceiling. We had to take turns out of the room, to have some privacy while we used the bathroom…

Quiet, clean, well located inn.

Cozy, well located, quiet place. The riad is located in a quiet, pedestrian street, centrally located, but away from loud bars. The rooms are well lit and look much better in person. The place offers beach towels and umbrellas to take to the beach, along with recommendations for breakfast and lunch spots.

Our room was excellent. Clean linens, great location, and even parking was close (it took about 20 mins to find a spot, but worth it). The only thing i would say to improve is it would be nice to have a personal fridge to keep food cool in.
