I found this old blog entry which I was going to delete initially. Then I thought I could complete it by talking about the best hotels of the Vincci chain in Malaga.
A tourist usually wants to feel at home, so if the stay in a hotel has been good, they are very likely to repeat. This is something that also happens to me, although I have never used a Vincci hotel I thought it might be useful to know the basic options this chain offers for accommodation in Malaga.
There are four Vincci hotels in the province. Of the four, only 3 are 5-star hotels, the fourth being a 4-star hotel. There are two in the city centre, one in Marbella and also one in Benalmádena.
I have included a minimum price that has been taken at least 2 months in advance. The price will increment exponentially the closer to the reservation date you check prices.
Hotel Vincci Selection Posada del Patio
The Vincci Posada del Patio Hotel became the first 5 star hotel in Malaga centre in 2010. It’s a recent hotel that is situated in the heart of the capital, next to the Guadalmedina river bed. It is very close to the main monuments so it’s an ideal location if you’re looking to stroll the city centre.
In addition to being a 5-star hotel with all that this entails, it has been built using a 19th century building as a base with a restored façade. It is therefore visually attractive, but what else does it offer?
During its construction were found important archaeological remains of an Arab and a Roman wall. Both of those walls have been partially restored and are arranged so that you can see both sides.
One of the features of this hotel is the cafeteria, located above the archaeological remains with a glass floor. Any client can enjoy having a coffee with the remains of the walls at their feet, a very curious contrast.
The hotel’s gastronomy offers traditional cuisine and is open to the public. The buffet restaurant is reserved for hotel guests.
There is also has a fitness center; is a popular hotel for couples and of modern construction.
*The average price for 6 nights in August for 2 people is 230€ per night.
