On 23 January 2020, the new Balearic Law against Tourism Excesses entered into force, which prohibits all-inclusive deals with unlimited alcoholic beverages. Only a maximum of three alcoholic beverages per guest will be served during lunch and/or dinner.
We would also like to inform you of the following restrictions included in the law:
Practices which may endanger the life, health and physical integrity of guests are strictly prohibited at hotels, apartments and holiday properties. These practices include climbing from one balcony or window to another and jumping from inappropriate places such as balconies into swimming pools (a practice widely known as ';balconing';). Guests breaking the law will be immediately banished from the property and may be fined, states the law and the corresponding municipal regulations. The hotel/apartment manager or property agent must order said guests to leave immediately, which may require assistance from the security forces.
Failure to comply with the prohibition of practices which may endanger the life, health and physical integrity of guests will be considered a serious offence. In the Balearic Islands, serious offences are subject to a fine between 6,001 and 60,000 euros.

My partner and I stayed at this beautiful, historical, romantic castle for just one night. Unfortunately, I was battling a cold, so I couldn’t fully enjoy this stay. However, the staff were so gracious to allow us to check in hours early so I could nap, and even made an off the menu soup for me to help me recover. Given this castle’s rich history and past life as a hospital, it’s no wonder they took such good care of me! I will be returning here for another holiday where I am hopefully not battling any ailments so I can fully appreciate the beauty and delicious food. My partner, who ended up eating dinner on his own, said it was one of the best meals in the most romantic setting :) (The most romantic you could get dining alone!)

Staying at the Castillo de Santa Catalina is a most wonderful experience. The hotel is located in the best residential area of Malaga, which in itself is good as it is very quiet and, if you do not feel like going to the city centre, you can have a very pleasant walk in the area. The hotel is very stylish, the rooms are very well-appointed, with furniture that fits in harmoniously with the architecture of the castle. Chopard toiletries are one of the many nice touches. The best about the hotel are the excellent people who work there. The staff are very cordial and welcoming, nothing is too much for them. I had many nice and touching surprises, like being offered some delicious home-made chocolate cookies as a compliment from the establishment. The staff offer a highest level of service, on a par with the overall excellent experience of staying in this truly luxurious hotel. I will definitely return some time in the future and will be very happy to see all the wonderful, friendly and cordial people who work there!

The location was great; fabulous views & close to the sea. The doormen, Manuel & Mamadou were very helpful. Everywhere was super clean.

The location was great; fabulous views & close to the sea. The doormen, Manuel & Mamadou were very helpful. Everywhere was super clean. The only thing that let this hotel down was the breakfasts, the dishes we ordered were very slow to arrive (or didn't come at all). The yogurt had cornflakes sprinkled on it and I asked for coffee con leche but twice was served a cappuccino. A buffet style breakfast, such as we've had in other 5 star hotels in Malaga would have vastly improved this experience.
