Higueron Hotel Malaga, Curio Collection by Hilton

mark mcginley

We had an excellent 3 night stay (Half board). Rooms were modern, clean, spacious & well maintained. Bed big & comfortable. Breakfast was very good with 2 restaurants to choose from. Evening meal options were very good with lots of choice. The staff were very friendly & helpful. The hotel provided a lovely welcome gift in our room for the anniversary we were celebrating which was a lovely gesture. Highly recommended, can’t wait to go back.

Really nice hotel right in higuerón. I really liked the breakfast. It's one of the best I ever had! The room had a nice view, and the sofa-bed wasn't as bad as a normal sofa-bed is. It was quite alright. When I'm in Málaga next time I will definitely come back!

I was disappointed with our stay. I say at Hiltons about 3 times a month and can’t think of a Hilton property in Europe where, prior to this the experience, wasn’t outstanding. We were ending a 10 day trip and this was our final night and least friendly hotel experience. The hotel had some excellent exercise amenities but we were not able to use most of them. A good number required prior booking and with other hotels prior to our arrival they would send notes or last minute booking were available. When we arrived in the afternoon, very little was available, but not a big deal. We though we could at least try the Hydro circuit in the spa, but the two ladies were really not interested in helping us book an appointment - yes, we were using broken Spanish but pointing to our phones w the feature at the hotel site- literally brushed away. The Med restaurant had a nice dinner and the staff was pleasant.

Excellent all-around, staff was very nice and very helpful. For tennis fan/players this place is for them have over 10 tennis court that we were able to count. Breakfast buffet was excellent also we had dinner on the roof top restaurant as well as in the restaurant down by the SPA area and the food/service was great.

A mixed bag I'm afraid with this hotel. Firstly, the room was excellent (we received an upgrade), and the general feel of the hotel is lovely. Great gym facilities and the Med pool area is lovely. Great breakfast on offer as well. However, the same music play list plays throughout the day and evening at the pool area. Its not a long play list so is constantly repeated and after a day or two becomes pretty irritating, and to be honest after a week I was sick listening to it. We had the half board option and whilst I can't fault the food in the Med restaurant, the service was poor. It was clear they were always understaffed and the staff were constantly running about like headless chickens, and I genuinely mean some of them were running. It was actually quite a stressful environment to try and relax in and detracted from what should have been a pleasant, relaxing experience. It was constantly difficult to attract a staff member to order drinks, and on a few occasions the drinks orders were messed up. On a couple of nights we had only had a starter after sitting for more than an hour. The staff at the restaurant were pleasant and apologetic but they were totally stressed. It got to the stage that despite having half board, on the last night we decided not to eat in the hotel and ended up going out for food. As I've said, the restaurant staff were generally pleasant however front of house not so. I'm not sure why, but I got the general feeling that you were always an inconvenience when asking them anything, and on checking out we weren't asked if we enjoyed our stay, it was just simply pay the bill and go. The location is what it is, you should know before you go that it's up a very steep hill, however the shuttle bus was good. Unfortunately, overall a nice looking hotel and decent food doesn't make it 5 star and I'm afraid there is a lot to improve on.
