Futurotel Malagueta

Futurotel Malagueta is a mid-range hotel at Calle Maestranza 20 in La Malagueta, the seafront district east of the historic centre of Málaga, in Andalusia, Spain. The street is named for the nearby Plaza de Toros de La Malagueta, the city bullring, and lies a short walk from La Malagueta city beach and the Paseo Marítimo Pablo Ruiz Picasso. The cathedral, Alcazaba and Calle Larios can be reached on foot in about fifteen to twenty-five minutes, while the Muelle Uno harbour promenade and the Picasso Museum are also within walking distance. The María Zambrano station is a brief taxi ride away, and Málaga Airport is roughly 10 kilometres from the property. The district combines residential streets with beach bars, seafood restaurants and the lively atmosphere of the city's urban beach, which gives the hotel a more relaxed character than the busy old town. Rooms are offered as Double, Twin, Superior and Family types with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi, suitable for couples and families wanting to combine sightseeing with beach time. No pool, spa or restaurant is listed in the amenity data, so guests usually eat at the many nearby cafés, chiringuitos and restaurants along the seafront. Quoted rates run from about €60 to €140 per night, which is moderate for a location near the sea, and the guest rating is about 4.0. Service is that of a straightforward city hotel, with reception able to arrange taxis, luggage storage and local advice. Rates rise during Semana Santa, the August Feria and summer weekends, when the beach is at its busiest. Light sleepers should note that evening noise from the seafront and bullring events can carry in some rooms, and a higher floor or inner room may help.
