Room Mate Larios

Room Mate Larios is a design-led mid-range hotel at Calle Marqués de Larios 2, on the main pedestrian shopping street of Málaga in Andalusia, Spain. The address is at the southern end of the Larios axis, beside the Alameda Principal, so Plaza de la Constitución, the cathedral, the Picasso Museum and the Alcazaba are all within a short walk. The port, the Muelle Uno promenade and the Malagueta beach can be reached on foot in roughly ten to twenty minutes, and the María Zambrano station is about twenty minutes away on foot or a short taxi ride. The airport is approximately eight kilometres from the centre and connected by train and bus. Room Mate is a Spanish hotel brand known for contemporary interiors, a youthful tone and an informal, sociable service style, and the Larios property follows that approach in a historic building on one of the city's most recognisable streets. Rooms are offered as double rooms, twin rooms, superior rooms and family rooms, with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi, and the superior rooms add space and street views over the Larios axis. A bar provides drinks and light food in a relaxed setting, and the street outside is lined with cafés, tapas bars and restaurants, so many guests eat outside the hotel. Breakfast is generally available on site, and the staff can recommend nearby tapas venues, museums and routes for the old town. The service character is friendly and relaxed, with a focus on leisure travellers, couples and groups of friends, and the central location also suits short business trips. Prices typically run from about €100 to €230 per night, with the highest rates during Semana Santa, the August Feria and the Christmas lights season, when Calle Larios is a focal point of celebration. Because the hotel sits in the heart of a lively pedestrian zone, street noise can be noticeable on busy evenings, and light sleepers may prefer a higher floor or a room facing away from the street.
