About this property
Located just 250 metres from the beach in Málaga’s eastern district of Pedregalejo, this hotel provides a peaceful setting for your stay in the capital of the Costa del Sol. Free WiFi is available throughout. The Elcano lies a 10-minute journey from the historic centre of this Andalusian port city. The nearby seafront promenade is also a great place to sample the city’s famous seafood cuisine. The hotel’s interior blends cheerful colors with charming traditional furnishings in wrought iron or attractive woods. Outside, the terracotta and whitewashed buildings create an authentically Andalusian feel. The property is outside the low-emission zone and it has free movement within the area and easy access by car. The hotel’s glassed terrace provides a great place to enjoy a quiet coffee or beer with a book. A natural Andalusian breakfast is offered at the property. A bike rental service is available.
