Higueron Hotel Malaga, Curio Collection by Hilton

Superb hotel throughout, with a real luxury feel from start to finish. 👏🏻 The staff were genuinely friendly and it was a nice touch being recognised as a Hilton Gold member as well as a lovely glass of arrival bubbles. We stayed in a stunning suite with loads of space massive bed. The layout was open-plan, which really suited us, and the Rituals toiletries were a lovely detail. We also appreciated the fresh water topped up every day. The weather wasn’t great while we were there, so we ended up using the facilities quite a bit. We booked a paddle session which I thought was really good value, and we also used the pool. It would’ve been nice if the spa was included, but I understand that’s usually an extra at this level. We didn’t use the spa in the end, but it looked great. The restaurant was a highlight. We ate at what I believe is the hotel’s own restaurant, The Med, and it completely exceeded expectations. Hotel restaurants can sometimes feel a bit samey, but this one had real character and the service was excellent. The rooftop pool area was brilliant too, with great staff looking after everyone, and it had a nice atmosphere at night with live music which really lifted the place. Breakfast was a show stopper too, honestly everything you’d want. And because the hotel has that sporty, spa-style feel, the breakfast matched it perfectly, with a proper station for pressed detox juices, alongside the usual cooked options, smoked salmon, and loads more. Overall, an amazing stay. I can’t wait to come back, hopefully with better weather so we can properly enjoy the outdoor areas, because they look unreal.

I’ve just come back from a stay at the Higuerón Hilton ( first time ) and honestly, it was exactly what I needed. The whole place feels calm and stylish without trying too hard. The staff were friendly in a genuine way, not that “forced smile” vibe you get in some hotels. I mentioned briefly to the manager that it was our wedding anniversary and wanted a recommendation on where to eat and before you knew it we came back to our hotel room to a bottle of fizz and a beautiful cake. The spa was a standout for me — spotless, relaxing and not overcrowded. I actually had a whole weekend with no shoulder pain, which is a miracle in itself. The views around the hotel are gorgeous and the whole place has that peaceful “you can actually switch off here” feel. It was an extra charge but the day rate was reasonable for the experience and kills some hours prior to our flight home! Miguel in the lobby bar couldn’t do enough for us, especially we our requests to slip cava and coffee in the sunshine and his manner and customer service was excellent! David in the infinity lounge made our final breakfast second to none! And kept the coffee flowing … All the staff including house keeping were just lovely. Rooms were clean, beds comfy, food beyond great it was stunning and everything just worked the way it should for a 21st wedding anniversary weekend away. It’s the kind of hotel you leave thinking, “yes, I’ll be back next year for sure to have the experience again” Please try the taster menu if you go! I think I should have upgraded to a pool side room view rather than the partial view but that’s my own doing to save a little money! We went half board and had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back soon to make even more memories with you!

Wow... we were so pleasantly surprised! 🤩 We arrived and the lobby and entrance look absolutely amazing, you'll be blown away. ✨ We initially had a standard double room, but we received an upgrade to a suite, which was absolutely fantastic!! 🥳 The food is also delicious, and the overall atmosphere is wonderful. 🍽️ The fitness center is also really well equipped, but generally, a sports enthusiast will find something suitable here, as there's a lot on offer. 🏋️‍♀️🤸‍♂️

I recently stayed at the Higueron Hotel, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton, and I was absolutely blown away. The resort itself is stunningly beautiful, a truly refreshing and relaxing environment. It's a place I'd love to visit again and again. One of the highlights was undoubtedly the breakfast. It was an amazing experience, with a wide array of delicious options that surpassed any hotel breakfast I've had before. The cleanliness throughout the resort further contributed to the overall feeling of luxury and comfort. I also want to give a special mention to Samantha. Her service was consistently exceptional, and she truly enhanced the stay with her welcoming and approachable demeanor. Her positive energy is contagious, and her dedication to providing outstanding service is a major asset to the hotel.

Very much a mixed experience at this restaurant. The location at the top of a mountain overlooking a valley and views of the ocean are superb. The exterior of the resort including the pool areas, sports facilities are second to none. It is a visually stunning resort. The rooms themselves are small, clean and fairly basic. It is very much a studio apartment feel as the bathrooms are integrated into the bedroom without a separate facility. The service here was poor and this is where the hotel falls short. We were not made to feel like paying guests right from the check in. Despite being a Hilton Honours member and already have checked in online. We were made to wait to check in again at the front desk. This process took in excess of 40 minutes. As we were waiting in line, a flight crew of 30+ people who arrived following us were checked in first. We made a complaint about this and it was completely overlooked. Unfortunately this hotel is not worth the price due to poor service and is not upholding the high standards that you'd normally expect with Hilton. Please do better.
