As a result of the termination, Marriott has stated that Sonder is no longer affiliated with Marriott Bonvoy and added that Sonder’s properties are not available for new bookings through Marriott channels. Contacted at the hotel in Málaga, they have only confirmed that they have been closed since today.

In addition to the hotel, the termination of the agreement has also forced the closure of the Brésc restaurant, owned by the Málaga chef Pablo Rutllant. The young chef is also the owner of Mi Niña Lola (an establishment that was recently recommended by the Michelin Guide).

The hotel had only been operating in the capital for a few months. It opened its doors in August of this same year and the company Sonder was excited about this establishment which "enjoys a strategic location, a very beautiful and functional design, warm and with colors that do not leave anyone indifferent." The establishment has 95 rooms, of which eight are suites, and it has parking and a restaurant.
