If You Are in a Hurry
Here’s a quick list of the best hotels in Málaga
Málaga’s 4-star hotels strike the perfect balance between Andalusian charm and modern comfort, offering converted historic properties and contemporary seafront stays with rooftop pools, spas, and easy walking access to the Picasso Museum, Alcazaba, and La Malagueta beach. For the best experience, prioritize centrally located hotels for sightseeing, book rooms with terraces or sea views, and check included amenities like breakfast and A/C during summer—while boutique properties deliver intimate local character, larger chains often provide more consistent facilities and family-friendly options. Booking early for peak festivals or summer weekends will secure better rates and preferred room types, making a 4-star stay in Málaga both an affordable and memorable way to enjoy the city.
