"Let me start off by saying, the apartments were really, really nice. However, the check-in experience was the longest and most obnoxious I have ever dealt with. It took an hour and a half from the time I booked it to complete the online registration for both apartments. Then when they got there, the codes they gave us to access the keys were wrong so I had to call them up (no front desk) and try to wrangle the door open with hallway lights that were on timers to turn off every 30 seconds.

"Small but clean studio with everything you need. Very central location so amazing for sightseeing, shopping or enjoying the restaurant options. But that also comes with some downsides since there are a few bars/restaurants around and many people sit outside. Luckily we had earplugs with us, so still slept well but without it would have been hard."

For couples, this area is particularly appealing. You'll be surrounded by charming tapas bars and restaurants, superb for evening meals, and can easily enjoy an evening stroll through the beautifully lit streets. The convenience of having so many attractions within walking distance means less travel time and more time to enjoy each other's company.

Solo travellers will also find this area ideal due to its central location and the ease of getting around on foot.
When is the best time to go to Malaga Historic Centre?
The best time to go to Malaga Historic Centre is during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October). These months offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and a generally more comfortable experience for exploring the city.
