"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.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Malaga Historic Centre?
The best area to stay in Malaga Historic Centre is the area around Calle Larios and the Cathedral, offering a central and convenient base.

This neighbourhood is the beating heart of Malaga, known for its elegant pedestrianised streets, historic architecture, and abundance of shops, restaurants, and cultural sights. Calle Larios, the main shopping street, leads directly to the waterfront and is flanked by the grand Malaga Cathedral. You'll find many of the city's key attractions, such as the Picasso Museum and the Alcazaba, just a short stroll away.

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.

In spring, the average temperatures range from 18°C to 24°C, making it ideal for walking around and enjoying outdoor cafes. You'll find the city's parks and gardens in full bloom, and there are often local festivals and events taking place. It's a great time for couples to enjoy romantic strolls through the historic streets without the intense summer heat.

The sea is often still warm enough for a swim if you fancy a short trip to the nearby beaches.

While summer (June to August) brings the warmest weather, often exceeding 30°C, it also sees the largest crowds and higher prices for accommodation. Winter (November to March) is generally mild and sunny, but some attractions might have shorter opening hours, and there's a higher chance of rain.
