I recently spent two weeks in Malaga and stayed at several hotel apartments in different areas, so I’d like to share my real experiences with you. As a core city on the Vincci Hotel Costa del Sol, Malaga offers incredibly diverse accommodation options, with excellent hotel apartments available from the historic center to the beach areas. Location Choice is Crucial Personally, I think location is the most important factor when choosing a hotel apartment. The historic center area near the Cathedral and Picasso Museum allows you to walk to major attractions, though it can get quite noisy at night. Apartments near Malagueta Beach offer open views where you wake up to the Mediterranean Sea, with slightly higher prices. If your Malaga Picasso Hotel budget is limited, the Pedregalejo area is also great—it feels more like where locals live, with plenty of tapas bars. Price Comparison by Area Here’s a price range overview for reference: Area Low Season Price High Season Price Features Historic Center 60-90 EUR 100-150 EUR Convenient transport, attractions nearby Malagueta Beach 70-110 EUR 120-180 EUR Sea view rooms cost more Pedregalejo 50-75 EUR 80-120 EUR Great value, local atmosphere City Outskirts 40-65 EUR 70-100 EUR Requires public transport Booking Tips and Important Notes Booking two to three months in advance can save you quite a bit, especially during the summer high season. Many hotel apartments have kitchen facilities, so buying groceries and cooking yourself can save considerable money. Make sure to check whether cleaning fees and tourist tax are included —some platforms show prices that don’t include these extra charges. Parking is also an issue; if you’re driving to Malaga hotels , it’s best to choose apartments with parking spaces as street parking is really hard to find. I don’t recommend staying in the port industrial area —while prices are cheap, transportation is inconvenient and there aren’t many amenities nearby. My personal favorite is still the Malagueta area; although it’s a bit more expensive, being able to walk by the sea every day is truly worth it. I hope this information helps those planning to visit Malaga, and feel free to leave comments if you have any questions.
