From desert to oasis—that’s an accurate summary of the evolution of Málaga’s hotel scene over the last 10 years, and there’s still more to come. For a long time, there was only one five-star hotel in the city (now there are three more), and recently, several four-star hotels have also opened in iconic buildings. As the city continues to grow, we are keeping our eyes on several new openings in the coming months to add to this list as they arise.
Málaga’s hotel boom hasn’t been without controversy in a city where many residents have been priced out of the historic center, and where both property rates and rent continue to soar. At the same time, these hotels have contributed to developing the city’s excellent tourist infrastructure and have helped to cement Málaga’s status as a must-visit destination. If you are headed there, here are our top picks for places to stay in the area, along with some insider tips worth considering. Read on to see 14 of the best hotels in Málaga, Spain.
