Hotel Details

Location

Carretería 5 is set in the heart of Málaga's historic centre, surrounded by bars, restaurants, and cultural landmarks.
The Picasso Museum is just 700 metres away, the Alcazaba fortress is 1 km, and La Malagueta Beach is 2 km from the apartment. Málaga Cathedral, the Museum of Glass and Crystal, and the Jorge Rando Museum are all within a 10-minute walk. Málaga Airport is 10 km away, easily reachable by taxi or the paid airport shuttle service. The area is pedestrian-friendly, with numerous tapas bars, restaurants, and shops on the same street and nearby corners. For longer distances, the central train station is less than 10 minutes on foot, and public parking is available a few minutes away for €24 per day. The location is quiet despite being central, as the immediate street is largely pedestrianised, though some rooms facing the road may experience noise from street activity during the night.

Wellness and Leisure

Leisure activities are centred on the city's cultural and coastal attractions, all within walking distance.
The nearby Alcazaba and Picasso Museum provide cultural outings, while La Malagueta Beach (2 km) offers swimming and sunbathing. For active guests, fishing and diving are available off-site and free of charge. The property itself does not have a pool, spa, or gym. The historic centre's streets, parks, and promenades are ideal for walking and jogging. The large terrace or balcony in select apartments provides a private space for relaxing outdoors. During certain seasons, Easter parades and other local festivities pass by the building, offering a unique experience from the balcony.

Wi-Fi is free and available in all areas. Parking is available off-site for €24 per day, and an electric vehicle charging station is on premises.
