Hotel Details

Location

The apartment sits in central Málaga, a 5-minute walk from María Zambrano train station and a 20-minute walk from the historic centre.
Located 400 metres from Malaga María Zambrano Train Station and a 12-minute walk from San Andres Beach, this apartment puts you within easy reach of the city's main transport hub. The Port of Malaga is a 16-minute walk away, and the Alcazaba, Picasso Museum, and Malaga Cathedral are all a short walk from the door. Malaga Airport is 7 km away, reachable by train from the nearby station. A wide selection of restaurants, cafés and shops cluster around the property within a 5-minute walk. The 8th-floor position keeps the apartment surprisingly quiet despite the central location.

Accommodation

The air-conditioned apartment has one bedroom with a double bed, one private bathroom, and a compact kitchenette.
This 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment on the 8th floor is compact but well-equipped for short stays. The bedroom has a comfortable double bed, and the bathroom features a spacious shower with good water pressure. The kitchenette includes a microwave and is suitable for simple meal preparation. Heating and a flat-screen TV are provided. A strong point is the effective air conditioning. The apartment is described as clean, cosy and practical for solo travellers or couples who plan to spend most of their time out exploring the city. As a compact unit, it is less suited to guests needing extensive living space.

Dining

The apartment has a kitchenette for self-catering. No on-site restaurant or breakfast service.
For guests who prefer to eat in, the kitchenette is equipped with a microwave and basic cooking facilities. The immediate neighbourhood offers a dense cluster of dining options within a 3-minute walk, including Cesare Gelato Italiano, La Taberna Vinagorra, La Nave Gastro Bar, and others. The historic centre is a 20-minute walk and adds many more restaurants and tapas bars. There is no breakfast or meal service provided by the property, so self-catering or eating out are the primary options.

Wellness and Leisure

No on-site wellness or leisure facilities. The location provides easy access to Málaga's beaches and cultural attractions.
The apartment does not have a pool, gym, spa, or leisure facilities. However, San Andres Beach is a 12-minute walk away, and the historic centre with its museums, cathedral, and Alcazaba fortress is within a 20-minute walk. The nearby train station also provides access to other coastal destinations.

Facilities and Services

Free WiFi, free off-site parking with reservation, lift access, luggage storage available, and a helpful host.
The apartment offers free, good-speed WiFi (17 Mbps) suitable for streaming and video calls. Free private parking is available in a nearby garage but must be reserved in advance - the garage access can be tight, so smaller cars are easier. The host lives in the same building and is available for assistance in English and Spanish. Luggage storage can be arranged before check-in or after check-out. Safety features include CCTV in common areas, external CCTV, and fire extinguishers. The 8th-floor unit is served by a lift. An invoice is provided upon request.
