Malaga, Malaga City, Spain
Set just west of Malaga’s old town, Malaga Alameda Centro Affiliated By Melia gives you the best of both worlds: fast access in and out of the city, plus an easy walk into the historic centre. From the first floor you step straight into the Larios Commercial Centre for high-street brands, eateries and supermarkets, while the palm-lined port, cathedral and Picasso sights unfold within roughly 15–20 minutes on foot.
Malaga itself blends golden city beaches with centuries of history – from Roman ruins and Moorish fortresses to baroque churches and contemporary art galleries. When evening falls, wander towards Calle Larios for buzzy tapas bars, rooftop terraces and flamenco-filled nights.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
There is no swimming pool at Malaga Alameda Centro Affiliated By Melia, which is typical for a centrally located city hotel. Instead, you have Malaga’s urban beaches and seafront promenade within easy reach by bus, taxi or on foot.
Head towards Playa de la Malagueta and neighbouring sands for a classic Costa del Sol beach scene, complete with chiringuitos (beach bars), seafood grills and sunbed hire. It’s a great way to blend city culture with time by the sea on a single break.
Spa, sports & wellness
Keep up your fitness routine in the air-conditioned gym, equipped with cardio machines and a free-weights area – ideal for a quick workout before breakfast or after a day in the city.
Beyond the gym, you’ll benefit from helpful concierge-style reception services, from restaurant suggestions to directions for Malaga’s must-see sights. Being connected to the Larios Commercial Centre also means you have banks, cafés and shops right at your feet, handy for ATMs, travel essentials and last-minute purchases.
