Malaga Inn

Stayed here for 2 nights, midweek. The hotel is in a nicely-kept historic building with a cute, quiet courtyard to sit in. Some rooms have balconies overlooking the street (which is a quiet street). The location is great, within a short walking distance to all the main attractions (literally behind the carnival museum). The neighborhood felt safe to walk in. free parking is a big bonus. The trimmings, such as the coffee, face tissues, etc. are on the basic side, but this may be what you can expect at this price range.

It's super charming and a unique hotel. I liked the place...I'd say I loved the idea of a place. I'm so tired of the chains that offer nothing unique and this is a refreshing break from that bleak monotony. I think, however, it could use a few touches to bring it up to date. I hope they never change the rooms, but perhaps less hardcore antique furniture, something that's a little more function over form. The desk was small and felt delicate to work on. Wifi worked fine, though did not have any video calls from here. Would be willing to stay again, but would probably check out another locations first.

Numerous guests simply insensitive to implications of staying in an older courtyard building. Those 2am laughing sessions with friends and you dragging your suitcase across the patio at 5:30 to make your flight are absolutely heard by everyone with a courtyard-facing room. My sleep was unfortunately interrupted a lot. TV was small and hard to work.

Absolutely everything . Courtyard was my favorite!

I loved everything . Thus was my second time to stay and I would definitely recommend it to my friends .

There was no hot water to take a shower and was trying to get ready for a wedding.

I will be back. The room and courtage were clean.The empraise and order were friendly. Very historic. And oh so charmingly southern, this is a ruby in a diamond mine. Enjoy your stay as much as I did.

Nothing I loved it

Historically charming hotel in an excellent downtown location with friendly staff, but very few amenities. I wanted to give the Malaga Inn 3 stars, while my wife wanted to give it 5, so we settled on 4 stars. I chose this hotel because of its historic charm and prime location, and it definitely delivered on both. The staff was friendly and helpful whenever we were able to find them. We stayed for two nights in one of the Historic King Bed Suites. The room was clean, comfortable, and true to the hotel’s historic character. We did run into a few issues during our stay. We had no hot water the second morning, so showers were not an option. One of the TVs did not work—the living room TV displayed a message to call a 1-800 number to activate the cable box—though the bedroom TV worked fine. It wasn’t a major problem since we didn’t spend much time in the room. Because the hotel is very old, the floors creak quite a bit, and sound travels easily. It often sounded like the guests above us were in the room with us. We heard footsteps well past 11:30 PM both nights, and again from 5:00 AM to 6:30 AM on our second morning. We could also hear coughing throughout the night. The website could use updating. It says each room has a coffee maker, but ours did not. Coffee appeared in the lobby after 7:00 AM, but there were only four cups available for the entire hotel and one pump carafe. I got a cup at 7:10, but when I returned at 7:30, the cups were gone, the coffee was empty, and no staff were around. My wife says coffee drinkers can get grumpy without their morning coffee! A few other notes: the elevators were still out of service, and the ice machine was broken. Staff did offer bagged ice if you could locate someone. My wife would definitely stay here again because of the historic charm. I’d probably try another historic hotel in Mobile next time for a few more amenities. If charm matters more to you than amenities or a quiet room, you’ll likely enjoy staying here. Location: We always felt safe, and it’s within walking distance of everything downtown. Rooms: Clean, comfortable, historically charming, with Wi-Fi, TV, soap, shampoo, and conditioner. Limited additional amenities. Nearby Activities: Close to all downtown attractions. Safety: Always felt safe, even walking around at night. Walkability: Excellent—close to everything. Food & Drinks: None onsite. Noteworthy Details: Beautiful historic property with lots of character. Expect older construction, creaky floors, and doors that may stick. Friendly staff, but the front desk is not always staffed.

Walking in, the area was very nice with even nicer staff. It has a New Orleans feel with a gorgeous court yard. The court yard smell of spices and flowers. The room was very quite even with construction going on.

No fridge.

The courtyard was a beautiful place to relax and well as the beautiful room
