The Holiday Inn Express Malaga is the nearest hotel to Malaga Airport. You can reach it in 5 minutes on the Express “A” Bus. You can also take an airport taxi there. However, bear in mind there’s a minimum charge for taxis from the airport, so the fare could seem quite expensive.

2. Hotels in Malaga City

If you don’t mind staying a little further away, there are some great hotels in Malaga City. In our opinion, Malaga is one of Europe’s most underrated cities. It’s only a 15-minute taxi ride to/from the Airport or about 10 minutes by train. But many people only visit the Costa Del Sol (Fuengirola, Marbella, Estepona) and never the City. We personally visit Malaga every few weeks because of the fantastic food, ambience and culture. So if you have a night to spare, we highly recommend staying in the heart of Malaga. We recommend the following hotels in Malaga City.
