SkySea Holidays CITY CENTER SUITES Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to SkySea Holidays CITY CENTER SUITES on Calle Ramón Franquelo, you immediately get that “I’m in the thick of things” feeling. This four-star property sits right in the heart of Málaga Centro, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better — there’s a reason it scores a 9.5 for location. The building itself has that modern apartment-style vibe that works perfectly when you want more space than a typical hotel room offers.
The Neighborhood Advantage
What I love about this spot is how you can literally walk everywhere that matters in Málaga. The Picasso Museum is maybe a five-minute stroll, and you’re equally close to the cathedral and those narrow streets of the old town where the best tapas bars hide. But here’s what’s really smart about the location — you’re close enough to walk to Calle Larios for shopping, yet far enough from the main tourist drag that you won’t hear street performers at midnight. The couples who stay here seem to get this balance, which probably explains why they rate it so highly for romantic getaways.
Suite Life
The suites themselves feel more like a temporary apartment than a hotel stay, which is exactly what you want for anything longer than a quick weekend. Each unit comes with a proper kitchen setup — not just a mini-fridge and microwave situation, but actual cooking space where you can prep breakfast or store those amazing olives and jamón you’ll inevitably buy at the Mercado Central. The living areas give you room to spread out, and after walking around Málaga all day, you’ll appreciate having a real sofa to collapse on.
Practical Perks
One thing that surprised me was how quiet it stays despite being so central. The windows do a good job blocking street noise, which matters since Spanish cities don’t exactly wind down early. The building feels well-maintained, and the staff actually knows the neighborhood — they’ll point you toward that little restaurant around the corner that doesn’t look like much but serves incredible pescaíto frito. There’s also decent parking nearby, though honestly, you won’t need a car much once you’re settled in.
Why Guests Love It
Look, an 8.6 rating tells you most of what you need to know, but what really stands out is how this place works for different types of travelers. Couples love the romantic atmosphere of the old city right outside their door, but families appreciate having the extra space and kitchen facilities. You’re paying for location here — prime real estate in Málaga Centro — but you’re getting apartment-style comfort that makes the investment worthwhile. When you can walk to the Alcazaba in ten minutes and still have a proper place to unwind afterward, that’s pretty much the sweet spot for exploring this city.
Savvy travelers reserve a hotel in Malaga before car-free nights turn Calle Larios into an illuminated runway.

Reviews of SkySea Holidays CITY CENTER SUITES
Andrea from Croatia (9/10)
I stayed with my family and friends, so there was space for seven of us. We can walk to anything because the apartment is located in the center of Malaga. There is a food store pretty close to the apartment. The beds are incredibly comfy, and the overall flat is quite tidy and roomy. The kitchen has everything you need.

Cristina from Denmark (9/10)
The apartments were quite nice, new, and well equipped. Moreover, it was a central location in Málaga with plenty of options for dinning places. All apartments had a small balcony.

Sara from United Kingdom (8/10)

Afvc from Portugal (8/10)
There are plenty of windows, the house has a lot of light coming in.
It's very well located, the central air conditioning allows for a perfect temperature at tall times, there were a lot of kitchen appliances for cooking such as pot, pans, toaster, water heater, coffee machine and others.
Pilar was very nice and gave us a lot of recommendations. There was also a very helpful guide for places to visit, where to put the trash out, and all sorts of questions one might have regarding the apartment and city.
Since the building is secured with cameras, there's also a greater feeling of security when leaving the apartment.Kasia from United Kingdom (8/10)
Location was spot on.
