Malaga Inn

A True Southern Gem – Timeless Charm and Unforgettable Hospitality ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you're looking for more than just a place to stay — if you're craving an experience — the Malaga Inn in Mobile, Alabama, is an absolute must. Nestled in the heart of historic downtown, this privately owned boutique hotel feels like stepping back in time, yet with all the comfort today's traveler could ask for. Originally built in 1862, the rooms are full of soul and Southern elegance: polished wood floors, antique furnishings, Charleston-style four-poster rice beds, and sparkling crystal chandeliers. Many rooms overlook the inn’s enchanting courtyard — a peaceful oasis with old-world charm that invites you to slow down and savor the moment. What makes Malaga truly stand out, however, is the warmth of its service. The inn is currently owned and operated by the grandson of the original founder, Mayme Sinclair, and you can feel that family legacy in every detail. Hospitality here is not just a standard — it’s a heartfelt tradition. Add to that its perfect location just off I-10, and you’ve got the ideal base for exploring Mobile or simply relaxing in refined Southern style. Don't miss the chance to stay somewhere this rare — the Malaga Inn is one of those places that stays with you long after you’ve left.

This is a beautiful, very old hotel with wrought-iron railings, wooden floors, and a shady courtyard that is well kept right in the middle of the city of Mobile. This be a very nice romantic getaway for any couple that just wants to relax. The rates were very reasonable as well. I would love to stay here again and would recommend this hotel to anyone needing a quite, comfortable place to stay in Mobile.

It's an old hotel, but the rooms and property are well kept. It's sort of like a look back in the 1800's South. I felt as though I was in the Gone With Wind when I used the stairs to access my room. I was waiting for Rhett Butler to come down. It really goes back into it's own time. Very cool. There was a lovely woman checking me in at the front desk. She took the time to explain the surroundings and also had a a steel listing well known restaurants nearby. Very helpful and welcoming.

An older hotel w/ a good Vibe. It's a little quirky, but as close to downtown as you need to be. Lots and lots of restaurants and such is well within walking distance. Our room, 207 was of a decent size with two very comfortable beds. The staff is just great. Very easy going and eager to please!

We were given the James bond room suite which was fun. It was a very large and comfortable space with a lovely balcony overlooking the beautiful courtyard. The initial front of house staff seemed rather abrupt, however it didn't affect our stay. I did feel that some of the decor looked rather tired but I want the reiterate that is was comfortable and more than adequate for our needs. Would stay again if in the area.
