EA7JOU: I was only there for one day, but the room was very nice, quite clean and well-maintained. I didn't use the dining room because I wanted to see as much of the town as possible and try some local dishes. You have to be careful and let them know you won't be using the dining room so they're aware of it, as they tried to charge me for a meal even though I hadn't been there. My mother used the dining room and noted it down for my room, but I didn't have any problem clarifying this.

Walking the "Most Dangerous Hike in the World" 🧗♂️🇪🇸
#bucketlistdestinations Taking a break from the Málaga beaches for something with a bit more adrenaline! Caminito del Rey used to have the reputation of being the most dangerous hiking trail on the planet. They completely rebuilt the path a few years ago so it is 100% safe now, but walking on a wooden boardwalk pinned to a sheer cliff 100 meters above a river still gets your heart rate up! Here are the key things to know if you go: 📍 Desfiladero de los Gaitanes: This is the massive gorge you walk through. The rock walls go straight up, and the pathway just clings to the side. Pro tip: Keep a very tight grip on your phone when taking photos, because if you drop it, it's gone forever. 📱⬇️ 🌉 The Suspension Bridge: Right near the end of the hike, you have to cross a metal grid bridge that bounces slightly in the wind. You can literally see the river rushing through the floor grates beneath your boots. 💧 El Chorro: This is the area where the trail officially ends. After spending 2 hours sweating on the cliff face in the Spanish sun, the nearby lakes are the perfect place to cool down. Would you cross a swinging suspension bridge 100 meters in the air, or would you stay safely on the ground? 🌉👀 Let me know in the comments! 👇 #caminitodelrey #andalusia #malaga #naturalwonders #travel2026 #myitinerary #thingstodo #travelhacks

What people are saying about Antequera
Picasso Museum Málaga
If you are into arts this museum is for you. Many are original Picasso paintings. Not a big museum but it will take time to go around especially when reading about every piece. Although there was a set time to enter and we were late by 10 minutes there is actually a queue so you are really not missing anything! The museum is very close to a cathedral and it is literally the centre of the city. Not to be missed
Anonymous userAlhambra
Beautiful place, rich with history and an abundance of instagrammable shots for the social media moguls. I would advise booking tickets in advance as they sell out and make sure you include the Nasrid palace to it and immerse yourself in the history of these wonderful moorish buildings.
Jordanst92Royal Alcázar of Seville
It’s very historic attraction, and we really enjoyed seeing the luxury tiles artwork. The gardens are beautiful. Have got a lot of home decor ideas, the souvenir shops is great too.
