Meliá Already Has an Opening Date for Piqué's Hotel in Málaga

The opening date for the hotel known as Piqué's hotel has been set. Meliá will open this five-star establishment, which will feature the company's avant-garde luxury brand ME, on October 10th, as confirmed by the chain and as reported on the group's website where it is already being marketed. This marks the opening of the main hotel project in the capital of the Costa del Sol for this year, which the president and CEO of Meliá himself considers will "be a benchmark of luxury, modernity, and prosperity on the Costa del Sol."

The hotel, located on the former site of the Andalucía cinema on Victoria Street, next to Plaza de la Merced, with views of the sea and the monumental complex of the Alcazaba, will be the city's fifth five-star hotel and represents the introduction of the Meliá brand to the area. It makes a grand entrance operating under the ME by Meliá brand, one of its most iconic and well-recognized names in the luxury segment. "It combines architecture, design, art, and gastronomy to provide its guests with an authentic experience connected to the essence of the destination," the company details. It is worth remembering that last week marked the beginning of this flagship brand's journey on the Costa del Sol with the opening of ME Marbella, following an investment of twenty million euros.

The establishment, promoted by the company Kerad EB, belonging to an investment group behind which is the former FC Barcelona footballer Gerard Piqué, is housed in a building with a ground floor and mezzanine, five additional floors, and an attic, with a height of over 35 meters. The hotel will have 105 double rooms, in addition to eight suites and 15 junior suites. During the presentation, Escarrer expressed his conviction that "in this city, ME by Meliá will find its natural space to successfully meet the demands of the new experiential luxury traveler."

These are the rooms that this hotel will offer, which includes eight suites and 15 junior suites.

On the company's website, ME by Meliá is already marketed as "a place where art, culture, gastronomy, and music merge with the spirit of the south," inviting travelers to "connect with your most creative side to the vibrant rhythm of the city. A five-star hotel in the heart of Málaga, surrounded by architectural heritage and major museums." It also highlights that "its rooftop, with an infinity pool and stunning panoramic views of the Costa del Sol, will captivate you. It is the ideal setting to enjoy spectacular views of the city." The establishment is described as "modern" and inspired "by the most innovative scene in Europe, making design, culture, and lifestyle its distinction."

The new ME by Meliá also features a convention center, an à la carte restaurant, and a café. The chain notes that on the first floor, the hotel will have a convention center and a gym, while the next four floors will house the rooms: a total of 128. On the attic floor, there will be a large heated outdoor infinity pool with a solarium, bar, and a restaurant that aims to become the best rooftop in the city of Málaga. "These spaces will be the epicenter of the social life and cultural agenda of the hotel, thus reflecting the nature of the ME by Meliá brand: a reflection of the latest trends and artistic creations from the local scene," they detail.

For the first opening weekend of this establishment, the most basic price is 617 euros per night, without breakfast, which goes up to 693 euros for the stay in the so-called 'Extra ME', and rises to 978 euros in the 'Extra ME+ Junior Suite' with a view of La Alcazaba. The highest rate for this opening day is for the 'Ultimate ME+ Panoramic Suite' room, with a 'king' size bed, and a rate of 2,327 euros per night.
