A Prime Location on the Mediterranean Coast
The Gran Hotel Miramar enjoys a privileged location in Málaga’s exclusive La Caleta district, directly overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. With La Malagueta Beach just steps away and the charming old town within walking distance, the hotel combines coastal beauty with cultural richness.
For destination weddings, it’s especially convenient, Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is only 20 minutes away, offering direct flights from across Europe and beyond. This easy access makes it ideal for international guests and couples looking for a sophisticated yet accessible wedding location in Spain.
A Historic Landmark Full of Character
Originally inaugurated in 1926 by King Alfonso XIII, the Gran Hotel Miramar is more than just a luxury hotel—it’s a piece of Spanish history. Following an extensive restoration, it reopened as a grand five-star hotel that blends historical architecture with contemporary elegance.
This unique heritage creates an incredible atmosphere for weddings. Think elegant facades, intricate Moorish-inspired details, sweeping staircases, marble corridors, and palm-shaded gardens. Every corner of the hotel exudes charm and sophistication, offering endless opportunities for stunning wedding photography and storytelling.
Indoor and Outdoor Wedding Spaces
One of the best aspects of hosting a Gran Hotel Miramar wedding is the variety of beautiful event spaces available. Whether you envision a lavish celebration or a more intimate gathering, the hotel offers versatile options tailored to your vision.
1. The Royal Ballroom (Salón Real)
An opulent space for large wedding receptions, the Royal Ballroom features high ceilings, chandeliers, elegant décor, and space for dining and dancing. It’s perfect for a black-tie evening affair.
2. Mediterranean Gardens
The hotel’s tranquil gardens are ideal for a romantic outdoor ceremony or cocktail reception. Surrounded by palms, fountains, and Mediterranean blooms, this area creates a natural, photogenic setting—especially in the golden light of sunset.
3. Rooftop Terrace
With breathtaking views over the sea and the Málaga skyline, the rooftop terrace is an exceptional space for stylish receptions, sunset ceremonies, or even next-day brunches.

Want your ceremony with sand between your toes? The Gran Hotel Miramar’s beachfront location gives you the option to incorporate the coast into your wedding celebration or your photo session.

From a Photographer & Videographer’s Perspective
From a creative standpoint, I have nothing but praise for the venue. Every aspect of a Gran Hotel Miramar wedding is visually stunning, from the historic architecture and lush gardens to the reflections of sunset over the sea. Whether you’re planning an elegant indoor ceremony or a relaxed beachside shoot, the hotel provides the perfect light, space, and mood for capturing real, emotional moments.
As a local wedding photographer and videographer based near Marbella, I know this venue well. I understand the best angles, the lighting throughout the day, and the hidden corners that offer the most intimate photo opportunities. My goal is to deliver a visual story of your day that feels timeless, beautiful, and uniquely yours.

This means your wedding becomes more than just a day—it becomes an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
