Malaga Inn Mobile Alabama


December 15, 2018

Downtown Mobile at the Malaga Inn

It was after 2pm be the time we walked back from Corner 251 so we could check into the hotel. I had us two suites reserved - suite 201 and 119. The Malaga Inn is a historic property that has hosted celebrities and debutantes for decades. There are pictures on the lobby walls of Michael Landon, Merv Griffin, Ronald Reagan and more. Mobile has quite the storied past and the Malaga Inn played a big part in that history.

Suite 119 was the bigger room with two double beds in the bedroom and a separate living room facing Church Street. Our favorite, though, was 201 with its balcony overlooking Church Street. We love the Thomas Jefferson windows that open to seven feet and let you walk out like a door to the balcony.

There is also a great center courtyard used often for parties and weddings. A fountain runs in the center. Breakfast and evening cocktails are served in the rear left corner suite which opens to a patio facing east. This hotel is a very nice property and a must-see for history buffs. We took a few photos in the room and in the lobby by the Christmas tree and then headed over to the Mardi Gras Museum which was only one block over.

Mobile Mardi Gras Party 2025

2025 was a great year for my Mobile Mardi Gras Weekend Party.  The weather was chilly, but not too bad. I had rooms 10 and 11 in the Fort Conde Inn. April and Dan got a room in the main house thanks to Wes having some cancellations from his group (Wes has a girlfriend now, Jenny; and we are waiting to hear of an engagement). My two rooms were full with Momma and Jimmy, Troy and Polly and Kevin. Olivia and Zoey stayed Saturday night in April and Dan's room. Brendan and Kayla showed up briefly Saturday and Sunday, but they had a ball in Daphne Saturday night, so they stayed with Kayla's high school girlfriends. Kelsy, Matt and their kids could not make it this year. They had just gotten back from a Carnival Cruise out of New Orleans, so Matt needed to get back for work. I do not think anyone else showed up Friday, Saturday or Sunday - I think I'll invite fewer people next year. Maybe just to people who have actually made an appearance over the years. Today is Fat Tuesday and ...

Mobile Alabama with April

December 15, 2018 Celebrating my Sister's Birthday in Mobile, Alabama My sister, April, turned ### this year and I offered to celebrate with her in Mobile, Alabama. I promised good food, lots of drinks and ghost hunting. She was on-the-fence until ghost hunting. Read all about our maraudering (spelled wrong but sounds better this way) and pillaging around downtown Mobile over the next few pages including Dauphin's, Dauphin Street, Battle House, Malaga Inn, Cigar Bar, seancing (yes, more misspelling with intent) and more. Don't worry about my spelling and grammar please. It is far better than how Siri or Google Maps pronounce Mobile, Alabama.
