Self-Access Centre
An excellent facility created to help our students practise and revise individually identified areas of weakness or specific need.

Free Internet is available throughout the entire campus.

The quality and reasonable prices of the freshly prepared food in our restaurant result in most of our students and administrative staff eating in the school. There is always a range of meat, fish and vegetarian dishes. For groups we are able to quote prices for half or full board based on accommodation in Club Hispánico and meals in the cafeteria.
Living Facilities
The 95 on-suite bedrooms of the Club Hispánico provide an outstanding opportunity to benefit from a «campus» lifestyle and the top-of-the-range Executive rooms and Executive Studios are probably amongst the best non-hotel accommodation offered by language schools in Spain. The 24-hour staffed reception provides total security. The Student Lounge also provides a 24-hour facility where students can buy drinks and snacks, watch films on a video screen, use wi-fi or fixed internet access and generally network with the other students.

Activities Programme
In addition to our program to learn Spanish, with a minimum of 2 full-time employees in our activities department and other teachers who help when needed, there is always plenty to do. Every weekend there are cultural excursions. On the campus students can take cooking lessons, attend cultural talks and film shows and enjoy dance shows sometimes. In Malaga and its surroundings they can visit the many museums and monuments for which the city is famous, go on tapas tours and visit nearby «pueblos blancos» (white- washed villages).
Location
The school has an enviable location in an up-market residential area just 10 minutes walk from the Mediterranean beaches of Pedregalejo and 15 minutes local bus ride from the town centre, we belive it is a great Spanish school to learn Spanish in Spain. Malaga International Airport (now mainland Spain’s 3rd largest airport) is just 20 minutes drive from the school.
QUALITY Control and Recognition
All the services and facilities offered by our Spanish school Malaca Instituto, from the tuition to the student activities programme, are subject to regular independent inspection and we can thus show external and independent proof of our high quality.
