The hotel has a really breathtaking vore, the staff members at the reception are very nice and helpful. The breakfast has a variety of options with a choice of hot plates to order. The bed very comfortable and the rooftop swimming pool very relaxing.

All lovely. Immaculate hotel. Very helpful staff. Liked the pool. Easy walk down the scenic path into central Malaga, but too steep and too far to walk back after a night out. You need a taxi.,

Beayutiful hotel, lovely weekend.
The hotel is beautiful with friendly staff and great food, Cava with breakfast is a lovely touch. The hotel is high up so there can be a lot of walking but there is a bus up and down to the city centre, The Castle, Alcazabar, the cathedral and the city in general are beautiful. Would recommend the hotel and Malaga in general.

This hotel is at the top of Malaga, directly under the castle. It's out of the way of all the city noise. There is a very steep walking path to downtown. We walked to the beach and restaurants. Getting to the main shopping area is a little out of the way. The walk back uphill was not reasonable so we took a taxi. They seem short on staff in the restaurant and breakfast area. The waitstaff that was on hand couldn't keep up. They were very friendly however.

Awesome Views
Lovely Parador at the top of the hill with the most gorgeous view! Carla received us warmly and was very helpful as well. Our room was of a good size, bright, clean, and with an awesome view, looking over the port of Malaga. Breakfast was good and plentiful. Lots of parking around the premises We didn’t have dinner at their restaurant. I would recommend this hotel for the views, but be aware that to go down and up from where all the recommended tapa bars and restaurants are located, will take you some time to public-park and walk to them.

Great location, shame about the rooms
This is not a cheap stay, you pay for the location and view and rooms are spacious. However they are quite simple with bare floors and very thin walls so you can hear alot of banging and scraping. The clientele when we were there were older couples so the noise did reduce at night. Also they did accommodate a room change request for this reason, although the second room suffered the same problem. It is just the construction of the building. The breakfast and dinner are good and the service was excellent. However, overall, the value was not great. The location is not great if you want other dining or shopping options.
